30 Day Writing Prompt Challenge: Day 2
"It's okay sis, I'm here for you. I won't leave you alone again so please--" her heart thumped wildly against her chest, panic rising as the other grew unresponsive. "Lucerne please say something, tell me you'll be okay. You said it yourself didn't you? You said that you'd grow healthier since you moved here. Please, you can fight it you can't leave me alone here!"
She lay in bed, breathing short and shallow breaths. Every one seemed weaker than the last, as if something were drawing out the air from her lungs. "I'm sorry...."
It was only two words but it cut straight into her heart. Her fingers slipped from her sister's and she stepped away from the bed. "No... I won't let you die you have to keep living!" Turning on her heel, she sprinted out the door, yelling behind her back. "I'm going to find a doctor! I promise I'll be back real soon!!"
The bedridden girl reached out to the retreating figure, trying to muster up a few words, but did not have the strength within herself. Her hand fell limp onto the sheets.
