For You, I'll Level Hell
Medical Center.
Outside the Operating Room.
Rachel, the girl in the red dress, waits anxiously.
Not far away, Gilly's parents continued to pray.
"So fast?"
When Dr. Montgomery came out, Rachel was shocked. "How is Gilly?"
"Feel sorry."
Dr. Montgomery apologized, "Gilly's tumor has spread to her bladder, and the cancer is in stage four. Surgery is no longer an option."
"What... what does this mean?"
Rachel was struck dumb, her face deathly pale as she asked.
"Gilly's parents are still alive, so perhaps letting them take her home would be a good option."
Dr. Montgomery glanced at Gilly's parents, who were watching them expectantly from a distance.
"No!!!"
Rachel was unwilling to accept this outcome.
Seeing this, Gilly's mother understood what had happened. She could no longer continue her prayer, and tears streamed down her face.
Gilly's proud father also closed his eyes at this moment, his slightly trembling body bearing witness to his pain.
Dr. Montgomery explained a few more words, then, seeing Rachel slumped on the ground, clutching her head and crying, he shook his head and walked away.
This kind of grief can only be borne by the patient's family.
Unless a miracle truly occurs, and the cancer cells that have spread so severely encounter an even more ruthless opponent, causing them to collectively commit suicide and die.
Otherwise, Rachel's best friend, the daughter of an elderly couple who were devout believers in God, wouldn't have much time left.
After Adam finished the remaining suturing and finishing work, he walked out of the Operating Room.
How is Gilly?
Rachel wiped away her tears, but her tone was much calmer. "When can I see her?"
"It will be a while longer."
Adam glanced at her, paused, and said, "She wants to go home."
"I know."
Rachel nodded blankly.
"If you need, I can introduce you to a great friend."
Adam tentatively suggested, "Home is where my heart is. If you can help Gilly understand this, and persuade Gilly parents, you can accompany Gilly on her final journey."
"Impossible."
Rachel shook her head. "Nobody can do that."
How will you know if you don't try?
Adam looked at her and said, "My friend is very persuasive."
Why should you help us?
Rachel's eyes lit up with suspicion.
"Because my good friend is a lot like you."
Adam met her gaze honestly and said sincerely, "At this point, either Gilly chooses to stay and keep the promise we made to each other from birth to death."
Either she chooses to return to the community with her parents, receive baptism, and never see you again.
Certainly.
I believe you will most likely choose to let her go in the end, and bear the pain of not being able to see her again or accompany her through the final moments.
But either way, it's a regret.
I don't want you, who are so much like my best friend, to have such regrets.
How did you know I would make that choice?
Rachel's wariness lessened considerably.
"Because you love her, you are true sisters."
Adam sighed, "And she made a choice, didn't she?"
"Is it really possible?"
Rachel was silent for a moment, her voice trembling slightly.
"There is a good chance."
Adam said seriously, "If there is anyone in this world who can do this, then my good friend Juno is definitely the first choice."
"Thank you."
Rachel expressed her gratitude.
"It doesn't matter."
Adam laughed and said, "Promoting truth, goodness and beauty is my hobby. I'll call Juno right now. She's an intern at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston and will be here soon."
After saying that, he picked up the phone and called Juno, briefly explained the situation, and then hung up.
"She'll be here right away."
"I'll go to the ward to keep Gilly company first."
A smile appeared on Rachel's face.
In the ward.
"Hi."
Gilly opened her eyes to find Rachel forcing a smile.
"Dr. Duncan will introduce us to a friend later."
Rachel laughed and said, "I heard she's very persuasive. If she can convince your parents, then we'll all stay with you. If not, then you should go home."
"Xiao Rui..."
Gilly didn't know what to say.
This is what she wanted.
But she couldn't bear to listen any longer.
"They are your parents."
Rachel pursed her lips and forced a smile, "You love them, and they're still here. You know what flying here means to them... If it comes to that, go home."
I think that now that you're in this state, no devil would have the heart to hurt you anymore.
If it really exists.
I swear, I will slay all the demons for you and raze hell to the ground.
At this point, she glanced back at Gilly's parents standing at the door. "Tell the community that I said this!"
Gilly's father avoided Rachel's eyes.
But Gilly's mother could no longer hold back and, defying her religious beliefs, nodded and said, "I will, Rachel. You are a good girl. I will tell your parents that I have seen you, that you are doing well and are happy, and that you will always be such a wonderful girl!"
Gilly's old-fashioned father stood aside, not uttering a word of reprimand, pretending not to see or hear anything.
The true goodness and beauty of human nature ultimately triumphed over rigid and inflexible dogmas.
"But I can't leave you here."
Gilly held Rachel's hand, her voice trembling with tears.
No, you can!
Rachel fought back tears and said in a commanding tone, "You can go home, you can put on your hat, you can get in the carriage, go to the church to be baptized, and leave this world as Mennonite."
"No, I can't do that."
Gilly could no longer hold back and burst into tears.
"Why?"
Rachel laughed and said, "Just because you have to avoid me? Don't worry, you can never avoid me, because I'm right in your heart."
At this point, she pointed to Gilly's heart, then to her own. "You will always be in my heart too. As long as we still think of each other, our promise will never be broken. From birth to death, we will never be apart."
"Waaaaah."
Gilly burst into tears.
"Don't cry."
Rachel hugged her and laughed, "After you go home, I can use your curling iron, no one will fight me for the TV anymore, and your DVD collection will all be mine. I will think of you every day and live happily in the 21st century."
"Hehehe."
Gilly was amused, laughing and crying at the same time.
"Hey! We haven't gotten to that point yet."
Rachel joked, "If Dr. Duncan's friend convinces your parents, then you won't get your hat, white dress, carriage, or anything like that."
"I only want you and Mom and Dad."
Gilly choked back tears as she said, "All I need are you!"
"Then let's look forward to it."
Rachel laughed and said, "If God really exists, he will definitely make the right choice. Now, say hello to your parents."
As she spoke, she released Gilly, stepped aside, walked to the door of the ward, and handed the seat to Gilly's parents.
Hi~
When Gilly saw her parents walking over, she stopped crying and smiled the brightest smile she could muster.
To be able to reunite with your loving parents at the end of your life is truly a great blessing.
Hi, Gilly.
Gilly's mother looked at her daughter, whom she hadn't seen for many years, with boundless joy, took her daughter's hands in her own, and leaned down to kiss them.
Gilly's other hand involuntarily reached out to her father.
"Gilly".
Gilly's father remained as proud as ever, standing tall and not bending down to kiss his daughter's hand, but he held her hand tightly and was reluctant to let go for a long time.
"Don't worry, God will make the right choice."
Adam, who was outside the ward, saw this scene and said to Rachel was standing alone at the door with tears in her eyes.
