V.Voice crying loud, I've been crying for days now and as I start to run, I stop to breathe."Who is he?"His voice made me stopped what I was supposed to do. I placed the lap harp on the side table before facing him. He played with his black penlight as he leaned on the glass window adjacent to the patient's bed.I furrowed my brows. "Didn't you read the patient's name, Lauyton?" He was a friend from college and a resident like me. I became close to him because of Gab. He was Gab's ex-fiancee."Zendaya, Zack Jersey Mendoza." He stared with annoyance in his face though he was wearing a mask. "I'm jealous."I managed to crack a laugh that didn't reach my eyes. "Why would Lauyton Diem Elarde be jealous of him?" I looked at Zack.I watched the beat of his heart on the monitor screen before moving my eyes to the ICP monitor that indicated his minimal brain activity.

It was the ball my brother used to play baseball with Zack."What are you doing in my room?" I scoffed. "There's a saying that the groom and the bride shouldn't see each other before the wedding.""Don't even think about it." He stood up. "The wedding will happen, and this time you know it's for real." He tilted his head as he scanned me. "I was surprised Zack didn't think about-""I didn't accept his proposal." I cut him off. I don't want to think about it because I was too tired of crying.
