The look in my eyes was serious. I looked down again, feeling a bit uncomfortable. He turned the TV on again and turned away from me. I got up and looked at the clock. It was 8:30.

“I think I’m going to leave,” I said, getting up.

He looked up at me and opened the door. I felt as if he was mad at me. It wasn’t a great feeling at all, when he opened the front door. He walked out, too; he walked with me all the way home. We walked in total silence. When we got to my house, he hugged me good-bye but didn’t say a single word. I walked inside, kind of sad, thinking that I had done something wrong. I thought about the things he had just said. Do I like Jeremiah? I asked myself over and over, trying to see if my answers to those questions were all yes, but they weren’t. I didn’t know if I was just making the answers no or if they really were no. As I got to my room, there was a smell that reeked of a dead person. I hesitated to go in and then remembered Johnny was in there. There was throw-up all over the floor, and even spots of blood. I threw myself to the floor and picked him up. He felt so weak and not alive. I cried to him, “Johnny, what happened? Are you okay? Johnny, talk to me!”

He opened his eyes carefully and said, “I’m sorry I threw up on your carpet.” I smiled and held him close.

He coughed in my hands and threw himself back down.

“I don’t feel so good, Jenny,” he said, looking at me with his eyes so wide and weak.

“I know you don’t. And I’m sorry; I really am.”

My mom and dad hadn’t been so good anymore. She would leave constantly and come back home for more of her stuff. It got to the point where most of her clothes weren’t in her closet and the pictures of her in the hall were gone. My dad hadn’t been home either. He would leave the house constantly for hours and not come back. Henry and Katelyn noticed, but I don’t think they paid as much attention. We all barely talked. It was like my only sibling was Johnny, and now that he was sick, I felt as if I might be losing him. I really felt as though I needed to do something about this, take him to the hospital and tell somebody, anything to make sure he was going to be okay at the end of the day.
