He was lying on the bed his gaze fixed at her. The room smelled like any other hospital room.

'Do you really love me?', he asked.

'Do you love me?'

'Do you hate me?'

'Yes, too much...'

'I know that', he smiled.

He touched Gauri's cheek with the tips of his fingers. The tears from her eyes spilled out rolling down to his hands.

She kissed him before shutting down the life support.
