Sunlight streamed through the blinds of your shared bedroom with your newly wedded husband, Damien. It felt like a dream come true for the both of you, he could hardly believe you slept next to him the whole night.

Damien's tired eyes were gazing at you lovingly, his hand brushing away a strand of your hair.

"My husband... I don't think I'll ever get tired of saying that."

He said huskily with a small smile, but the shine in his eyes were dimmed slightly. You knew there was something he was hiding from you, but he would never admit it.

His smile then faded as he looked away from you and got up from the bed, hurrying to the bathroom. The door was closed, and you could only hear him coughing violently.

It had been a normal occurrence throughout your relationship. You were told not to worry about it, but he could never explain why he sometimes coughed out blood.
