Mike's POV.

"Just stay calm right now. The situation is getting worse. Her cerebrum isn't getting fine. It's just swelling and her body isn't coping up with this situation. We can't say anything now. She has to have that hope of living, or it might get too late." The doctor finished his rant and went after I nodded, holding back my tears which were threatening to spill out of my eyes.

It's almost a week now, since Sandra got hospitalized. Day by day, her condition is deteriorating, just because she doesn't want to live. The pain is always forcing her to think about death. And hence, she has given up on living.

But, I guess it's our love that's fighting back. The situation is out of control, but our love is acting like a glue here. The moment everything goes out of control, it's our love that brings Sandra back to normal condition. If it wasn't for 'us', Sandra would have given up a long back ago.

Just then, something hit my mind. My eyes widened in realization. I have to do it. I have to do it for her. That will definitely force her to think about living. Definitely!

After 2 hours.
Sandra's POV.

My eyes slowly crank open as pain seeps through my nerves. It's even tough to open eyes now. I am even scared to move my hand as I know that as soon as I do that, tremendous pain will be felt.

I opened my eyes fully, but I was immediately taken aback. There were pictures of Mike and me everywhere. The day we took our first picture together, to the recent cuddled up photo of us. They were all stuck to the 3 sides of walls in the whole room. I was left astounding.

The lights of the room were off and just candles were lit. There was this aroma of rose in the full room. Something felt really awesome.

Just then, my hands were intervened by a hard hand. A man's hand. In just a second, I realized it's Mike. I turned my face to the right but slowly. Soon, I saw his charming face. A wide grin was spread across his face.

"Sandra.." He trailed off. All the time, my eyes were constantly locked with his. They always gave me that feeling of protection. It has always felt like I was safe when Mike looked at me in that way.

Just then I saw that a heart had been made on the floor with roses and candles. And above it, were the words 'I Love You.'

"It's been a very sexy and romantic journey of our relationship till now and I can't ask for more

"It's been a very sexy and romantic journey of our relationship till now and I can't ask for more." He stopped for a second. Where was he taking this?

He then continued,"Meeting you was the best moment of my life till now. I never thought that u would end up meaning so much to me. It's 3 years and 2 months to our relationship till now. And all I can say is, this whole 3 years weren't enough to spend time with you. Actually, to be honest, this whole lifetime won't be enough to spend with you."

My face had a small grin. I love it when Mike says all these things. It makes me feel special. But, today, there was some target which Mike wanted to achieve. I could see that determination in his mind.

"Sandra..," He said,"I was a pure hater of love before I met you. I didn't believe in that shit. But look at me now. You have taken me to that place." He then kept my hand, which he was holding, on his heart. I could really feel his heartbeat. Calm and cool.

"This is the place where you will always be. But a part of it is missing, which you need to complete." I was now getting some thoughts, which send shivers down my spine.

It was then, when he did that thing, which I was probably waiting for the entire lifetime.

He got down on one knee, holding my one hand and said,"Let's continue this forever, building the perfect life and growing up old together. I wanna die of the disease called 'love' with you. I will be your knight in the shining armor, protecting you from every harmful thing that life throws your way. Sandra...."

"Yeah, Mike..." I said, my heartbeat racing.

"Will you marry me?"

My mouth hung open. Goosebumps covered my hand and fresh chills ran down my spine. The thing which I was dreading to hear from him since last 3 years, finally came.

I cleared my throat and said,"Yes Mike. I would be glad to make you my husband."

He jumped up high and screamed. Tears were formed in my eyes now. These were the happy ones.

He hugged me lightly and then kissed me with the softest and warmest kiss one could ever have.

He then again placed his hand on my hand and said,"I may not be the best photographer out there, but yeah, I can surely picture our future together. Even when we will be old and gray, I would be still holding your hands while sitting on the rocking chair. And to be honest, if I had a star for each time you crossed my mind, I would own a galaxy till now."

By now, tears had found their way down my cheeks. Happiness was flowing through my body and whatever pain I had, was gone in a fraction of second.

I said with a huge smile on my face,"Mike, the thing that you did today, was probably the best thing I have ever seen. Thanks for everything you have given me. I would prefer to stay in hell with you, rather than stay in heaven without you. I do wanna grow old with you."

He smiled and I could see he was emotional. He had always been that emotional guy from inside. That part of him just made him more adorable.

"So, I haven't brought any ring or something here, because we won't get married right now. We are too small for that. But, I am eagerly waiting to start my life again with you." He said.

"Sandra, you know in the coming 10 years, it will be me who will love you more than anything else in the world. And after those 10 years, there will be another girl, whom I will love the most. She will call you 'mommy'."

"Mikeeeee enough..I will die today itself. Don't make me more happy. I am gonna live for you. I am gonna come out of this mess and live for you." I said which resulted in a deep smile from him.

He got up and smiled. "What happened?" I asked. He scratched the back of his hair and said,"I am going to change the arrangement of letters. I am gonna put the letters 'U' and 'I' together."

He said and went out of the door. Just minutes later, I heard loud screeches from outside. They were all female screeches. I understood what happened. And then, all the nurses and support staff came to greet me. Behind all of them, I could see Mike leaning against the room door, smiling and getting emotional.

"Baby,.." I said in mind,"I am gonna give u pure love throughout my life. No one will ever give this kind of love to anyone. You deserve more love than this and I promise, I am gonna give u love, more than that u deserve."
