>>57453750I'm going to change this one, there's no world where I can imagine Shiori (or any relationship I've been in honestly) would ever leave someone for having cancer and the extent of my tragedies do not go past breakups due to circumstances like sickness. It's also just not realistic enough (to me), unless you said that you died and she had to move on. Apologies that this isn't the story you asked for, maybe another anon can write it for you.
>The results are in>Your dread has started to set in, your anxiety has hit its peak>It's official, you have cancer, it's treatable of course, but it's going to be expensive, it will be lengthy, and even after that, you may experience hefty side effects>You sigh heavily, but you have to tell her>You arrive home, your face screams "It's the end of the world.">Shiori sees you, without even a word she already knows what the results are>She walks over to you, putting her arms around your neck, gently guiding your head towards her chest>You start to sob, you wished against all odds it could be better>You wished that Shiori wouldn't have to put up with this for your sake>But it's not in her, it's not who she is>She rubs your back gently, trying to console you>The sobbing eventually dies down, however she can still feel your silent tears on her chest>This doesn't deter her, she continues to rub your back, and also the back of your head>She never did like the idea of guys that are weak, or guys that needed to be babysat all the time>However, she also understands that sometimes, a guy has no choice but to show weakness>She understands you, she accepts you, and this turn of weakness you're displaying in-front of her?>"It's going to be ok anon. I'll still be here for you.">You look up for the first time, your tears haven't ceased, but you can see the same gentle smile on her face, her golden eyes fully locked onto your gaze>You know deep down it's true.>She'll be there to support you, as she always has and will.>And for the first time in your heart, you start to relax, all the anxiety and despair you had felt previously is slowly being washed away.
