The girls, Oliver and I arrive at my grandparent’s house first. We go inside and the kids make a mad dash to the backdoor.

“You guys be careful and keep an eye on your brother girls” I say

“Ok momma” they answer back

I go back to the living room and give my grandma and grandpa a hug and kiss.

“How are you doing baby girl?” my grandpa asks

“I’m doing alright. We are leaving tomorrow for Vancouver. We are going to see the boys” I say

“That’s good sweetheart, you be safe now ya hear” grandpa says

“We always are grandpa” I say

---

We sit in silence for a few minutes. The only sound is that of the television. My grandma is the one who breaks the silence.

“Sweetie,.. grandpa and I need to talk to you about something” grandma says

“Ok what’s that?”

“Well grandpa had a heart attack a month ago and when we were in the hospital the doctor told us that grandpa is in congestive heart failure.” Grandma explains

I sit in silence, a blank stare on my face. I can feel the all too familiar stinging of my eyes and then the first tear escapes followed by the many more to come.

“That’s not all Cassie” my grandpa pipes up

“That’s perfect… just fucking perfect! What else is there?” I say

“Cassie the surgery they wanted to do…I…I refused. Not because I don’t want to get better but because well I’m old” he chuckles.

“But grandpa” I say before he cuts me off

“No listen being put under is more dangerous than the actual surgery itself. The doctor said there is a good chance I will not wake up if put under.” He explains

Just then my phone buzzed indicating that I got a text message. I excuse myself and go to the bathroom. I open the text and see that it is from Taylor.

Tay: Hey love my mom needs my help. So I can’t make it over

Me: That’s ok, I’ll see you tomorrow morning at he airport

Tay: OK I love you

Me: love you too

Just as I walk out of the bathroom I’m bombarded by Olivia.

“Momma Oliver got hurt!” she yells

I hurry and follow her to the backyard. I can see Oliver on the ground and Brynlie cradling him and a hand covering his forehead.

“What happened?” I holler

“Um We..we was jumping on the bouncy thing and Olli fell off the side” Olivia says

Just as I get to them I see it. I see Brynlie’s hand covered in blood. Oliver is whimpering but not fully crying. I yell for my grandpa and he quickly helps me get Oliver into the car. The girls are going to stay here with my grandma while I take Olli to the hospital.

---

We sit in the emergency room for six hours. Olli ended up with eight stitches, a broken arm and a mild concussion. My poor little man is so miserable. I can guarantee that his dad will not be too happy when we go to see them tomorrow.

“Are we ready to go Cass?” grandpa asks

“In just a minute. I have to sign discharge papers then we can leave. If you want to you can take Oliver out to the car and pull up to the front” I say

He does just that. I sign the papers, get Oliver’s sling and the aftercare instructions. I take my grandpa back home and pick up the girls. We head back to my dad’s house and prepare for tomorrow. When I get dinner fed to the kids they get baths and go to bed. I finally decide to give Niall a call back, as for Harry.. Well he’ll just have to wait.
