Aurora stared into the mirror. She looked ill. There was no point trying to hide it when her body was paler than ever, her eyes were red, and her muscles were twitching. It almost felt like she was going to have a stoke today at anytime. She had just arrived home from school after attempting the mathematics' exam that went terrible.
How come she looked so ill in just a few hours? She was just fine and kicking in the morning! She stepped out of her room in search of her father to visit the hospital, trying to avoid the sight of her mother. What if she thinks she's having a cold again and takes her to the hospital only to find out about her glioblastoma?
"Aurora!" Her mother called her from the kitchen counter. "Why do you look so pale? Come here!" She added in concern.
Aurora stood still, trying not to look behind towards her mother.
"D-Dad!" She called her father loudly and nervously.
