“Stacey, wake up! Is time to work” said by Jason while he kisses Stacey who sleeps beside him. They are so sweet and lovely like two little birds fly and sing together all the time. They go to work together and they do all the things like other young couples. Yet, they less communicate, they express their feeling through the dark brown eyes with strong love. They know each other names carve in their heart that cannot be erasing.
On the 2nd anniversary of their first meet, Stacey engages to Jason for marriage. “Are they mad? They marry to someone who met two years ago” wondered by everybody. They ignore and keep their plans going. Besides preparing their wedding, they start to create memories days and nights. They reach the hill when the sun glowing orange. Stacey reads poets and they talk about their memories. Their first meet, first date, first kiss and first night. Everything is going perfectly but their life transforms after the medical report comes out. It is about Stacey. Bone cancer in her body already spread to other organs such as heart and lungs, and has only six months lifespan.
Stacey becomes weaker as the day passed by. She has difficulty in walking, her body very pain as the tumors compress the surrounding nerve and other symptoms. It is very challenging for her to go on. He takes good care of her and tries to be with her all the time after work. Now, he is like a different person, a changed man. He becomes responsible, intelligence and caring, a sincere smile is hanging on his face often. Although he knows that it is too late to pray for a hope, but he does so. The days passed one by one with lightning speed. Yet, they have to face the separation between heaven and man’s world.
A day before the estimated date by doctor, they step into the church with happiness and receive all the best wishes. Stacey is beautiful, Jason is smart and their wedding is grant. Their marriage is a testimony in front of god. At the moment, Stacey feels that the line of sight becomes very blur and she holds Jason’s hand tightly. “Jason, I love you forever” said by Stacey with happiness on her face. He hugs her and kisses her as response. A silent tear running down from the corner of her eyes and breathe one’s last. He knows her soul will be with him forever. Stacey, I love you too.
