Katie's Angel Read Online Free PDF

didn’t have to worry about dying on him in between Chemo visits, and the parents of those kids took that from him. I JUST WANT TO BE LEFT ALONE!!”
    Katie turned and walked off and into the store before her mom could say anything else. She could feel everyone staring at her, and she knew she just made a scene, but Katie was so tired of everything that was going on that she didn’t care who saw her or what they thought.
    She was looking at a pair of pants when she heard whispering, as she looked up she saw a lady who she thought looked familiar, was looking at her and pointing her out to another lady. She was so tired of being the one that everyone felt so sorry for. Why did they have to stay in this stupid little town where everyone was such hypocrites when it came to doing the right thing? She couldn’t wait to graduate high school so that she could leave this place and never come back.
    She turned to walk away from the shirts and saw her mom standing there looking at her. “Do you feel better now?” mom asked.
    Katie turned so that mom could not see the shame on her face, “I’m sorry mom. I shouldn’t have said all of that. It was rude and wrong of me. I am just so tired of seeing the same people who turned their backs on our family when we needed them the most, acting like they are here to help us now.”
    “This is why you need to talk about what is going on in your head and your heart sweetie. If you do not talk to anyone it will continue to build up and you will become a completely unhappy person,” mom said as she put her hand on Katie’s’ shoulder.
    “I just really don’t want to talk about it mom. It hurts too much without talking about it, so I can’t imagine how much it would hurt if I did talk about it.”
    Katie’s mom knew how she felt. It hurts so much when she didn’t talk about Jackson, and it hurt even more when she talked about him, but it always made her feel better in the end. It seems kind of weird, however if you thought about it long enough it made perfect sense.
    “Honey, we don’t have to talk about it if you do not want to, but you cannot keep going to the park and avoiding your friends. You have to deal with this before it gets to you and you don’t know what to do next. Jackson would not want us to continue to be sad like this,” mom said as she hugged Katie close.
    Katie knew her mom was right but she just couldn’t let this go like it was nothing. But she did not really want to continue this conversation with her mom. Ok mom I will talk to you and dad when I need to. I just don’t want you to push me to talk. If I say I don’t want to can we agree to just leave it at that?” Katie asked her mom.
    Katie’s mom nodded her head. “We can agree to that.  I will try to be a little less pushy when it comes to getting you to talk to me.”
    “Thanks mom. I will try to talk a little more when I need to. Now can we get back to enjoying our day at the mall, please?”
    “Sure lets go get you some new shoes. I know a girl can always use a new pair of shoes or two,” mom said with a wink of her eye.
    They finished off their shopping day by getting a pair of new tennis shoes each, along with two pairs of flip flops as well. When they left the mall they were already hungry again, but they knew they should wait for dad to get home.
    “Thanks mom for a fun afternoon. I think when we get home I am going to go to the park to see who is there if you don’t mind,” Katie said.
    “That is fine with me honey. Just make sure you are home in time for dinner. We are going to have BLT’s tonight.”
    “Yum that sounds good. I wouldn’t miss that for anything,” Katie said rubbing her growling stomach. “I will be right on time for dinner.”
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    Chapter 7
    Katie got up early to go to visit Jackson before her lunch date. She wasn’t sure if she would get to go later and she did not want to miss a day of talking to him. The last few
