Chapter 6 - Episode 6: Cancer Killed Liam

When I checked the wall clock, it was 7:03 p.m. Yeah, very late. I threw my sports bag on the wing chair. And walk to the kitchen door just to find food there.

I walked into the kitchen and started opening something around just fine, something to eat because I was very hungry.

A message alert sounded

[ Hey, Lefah. Are you there and free?]

That message was coming from Pikfred, and it was late and also hungry and busy looking for something to eat.

Hey, I am really sorry and busy now, Pikfred. I replied to him. And walk back with my food and eat.

[It is morning, and the clock says it's 10:34 a.m.]

I woke up late in the morning, because there was not anything like an alarm to wake me up. So, I overslept in the living room safa. So, it was mommy who walked in to wake me up by using the cushion to hit me up.

" Hey, hey, young man, wake up, it is morning. And why did you even sleep here last night, Lefah?

Hey, Mom. Good morning!

"Yeah, wake up and get to your room son."

Okay, mom. I will just come down.

" Hey, hey, young man. Will you come back for your things here?

Okay, mom. I will come back for them but, really exhausted for this mom.

"Hey, young man. Will you come back here?"

I am sorry mom, I will be back and take it, so just live it there, young lady, thank you and Love you mom.

" Hey, young man. Will you come back here now, before I call your dad for you?"

Lefah Sighs!

" Oh, my goodness, this boy is growing up with something different. Just look at him, Thank you mom. Just like that, and he thinks I am going to clear them because it is something I have been doing for him since childhood. Oh, no. I can't do this anymore. Just listen to him, "Thank you, mom". Like how? Oh no, this boy is coming up just like his dad. Yeah, just like father and like son.

[Daddy expounded when I left my room, and I overheard them]

"Oh, no, no, no, that's big no Haney. That little boy up there is really like you lady. Yeah, definitely Haney. Said Dad

" Me? said mom, and she looked like an eye-opener.

"Yeah, you Haney, you hear me right Haney.

"I'm done with this conservation now. Oh, my goodness". Said mom

[I walk into my living room, and they were still talking and shouting down there in the living room, and I think that was just an argument between them and I have never seen them fighting]

Lefah Sighs!

[When I get to my bedroom, I jump myself on my bed.]

Ding!

An altar message sounded.

[Hey, gently man. Are you there? Like I really miss you Lefah.]

Lefah Sighs!

Who is this? I am sleeping! Hm, guess who this message owner will be? Definitely, Pikfred. I straight my hand and pick up my cell phone on the end table just behind my bed.

Dings!

Another message follows

[Hey, how are you doing this morning?]

Yeah, Bro. I am here and am really sorry about yesterday. I went for football training, and I was exhausted chatting or talking, Pikfred. Hey, but I am free now, and we can talk as much as you want, Pikfred.

" Hey, don't worry about that, and I am really sorry too for worrying you late last night, Lefah."

Oh, don't worry about that, Pikfred.

Phone ringing!

[Hey man, how are you feeling today] Pikfred said it immediately.

Hey, am good and you, Pikfred?

[I am also doing great here, Lefah. Hey, am I really sorry, okay?]

Oh, that's fine Bro. And I am also sorry here, Pikfred.

[ Hey, no problem. You are also forgiving.]

Okay thanks

[And did you just say, you play football?]

Yeah, I really love playing American football. And it is my dream to become like Mr. Barry?

[ Oh, wow. And who is Mr. Barry.]

Oh, sorry, and I think you know him already.

[ No, no, no, no, Lefah. The name sounds familiar in my mind, but I can't remember.]

Okay, Mr. Barry is my football team coach.

[ Oh, nice. And why do you want to become like him, Lefah?]

Such a nice question to ask. Coach Barry was a player who ended his football career without a championship. His real name is Barry Sanders, and he was a player for the Detroit Lions in 1989-98, and why I want to become like him. Coach Barry Sanders was the most valuable player in 1997, two-time NFL offensive player of the year and I will be like him one day.

[Wow, this sounds great, and I hear of him, but I don't know him personally like you know him.]

Okay, he has been my football team coach for over three years now.

[ Woo. I also had this grandpa called John Harold Lambert, who was also an American former professional football player. The name I used to call him was Grandpa Lambert or Grandpa Jack. My Dad said a lot about him, but I don't remember it now.]

Oh, nice. I have also heard from him and his football career, but I don't know him personally like you know him and I will be happy to meet him one day.

[Oh, don't worry about that, Lefah. I will show you to him one day if you only want to see him.]

Oh okay, thank you.

[ No problem, Lefah. Hey, thank you for making me feel happy again.]

Don't worry about that, and I am always here to make you happy.

[ Okay, Lefah.]

Hey, Pikred. I want to know more about, Yeah, I mean, your life and am not asking about your name this time and am even used to calling you Pikred and am happy with that. But I want you to tell me more about your life.

Pikfred Sighs!

Why is there any problem? I am sorry for asking.

[Hey, don't worry about that, and I am used to my past now, Lefah.]

Oh, okay. I am ready for your story.

Pikfred Sighs! Again.

[Piered voice] I come from a very wealthy family. A family of two boys, my little brother and me. My little brother was called Liam. But something awful happened to Liam, and he died at the age of 5 years old. And the doctor said it was Lymphoma and Leukemia Cancer which killed my little brother, Liam.

These two cancers arise from immature cells that originate in the bone marrow and are intended to fully differentiate and mature into normal components of the immune system and the blood, respectively. And they also said that Lymphoblastic Leukemia Cancer most affects children like my little brother, LIAM!!!!!
