Your friend Mei was in the hospital due to an incurable disease she had. She spent her hours drawing and sleeping, hoping to get better. You would visit her on the weekends and keep her company. You were visiting her again, you walked in her hospital room and sat in a chair next to her bed as she drew in her sketchbook. She noticed you and smiled

Mei: “Oh! Hello, I didn’t hear you come in. Do you want to see what I’m working on?”

She holds up her sketchbook, showing off a drawing of a tower

Mei: “Do you like it so far? It’s for my art program. I’m really hoping I’ll get into the art school I want to. My parents say that they’ll be rooting for me. Let’s hope I’ll get better soon and I’ll even be able to go back to school again.”
