Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 738 The Edge of Life and Death
"Felix."

"Felix!"

"Calm down, tell me first, what happened?"

Levi quickly caught on and brought the situation under control with an emergency brake.

But on the other end of the phone, Felix was in deep helplessness.

"I don't know, I just... I'm at Hudson and Canal. I, I might need a little help."

Wait, it's only two blocks away from Levi's apartment. Is Felix planning to come to see him? Is this why Felix called him?

Immediately, Levi said directly, "Felix, stay where you are and wait for me."

After hanging up the phone, Levi rushed out and left the apartment through the hall.

The apartment was noisy and immersed in the cheerful atmosphere of the upcoming game. Only Mahomes noticed Levi's figure, but before he could react, Levi had already left. He looked around in surprise, but found that no one noticed anything unusual.

Kelce was an exception. He also noticed it, but he looked at Mahomes in confusion and shrugged to show that he knew nothing.

Tap tap tap, tap tap tap.

Run all the way.

Levi sprinted in the strong wind and arrived near the intersection. He saw the car from a distance. It was crookedly parked on the shoulder of the road, avoiding the main road and not affecting traffic, but he could immediately see that it was abnormal.

The situation is not good.

Levi's heart was beating wildly. It was only a short distance, but he could feel the energy in his blood burning wildly due to the tension and anxiety.

"Felix."

Levi slammed the driver's window hard, trying to wake up Felix who was lying on the steering wheel.

"Felix!"

The car door opened.

Levi suddenly grabbed the handle and opened the car door. After a quick scan, Felix was sweating profusely, as if he had been fished out of the water. His pale cheeks were tinged with an abnormal red, which formed a sharp contrast with his pale lips. He looked gray.

"Felix, speak up, what's going on? What's wrong with you?"

Felix raised his head and looked at Levi with pain and despair with his red eyes. He didn't say anything, but just pulled up his shirt, revealing a wound on his abdomen.

Levi knew nothing about cancer treatment. This looked like a treatment or surgical wound, neatly bandaged. However, the skin outside the bandage was waxy yellow with a layer of gray and a dark red color. Even without medical knowledge, one could tell.

"Felix, the wound is infected, we need to call for help..."

Felix waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, no, don't..."

vomit.

Before he could finish his words, Felix began to vomit, spitting out a ball of turbid, thick dark green liquid that dripped onto his clothes, as if all his internal organs were about to come out.

vomit.

Felix struggled to look at Levi and begged, "Don't call 911, no... don't call my mother, don't... Levi, please..."

Levi was stunned for a moment, and his fingers stopped when he took out his phone and was about to dial a number, "Felix, what happened?"

Felix lay limply on the steering wheel and tilted his head to look at Levi, "I, I just want to give you the jersey that Annie and the others drew."

"They painted it by hand. It took them a whole afternoon. Each of us participated, not just you, but others as well."

"We...we want to cheer you on..."

"But... I have no way... I don't know what happened... I'm useless, I'm really useless..."

"Please, don't tell mom. I just want to prove that I'm not useless. I can do this by myself. I don't need mom to take care of me for everything. If mom knew..."

"If I go into the intensive care unit, I won't be able to go to Arrowhead Stadium to watch the game, Levi, please, please..."

The words were fragmented. Felix's face was red, his breath was weak, and he was sweating profusely. It seemed that one could clearly see that his vitality was draining away bit by bit.

Tears. Snot. Saliva. Vomit.

All mixed together, with red eyes, Felix looked at Levi in ​​despair and pain.

Levi shook his head and took a deep breath, "Felix, let's breathe and call 911."

Felix, "No!"

Levi, “I have to do this.”

Felix wailed desperately, "No..."

But Levi had already turned around and pulled out his cell phone. "911, I need an ambulance, Hudson and Canal. My name is Levi, my friend is in critical condition, please hurry up, okay?"

Felix pounded the steering wheel hard. “I hate myself… ah… ah… ah…”

He hit it again and again, using all his strength, but he couldn't kill even a mosquito.

Levi hung up the phone and looked at Felix who was struggling in pain——

This is the first time.

This was the first time Levi had seen another side of Felix since he had known him. Not the one with a permanent smile on his face, bright eyes, or confidence, but a child who had to face his own death before he reached adulthood, with every day stolen from the fingers of death.

Felix wanted to always maintain his humor and courage, to face death positively and cheerfully, and to appear calm and composed until the very last moment, but... the reality was not like that.

Although everyone knows how terrible cancer is, only the relatives and friends who truly accompany the patient can understand the hideousness and terror of the disease.

They will seep into life little by little, and then make yourself and everyone around you become unrecognizable and fall into despair uncontrollably.

All this chicken soup for the soul is nonsense.

The ambulance finally arrived and the first aid personnel recognized Levi immediately, but there was no time to get excited. They showed their professionalism, lifted Felix out of the driver's seat and put him in the ambulance, and started to treat the wound and give Felix an infusion.

Levi also got in the car.

Looking at Felix lying on the hospital bed in a confused state, Levi swallowed all the words in his throat. He didn't know what to say.

Come on? Fight? Hold on a little longer?
These words seem so hypocritical and so light at this moment, without any power at all.

In the face of birth, aging, sickness and death, human beings seem so powerless and so insignificant.

"Eh...ah..."

"It hurts so much. Wuuwuwu, I, I really hurt, I'm sorry... I'm sorry..."

Felix, who was always sunny and brave, now had tears falling from his eyes. He sobbed softly, and his will was blurred.

He clenched his teeth and tried his best, but he still couldn't keep his back straight.

"Mom, it really hurts..."

This is too cruel.

Levi couldn't imagine what Felix was going through, and he couldn't imagine what Karen had been through over the years.

Death was more clear than ever before. When they looked up, they seemed to be able to see the god of death standing at the end of the bed, overlooking the struggles of these ants.

Taking a deep breath, Levi managed to regain his sanity.

"It's okay, it's okay, Felix."

"There's no need to apologize. You did well. You're doing great now. You know, now I finally understand why you are a true chief, so brave and so strong. Just hold on a little longer, just a little longer."

"God, imagine how happy and delighted the players will be when they see the jerseys you prepared. We always admire your courage..."
