Forgive

Perhaps they have forgotten about her.

Inside the white-walled room the blue-eyed heroine sighed in defeat. She had officially confirmed that they have forgotten about her. She glanced at the wide open window of the room; the weather seemed to have been mocking her. There were no dark clouds to sympathize her, no droplets of rain pouring down just to help her cope with this feeling inside of her and worst of all the sun shone its brightest.

She never thought that she'd grow to hate such brightness. Wasn't she supposed to be the Joy and the Laughter? Wasn't she supposed to be Sugar. What happened to that bubbly girl Townsville loved so much? I guess, losing your powers and being confined inside this hospital bed for the rest of your life does that to even the bubbliest of people doesn't it?

She sighed once again.

She understood perfectly well why they still haven't visited her. They were busy. I guess, having a two superheroes and a scientist for a family meant being busy enough to forget one member of them.

Her face darkened.

They have forgotten about her.

Her own family.

Was it because she's useless to them now?

That she can no longer help them save the city anymore. Is she no longer important?

Bitter tears began to pour. If rain refused to do it that didn't mean she can't.

A sudden knock on the door startled her. She quickly wiped her face. She can't let a nurse see her cry, she can't let anyone see her cry.

"You have a visitor."

Your heart leapt. It had been a while since she heard those words. No matter their reason may be she'll willingly forgive them. She missed her family so much.

Her brows furrowed when they didn't enter immediately.

Since when did they ever need acknowledgement before they could enter?

But nevertheless she told them to come in.

Her eyes landed on someone she did not expect to visit her. She was slightly disappointed that it wasn't one of her family members.

"What brings you her Butch?"

Dark green eyes gazed down on her frail form. He probably could see she was very ill.

"I-I just came to visit."

Her eyes landed on the object he was carrying on his hand. She wasn;t sure if she should ask him what that was but thankfully he answered for her.

"It's for you," he extended it to her as he slowly walked closer. " I-I heard that today's your birthday, so I decided to drop by."

Her eyes grew wide; she glanced at the calendar hanging on the wall.

November 18.

How could she forget her own birthday?

"Thanks," she accepted it with a smile.

She motioned him to sit down.

"It been awhile since the last time I've seen you, seem well," she stated glancing at him.

His eyes looked away in shame.

"I'm sorry ab-"

"it's okay Butch. I forgave you for a long time."

"but-"

"it wasn't your fault."

They grew silent.

His green eyes focused on everything but her.

He felt so ashamed.

"If only I had been faster, this woul—"

"Bad things happen Butch."

"But that doesn't mean you deserve this."

"there's nothing we can do about it Butch," her voice was calm despite the painful conversation they were having and that made him feel even far more worse than he should.

"If only—"

She sighed.

She reached for his shoulder making the man before her look at her in the eye.

"Saying 'if only' never changes anything. We can't change the past Butch. No matter how much we badly want it to."

"I know but—"

"No buts Butch. It wasn't your fault," she slightly startled him when she clapped her hands together and grinned. "Now why don't you sing me a happy birthday and stop getting all depressed? I haven't had a visitor in months and yet here you are moping."

"I don't mope," he denied before he joined her infectious grin.

I apologize for not updating. I'm still recovering for the surgery. And I know this isn't much it doesn't even make sense and this seemed unfinished but due to the fact that I can rarely get my hands on my own laptop, I can't write anything decent.

The hospital walls is killing me, if the microbes doesn't get me first boredom will. Gah!

Anyway, I'll just mark this Complete, seeing as I can't write much anymore.

Till next time (if there will be one)
