coffee and cigarettes [winnysatang]

the greatest love.

days by days have passed since the incident that include erin. everyone has been living their life to the fullest with joy and happiness. jayden was appointed as the director of the campus where he teaches, emi managed to become one of the custom goods dealers in his town, fernan was able to open a private school filled only with students with disabilities, george was becoming more famous because of his work that had been promoted abroad, saint continued his father's business after his father died of an illness that was already impoverished.

warka ?

It's been 5 years since that incident, but warka still hasn't woken up from the coma. because of a fairly hard blow to the back of his head for the second time, the effect this time was quite complicated. because the blow on his head was right on the previous wound even the doctors almost gave up on treating him two years ago.

for now warka depends on assistive devices to keep him alive and lies in a hospital bed. a lot of equipment that was placed on warka's body to maintain his life. every day saint comes to visit and visit his lover, he never gets tired of treating and cleaning his lover's body every day. he also often talks to his lover who is in a coma on the hospital bed about his daily life.

today saint came to visit again with a cup of iced coffee that he brought every day when visiting warka. he smiled blandly as he walked towards the room where warka was being treated. when he pushed open the door of the room, there were several doctors and nurses there gathered around warka bed with some equipment ready with them. saint entered with anxiety when he saw the situation. when he wanted to approach the crowd of hospital workers, a strong hand pulled his arm from his side. he turned to the hand and found that jayden and emi were there with the one look on his face that he hated the most.

"is everything ready ?"

said a doctor who led them and was greeted with a nod from his subordinate. saint continues to rebel and shout to stop the hospital worker.

"what do you mean ? what do you want to do ? don't you dare touch him !"

he shouted stopping them. jayden pulled saint's body to face him. he tightly grasped both of the saint's slim arms while looking at his sweet face.

"saint, warka has been like this for 5 years. he has been fighting for a long time, he has been through a lot at a young age. don't you want his suffering to end ? saint, they say warka is a strong person, he continues to improve from time to time time. but every human has his own limit, and we can't force him to return when his brain stopped working months ago."

saint shed tears in an instant when he heard that warka's brain had stopped working for a long time and all this time the only thing that kept him breathing was the aid machine that had been faithfully accompanying him for the past months.

"what do you mean ? he often reacts when I tell him stories, his heartbeat often goes up and down quickly, sometimes his fingers move a little ! how could it be that his brain is dead ! you're all lying ! w hy do you want to separate me from him ? do you didn't want to see me happy ? do you hate me because of how arka's condition now ? jay, i'm sorry..... i regret every second of that day..... so please..... give me a chance to live with warka"

"but saint, warka is gone ! it's an artificial life that i asked them to create because i can't bear to see you every day like this ! do you know how heavy it is for me to let go of my biological younger brother ? i love him so much that i'm willing to give my life to him if that's not impossible. everyone understands your feelings. i know, we know, but it's time for you to let go of him, because you're still hanging on to the thread that's about to break."

saint fell to the floor, dropping his whole body and sobbing. his chest felt really tight, his thoughts were confused, his voice was hoarse because of his broken cries. his world felt increasingly dark and lonely when he heard the sound of a straight line from the machine and that meant warka was no longer in this world.
