Liam's Pov:

Maya, my love watching me again. I can feel her eyes on me from the window. She’s worried, and it’s tearing me apart. The garden used to be where I felt strong. Now, it just shows and remind how weak I’ve become.

My hands, they used to be so steady. Now they tremble, even with the simplest tasks. I can see the worry in her eyes, thoughts, the sadness she’s trying to hide. It kills me that she’s seeing this, that she’s watching me fall apart. I keep laughing it off, making jokes about getting old. But inside, I’m terrified. I feel like I’m disappearing, and I don’t know how to stop it.

I don’t want her to see how scared I am. I don’t want her to carry this burden. So I keep pretending, keep laughing even though it feels so empty. I hope that we’ll get through this, somehow.

The seasons are changing, and so am I. I just talk to my doctor last time and said I have  an hour, day, week or month in my life and I'm not surprised about it, cuz I feel it and in this weak body as if i have a strong immune system to fight. But I have to believe that we’ll find a way, together.

Thank you sweetie's
