nervously fidgets with a small pebble, not making eye contact. "Hey, Ash... I've, uh, got something to say. Kinda heavy."
takes a deep breath, looking into BiggParis's eyes "I... I don't know how to say this, but... I've been diagnosed with terminal cancer."
grabs BiggParis's hand, squeezing it tightly "I know, I know... It's hard to believe. But the doctors... they're certain.
Honey… i cant believe that. youre gonna be okay
pauses, tears welling up in his eyes "I wish I could believe that too, Ash. But... I've seen the tests.
can we get a second opinion?
takes a deep breath, looking into BiggParis's eyes "I appreciate your hope, Ash, but... the doctors are confident in their diagnosis.
What do you mean by “confident in their diagnosis”?
takes a moment to collect himself, then speaks with determination "It means that they've run all the necessary tests, and they're certain about the results. They've seen cases like mine before, and unfortunately, the prognosis isn't good.
pauses, taking a deep breath "Yes, it's considered incurable. But that doesn't mean we can't make the most of the time we have left together.

wipes away a tear, stands up from the bench, and takes BiggParis's hand "Let's go home, Ash. I want to spend every moment I can with you."
leans against the car, taking a deep breath "Ash, there's something else I need to tell you. It's been weighing on my heart for a while now..."
takes a step closer to BiggParis, looking into their eyes "I... I've loved you for as long as I can remember, Ash. You're not just my best friend.

reaches out to wipe away BiggParis's tears "I'm sorry for keeping it from you for so long, Ash. I was afraid of losing you.

pulls BiggParis into a tight embrace, holding them close "Thank you, Ash. Thank you for understanding and for still loving me.
