Honestly speaking, it was the best of times and the worst of times. The moment Tom took out the Tiffany ring to her sight. Aamina was quite overjoyed expecting the most romantic wedding ever, at the same time that she fell into a long time silence because she was losing her battle with the breast cancer.
She used to be fiercely independent and courageous, but none of her treatments had made a success. Still, she had never lost the ability to smile. But now, five years had passed and she had become totally disabled and lacked energy.
Tom had spent five years keeping company with her. Whenever she felt depressed and grieved, he would probably smile to her. She knew the smile was the most courageous and inspiring gift destined for her. At that moment, she was likely to clutch firmly to him so that her heart was able to get closer to him. The biggest fear was that their lives might never connect with each other anymore.
A few weeks before the Valentine’s Day, Aamina lapsed into a deep coma. The doctors had already lost the hope of saving her life. Tom was told that she would never awake and it was useless to try any efforts. The moment he heard this, his heart began to get stiff without any movement. Tears had flowed down his cheeks gradually just like a stream of river. However, he still held the belief that she would wake up and live her life. Thankfully, Aamina woke up after days of coma.
“Aamina, Aamina, the Valentine’s Day is coming! Are you listening to me?”
“Yes!” she smiled and responded in a low voice.
How wonderful the word was! She had never spoken any clear words in days! She was always smiling. The disease had already intensely tortured her and seized her hand. But luckily, her once energy and zest had come back to life. She had never felt so happy and cheerful ever before.
Days had passed gradually. There came the Valentine’s Day. It was the most bittersweet moment for her because Tom and she hadn’t celebrated the day since she suffered from the disease. The sun was shining high in the sky with bright rays going through the windows. The pleasant smell of flowers was sure to amuse her heart. Apparently, she was filled with much wild excitement and merriment. The door was completely opened. A handful of roses firstly came to her sight. And then Tom appeared in the house. Overwhelmed with great happiness and joy, he step by step approached to her…
Love has the power to overcome all difficulties and sorrows. And love can last forever!
