When Love Died, So Did My Heart

Synopsis

It had been seven years since I broke Claire's heart and she went abroad to study. Now, she was finally back home with her new boyfriend to meet the family. That same day, the hospital gave me the final verdict. After seven years of fighting cancer, I had lost. I could go home and wait for the end. When Claire saw my mother pushing me in a wheelchair, a sneer curled at the corner of her mouth. "Oh, seven years and look at you. You've fallen so low you can't even walk anymore," she said. Hearing the disgust in her voice, I calmly pulled down the sleeve of my down jacket to hide the needle marks scattered across the back of my hand."It's nothing. I tripped and broke a bone," I said. Claire laughed again, this time with more bite."In that case, since I'm getting married soon, you can be the best man for my fiancé." I just smiled quietly. "I can't. I'm going somewhere far away." Then I patted my mother's hand and signaled her to push me home.
