i take his hands in mine.
"i will be by your side."
"ash.. if i-"
"don't say it.."
"if i die.. i want you to move on."
i could feel tears slipping down my face.
"you deserve to be happy."
"b-being with you makes me happy."
"i-i know, but there will come a time where i won't be here to make you happy, baby."
i squeeze my eyes shut and feel his hand move to my cheek.
