The doctor comes again to Danny's house with the results of Jane's blood tests. All they sit together to talk about it. They are very apprehensive about it. They want to know what is going on with Jane and what can they do for her.


John: Ok Doc. Tell us. What are the results?

Doc: As I thought. Jane, your leukemia is back.

They are very chocked and sad but Jane isn't. She is hard and isn't sad about the news.

Jane: Congrats Doc!

Danny: Jane, we are trying to help you.

Jane: Do you know what he said to me once? That I wouldn't live longer. So, here I am!

John: Yes but you are not old. Maybe you shouldn't live till now, but you are still young. Why don't you want to fight against it?

Jane: My all life I did it. I am tired.

Danny: Hey, hold on! Doc, what should we do now?

Doc: So, now we...

Jane stands up and interupt the doctor:

Jane: I'm not going to do this. Not anymore. You can find a way, choose it! But I am tired.

She goes away. They stay in the livingroom, asking themself what to do with her.

Doc: So, as I said, first chemotherapy. At the same time we can put his name in the transplant list and maybe find a mother with a baby so that we can do this with the... stem cels. But I don't think that this can be the cure. Maybe give us more time with her, but the cure...So,  I will talk to her about the treatment ok?

He stands up and goes to her bedroom. He opens the door and close it. She is in her bed looking to him.

Jane: What are you doing here?

Doc: Stop. Stop being like a baby. Like your sister! You have to fight. The people outside, they love you. They want to fight for your life! Ok, we have some good possibilities...

Jane: For what?

The doctor is angry.

Doc: Ja, don't be like this... They are your friends. At this moment, they want to fight more than you! Jesus!

Jane: I don't want it!

Doc: Why???

Jane: YOU know why.

Doc: Please, don't. I am already feeling like a trash. Don't make me feel worse. I did everything what I could for you and for your family.

Jane: For my family, not for me. And you know that. You've made your choise. So get out of here.

Doc: I want to talk to you about the chemotherapy.

Jane: I alredy know how it is. So, out!

Doc: Jane...

She stands up and open the door. The doctor goes out and she close the door very hard.

Danny: Not successfully?

Doc: More or less. So I already worked on her treatment's papers in the clinic. She can start tomorrow morning. Ok? I have to go back to Germany.

John: Should I bring you to airport?

Doc: No, no, thanks. I will take a taxi. So, See you soon, and give me information about her ok?

Danny: Ok, Thank you for coming.

John closes the door.

John: So, what now? The end of the world! Fucking life...

Danny: John, please don't!

John: you know what? After all these problems I still have to bring to end my college. I am still not ready.

Danny: So, do it! I will take care about her! Do it! This is the right thing to do. We will get it, again. Ok?

John: I will go out. I'm done with all these...

Danny: You know what? Me too. We still have a lot of problems... But I hope that everything will be fine again. So, go out. I will stay here and talk to her. Tomorrow I'll bring her to the clinic. So you can sleep late in the morning.

John kisses her on her forehead and goes out and Danny goes to Jane.

Danny: May I come in?

Jane: Sure. Come to me.

Danny: So, can you tell me now, what is going on? I've never seen you like this.

Jane: It seems like I am not thankfull or that I don't deserve this second change right? But it isn't. I know that it isn't going to work. Not forever. It can give me more time but... not the cure. I am fine about it. But, what is about John? and you? My sister? About...forget it.

Danny: Jane, You should think about you first. We are trying to help you. Because we want, we need you by our side. And if it get more time but not the cure, we have to live within. How much time do we have? Two, three years?? No matter! I want to fight for you. To stay with you. No matter how much time, one week three months, ten years! I don't care! I want you here. With us! Now!

Jane: John is not satified...

Danny: He loves you Jane! Do you think that I am satisfied now? without Renfro?

Jane: I'm sorry.

Danny: By the way, whar is about John? Why are you not with him? What is wrong with him? Or you both?

Jane: Danny... I've never loved him. I like him. Maybe loved, but like a brother... that's all. But he didn't get it. I wish that he could find someone who loves him. Like you loved Renfro.

Both smiles.

Danny: He will. For sure. I'm here to take care of him. Ok? Don't worry.

Jane: Promise me.

Danny: Promise you? Ok I...

Jane: No, promise me that you'll make him happy, please.

Danny: Well...

Jane looks at her with tears in eyes. She feels very guilty about him.

Danny: Ok, ok. I promise you but we don't need to talk about it now. Right? First we will take care about your heathy ok?

Jane: Ok.

They hugs each other.
