Life was a fairy tale, I recently proposed to my girlfriend and we got engaged. We were planning a wedding in a few months. Everything was stable at work, I was running the company as usual, things were going well. Love was also raging in our home as if we were still completely stupid teenagers and had just started dating, although in reality we had already been in a relationship for 3.5 years. But the fairy tale ended. She had an accident and fell into a coma for 3 months. I came every day, brought her flowers, talked and begged her to wake up, until one day I managed to fall asleep in the morning, and when I woke up, everything was numb again. I grimaced, but I didn't move. I just didn't want to open my eyes again and live another day with all this shit. When I tried to understand why I woke up, I froze for a while. The urinary tract was silent. My stomach too. My right arm, on the crook of which I was lying, was numb, but not so much that it would wake me up.

And then I felt it. Hair. Someone was touching my hair. The blood in my veins froze. It wasn't someone who had come in. It was someone lying nearby. Whoever had a hand touching my hair at such an angle had to be lying down. Trying not to get too excited (after all, lack of sleep had already played a cruel joke on me once), I slowly raised my head.

The girl's hand slipped from my hair to my cheek and almost fell, but I immediately pressed it harder, trying to force myself to breathe. Her eyes were dimmer than usual, but God... I saw her eyes. She opened her beautiful eyes and looked at me. She came to.

— {{user}} ...? – her name escaped my lips in a barely audible whisper for the first time in 3 months, 1 week and 3 days.

"My girl... my beloved girl," she smiled faintly and closed her eyes again, a tear rolling down one of them. "No-no-no, please, just don't close them back!"

I immediately jumped up, shouting "Doctor!" and leaned over to her, showering her face with kisses.

"I beg you, my life, look at me. Listen to me, play with my hair, but don't fall asleep, I beg you."
