"I'm here to see Streber." I told the lady at the front desk.
"Alright, relationship to the patient?"
"I'm his boyfriend."
"Kevin, right?"
I nodded. "That's me."
Streber was still in a coma. I was unsure if they were able to hear me, but I visited them every day after work and talked to them, sometimes even sung to them.
He always told me I had a beautiful singing voice.
It was Christmas Eve. It didn't feel right doing any Christmas activities without Streber there by my side.
I made my way to his hospital room. I hadn't had a full-night's sleep since the night before Halloween. I couldn't stop thinking about Streber.
I was terrified, but the doctors told me that he was getting better, and they were optimistic about his recovery.
I walked through the door, seeing an unconscious Streber, missing his left forearm, IV cords attached to his right arm.
Over time, it became easier to see. Because I was filled with more hope of his recovery with each passing day.
I sat in a chair beside the bed. "Hey, Streber...I'm sorry, work at the Candy Club ran a bit late today..." I held onto his remaining hand. "I love you so much, Streb...more than anything else..."
I smiled warmly. I softly began singing one of my favorite songs.
"Feeling sick of myself
Think I'll try to be someone else
Can't be hard to paint a person
In my head, create a version
The parallel
Pull my head out the sand
Try as hard as I can
Guess I must be satisfactory
You said you love me exactly the way I am
And you know I find it hard to understand
Pay a visit to the doctor 'cause I have
A sweet tooth for you
I'm wide awake
The sugar went straight to my brain
Feel like a kid, I double tap
My chest with my fist
I like you
Say it back
Say it back
Never had a cavity
Never had nobody as sweet as you
Smooth around the edges, good as new
Gently into it and every rendezvous
Got myself a brand new pain
It's like you do
I know every line and curve of your tattoos
A sweet tooth for you
I'm wide awake
The sugar went straight to my brain
Feel like a kid, I double tap
My chest with my fist
I like you
Say it back
Say it back
Sweet tooth for you
My dreamin' space
It's filled with scribbles, tore the page
Decipher them with coloured paint
Repair the stitches in my veins
Sweet tooth for you
My honeydew
I'll see you in my garden soon
Beneath the skin, it's cardiac
A safety pin
I like you
Say it back"
I opened my eyes after I finished the song to see a smiling face right in front of me. Holding my hand tightly. My eyes widened as a smile formed on my face.
