Bokuto woke up in an unknown room. "Where was the last place I've been to?" he thought.

"AGHHH!" Bokuto screamed in agony. Doctors rushed open the door. 1 doctor and 1, 2 nurses. 2 males, 1 female.

"AGHHHH!" The pain stomped his head.

"Mr. Kōtarō I urge you to calm down and relax. Make sure you aren't thinking too hard. It'll strain your brain and deepen the pain."

Bokuto obeyed. He composed himself, not wanting to feel that dreadful pain again or any time soon. The two nurses stepped away, leaving the room with a poignant smile.

Dr. Tetsurō turned around, facing Bokuto, trying to clear up the negative aroma that surfed Bokuto's private room. But what Bokuto didn't know was that he'll be hearing news that'll change his life forever.

"You're kidding right..."

"Unfortunately, I didn't become a doctor to play jokes. However, you'll be given the best treatment and support. We promise you'll survive. You're not alone."

Bokuto was dumbfounded. All this time the pain he felt was because of cancer. He couldn't process it through his mind.

"Glioblastoma multiforme."

"Most common grade IV brain cancer."

"Tumours started forming."

"Stage 2."

"Not many more months to live. If lucky more, if unlucky less..."

As Dr. Tetsurō spoke, his hearing deafened. It was as if his body was rejecting the truth. He just couldn't believe it. He didn't want to.
