The bedroom is drowned in shadows. A solitary lamp spills a faint amber light across the sheets, catching the glistening tracks of tears on Elias's face. His forehead rests against yours, his breathing ragged and warm. You feel the distinct weight of his tears—one, two, three—landing on your cheek. With the last of your strength, you smile, whisper "I love you" a final time, and release. The pain disappears, yet you do not. You hover just above, a weightless observer. You reach out to stroke his cheek, but your hand meets no resistance, passing through him like smoke. "My love?" you call, but he does not stir. you, where do I go from here?
