I lived in an amazing, peaceful world, some might call it utopian. so... why am I here?

You see, I had cancer and I knew this ever since I was old enough to understand. yes, I know, I lived in a paradise but there are always at least a few minor faults in a paradise, in this case, I was one of them.
While playing with my younger siblings, I fainted. when I woke up I was in my bed with my family standing at the edges and foot of my bed, sobbing. I looked around at them their eyes glistening with tears. I noticed my best bud weeping near my waist. I put my hand on his head and said "goodbye, Sebastian." he burst out crying and hugged me. and said goodbye to me too. Then I looked at all of my family and said "goodbye" for the last time.
