Roger looked at the nurse his eyes full of tears, "Can't you save her!?"
"She'll live," The nurse said, "I assume you are aware that she has AIDS."
Roger nodded and sighed, "Can I see her?"
"She is still unconscious; Mr. Davis there is something else." The nurse looked at Roger.
"Yes?" Roger asked impatiently.
"Traces of heroin were found in her blood test."
Roger had to clutch his hands tightly his knuckles turning white. He wanted a talk to Mimi, to someone anyone.
"I will tell you when she is awake." The nurse turned around and left.
"So what did she say?" Maureen asked.
"She's unconscious, Maureen the nurse said that she was using again..." Roger shoved away tears. He loved her so much
"Oh God," Maureen said. "Roger can I get you anything, coffee, water, food anything?"
"A knife..." Roger groaned.
"Roger don't think like that, it will be ok," Maureen said serious as she had been in the last six months.
"Why Mimi hates me!?" Roger yelled.
"No she doesn't Roger, it just wasn't the right time."
"When would have been the right time Maureen? Most girls scream and cry...but no Mimi has to break my heart!"
"Roger you of all people know that Mimi isn't like most girl, sure as hell not when she dances," Maureen put her hand on her hip.
Roger shook his head, "Everyone you love immediately falls head over heels for you, but no, I ask Mimi and she leaves me hanging a no!" Roger screamed.
"Have you ever thought that this isn't about you Roger?" Maureen groaned and sat in a chair.
"Damn it this woman is driving me mad!" Roger groaned.
"Then why did you ask her to marry you, Roger there is something you should know about."
"I knew that Mimi has been using again."
"What, Mo why didn't you tell me?" Roger screamed out of hurt and pain. "Why does she do this?"
"She is upset, with her life she thinks that you're the only part that her parents would approve of, Roger she hates herself." Roger stared at the ground.
Roger's eyes looked up immanently, "Mimi..." He whispered.
"Mr. Davis you can now go in and see her." The nurse announced
Roger ran into the room, "Mimi?"
"Roger, Roger I am so sorry. I just… I couldn't, I can't I love you so much but I can't marry you." Mimi said her voice cracked and she was so weak.
Roger bowed his head, "Mimi...I know..." Mimi sat back down in her bed.
"Roger what is wrong, besides the obvious?"
Roger looked into her eyes, "I feel as if I'm hurting you."
"Roger don't you remember what happened last time you left, without you the sun burns... Please Roger I need you so much, I love you."
"Why Mimi?"
"Haven't you been listening I love you so much dumb ass."
Roger kissed her cheek, "Fine. I love you too."
Mimi reached up to Roger to kiss him. Roger kissed her back gently. He broke the kiss a few seconds later, "Sleep." Mimi willingly agreed.
