*Martin*

This boy is.... God! way too stubborn. I reached out for the paper and read it..... What?
The telephone rang bringing me out of my daze,
"Sammy hospital, Martin Carl speaking....
Yes.....
Okay we'll be coming for it now,
Thank you"
Now over to... Oh God! I have to stop that boy, i reached over to my phone and dialled Bella's twin"
"Yes, Harry i need your help, Leo is about to commit suicide please stop him" i ran to the elevator and press one. I quickly called the nurses and told them to prepare Bella for the transplant.

*Harry*
Now what? Bella is unconscious and my best friend wants to sacrifice himself for her. I rushed to my motorcycle, started the engine and zoomed off to the hospital, i called Martin back to ask where Leo might be but was directed to his voicemail.
With speed as fast as light... okay am exaggerating.... I sped as i called Dave for help.
Soon i heard siren sounds behind me..... We can take care of that later, we have more life or death pressing issues to be solved first.
I dialled Leo's number as he picked i thundered,
"Leo, what the hell do you think you are doing"
"Take care of her" was the simple answer i got before he cut the line. I cornered into the street as my phone vibrated..... Martin
"Please go and stop Leo" he said with urgency.
"what are you guys doing over there!" i snapped..
"we are at Royal care hospital, we got a heart!... I have to go now,by the way he is on the roof"
I parked in front of the hospital not caring to switch off the engine i jumped and removed my helmet,
"hey!" a police officer shouted as he ran after me two other patrol cars behind him....seriously!
"this is an emergency" i dashed into the building, pushing a young couple who were walking to the elevator, i entered and pressed the roof button praying that i wasn't late. As the elevator opened i half ran, half jogged the stairs and opened the door... There he was, standing beside the billboard at the edge of the roof. I sighed as he turned to look at me,
"Leo" like reflex his hand holding a gun moved to the side of his head... How the hell did he get a gun!
"Don't come any closer"
"Leo calm down" i took a step closer.
"Harry, if you make one more move, I'll blow my brains out and scar you with that memory so stay back!" .....okay.. that is a gruesome sight i never want to see in my life.
"Leo, drop the gun"
"And why should i?"
"Bella is safe now"
"How?"
"She's in the theatre, she'll soon be operated"
"yes, i told Martin to do so, they're waiting for me"
"no, the heart is from another hospital"
"that's part of the plan" he shrugged
"then why would he send me to stop you"

"maybe so he wouldn't feel guilty of not trying to stop me, but you and i know that when i make a decision, i stand by it"
....sigh... Does this look like a scene from a tragic movie or what? Unfortunately i'm not so good at words..
He turned to back me and dropped his hand.
"you know i was just looking at the world before i die, you think God will forgive me for killing myself for the woman i love"
Woman? Since when did my twin become a woman... Strange..
"Taking your life is against God's command"
He scoffed, "that won't stop me anyway"
Silence, pure silence
"ha.. The world is so beautiful, isn't it" he inhaled deeply and sighed.
"yes, and that is why you can't go anywhere"
He ignored me and glanced at his watch.
"it's time"
"What is time" i looked at him as panic rose in me.
He raised the gun to his head and closed his eyes.
"Leo, no!" i shouted and to stop him.

...BANG!
the gun sounded and i froze looking at him. His eyes now open was glassy with unshed tears, the gun fell out his hand and he fell with it.
No.. No.. No! This is not happening! Leo... just committed suicide right before my eyes.
A severe ache squeezed my heart as my eyes blurred with tears....
This did not happen.
