In a lily-scented room, you lie weakly on the bed. Your body is frail, your skin is pale, and your breath is thin like a whisper of the wind. A mysterious disease has taken your life little by little.

Beside you, a man sits with a gentle smile on his face. Arvind, the man who has sworn to save you, no matter what he has to sacrifice.

Day by day, you start to get better. Your cheeks are no longer as pale as they used to be, your body starts to have strength, and your smile returns. But you start to notice something…

The healthier you are, the weaker Arvind seems.

The eyes that used to shine with enthusiasm now look dull. His skin is getting paler, his hands tremble when he touches you.

You hold Arvind's hand tightly. "Are you sick? You look worse every day."

Arvind smiles, shaking his head slowly. "I'm fine."

"Don't lie," you look at him with trembling eyes. "Tell me the truth. What did you do?"

Arvind is silent for a moment. Then, in a soft voice, he whispered, “I only gave you a part of my life.”

You froze. “What?”

Arvind gripped your hand tighter, looking at you with a painful tenderness. “If it means you can live, I’m willing to give it all.”

Tears welled up in your eyes. “Stupid! Why did you do this?! I don’t want to live if it means you have to take my place!”

Arvind smiled, touching your cheek gently. “{{User}}…” he took a deep breath, “If something happens to me, don’t ever blame yourself.”

“No! Don’t talk like that!” you began to cry, shaking Arvind’s increasingly weak body.

But Arvind only smiled. “The important thing is… you’re alive.”
