Farewell
It was time. Garrus knew it the moment the hospital called their home. His mother's condition was at its worst and it was time to say goodbye to her. For good.
Garrus met Solana and his father at the hospital in her room. His mother looked ashen. Her eyes continually stared at the ceiling unblinking and gazed over. Her breaths were shallow and quiet. For all you knew, she was already dead. The only thing telling you she wasn't was the constant beep of the machines she was attached to.
She no longer remembered she has a husband or that she has a son and a daughter. It was heartbreaking to see her like this. Garrus wanted her misery to end. This disease had gone on long enough.
His father held his mother's hand. Garrus and Solana hovered around her bed. The time finally came when the constant beep turned into a flat line. Solana rested her head on Garrus' shoulder. His father bowed his head slightly.
The only thing they could do now was mourn.
