“Yes, I do! And I will not lose my life emotionally and mentally before I lose it physically. I will not. I watched her do that and it was awful.”
“Remy-”
“Oliver. I don’t want to argue about this with you. Please.”
He’s quiet and continues to watch me. “Fine. I’ll drop it for now, but we are not done with this conversation,” he tells me firmly. I nod knowing he will absolutely bring it up again and even understand his desire to do so. For now, I will take this victory and happily drop the subject.
Walking to me he takes me in his arms and holds me tight. My throat closes and my eyes burn. I didn’t realize how much I needed to be held. I revel in it and hug him back just barely refraining from squeezing him as tightly as I’d like to. Emotions rush through me quickly and it’s impossible to decipher all of them, so I ignore them for now.
Pulling away from me a little, he smiles. “I’m going to go, but get some rest. I’ll be back here tomorrow with our travel information.”
Dropping my arms and stepping back I look at him in confusion, “What are you talking about?”
“The beach. You said you wanted to go now, right?”
“Yeah, but, I didn’t mean-”
“We’re going. We are going to cash in on that reason, Remy. The two of us together, just like I said, okay?”
I nod because that’s all I can manage at the moment.
“Besides, it’s the perfect chance.”
“Perfect chance?” I don’t understand his meaning.
“To change your mind about treatment. To show you all there is to live for. I plan on giving you some reasons of my own.”
With that, he kisses me on the forehead and walks out.
