Winter always has the best sunsets.
I opened the sliding door before stepping out onto the back porch and sitting down on the steps.
I took a cigarette from the pack that was in my pocket and put it between my lips. I lit the cigarette before taking a long drag of it.
I heard the door behind me open with footsteps soon following. I turned and saw him.
I smiled at him before turning back to look at the sunset.
He sat down next to me and and placed a hand on my knee, gently caressing it.
"What did the doctor say?"
Suddenly remembering, this memory in the making soon turned sour.
"Are you sure you wanna know?" I looked at him with a nervous expression.
"Of course. Your problems are my problems." He replied with a small smile.

I looked up at him and he continued.
"We're going to get through this. You are going to survive this. Do you understand?"
The tears started flowing like a broken dam as I threw my arms around him and buried my face in his chest.
"Yes."
