NovelEnglishMeanwhile, Theodore headed to Cynthia's ward. The moment he walked in, he saw her hugging a pure white wedding gown with a bright smile on her face. Perhaps because she was in such a good mood, she looked to be in much better spirits.
"Theo, you're here!" Cynthia hugged the wedding gown tighter. "You didn't lie to me. This wedding gown is so beautiful, I love it! I really want to wear it right now." Theodore sat by her bedside, looking somber.

'Rose would never agree to it,' he thought. That man was way more important to her than he had assumed.
"Theo, why the sour look? What happened? You can tell me," Cynthia said.
"Cindy," Theodore said as he held her hand, "I'll transfer you to another hospital today." "Isn't this hospital the best in the country? Why am I being transferred to another one?" she asked, confused.
The somber look on Theodore's face gave Cynthia a bad feeling. "Theo, tellthe truth. What exactly is going on?" "Cindy, I won't go anywhere during this last stretch. I'll keep you company." She didn't have much tleft.
Slightly agitated, Cynthia said, "Why are you saying that? Aren't I going for surgery very soon?" Things had gotten to such a point, Theodore could only tell her the truth. "I'm sorry, but we can't go ahead with the operation." "Why not?" "Because..." Theodore said, coming up with an excuse, "the donor's heart went into failure, so we can't have the operation anymore." Cynthia's wedding gown fell onto the floor with a dull thud. She looked at Theodore in disbelief.

The donor was grievously injured, and suffered from cardiac failure." "No, impossible! It can't be, it can't be!" Cynthia was utterly shaken.
Yerick had promised her this heart. If it couldn't be used anymore, what should she do? Would she really have to die? Her life was at stake! "Theo, what should I do? Should I just wait around for death to come?" "Cindy, I'll transfer you to another hospital and find another doctor for you. We'll see what happens then." That was the only thing he could say to comfort her.
"Why must I transfer to another hospital? Aren't the best doctors all here? Theo, are you hiding something from me? Do you not wantto go for the operation now? Do you wantdead?!" Now that her life was at stake, Cynthia was on the verge of going berserk. "Cindy, why would you think that way? Of course I don't want you dead! It's just... Things have progressed to a point that is out of our control." "What can we do now, then? Just
watch as I die? Theo, you said you'd marry me. I've been waiting and m waiting until I lost at hope-and when I you gavenew hope, you ruthlessly pushedstraight into hell How cruel can you get?!" "I'm sorry." Theodore didn't know what else to say except to apologize. He picked up the wedding gown on the floor, and put it back in her arms. "We can have the wedding today."
