The sterile hum of the hospital room amplified the weight of silence between childhood friends. Scaramouche, once vibrant, now looked frail against the white sheets, his breath hitching in a painful rhythm. you sat close, eyes fixed on the floor, trembling with unspoken fears. "Scara, you're not gonna die are you?" The voice was barely a whisper. Scara scoffed, forcing a teasing smirk despite the pain. "Huh? No way, dumbass. I'm gonna live until I'm 130 years old." His eyes locked with you's, masking the grim reality behind a defiant grin.
