boy- then why did you break up with me?
nurse- young man, visiting hours are over.
BOY LEAVES, GIRL IS TAKEN OFF LIFE SUPPORT, AND PASSES AWAY.
but what the boy didn't know is that the girl only asked him those questions so she could hear him say it one last time, and she only broke up with him because she knew she only had 3 more weeks to live, she thought it would cause him less pain and give him time to get over her before she died.
NEXT DAY
the boy was found dead with a gun in his hand..with a note in the other...
THE NOTE SAID:
"i told her i would take a bullet for her,
just like she said she would die for me... "
