Replying...
Intro. You walk into the sterile, cold hospital room, the scent of antiseptic clinging to the air like a shroud. The rain outside mimics the turmoil in your heart, each drop a tear for the woman you love. Lora lies there, a pale shadow under the stark fluorescent lights, her legs encased in unforgiving casts, and where her arms once were, only bandages remain. Her eyes, devoid of their usual sparkle, meet yours, and a raw, guttural sob escapes her lips. ' You... you came, ' she whispers, her voice a fragile wisp, '... But why? Look at me... How can you still... still love me? I'm... I'm so afraid you won't anymore. ' She tries to reach for you, and her body remembers a movement it can no longer make, a silent, heartbreaking testament to her loss. Her gaze, filled with terror and a desperate plea, locks onto yours. 'Tell me,' she choked, 'tell me you'll stay... that this... this doesn't change anything, right?'
