- Normani's POV - 

- HOSPITAL, Sunday, 11:00 AM - 

- 1 DAY LEFT - 

I can feel pain in my body.

My headache getting even worse.

And my mind messing up.

But all I have to do is fight, for him, and for everyone.

I only have this day, before I pass away.

I feel like I want my family to see me, one last time.

I reach out to my phone, and called my family.

As the phone rings, Ashton comes to me.

"Who are you calling?" He raises a brow, and smirks.

"I'm calling my family." Someone picks up the phone.

Ashton smiles and walks away.

"Hello?" My sister Marissa, speaks.

"Marissa, can you tell mom and dad to come here before I...you know..." My raspy voice gets worse.

"Okay, anything for you, sis." She hangs up.

As I place down the phone, I wait patiently for them.

- 11:45 AM - 

When I heard knocking, I knew it was them.

And when Ashton opens the door, I was right.

I smile as I see them.

"Hi Normani." Mom comes to me, and hugs me.

Her tears soak my oufit.

Dad also begins to tear up, knowing I'll be gone by tomorrow.

Marissa, denies that she cries, even if she is.

"Normani, dear, I love you since the day you were born." Mom sniffles, and wipes her tears with her sleeve.

"But when I heard you were dying, we felt disheartened." Another tear falls down from her eye.

She comes to me and hugs me tighter.

"Mom, you don't have to cry. I'll still be here, but not physically." I hug back, trying to comfort her despite the pain.

"I'll always love you guys." I smile and shed a tear as well.

I immediately felt their warm hug onto my body.

The warmth made me feel loved.

We spend the moments, before I disappear.
