Lyle's POV
September 2020
My 2nd month in the Hospital. Still, machines attached to my body, helping me breathe. Live. But I can't speak properly.
But still, no improvements. 10% survival rate, that's what the doctor says. No one knows how much I want to get up. Hug my favorite person. Kiss her. Live my old life
Hana.
I miss you.
Every 4pm she visits me here in the hospital, sometimes happy, sometimes stressed. But, she always tells me everything.
She's not giving up, and so am I. 4pm arrives and I hear knocks on the door. Hana?
The door opens and revealed the most beautiful person I know. Hana, and Doctor Perez? with smiles on their faces.
"Guess what,love? There has been some kind of miracle!"She exclaims and approaches me, sat down and holds my hand tightly.
"W-what is...it?"I asked barely pronouncing every word. Still confused in what she was talking about. What kind of miracle?
"Your lungs showed positive reactions to the medications we gave you last week, we can now remove the ventilator off your body." The doctor explains, causing me to tear up. Hana kisses my hand and cries tears of joy.
The doctor called some nurses to assist him remove the tube inside my throat. It was removed and I had a little time having trouble breathing on my own
Hana smiled happily and hugged me tight. "I'm glad you're body is getting better."she whispers to me.
"M-me too" I replied caressing her hair. "Though we need to observe you, you'll be able to speak easily now." The doctor says and left us. I wish we can always be like this.
"I already called your parents love, and they're happy for you too" She let's go of the hug and sits properly.
"I love you" Those words clearly left my mouth, as I was staring straight at her eyes. Those we're the words that I wanted to say to her since day 1
"Thank you for staying with me through this.."I thanked her. She holds my hand and kissed it. She caressed my hair and kissed my forehead.
"Thank you for fighting for me and your family and I love you so much, we'll get through this together I promise" She says and went to the bathroom.
I have always prayed for this to happen and now God gave me an answer. I smiled to.my thoughts and soon enough heard knocks.
"Lyle!" The most beautiful woman was revealed from the door. My mom. She immediately hugs me and kissed my whole face.
"Thank God you're getting better! "She exclaims and hugged me again. My father then hugged me after my mom. "We went here as soon as Hana called." He explains.
Then, Hana went out of the restroom.

Hana's POV
Flashback..
I went to bathroom after what I told Lyle. I was nauseous. I went to the sink, closed my eyes and vomited a lot. I widen my eyes as soon as I saw what was on the sink.
Blood.
I quickly drained it and cleaned the side of my mouth and my clothes for any sign of blood. I don't wanna worry him about my condition.
I heard Lyle's parents and then went out to greet them. "Oh Hana! There you are..Thank You for telling us right away."
I smiled genuinely and looked at Lyle. His lips were pale, there were dark circles under his eyes. And he looked like he was tired but happy that his getting better.
I don't wanna ruin his happiness.
"You're welcome. Mr and Mrs. Lopez" I speak. Mrs. Lopez walked to me and held my shoulders. "How many times have I told you to call me 'Mom'?she asks and I just giggled.
" I should go now I still have work to do." I walked to Lyle, "Bye love, I'll be back tomorrow ok?"He nodded, and I kissed his forehead and then walked out of the room.
I went to my mom's Doctor friend, Mr. Vaquez to receive chemotherapy. Leukemia.
That's what I have.Every month I get chemotherapy, hoping for improvements, but for 5 months, there has been none. It only worsened.
My parents are the only ones who knows about my condition, they told me to go to the states. Be admitted and hopefully be treated.
But, I can't leave Lyle just yet. I have to make that he's fully recovered, and can take care of himself on his own.
It was done, the therapy after a few hours of patiently waiting. I then went to my apartment. Which is really a mess.
I ain't got time..
