-Are you waiting for me? - Will laughs - Prepare for injecting please.

-No no no... I don't want to inject now, please Mr Green, I want to wait for my sister.

-Sister?

-Yes, my sister. She's coming. When she's here, I'll inject.

After 30 mins, a beautiful girl comes in Grace's room. For the first time of forever, Will feels his heart is beating so fast.

-Let me introduce, Evelyn Garcia Martin, my sister.

-Hi. I'm Dr. Greenleaf.

-...Hi...I...I'm Evelyn Garcia Martin- Evelyn hesitates.

Will smiles again.

Will feels strange.

-Am I fall in love with her? No no no, it can't be yes... - Will speaks to himself.

Will thinks it's just fleeting feeling and tries to forget the strange things happened when he sees Evelyn.

Surprisingly, Evelyn loves him at the first sight. And with Grace's compliment, Evelyn loves Will more and more.

One day, Evelyn decides to tell Will that she loves him so much.

She waits for Will patiently until he's end of working time.

-You want to talk to me, Evelyn?

-Yes. I.... I...

-Calm down, Evelyn. I'll sit here, listen to you then go home. So you calm down and tell me.

-I....I... I think I fall in love with you at the first met.

-You think? Only think? Think that or do that?

-I...I love you, Will. But... and you?

-I don't know... Give me the time to think...please?

-.....Ok... I'll wait for your answer. But whatever you decide, I'll love you.

Evelyn cries and runs away.

Will thinks about his feeling with Evelyn. Finally, he realises that he loved Evelyn too. But... About his disease?

He wants to tell Evelyn now, but he feels so hurt in his chest. He feels he can't breathe now. Hurt, so hurt. Then he faints.

Will wakes up after 3 days in unconsciousness. Grace worries so much. She cries.

-Please... DON'T GO....

-Idiot. I just tired. - Will smiles.

-SCLC ? Why you conceal?

-Calm down baby. I'm still here, right?

Grace hugs Will and puts her head into Will's chest like she wants to listen to Will's heart beating.

Evelyn knows Will's sick and worries so much.

-Are you hurt?

-No...I'm ok. Don't cry.

-Let me take care of you, Will....

-I have something to tell you, Evelyn...

Will tries to sit. He holds Evelyn's hand and says:

-I love you too. Be my lady, yeh?

Evelyn cries and nods.

Will and Evelyn become a couple. Will loves Evelyn so much. And she loves him too.

Will likes put his head into Evelyn's chest to listen to her heart beat. He likes kissing her softly but not on lips, just on her forehead... Their love is so romantic.

Everything seems to be happy. Day by day, Will loves her more and more.

Both of them think that they'll get married and live happily, even that Evelyn imagines about future life after married Will. Of course, Evelyn thinks she just loves Will, no one else.

People says that although sunny but there can be have shower. Their love begins to surge wave and rift.

Evelyn gets a job in the bank. Whereas, Will become weaker because of disease. Will has to lie on bed all time with life support machines.

Since Evelyn worked in the bank, she becomes busier. She doesn't spend much time for Will than in the past. The invisible gap between them become larger and larger

Evelyn often go home so late, so there's no time for Will.



Will coughs out too much and tired. He knows time is flowing rapidly and he's going to die.

Because of Evelyn's absence, Will becomes sicker and depressed.

He suffers Depression because of his illness and his love.

-Today could you come here? I miss you so much

-I'm sorry but I have to go for business.

Business, Friend's wedding, Parties of co-workers, Works,.... make Evelyn has no time for their love.

Will feels very tired and hurt. Then he tries to call Evelyn.

When people is in illness, they often seem to want to be hug. And so does he.

Raining outside. Evelyn doesn't answer. Now, it's 9p.m and she doesn't stay at home yet.

-Elijah, could you give me my notebook? Will asks Elijah - his friend.

-Ok, but what do you want to do?

-I want to write something.

-Ok, Let me help you sit. Are you Ok? You looks so pale.

-Thank you. Don't worry. -He smiled. Depressing smile.

Day by day, Will can't write or do everything, because his hands are tremulous now. He only can hold and write on his tablet and cellphone.

And Evelyn, she's still busy...

Holidays' coming soon, Will feels so happy. He thinks when having day-off, he can has happy days with Evelyn without business or friends'parties,etc...

-Holidays is coming, so could I be with you in that days? - He calls Evelyn

-I'm so sorry but on Saturday I have to go to Rita's wedding. She's my best friend.

-I said "holidays", not this Saturday- He smiled sadly.

-I have to go with my mother, and my ex-class holds a party to meet each other. 3 years since we have the last meeting.

-Please...Could you stay with me? - He says and tried to hold his tears.

-But...I.... - Evelyn hesitates.

-Ok. You just go. I need to rest now. Good night.

Will ends the call then burst into tears.

-Will, just Ok.. Don't cry, your eyes will hurt.

Will droops on Elijah's arms and cries.

Day by day, Will's weaker and Evelyn's busier. Time to be with each other becomes so "luxurious", even they can't talk anything during 1 week, no message, no call.

Evelyn also doesn't go to hospital to see Will because she's so busy.

-Evelyn finishes her work at 6.30 pm, right? Elijah asks.

-Yes. Why you ask so?

-But no day she goes home early. Don't you think it's strange?

-... She's so busy, I know it. - Will smiles sadly again.

A rainy day.

-Could you help me to call Evelyn? - He tries to make signal because he can't say now.

-You're so pale. Are you tired?

-I thinks... It's my time...to... - He coughs out.

-Stay with me. Stay with me, please. I'll call Evelyn now. Wait for me. Stay with me, don't go!! - Elijah shouts - Doctor, please help my friend,please!

There's a call from Will's phone.

-I'm busy now. I'll call later. - Evelyn says rapidly then tend to end his call.

-I'm Elijah. Will want to meet you. He's so weak now... Please...There's no time, please!

-But now I can't go out.

-.....Ok

Elijah ends the call and follows doctors that take Will to the emergency room.

Elijah has to wait outside that room.

-Grace, Will wants to meet you. He's so weak now.

-Ok, I'm going now.

Grace comes to hospital and waits with Elijah. When on the road, Grace called Evelyn many times but she didn't answer. Grace sent a message to tell Evelyn about Will's situation.

After 15 minutes, Jace- Will's friend, co-worker and now is Will's attending doctor- goes out.

-You and Grace, Will wants to see you. -Jace says.

Will lie on the bed, smiles gently and tries to hold Grace's and Elijah's hands.

Will looks around to find Evelyn. But she's not here.
