~ Two Months Later ~
Alex and Jennifer sit at a bench near the sidewalk of the hospital. Jennifer has been doing treatments, she wants to live, she wants to see things, do things, and she doesn't want to leave Alex. She hasn't been able to tell Alex her condition, she knows it's wrong keeping the biggest secret from him. But every time she tries to tell him, he always look at her with those faithful brown eyes of his which made her drown in them and forget what she's going to say.
"Jen?" Alex asked, taking out a small blue box, he opens, it's a white gold ring with small diamonds in the shape of a heart.
"Tell me this is NOT what I think this is" Jennifer said, getting up.
"Jennifer, marry me!"
"No, no, I can't, I'm sorry Alex." Jennifer headed back to her room.
"Please, at least tell me why?" Alex begged, grabbed her hand.
"I...I’ve only got one month left" Jennifer said, looking at the ground, not able to look at him.
"So?" Alex's response surprised her.
"So? I'm dying!" Jennifer said, shaking Alex, try to make him realize what's going on.
"Jen, honey, even if you’ve only got one minute to live, I would still ask you to be my wife, to me, one second with you can be forever, and we’ve still got a month left!" Alex said sincerely, taking her into his arms kissed her on the forehead.
"Alex..."
"Shh." Alex puts a finger over her lips, while putting the ring on her finger. "Please say yes" Alex pleads.
"Yes..." Jennifer, said, tears rolling down her cheek.
"I love you" Alex whispered, kissing the tears off her face...
