The hospital room is pale and quiet, the only sound a beeping monitor that marks each fading second. Outside, the sun sets gold through the blinds, painting your birthday in cruel light.

The line goes dead. You lie still, waiting, as the shadows lengthen and the door stays closed. Will he come before the light leaves you?
