A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1514

Staring at the darkened screen, Chase's heart was trembling with an uncontrollable pain, blood trickling from his mouth as tears rolled down his cheeks...

His entire body was in agony, and although he had thought the pain from cancer could overshadow the ache in his heart, as death drew near, he realized that the heartache was the one that was truly lethal...

The doctors had given him three days, but since he had removed his tubes, wanting to see Sigrid one last time, his life expectancy had dwindled to just one day...

He desperately wanted to see Sigrid before passing, but it was clear she wasn't coming back. With no expectations left, Chase gathered his last bit of strength, picked up his phone, and tried to send her a message...

Blood from his fingers smeared the phone, blurring the screen. Perhaps it was his confused state of mind that made it hard to see, but he managed to locate Sigrid's number and, with trembling hands, he typed out three words...

He didn't know if he had hit the send button, only aware that suddenly his chest was constricted, choking his breath away. Uncontrollably, a surge of blood rushed to his throat and burst forth from his lips...

The blood splattered across the screen...

Chase looked at his blood-soaked phone with a sense of despair, managed a weak smile, and lay back on the couch without any more consciousness...

As his vision faded, Chase saw a younger Sigrid running towards him with a smile...

"Chase, will you marry me after you graduate?"

Chase wanted to say 'yes', but he couldn't utter a word. He could only mouth silently, over and over: Yes, I'll marry you after I graduate...

He didn't know when the illusion in front of him faded, only that at the moment it did, he whispered softly towards the empty space, "Sigrid, I can't marry you in this life... maybe in the next one, okay?"

No one answered him. In the empty living room, he was alone, as if abandoned by the whole world, alone in his arrival and alone in his death...

After her shower, Sigrid checked her phone and saw a message from Chase, just three short words: [I love you]
