Rose
I don't know why my eyes opened. It could be the pattering of raindrops on the window or something, but suddenly I was wide awake. The fire was still burning in the fireplace and it was so warm and comfortable in here. Maybe a bit too warm. I lay silently and watched the fire dancing in the fireplace and this was literally the most peaceful I have felt in years. Like everything in this world was perfect.
Like I wasn't going to die in a few months.
I sighed and frankly, I just couldn't care any less if I live or die. I just needed this little life to be okay. And yes, if something was breaking my heart, that was the fact that I might not get to spend time with my child or build the future I was fighting so hard for. And more than anything, he will never know me. What will happen
