Billie: I really felt like an idiot for hating Charlie for the past few years.He was a wonderful person!! "Please don't worry about Adie... I promise I will take care of her.I love her and would never let anyone hurt her.If I'm honest with myself, I know that I only let her go because deep down inside I did know that you were the right man for her... I have dreamed of marrying this woman since I was 18.I often imagined how we would have children.Or how we sit in the garden while having some tea in the garden and our grandchildren play around us... And that one day in old age we will happily fall asleep in peace together and be buried next to each other... but that's just my dream Charlie... I know that a part of her loves me, but she loves you more... I will always be there for her.Whether as a best friend, like a brother or her future husband.But that's up to her... I am fine with everything as long as she is happy.Should she at some point fall in love with another man, then I'll be happy for her and let her go, as long as he is treating her right.But I'll always keep an eye on her.And if he just thinks about hurting her... then even God can't save him from myself!!" Charlie gave me a grinning smile and nodded in agreement. "And if you don't keep your promise or you hurt her... then I'll kick your ass from hell!!" said Charlie teasingly.We both had to laugh for a moment and were somehow surprised about it. 2 years ago we were enemies... and today? Today I did understand why she loved him... why she chose him... "Thank You, now that I know that she has you, I can go with a clear conscience," he said relieved and laid back on the bed exhausted. I didn't know what to answer... I had the thought that he was going to die always pushed out of my head. "Isn't there something we can do? I could talk to our doctors... or somebody in Europe, maybe..." "Please stop..." he interrupted me. "I know you only want to help me, but it wasn't easy to accept the whole thing. You help me the most when you take care of Adie... Billie, I can't take this anymore... please don't tell Adie. But life is just a torture for me right now. I have endless pain. I want... I want it to stop..."
