“Am dying,Babe” Adrian’s voice echoed in my head,i chuckled slightly.
“You are joking,right? This is a joke to scare me, Right?”
“Babe, I know this is hard but am not joking,i would never joke around with this”
“But it’s not possible,you have been perfectly fine for so long, Why now,why? We were finally happy”
“I know, Babe but i told you about my condition before we started dating,i thought you were prepared for this”
“Prepared?Did you just say prepared?
Adrian,no one is prepared to lose someone especially the love of their life.
I know we talked about this but i tried not to dwell on it.
Adrian,we have been together for 3 good years,we have argued,made love so many times and faced difficult times together,I can’t be away from you”
“I know,i don’t want to leave you too but nothing can be done,I love you with every fibre in my body,i love you more than the air i breathe and i don’t want you to be miserable”
“You know what,Before you came into my life and i was still in that darkness,i hated love, I hated the idea of marriage,i called it a stupid concept and wondered how someone could be tied to one person and not get tired but everything changed when i met you.
You changed my views on love and marriage, Adrian,i pictured you and i finishing school, accomplishing our dreams, getting married and having kids with you.
I pictured you being the father of my kids but now everything is shattered, everything” He held my head in his hands.
“Am truly sorry that i won’t be able to give you that kind of beautiful future,am sorry”
“Don’t apologise, it’s not your fault, it’s life’s fault, Life is so unfair, it’s such a btch.
It wants to take my biggest source of happiness from me”
“Let’s just go back to sleep, we’ll talk tomorrow” With that, Adrian and l laid back on the bed,i scooted so close to him and wrapped my hands around him.

The Next Day.
I woke up and it was morning, Adrian was still sleeping, I looked at him and he was looking a little pale.
Everything we talked about last night came back to me in a rush,i couldn’t help but cry,it still feels like a dream,a nightmare intact.
A nightmare that i really want to wake up from,i want to scream out everything.
I went to the bathroom to wash my face,then went downstairs to see Adrian’s mom making breakfast.
I sat in front of her and watched as she arranged so many plates on the table.
“Good morning,Clary”
“Good morning,Aunt”
“What is it? You look worried about something”
“Aunt,you are very strong,very strong”
“What do you mean?”
“Adrian told me about his condition last night” She sighed and ran her fingers through her hair.
“Am sorry,we didn’t tell you earlier”
“Aunt, am afraid to lose him, He’s the love of my life” She hugged me as i cried in her arms.
“I know that, He’s my son too,i always knew this would happen,the doctor already told us,but now that it’s really happening, it’s painful.
Don’t worry we will get through this”
