My sobbing continued even as he brought his thumb to wipe my tears. It felt like the more he wiped, the more the tears rolled down

“Regina” he called my name gently, but that seemed to aggravate the tears as my whole being shook from my crying. He pulled me into him and held me tightly against his chest as I bawled my eyes out in his arms

After few minutes of continuous sobbing, it reduced and I pulled away slowly from him, wiping my tears as I looked into his eyes. They were red from unshed tears. I could tell he's holding it all in for me, Its way harder for him. He's the one with the illness, but he's doing all he can to hold it all together for me, and that includes putting up a strong front when I can tell he was dying on the inside, more than even the illness itself is causing.

I wiped the stray tear that escaped my eyes as I stared deeply into my husband's eyes. He looked so dejected, if that being word enough to qualify his current state

I cupped his face and planted a lingering kiss on his lips before pulling away to look at him once more. “Lets forget” I whispered “It doesn't matter, we'll get through it”

“Regina.... he tried to to argue but I stopped him by placing my lips on his once more, this time lingering in even longer. It didn't take much time before he returned the kiss and wrapped his hands around me pulling me in

We pulled away to catch our breaths

“I.... we.... it's going to”.... I tried to accumulate meaningful words, but fell short as my face fell. He got the idea and without saying any word caught my lips once more and lifted me up. My legs went round his torso instinctly and my hands snaked his neck as he carried us up the stairs, all the way to the bedroom, not breaking the kiss. He laid me down gently on the bed as he pulled away and he climbed up hovering over me. “I love you” he whispered looking into my eyes before lowering himself to catch my lips


*********

The morning sun shone brightly, illuminating the room. A ray caught his face and he scrunched up rolling over to my side to dodge it. A smile formed on my lips as his face was now close to mine. I stretched out my hands and traced the outline of his jaws. He looked so peaceful sleeping, but then his eyes flicked open when my hands moved to his lips

“Morning” he smiled

“Morning” I replied moving my face closer to kiss him lightly

We laid still staring deeply into each others eyes when his phone rang, breaking our concentration. I picked if from my corner where it was ringing and handed it over to him

“Hello Lily” he said to the other person on the line, who was his secretary

“Alright Lily, I know, I'll be right......

“Hi Emily” I took the phone from him and pressed it to my ears, ignoring his questioning gaze
“I'm sorry he can't make it today, or even tomorrow. So if you could please send all necessary documents he has to work with home, that'd be great”

“Okay, thanks” I hung up and dropped the phone before turning to look at me

“Taking charge aren't we?” he smirked

“You need the rest” I replied before snuggling into him. He draped his hands over my waist and pulled me in closer as we enjoyed the rest of the morning in bed


Emily sent in the documents later on and he went about processing and signing when necessary. I brought him tea and asked if he needed help which he shook his head against as he continued working

The days rolled by, and each day he worries even more as to why I'm not going to work. My reply always was that I took a sick leave, but even I know I've extended it way too long. But I can't go anywhere knowing fully well he's ill. And then one day, it happened.....
