Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 778 Falling apart
The corridor was long and narrow, and empty, with white walls and pale lights, blurring the boundaries and stretching as far as the eye could see. It seemed to extend infinitely to the end of the world.

I couldn't help but lighten my footsteps, but the rustling sound still echoed in the silent space. A strange and evil aura crept up my arms, goose bumps appeared crazily, and my hair stood up.

From a distance, Levi saw Jenna at a glance.

That woman who was always elegant and quiet, no matter how tired, painful or helpless she was, her hair was always neat and her clothes were always clean. Her thin shoulders stood straight like a poplar. She faced all the wind and rain with her head held high and never lost her composure.

At this moment, she was sitting hunched on the chair, her shoulders seemed to collapse as if they could no longer bear the weight, the hair on her temples was scattered and untied, her eyes were staring blankly ahead, and she had no spirit left.

His face was pale, his eyes were red, his dry lips were cracked with grooves and covered with layers of dead skin, but it didn't seem to matter now.

It’s just a figure, but it’s hard to look at.

Kelsey slammed on the brakes and stopped, turning around and couldn't bear to watch any more; Mahomes looked at Jenna helplessly, but couldn't help.

Levi took a deep breath, regained his sanity, came to Jenna, squatted down carefully, found those eyes in the void, and called out softly.

"Jenna?"

However, Jenna did not react. Even though Levi was right in front of her, her eyes were unfocused, as if they could penetrate Levi and fall on a black hole of nothingness.

No soul in sight.

There was just a hint of soreness in those eyes, but not a single tear could be seen.

Levi could hardly suppress his sadness. He didn't even have the heart to disturb Jenna. He just felt it was cruel. However, he was also not sure whether it was a better choice to just let Jenna lose herself in sadness.

Finally, Levi patted Jenna's knee gently.

Jenna was startled and took a breath, like a startled butterfly. Her eyes scanned and searched randomly, and finally fell on Levi's face in panic. She grabbed a ray of light in the darkness, and the corners of her mouth rose dryly, revealing a forced smile.

A ray of hope lit up in those red eyes.

"Ah, Levi..."

"Levi! You're here, Annie... Annie is waiting for you."

"Annie? Annie? Levi is here, Annie!"

Jenna looked around frantically, unable to focus her eyes. Like a drowning person, she shouted and slapped the water randomly.

Levi was just sad.

Levi quickly patted Jenna's arm again to calm her down.

"Don't worry, I'll find Annie."

"Remember? Annie loves hide-and-seek the most. She always hopes that we can find her. I'm the best at this. Leave it to me."

Jenna was a little confused, but she still tried to convince herself, "Annie likes it. Anne likes it. I know, Anne likes it the most."

He repeated it over and over again, and then sat there quietly, swaying his body back and forth, muttering to himself.

Levi couldn't bear it either, so he stood up and turned around to see Jeff standing at the door of the ward.

Jeff was wiping his eyes, wiping them randomly with his palms, backs of his hands and forearms, trying to wipe away all the tears and snot, but he still looked terribly haggard.

"I'm sorry, Jenna...she..."

Jeff tried to explain and apologize, but the words were stuck in his throat and he didn't know how to continue, hanging in the air.

Levi nodded slightly and used his eyes to stop Jeff from continuing to explain. Instead, he looked into the ward and asked, "What happened?"

Jeff turned around and followed Levi's gaze, took a deep breath but didn't exhale, then raised his hand and scratched his hair hard.

“Cancer cells happened.”

"The condition worsened and began to attack her internal organs, then her heart, until her body could no longer bear it." "Annie... was in pain, unimaginable pain, but she didn't cry or shout, she was just worried about me and Jenna..."

"Oh, God..."

Jeff's words became fragmented. He tried his best to control himself. He took deep breaths, kept taking deep breaths, and his whole body was tense. However, the pain firmly controlled his heart and could not be described in words.

"Three hours? Or four hours? Or six hours?"

"I... I don't remember... I hope Annie can continue to grow up, but... but... at least Annie is no longer in pain..."

"Oh, Jesus Christ, I can't, I just... I just... I can't..."

Jeff no longer cared about being polite. He turned around and faced the wall. He just stood there in a daze, leaving only his back, shaking uncontrollably.

Levi's heart was gripped tightly.

He had no way of imagining what kind of pain and torture Anne had gone through. The scene described in just a few words choked him.

Perhaps, they shouldn't be so surprised.

Remember? The reason why Levi and Annie met.

Felix said that one of his friends had a worsening condition and hoped to meet with Levi. Levi agreed. That friend was Anne.

From that time on, things were going badly for Anne.

but.

Since they met, Anne had always been full of energy and vitality, and she didn't look like she was suffering from illness at all, so much so that they had completely forgotten that Anne was fighting cancer, and she had long been accustomed to it in her short life.

Until one day, she couldn't hold on any longer.

This fact instantly made Levi focus deeply. He froze in place. He tried to close his fingertips and clench his fists, but found that his fingers could not move.

Suddenly, Jeff turned to look at Levi, trying to say something, but still couldn't, so he turned back to face the wall and muttered to himself.

"I should have let her watch the game. I should have fulfilled her wish. I'm just... I'm too selfish. I just want her to be fine. I just want to see her jumping around. Then I imprisoned her in a warm house, but this didn't help..."

"This is not going to help at all. I...I shouldn't have stopped her..."

again and again.

Again and again.

Those mixed emotions were churning in my internal organs, tormenting my nerves.

Despair. Regret. Pain. Confusion. Struggle.

Jeff was falling apart, bit by bit, and Levi couldn't help.

Levi took a deep breath and said, "Jeff, can I go in and see Annie?"

Jeff turned back hurriedly, "Of course. Of course! Annie should be waiting for you." His gaze did not linger at all, and he turned his head back to continue facing the wall.

Levi tried to comfort Jeff.

But suddenly, he found that at this moment, any comfort and any persuasion were pale and powerless, and might even be cruel and ruthless. They were still immersed in sorrow, they were still immersed in pain, and they had not had time to accept and digest it. How could they forget it?
Even just saying "come on" can become a heavy burden.

Because no one knows what kind of pain the Gallas couple have experienced, and no one knows how much suffering they are in at this moment. They no longer have the strength to continue. They just need some time and space to let them float in the sadness. That's all.

Those light words have no power at all in the face of real sadness and pain.
