"Good to know that my secret weapon is working right." She said with a smirk on her face as she knew that he was joking and she got a little bit more serious. "The CD I got has a story behind it, and no it's not that I came here and nicked it from my cousin's store because I know he won't care." She knew she had to put that reason for it aside. "You just have to figure the reason out." After that she smirked a little bit and wondered if he would figure it out as she got out the CD from her purse.

"I'll remember to hide it from you then." She said with a smirk on her face before she moved on to the meaning of the CD. "Well, it's to help other people who have heart defects. There are a lot of secrets that I hide, and well, that's life." After she said this she gave him a small smile glad that he was willing to listen to her.

"if you hide it than how am i suppose to take it from you?" he groaned with a little laugh afterwards. giving a smirk he couldnt really understand what the point was but he understood what it meant to have a illness. "well pass me one...i'll buy one" as he walked over and stood beside Essie

"That's the point." She said with the smirk still on her face, and she knew that she would have to explain heart defects to him. "Heart defects in most cases are a mutation that happens before someone is born, and that means that we have it from day one. But doctors and researches have found some ways that they can let us play the sports and do physical activity if they know what type of defect it is." She said this as she grabbed one and handed it to him.

taking the CD Luke couldnt help what she meant... "us play? what do you mean us?" he asked with a raised eyebrow not understanding the concept of the word 'us'. he knew about what she was talkingabout but was just confused on the word

Essie laughed a little bit knowing who she meant by it, but she would have to tell him anyways. "Me and the other people with heart defects." That was all she was willing to say on that since he was one of the few that didn't need to feel that emotion that she felt when she heard that it was worse than they had thought and all of that.

She nodded and smiled a little bit and she knew that she wasn't the only one, but few people knew how bad the doctors truly thought it was at that moment. "I know that it's just the physical and emotional pain I go through I just..." She started to cry not being able to help it and she tried not to show her tears at all.

biting his lip he looked at her. he wasnt the best guy for comforting someone, he was kinda bad at it but with her crying he didnt just want to stand there and watch. he waved towards him and warpped his arms gently around her "its alright..."

Essie started to calm down a little bit, and let the tears that she had in her eyes fall down her face to help get rid of the pain that she felt suddenly come out of her, and she finally said. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to do that at all and I'm sorry if I made you feel awkward." That was the truth, and she just hoped that he accepted that and moved on.

At this she laughed a little bit and said. "Is it the tears that caused you to change your shirt or the fact that I had cooties?" It was pretty funny at that moment that he had come up with something funny right at that moment.

"well it was the tears...now its the cooties" he shivered. joking around of course like he always did. he was glad to get her laughing because it meant that part of her was forgetting why she had started in the first place

She knew that in the back of her mind the memory would always be there, but she also knew taht she got a lot of support from her friends and family. "Yeah, and eww!" She let go on him and backed away and started to laugh. "Now I have boy cooties!" This was a thing that most of the kids were going in Kansas when she was in elementary school and it seemed that her school hadn't been the only one.
