"Ethan! Don't go. Please don't leave me." I sobbed.
"I'm not going anywhere. I'm just resting for a while." He tried to assure me but deep down I knew the ugly truth.
"Ethan don't close your eyes. Look at me. See I wore the dress you got for me." I tried my best to make him stay awake.
"Zee you look beautiful.. I..I.." He couldn't finish his sentence as he coughed rigorously and his breathing became shallow.
"I'll call the doctor. Just right stay here. Don't move, okay? I'll be back". I didn't get the chance to leave the room because a hand held my wrist, firmly. Even though he's in such a terrible condition his grip was too strong.
"Don't. Stay, please." He pleaded, softly.
"No, please. Don't go! Lemme go I'll call the doctor. You'll be fine." I begged.
"Shh zee-bear! Come here." He shushed me, while patting at the empty space on the bed.
Without arguing further, I climbed on the bed and snuggled closer to him. I held onto him real tight, fearing he would disappear. His fingers stroked my hair. My eyelids were getting heavy from all the crying and fatigue. I wanted to sleep. Maybe, just for a couple of minutes, I could rest.
I closed my eyes and felt my body getting relaxed but my eyes jerked open as soon as his fingers slowed down. I knew something was wrong. I began frantically checking his pulse. It was dropping slowly.
