Would you promise me?

Miyeon POV-

I continue to run and don't dare look back. Bad enough I kicked someone, but it was also a member of EXO. I stop to catch my breath. Man, running this much is probably my new record. Thump, thump, thump. I can hear my heart pound against my chest as it throbs in pain. I mentally scold myself. 'Why am I so stupid? Aish, Miyeon! You're not allowed to run for as long and as far as you did!'

I pull my hair in fustration and sigh. RING! RING! I quickly open my bag, and look at the caller ID. Huh? Mum? I answer my phone, and the first thing she says is;
"MIYEON! Where are you? We need to leave for your appointment. I'm outside, so hurry up."
I mentally scoff, and reply, "Hey mum, yeah, I'm fine Nope, I'm not lacking any oxygen and my breathing isn't uneven in the slightest." So yeah, that was just a tiny bit sarcastic, but definitely got my mum's attention.
"A-a-are you okay honey? Wait a second, I'll be right there!" She says, obviously panicking.
And, this is why I don't like updating my mum on my condition, she's overprotective. "No! I'm fine! Really." I quickly add in, hoping she doesn't jump over our school gates or something. I mean, they ARE mum's, so you never can be too sure.
I hear her sigh in relief over the phone, and then a small chuckle.
"Okay, okay, I get it. But seriously, where are you?"

I look up and see that I'm standing in front of the office. Slowly, I walk to the office and tell my mum that I'll be there in 2 minutes, before hanging up.

Before entering, I try to calm myself down. Relax, relax. The office isn't crowded at all, it's just that the teachers are a little... intimidating.

Our school's office is bigger and grander than most other schools. We have a massive chandelier hanging from the ceiling, red leather sofas and chairs, and grand, old, dark wooden tables that have been engraved with very intricate detailing.

I scan around the room, and look at the main office. A middle-aged lady sits there, and taps her pen against her desk. I take a peek at her name badge. Ms. Kang.
"E-e-excuse me." I say, but she continues to stare blankly at her computer screen.
I straighten myself and repeat, "Excuse me, Ms Kang," trying to sound as confident as I possible can.

She stops tapping her pen, and looks at me. I think a good way to put it, is that she doesn't seem very happy to see me.
"Yes? How may I help you?" She replies, sounding uninterested and bored.

It may be weird, but I am actually glad she isn't being very nice. Well, she could've been politer. Quite a few teachers know of my condition, and since they do, they treat me as if I'm a kid, that doesn't understand anything. They are trying to be nice, but they're too nice to the point where I feel inferior.

She looks at me, with no expression.
"I have an appointment today," I start, "and my mum is waiting for me outside, in the car park. Here's my note." I hand her a folded piece of paper.

She seems to doubt me, and hesitantly takes it. She unfolds it and skims through the content written inside. Ms Kang then looks over her shoulder, outside the window, and can see my mum standing, leaning against her car. It's kind of hard to miss a lady with, dark, long hair, and pink dip-dye. Oh, and I forgot to mention, she's also waving her hands around like a maniac, trying to get our attention.

I inwardly sigh, and place my hand on my forehead. At least she's as joyful as always. A smile slowly makes its way onto my lips. 'As long as she's happy.'

After a while, Ms Kang finally says; "Okay, you can go." She gets up and holds open the door for me. I quickly bow, and rush out of the office.

As soon as I step out, I breathe in and out, then continue to make my way to my mum.

When I get to her, she slings one of her arms around my shoulder.
"How are you feeling sweetheart?" She looks concerned. Ah, about what happened on the phone. I give her a small, reassuring smile, and reply, "Good, in fact, couldn't be better. We stroll along, and make our way to the car, and leave for the doctors.

I then go on and tell her about my day. I tell her everything. Well, excluding the part where I met EXO, and kicked Kai in the shin.

After about 20 minutes, we finally reach the doctors.

Author POV-

Miyeon and her mum walk into the hospital. As Miyeon's condition is a little different to other patients, she gets priority. A nurse calls both of them up, and leads them to the doctor. She bows, and leaves.

Miyeon's mum knocks on the door before walking in. Miyeon looks to the ground and interwines her fingers. 'It's okay. I can do it, he's.' just going to give me my results from the MRI scan, and tests.' She thinks to herself.

She looks down to the ground and walks in before taking a seat.

"So, Dr Choi," Miyeon's mum starts nervously, "how did Miyeon's results turn out? How's her condition?"
He looks up at Miyeon's mum, then sighs and avoids eye contact with Miyeon.

"I'm sorry, Ms Jung," he starts to rumble through a pile of files, before handing one to her. The continues, "It's gotten worse and has spread through out her body. I-I'm so s-sorry." He says and lowers his gaze.

Both look at him shocked, and the happiness that was one present, drains from their face.

Miyeon POV-

"It's gotten worse and has spread through out her body. I-I'm so s-sorry." Dr Choi says. No, that's impossible. Until recently, they said I was getting better.

"Impossible." I whisper. My hands start to shake, and my knees feel weak.
"You said I was getting better." My voice starts to tremble. He looks up and stares blankly at the ceiling.
"Yeah, it was." He replies, hardly even making it out as a whisper.

I start to feel rage consume me. First they say I was getting a lot better, and now they're telling me that it's gotten worse, and spread through out the body.

"Dr Choi," I say darkly, and he looks at me for a brief second, before looking down again, "am I going to die?"
