Part Two
It had been a few months since Kane and Dani had spoken and things were sort of okay between Kane and the Sutherlands. Kirsty lived with him in his aunts. She had passed two months ago. Kirsty had tried her hardest to clean up and the place was looking good. But things started going wrong after a few months. Kirsty was getting worse with her Leukaemia. She was told she was going to die sooner then later. They got married and they were happy together.
"I love you Kirsty," said Kane. "I love you Kane," she said quietly. Her voice was faded and she now had to stay in the hospital. Tears rolled down Kane's face. Things were finally going right and now Kirst was about to die. Kirsty held Kane's hand tight. "It's coming," she rasped, "I can feel it. I'm about to go Kane. Don't forget me. Please," said Kirsty, tears on her face too. "No Kirst please keep fighting. There is a chance still. They could find a cure. I love you Kirst, don't leave me." "Kane I'm at peace now. I'm not afraid. I love you," she said and she closed her eyes. "Kirsty please open your eyes, please wake up," Kane was sobbing but he knew. He knew Kirsty was gone. She was gone forever. Kane would never see her again, never hold her again. It wasn't like last time. He couldn't drive to her from another city. It was too late. And he'd never been able to tell her just how much he loved her. He would never get to brush her hair softly in bed as she slept. He'd never hear those three words again, I love you. Kirsty was the first one to tell him that, to make him feel like he was worth something. And she was gone. Forever.
"Nurse, Help!" he screamed, "Someone help." Tears were streaming down his face. He'd never see her again. Why had he left her before, it was such a waste of time. They could have been together for longer. Why couldn't he turn back time? He was willing to sacrifice everything to be with her. Even himself.
Kane ran to the bridge. He knew what he was going to do. Dani was following him. She had to stop him. He was a good person who had done something wrong. She could see a different side of him around Kirsty and now she was gone but Kane could still change. Dani felt tears roll down her face thinking of her sister. She even thought of joining Kane. But she couldn't.
"Kane," she shouted, "Kane come back." Kane wasn't listening. He was prepared. But then he just fell in a heap and cried. Dani rushed up and comforted him and he comforted her. They just sat there with there arms around each other. "It will be okay, It will be okay," Dani repeated.
THREE DAYS LATER. Kane stepped inside the Sutherlands house. "Hello," said Rhys. They had become used to Kane now. "Can I go up to her room," asked Kane, "To say Goodbye?" "Okay," said Rhys quietly. He was beginning to understand. Kane looked around Kirsty's room and walked over to her mirror. He took a photo of her and looked at it. Then he put it back. He walked to it and unscrewed the loose bed knob Kirsty told him about. He found his letter and the ring he had given her into it. He looked out the window at the sun and he slipped the ring on his finger. A tear rolled down his cheek, past his smile.
"I love you," he whispered and though she wasn't here he heard her say it back.
