I Can't Fight

Hajime's face was red from crying tonight.
I thought he might be hurting somewhere so I asked him, but he said no.

When I asked  him if it was about his illness, he replied yes.
Are you tired of it?  You can't fight anymore?

His answer was a shock to me.
I can't fight...I want to die...
As he said this, Hajime shed big tears.

In America, the individual's wishes are the most important.
I hurriedly said,  "Please, let's keep fighting.  You'll get better for sure!"

Hajime is really a sweet child.
He said yes.

Although, that was shocking incidnet.
