"Don't scare me, Vin. What's wrong? Spit it the fuck out."

Vincent cracks his fingers, just like he always does when he's nervous or anxious about something. Its a habit of his since he was young.

"I-" he gulps "I found a doctor; a very good one, he said there's a solution..for my-" he looks away "Cancer."

It sinks in, my mind comprehends everything and when it does i can't help myself but pull my brother into a tight brotherly hug "Vin, that's fucking great."

"Yeah..but," i pull away, frowning.

"But what?"

"The doctor is in London, so i have to move there to get treated and i don't know for how long i'm going to stay there, maybe months..maybe years."

My big smile fades away, and i pull away from him. Shit.

Its for his health, for his treatment. I can't stop him, but how the hell am i going to live a life without my brother next to me? My family, the man who was by my side since i was born, he raised me. There was not one day where i didn't see him since the day i came to life, now i'm going to have to go months..maybe years without seeing him.

I can't be selfish, i can't prevent him from going. Of course i won't. As long as he lives, as long as he has a chance to see another day, its all i want.

I'm still going to be sad about the fact that he has to go overseas.

"When?"

"In a week." my head snaps to look at him "I'm taking Love with me."

"Fuck," i wipe my face with both of my hands "I mean-" i look at him again "As long as you get to be okay. Even though its going to kill me to let you go thousands of miles away." i admit.

Vincent eyes widen at the confession. I never spit my feelings out to anyone, i never did. Only to Mea. So its a surprise for him to hear me say that.

"We'll be in touch, Navin. Everyday, just like we always do. The difference is we're not going to see eachother for a while, you can get through it."

"Yeah no shit, if you think i won't call you everyday..Think again."

He cackles, patting my bicep "We'll be okay."

"I know."

***

Another phone call, the same fucking number. I know its a scam, i know i shouldn't pick up, but i can't help myself.

The chances that my parents are out there kills me as much as it angers me. I would never forgive them, but i'm so fucking curious. I haven't even told Vincent about this yet, only Mea. Its that fucked up.
