We start a story and you continue in the comments where the last person left off. I provide a setting, characters and the start of a plot. Together we create a story that would ordinarily be unimaginable.
NUMBER your posts to keep these more organize. Be advised some stories contain coarse language.
KATE (27) walks along a path in the central park, her hand intertwines with her boyfriends, JACOB (30). They take in the pristine winter scene as they walk and banter. It's for a winter day,
Jacob runs his hand along Kate's back, guiding her to take a seat on the cold bench.
The silence is peaceful until Kate realizes that Jacob is visibly distraught. Her expression drops as he leans forward, hands clamped together.
She rubs her hand up his back, the mood is solemn, "Are you alright?"
Jacob takes a deep breath, "...."

Kate looks at him, her unblinking eyes full of trust and silent support.
'I... I went to the hospital yesterday after I dropped you off...' he stammered, wiping sweaty palms on his pants.

'The doctor said...............', he whispered while tears roll down his eyes.
'Its cancer Kate...Its bad', he muttered with a clinged fist and teary eyes.

"No, I am not alright" he says as he raises his eyes to Kate. " I have something I need to tell you, but I don' t know how to tell you.."
He looks down and takes a deep Breathe "Kate" he stammers " I just..." he looks down again and sighs
1." I've been meaning to tell you this for a while, but I know how you react to this kind of topic"
Of topic: looks like a lot of people don't even read the post...lol, and just comment generic stuff
My story continues after @calatorulmiop's story, as I would like to go with the cancer story
1.
Cancer? Kate had to remember to breathe. She closed her eyes and deliberately exhaled. She tried to look calm but tears rolled down involuntarily. Jacob was her life. They only had to look into each other's eyes to understand what the other feels. They had known each other for more than a decade and dated for almost two years. They both knew they were in it for keeps.
Jacob quietly watched Kate’s reaction, giving her time to take in the news. The shock and the pain on her face was too much for him. He threw his hands around her and hugged her. The only thought in his mind was that he couldn't leave her alone. They dreamed a dream - of marriage and a beautiful family together.
“It’s going to be fine,” Jacob broke the silence. Wiping her tears away, he looked into her eyes, saying, “Everything will be fine. I promise.”
“It’s bladder cancer!” Jacob went on to tell her how he went to the doctor because he had hematuria. Over the last few days, he had undergone several tests: cystoscopy, biopsy, imaging tests etc. The reports came back today with the diagnosis: Stage 3 cancer.
“We’re in this together,” she broke her silence for the first time. He nodded his head, his love for her overpowering all other emotions. “I’m not going anywhere!”
She started to say what she was really feeling - You’re my life and I cannot imagine life without you. Why didn't you tell me anything? - but at that point, she realized that Jacob didn't need all that. Time to get practical and go to work. No stone will be left unturned. She was going to do everything. She felt responsible for seeing him through this.
Determined, she got up, held his hand and they walked to the car in complete silence.

2 Taken aback, she replies, "You ruined it, you ruined it! All that intense silence for this??? I thought you were gonna ask me to marry you! And hear I hear you babbling about pot that fights cancer?! What am I? Three?? I'm breakin up with ya, you sick mofo, go smoke all the pot you need. No use putting you into rehab for the third time. I got better ways to spend ma money. Bbye! tun-tun-ta!!!" Suddenly Jacob reaches out and grabs her firmly by the hand.
[hey no offence mate just my part of the story 😉]
None taken. Mine was a continuation of the comment before mine, he said he had cancer in that one, and she (as i wrote but maybe you didn't notice) was tryna make it seem less sad.
OMG I'm really sorry @lordmok I misread 'she' as 'he' and thought he had said all of that. I honestly apologise for ruining the type of continuation you wanted to bring to the story as I now realise it, and I mistook it to be something else. Sorry man my bad 😐 🤦🏻♂️😓
It's alright man, it happens.
