UNTIL THE END

Kenna’s POV (Point Of View)

I have the best life ever. One that probably everyone craves for. A carefree one.

My name is Kenna Joy. I graduated a week ago. I work as a part-time barrister at Starbucks.

I live with my mom (my aunt whom I address as a mom since then) in our ″fancy″ apartment. I use the word ″fancy″ because it is really really huge. It has 3 bedrooms. Mom converted 1 bedroom into a mini library because she loved reading. And so did I.

It was just the two of us. She didn’t marry her boyfriend. I remember him, his name was Jed.

My parents liked him, he’d come over to our place for lunch and dinner parties. They really liked him, a lot.

After my parents died, he decided to marry my aunt, and he didn’t want me to live with them. My aunt clearly decided against it.

He came over to our fancy apartment and told her that he wanted to be with her. But, my aunt preferred me over him.

That’s when I started addressing her as my MOM. So, its just mom and me since then.

Mom got me into one of the best schools and colleges in town. I guess she earned pretty well because she’d never compromise on anything.

She loved me and my best friend since second grade, Ally with all her heart.

I knew Ally ever since she moved into my primary school and we’ve been best friends since then. She was the total opposite of me. She never liked reading books.

But, that’s okay because opposites attract, right?

Right now, I was with Ally in a park across her home. I was going to spend the night at her place. We went to the cinema after my shift completed. It was an average movie. I’d prefer if it were a hard copy instead.

Nerd, that’s what Ally calls me.

We were on the trampoline, having the time of our lives. We haven’t been able to catch up for some time because of our finals and the graduation stuff.

Kids around us in the park kept glaring at us and were whispering to each other. Probably because we were too old to be on a trampoline? But I didn’t care, neither did Ally.

I didn’t have a perfect childhood because I’d remember my parents every single day. But my aunt made sure she gave me enough love and care and the best of everything, which meant the world to me.

MOM, I loved calling her MOM, and she’d smile with tears in her eyes and give me the biggest hug ever!

15 minutes later, we were still on the trampoline. My head was giddy with excitement and I felt the world blur past me. It was probably because of all the jumping on the trampoline or excitement. My head was getting really dizzy now.

And then I felt nothing.

Next thing I know, I’m in a hospital.
