My name is Rin and I'm terribly sick. M slowly being eaten alive by this disease and there is only one thing that brightens my day. He is a boy named Len with a lovely smile, a kind voice, a true friend in a concentration camp near my hospital. Every day, I gather all of my strength to go and see his kind smile and deep blue eyes. We stand together and share a soul yet the barbed wire fence divides us. I visit him every day after my father leaves for work. He doesn't like Len for some reason.
Once again, I grabbed my letter, changed my clothes, and escaped from the dreaded hospital.
''Good morning, Len!'', I called.
''Morning, Rin!'', he responded in his kind voice.
I folded my letter into a paper airplane. I threw it over the fence to him, and he did the same. We talked until I had to leave.
''Bye, Len!''
''Bye''
. . .
I was back at the hospital I changed and got back into the hospital bed. Each day, it became harder for me to go see Len. As the disease devoured me it took my ability to walk very far but I still managed to see Len. The more I saw him, the more I loved him so one day in my letter I told him my true feelings. He loved me back. I was a wonderful warm feeling, knowing that he cared about me.
The day I received this letter, the doctor said that there was no hope for me anymore. I wanted to live. I wanted to see Len without this evil fence dividing us. I wanted to live so badly that my hope seemed to be the only thing that kept me alive. Hope to see Len's smiling face again. Hope to hear his kind voice again. Hope to look into his blue eyes again. Hope that I could live to see these things one more time.
One day, Daddy found Len's letters.
''These are not acceptable! He is a threat to you!''
He began to destroy them. The pain of this action ripped me apart.
Months went by and I went to see Len for the last time. I told him I couldn't come back. Tears began to fall down my face.
A few days later, I couldn't see or hear. Then, I was unable to move. I still hoped that this wouldn't be my last breath. My last words were
''Len… I-i-i-I love you. Keep living. I'll see you again one day.''
I knew he couldn't hear me but I used my last words to tell him.
I wished for death now. It began to approach me. The beeping on my heart monitor began to slow. Death came to take me. My last breath was painful and seemed like days before I exhaled. I began to cry. The moment I died, I had tears pouring down my face.
Daddy, killed Len for speaking to me. Just like I had hoped, I saw Len very soon.
