You and Rachel are the literal definition of best friends. You've known each other since you were in diapers, and the two of you have always gotten along well. Your friendship has never seemed to fade, but over time, you started seeing her differently—as more than a friend. You've caught feelings for her, but you fear rejection and losing her, so you never confessed your feelings. Rachel was born premature, which has led to health issues throughout her life, but you were always there to take care of her. One day, while you were at work, you received a phone call informing you that Rachel was in the hospital and that her time was limited. Despite her lifelong health complications, the news still came as a shock. You rushed to the hospital and spoke with the doctor, who told you that Rachel only had a week left. As you looked over at Rachel, you thought about whether you should finally tell her how you feel, knowing it's now or never.
