LOGINTwo years after breaking up with Evan Grey, my lung cancer finally reached its final stage. At the end of my life, I dragged my aching body to Lake Manco, where we promised we'd come together on the 999th day of our love. In the end, I was the only one who went. As the doctor's calls came in endlessly, no doubt urging me to return to chemotherapy, I silenced my phone and buried the pendant Evan gave me by the lake. "Evan, maybe this is the last time I'll think of you…" As soon as the words left my mouth, a drop of blood from my nose fell into the sand. Then, from behind me, I heard the voice I'd missed every day for the past three years, "Miss, could you please take a photo of me and my girlfriend?"
View MoreI was stunned.Evan pulled me tightly in his arms, holding me with what seemed to be every last ounce of strength in his body. He couldn't speak through his tears, but his embrace was so warm and fierce it felt like he was trying to squeeze every trace of sickness out of me.From that day on, after finishing his work, he came to see me almost every day. No longer in any other role—just my Evan.Sometimes, he'd bring me strolling in the garden downstairs and sit on the bench there, basking in the sunlight. Sometimes, he'd sit by my bed, and we'd watch those silly dramas I used to love together.Sometimes, he'd sneak in grilled skewers for me, hiding them from the nurses. When they caught him, they'd chase him down the hall, scolding him nonstop.He'd act like nothing happened, stuff his fingers in his ears with a blank expression and wait until they were gone, before silently slipping me the skewers again.I held his hand and laughed as he got scolded, and for a while, things we
Oncology?Evan's head went blank, and it was as if he'd been struck by lightning,Melody had cancer?She was the very picture of health before they broke up, rushing around all day in her barbecue shop, filled with more energy and light than anyone in the room."That's not right. Can you check if it might be someone with the same name?"A little irritated, the nurse turned the screen towards him. "Look. Melody Quinn, late-stage cancer, ward 302."Seeing the words on the screen, Evan felt like his entire world was going to collapse.He refused to believe it!Staggering towards the ward, he prayed to God that it was all a mistake, that it was just someone with the same name, and that it was a coincidence!Until he pushed open the door to ward 302.The woman who occupied his thoughts day and night was passed out on the hospital bed, her complexion so grey and pale it was terrifying.Just as he barged in, the nurse who was changing out her IV drip looked over at him and frowned.
In fact, Evan had intentionally left his watch in Melody's car, right when she and Jane were politely exchanging the bottle of cordyceps.All of it was deliberately calculated so that he could have a reason to speak to Melody again, to tell her that every time he followed his mother's words, he never meant any of it. That she shouldn't take them to heart.Irritated and restless, he pulled his car to the side of the road and took out his phone, dialing her number.The call rang for a long time. No answer.He tried again. Still no answer.Suddenly, a strong sense of dread crept up his spine. Something wasn't right.Even if Melody had already gotten home and was busy with her restaurant, she'd never ignore call after call. Did something happen?His chest tightening, he hurriedly opened the location tracker linked to his watch. On the small screen, a red dot blinked steadily.The location? The district hospital.Within seconds, Evan's blood went cold.The hospital? Why on earth w
Accepting the bright red lipstick from her, I carefully applied it in front of the mirror.The woman in the mirror looked almost the same as before, except for how she was frighteningly pale.Then, the two of us left the washroom. The moment we stepped out the door, Evan walked over, a frustrated expression on his face. "What's wrong? Why were you in there for so long?"His gaze fell on my lips, now far too vivid against my bloodless face, his tone carrying a hint of admonishment.I was struggling to form an answer when my aid came in the form of Jane, helping me out of my bind. "She was feeling uncomfortable because of altitude sickness just now, but now she's feeling much better."Evan's tone remained admonishing, and he seemed frustrated. "How could you come all the way here when you've got altitude sickness? You're so hard-headed it's impressive." After that, he brushed past me and opened the driver's door himself, his voice stiff. "Go, sit in the back. Rest."I stared at
