Sobbing softly on the couch, Zendaya wonders why she has to suffer so much. She's lost her Brother and now she's about to loose her Dad, she sits quietly looking sad. Sad? She's angry at God for wanting to make her life a living hell. She's the only child and the apple of her parents eyes and now she's about to lose one of them. Mrs Chloe Zendaya mom a woman in her early 40s,She had the kind of beauty that didn't demand attention yet somehow held it effortlessly.
She is extremely sad because she's not ready to loose the love of her life she sits besides Zendaya and places her hand on hers" I don't like you looking so sad he'll be fine" Zendaya argues softly " But mummy you heard the doctor if he doesn't have the surgery he'll he"ll she stutters, her mother trying to be optimistic" God will provide. She says that with tears in her eyes because she knows how broke they are.
Back at prudence hospital where Zendaya's father Mr Clinton was admitted he lay there with so much pain not only in his body but his heart too. His surgery cost about 10,000 dollars, where in heavens name is his family going to get that type of money from. The Clinton's They were a modest family not poor, but far from wealthy Life wasn't filled with luxuries, yet they never lacked the essentials.
But tragedy struck when Mr Clinton was diagnosed with brain tumor at first, it didn't seem like anything serious. He had been complaining about headaches sharp, persistent ones that painkillers couldn't fully ease. He brushed it off as stress from work. But then came the small changes. He forgot simple things, lost his train of thought mid-sentence.
One evening, everything changed. He suddenly collapsed or became disoriented, maybe even struggled to speak. Panic filled the house as the Mrs Clhloe rushed him to the hospital. After hours of waiting the doctor came in and he revealed scans had revealed a Brain Tumor, explaining that surgery was needed and it would be expensive. The word surgery echoed louder than anything else. On the way home, the silence in the car said everything, their lives had changed in a single day. On getting home that day the news was broken to Zendaya who was eating chocolate as she was a happy young girl on hearing it Zendaya immediately lost her spark she became moody all the time got serious anger issues developed hatred for everybody just wanted to be left alone.

Zendaya and her father are like Mac and cheese so close, now the thought of her loosing her best friend was clearly disheartening. She sits close to him and they talk about nothing in specific but everything in general. Mr Clinton always teases Zendaya and they were currently talking about a boy she liked. In a shy tone " Daddy stop". Laughing loudly " Is he like your boyfriend or something" he teases.
Answering immediately " No he's not I have a crush on him but that's all. You know I'm in no headspace for a relationship". They have a conversation for a while Mrs Chloe walks in looking so gloomy she just got rejected for her loan application but she doesn't tell them. " Mummy how'd it go?" " Mrs Chloe sighed "we'll talk about that later my Dear" At this point Zendaya knows she couldn't get the money and it was left for her to find any means possible to save her father's life.
She leaves the hospital with a heavy heart and a determine spirit. On the way home she ponders on how to raise such a huge amount of money for her dad's surgery.

In a concerned tone " What's wrong I don't like the way you're sounding. " The application of the loan failed, if I don't do something I'll loose my Dad". Yelling not too loudly "God forbid nothing will happen to your Dad he's such a good man". it was at that moment that Zendaya gets a call from her mom picking up the phone she hears her mum crying. With shaky hands " Mummy what it it?
