MY HEART
It's the early morning of 21st of July and I'm sitting silently inside of this white room. I looked up to the clock hanging on a wall, it was almost 1am. Beside me, is a single bed with a small table on the other side where fresh flowers are displayed and fruits untouched. In the single bed is where lying an unconscious lady. Sleeping very well.
I'm imagining her as sleeping beauty where I'm her Prince Charming who's going to give her a kiss for her to be awake. But this is not a fairytale where happy endings always exist. Because THIS. IS. REALITY. Where only few people receives happy ending. Unfortunately I'm not one of those few.
As she sleeps, I am watching her intently. Memorizing every part of her face. Her hazel brown eyes that I love the most are full of glow and sparks. Her rosy cheeks that blushes more whenever I teased her. And her lips that are naturally pinkish even without make-up. But that was a month ago. That was when she's full of life and energy before. That was when she doesn't know yet that her sickness is starting to kill her. That was when she's not lying here now in this four cornered hospital room suffering from heart disease.
And it's shattering my heart into pieces seeing her in that awful condition. There were no more glows or sparks on her hazel brown eyes. Neither rosy cheeks nor pinkish lips. Paleness is all over in her beautiful face. A beautiful face now a picture of cheerless and weak Samantha.
Samantha is suffering from heart disease. Months ago she always had a hard time breathing. She thought it was just a simple asthma. But it gets worst and so they looked for a doctor. Doctor found out that there's a hole forming in Sam's heart, which makes it weak and can cause her death. Only a heart transplant can save her. But 'til now there's no heart donor. Sam is losing her hope to live.
A minute later, her eyelids slowly move then open. When she finally met my gaze a name automatically came out through her mouth.
"K--kerwin?" she said in a very soft and gentle voice.
I felt a tear fell from my right eye. I quickly wiped for it hoping she did not notice. I smiled at her, trying to hide the bitterness.
"Hey Sam. I'm very sorry. Did I wake you up? How do you feel? Do you want me to call the doctors?"
"N--no need Keevin. I--im, I'm so s--orry. I thought--"
"It's ok Sam. You don't need to apologize. I'm very used to it." I said cutting her words. Then I smile again. A fake one. Pathetic! How pathetic I am, pretending not hurt every time she opened and laid her eyes on me then mistakenly called me Kerwin, my twin brother.
Yeah, I have a twin brother. We're very close to each other. We're the best of buds. We have a lot of similarities and likes. But sadly one of those is to love the same girl. Yes, we love Samantha. I love Samantha so much that it breaks my heart. Of course, she loves me also. She loves me as her best friend. Just her BESTFRIEND. No more, no less. Because she's already truly, madly and deeply in love with my twin brother Kerwin. Not to Keevin, not to me. They both in love with each other. So what can I do? But don't get me wrong. I'm not mad at them. I love them both and I will not do anything that'll tear them apart.
