Jessie was still waiting on the results of her treatment. She and Sam had decided to get married in a month. She and Winnie were picking out Jessie's wedding dress. Jessie had tried on four dresses.

"Ready?" Jessie called from the dressing room.

"Yeah." Jessie came out wearing a backless sleeveless silk dress. "You look beautiful." "That's definitely the one."

"I think so to." "I love it."

"Sam will to."

"I just hope we get a few months of a happy marriage, before I die."

"Stop that." "You're not gonna die."

"I don't want to but I feel I'm going to."

"You don't know anything yet."

Later that day Jessie had flown back to Atlanta. She was all moved into Sam's house and was unpacking some boxes. Her phone rang.

Later that night Sam had just gotten back to his room in Las Vegas. It was around nine o'clock at night. Sam's video chat started ringing. He pressed the button to connect. Jessie popped up on the screen. Right away Sam could tell she'd been crying.

"What's wrong?" He asked

"It didn't take." She said tearfully.

"Are they sure?"

"Yes." "It didn't take at all."

"We can try another treatment."

"That was the last treatment I could try." "I'll fight for as long as I can to stay with you."

"I'm gonna figure something out."

"I know you don't want me to die." "I don't want to either, but there's nothing to figure out." "I'm dying."

"No." He said with tears in his eyes.
