Chapter 1
I had cancer, but my husband, Javion Hunt, said I was faking it.
However, when his childhood sweetheart, Julia Brown, was diagnosed with depression, he didn't have any doubt.
Every day, she made a fuss about asking Javion to accompany her, or she would commit suicide.
Javion said that he couldn't watch her die, so he had to go to her.
To make Julia happy, he even agreed to hold a wedding ceremony with her.
Per him, after she recovered, he would live a good life with me.
But he didn't know that I had died on the day of their wedding!
———
I got the stomach cancer test report, and the doctor told me that I had only one month left.
He asked me to tell my family about this matter as soon as possible to make them mentally prepared.
After thinking for a long time, I decided to tell Javion such news over dinner.
At the very least, I wanted to spend the last month of my life with the one I value the most in my life.
I carefully prepared a sumptuous dinner, planning to confess to him during dinner.
But before I could, he received a call from his childhood sweetheart, Julia.
Soon, he became serious. After hanging up the phone, he looked absent-minded.
"Honey, Julia was diagnosed with depression today. If I don't go to her, she will commit suicide. I'll go and chat with her for a while. I'll come back late today. You don't have to wait for me."
He looked away from me and left with his jacket before I could say anything.
Julia was the childhood sweetheart of Javion.
She liked Javion, but Javion only regarded her as a younger sister.
Therefore, she always wanted to attract Javion's attention using different kinds of tricks from time to time.
At first, Javion would go to see her. As time went by, he could tell what she was up to and began avoiding her.
But I didn't expect that she would threaten Javion with committing suicide so that he could go see her this time.
I wanted to tell him that I had cancer too, but he left without giving me a chance to speak.
I sat on the sofa in a daze and waited for Javion all night, but he didn't come back.
At five a.m., he pushed open the security door. At the sight of me curling up on the sofa, a trace of heartache flashed across his eyes.
"Robbie, why are you still up? Have you been waiting for me here all night?"
When I saw him, tears rolled down my cheeks.
I felt wronged, scared, and terrified!
He seemed to have noticed my abnormality.
He quickly held me in his arms and asked anxiously, "Honey, what's wrong? Did something happen? Don't cry. I am heart-broken to see you cry!"
Hearing this, I couldn't help but cry even harder.
"If I say that I'm about to die, will you stay with me and accompany me through the last stage of my life?"
Panicking, Javion said, "Honey, don't scare me. You won't die. If you die, I won't live on either. You have to live well and accompany me for this life, for the next, and the next."
He patted my back gently. Hearing his gentle tone, I slowly calmed down.
I wanted to accompany him for the rest of my life, for the next, and the next. But my physical condition wouldn't allow me.
I tried my best to suppress the sadness in my heart. Smiling lazily, I looked at him solemnly.
"I do have something very important to tell you, but you have to promise me that you will calm down."
"Well, okay, my dear wife, just say it quickly if you have anything to say! Otherwise, I will always feel uneasy."
At this time, his cell phone rang again.
He smiled awkwardly at me. It was Julia calling again.
However, he did not answer the phone this time.
Then, he received a text message from Julia.
At the same time, there was a video of Julia cutting her wrist.
"Javion, I really can't live without you!"
I saw the message too. Javion's face changed again.
"Honey, let's talk about it when I come back. Julia committed suicide again. I have to keep an eye on her and make sure nothing will happen to her."
Seeing that he was about to leave with his clothes in a panic, I subconsciously grabbed his hand.
"Don't go!"
Realizing that I gripped his clothes, Javion suddenly frowned and looked somewhat impatient. He unconsciously spoke seriously.
"Robbie, don't make trouble. Julia will die if I don't go to her! Be sensible!"
It was the first time that he had been so fierce to me. I was shocked by his reaction, and tears flowed down my cheeks. I felt even more aggrieved.
"But I'm about to die too!"
Perhaps my reaction was too abnormal. He was stunned for a moment. He then reached out to hug me and softened his tone.
"Don't talk nonsense. How can you curse yourself like this? We have to live a long life together! Don't worry. After coaxing Julia, I will come back immediately."
But I didn't make a scene!
I was indeed going to die!
Chapter 2
In the end, he left me alone at home.
I sat alone on the sofa, and my mind ran wild. My stomach was churning. It hurt so much that I almost couldn't breathe.
The physical pain was nothing compared to the pain in my heart!
I curled up on the sofa. It was unknown whether it was because I was sleepy or because of the pain that I fell asleep.
When I woke up again, he was sitting by the bed and looking at me gently.
It was as if nothing had happened last night.
Seeing that I was awake, he quickly brought me my favorite sandwich.
My stomach was still throbbing. I suddenly didn't want to talk to him.
Javion looked beat up, furrowing his eyebrows tightly. There was a layer of dark circles below his eyes.
Seeing that I didn't want to talk to him, he frowned helplessly. He looked like there was nothing he could do.
"Honey, are you still angry with me? It's my fault. Don't be angry, okay?"
He reached out to intend to pull me into his arms, but I dodged him subconsciously.
"I'm not angry. You must take care of your childhood sweetheart."
He looked even more helpless.
"Honey, I know you're angry, but can you see things from my point of view? My childhood sweetheart is going to commit suicide for me. If I don't care about her, won't I be too cruel? Are you going to make me such a heartless person?"
"Honey, I'm so tired. I haven't slept for two days and a night. Don't you feel sorry for me? Don't mess with me, okay?"
Hearing his words, I was disappointed.
He was accusing me of being insensible.
"So in your heart, I'm an unreasonable person, right?"
My stomach throbbed in pain again. It hurt so much that I gasped.
Javion didn't notice my abnormality. He yawned and smiled cheekily before brushing me off.
"Of course not. You are the most reasonable person in the world, so you will understand me, right?"
I was in so much pain that I couldn't make a sound. Beads of sweat appeared on my forehead.
Javion didn't notice my abnormality. He threw me a kiss wearily.
"I have been busy all night. I'm so tired and sleepy. I'm going to bed now!"
After that, he didn't give me another look as he went straight back to his room. Then he closed the door.
I curled up on the sofa alone. With my trembling hands, I pulled out the painkillers from a drawer and swallowed a pill. Only then did the pain subside considerably.
However, I soon felt a surge of intense pain again.
Feeling the intense pain in my stomach, I suddenly felt a burst of fishy sweetness in my throat. Then I couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood.
When the pain subsided, I quickly got up and went to the bathroom to clean up.
Recently, my stomach ache had become more and more intense. Even the painkillers prescribed by the doctor had little effect.
My life should have been at the countdown period, so I should cherish the rest of my life even more.
After calmly cleaning up the house, I decided to have a good talk with Javion after he got up.
As for what happened yesterday, I didn't want to haggle over it.
After all, to a dying person, to be happy mattered the most.
"Let bygones be bygones! I just want to live a good life in the future."
After Javion woke up, he left in a hurry again.
This time, he even forgot to say goodbye to me before going to Julia's house.
He abandoned me again for Julia.
Suddenly, I felt a little sad.
It seemed that we had gone back to the time when Julia had lied to him and tricked him into going to her.
At that time, he ignored me for Julia's sake.
Thinking of everything that had happened before, I suddenly wondered if Julia was pretending to be sick again.
After all, in the past, she often used the excuse of being sick to make Javion take care of her.
When Javion came back again, it was already midnight.
He looked even more tired and listless than before.
I took out my stomach cancer test report and spread it out in front of him.
Chapter 3
Javion looked at it suspiciously, asking, "What's this?"
Fearing that he would be called away by Julia again before I could tell her the truth, I quickly said, "I have cancer!"
...
I fantasized about his reaction after knowing that I was sick, but I didn't expect him to be so calm.
At this time, I didn't notice anything wrong with him. Thinking of my illness, I couldn't help choking with sobs.
"The doctor said that I had one month left. Can you stay at home with me rather than go to Julia?"
He might think of me as someone selfish or willful!
At this moment, I just wanted my husband in front of me to accompany me through my last journey wholeheartedly.
Javion looked at me meaningfully.
"Robbie, I know you want me to stay at home with you, but you can't make up such a lame excuse to lie to me!"
"Do you know that Julia suffered from depression because of me? I've been taking care of her these days. I am so tired. Can you be more understanding? Stop being so unreasonable!"
"Why did you happen to have cancer as soon as Julia was diagnosed with depression? Do you want me to stay with you in this way regardless of Julia's life?"
"Do you know that she will die without any company? When did you become so vicious?"
Hearing his vicious words, I tried to refute him but didn't know how.
"So in your heart, it's true that Julia is suffering from depression, while I'm pretending to have cancer."
"Have you ever thought that maybe I am telling you the truth, and she lies to you like before?"
Julia had never used such an excuse before. But she had used a lot of excuses like she got flu and fevers!
"That's impossible. Robbie, how can you speculate about others so maliciously? I saw her diagnosis with my own eyes! She does suffer from depression!"
Hearing this, I smiled bitterly.
"But didn't you see mine too? Do you think I'm lying to you?"
I didn't know why he was so sure that I was lying to him. At this moment, I couldn't be more helpless.
"Do you think I deliberately made up an excuse that I had cancer? Do you think I wanted you to stay with me so that you couldn't take care of Julia? Is that how you think of me?"
At this moment, I felt a surge of bone-chilling chill.
A trace of panic flashed across Javion's eyes, but he quickly calmed down.
"Isn't that the case? Think about it at home."
Javion opened the door angrily and left, only to see Julia standing outside with tears all over her face.
"Javion, has Robbie misunderstood something? How about I explain it to her?"
"There's no need. A selfish person like her would probably wish for something to happen to you!"
I couldn't help shouting at him at the sight of him pulling Julia away in disgust.
"Yes! I'm such a vicious person! I can't wait for something to happen to Julia. Are you satisfied?"
Julia glanced at me carefully and wanted to explain, but Javion pulled her away.
I watched him slam the door indifferently. Then I burst into tears uncontrollably.
I had never thought that Javion would scold me using such vicious words.
It was as if today was the first time I had known him. Only then did I find out his true colors.
In the next few days, Javion didn't go home.
I didn't go out either.
I had been thinking a lot these days. If he didn't believe me, let it be.
I had less than a month left in my life. There was no need to worry about things that were not worth it.
After thinking it through, I decided not to include him in my final life plan.
Since he didn't believe me, I didn't need his trust.
In my last period, I just wanted to eat well, sleep well, and take good care of myself.
The food in the refrigerator at home was almost used up. I was ready to go out and buy some fresh ingredients.
Upon arriving at the gate of the community, I saw Javion gently holding Julia for a walk.
It was unknown what they were talking about, but they looked happy.
Julia pushed Javion mischievously from time to time and deliberately said that she was tired. Then she asked him to carry her on his back.
In the face of Julia's coquetry, he pinched her face lovingly and squatted down without hesitation.
I had asked Javion to carry me on his back before, but he said that it was strange, so he had never carried me on his back.
The sunlight shone on the two of them, making them look like a match made in heaven.
Suddenly, I was dazzled by the sunlight in the distance. Just as I was about to turn around and leave, I heard Julia's shout.
"Robbie, Robbie, why are you ignoring me?"
