Chapter 2:Part 1

A knock on my door had woken me up. I sat up, before sleepily saying afaint come in.

"Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to youColleen. Happy birthday to you. " Lillian came in singing.

I couldn't help but smile. Although my mom isn't well, she's always bymy side. Through good and bad. She's my best friend.

"Awww, thank you." I said to her, hugging her.

"You deserve it." she smiled hugging me back. We sat there for amoment. "Okay. Come on. We're going out. We have to get you readyfor tonight.” she said confusing me.

"What's happening tonight?" I questioned her.

"Your birthday party of course. And you can't say no, because I've beenworking on it for days now." she said. "And who knows, you'll probablyreplace your mate!" she screeched. I smiled.

Finding my mate would be a dream come true. But I don't want to hopetoo much. You never know what kind of mate you could get. Buthopefully my mate will love and cherish me, forever and always.

"Okay, we can go. But wait I need to shower and tend to mom.” I saidlaughing. I don't know why but I feel quite happy today.

I got out of bed as Lillian said she had work to do. I jumped into theshower under the hot running water. When I was done showering anddressing, I walked into mom's room with a bowl of food, ready to feedher.

I sat by her side as I shook her awake lightly. Her eyes fluttered open asshe smiled towards me. "Happy birthday, Angel.” she smiled. Thosewords had such an effect on me, that I myself couldn't help but cry allthe time. No matter how bad things got with her, she always told meshe loved me, wished me happy birthday and gave me pet names."Thank you mom." I said gratefully. "It's breakfast mom, you need toeat, please?” I said. I helped her to sit up and the I slowly blew on thefood making it cool enough for her to eat.

After I finished with mom. I gave her, her medicine and told her I wasgoing out. She simply said be careful and have a nice party. I smiledwalking out of her room.

A knock echoed through the house as I collected my purse. I walked tothe door, and Lillian stood outside anxiously and impatiently.

"Ready? okay let's go.” she pulled my arm not giving me a chance toanswer. We got to her car and I buckled my seat belt. She drove off intothe streets towards my worst enemy. The mall.

It had been 2 hour since we got here and I had bought enough. My feetwere aching and a headache was coming along. "Can we go now?" Iquestioned my shop-aholic friend.

"Yes, yes were done now quit your whining.." we got to the car and wedrove off to my house. Lillian pulled into the driveway.

"You Need to sleep enough and then in three hours get ready, I'll pickyou up at six, how does that sound?" she asked me. I nodded onacceptance and I walked inside my house, shutting the door behind me.I walked up to mom's room, and shook her awake, asking I'd sheneeded anything. She simply asked for water and I had gave it to her.Once I was done there I headed to my bedroom. I dropped theshopping bags into the bedroom’s wooden floor and dragged my feetto my bed flopping into it.

Wow, I can't believe I'm eighteen. I can replace my mate, get a family anddo things. Wow. I shifted a bit higher getting to my pillow and smiled.Looking at the ceiling I began to wonder. What if my mate rejects mebecause they think bad of my mom? No, I won't let that happen. I'dchoose my mom over my mate anyway, because she's been my lifesupport. Even now, No matter how sick she is.

I continued to think and think and think. And my questions weregetting to no end. Slowly my eyes began to shut and open, not beingable to keep them open, I finally fell asleep.

Yes! Chapter 2! hope you enjoyed it!
