The Last Wish
[Damien sits on a chair, his body tense. He inserts the flash drive into his laptop. His fingers tremble as he clicks ‘Play.’ The screen flickers—then, there she is. His Isabella.]
[In the video, Isabella is lying on a hospital bed, being wheeled toward the operating room. She smiles weakly at the camera.]
Isabella Whitmore( ML (dead Wife)
(softly smiling): "Hello, hubby… How are you doing?😀😀📹
[Damien clenches his jaw, whispering.]
Damien Whitmore( ML)
"No… Without you, I’m not doing well.🥺🥺
Isabella Whitmore( ML (dead Wife)
(chuckling faintly): "I know you’re my strong husband. You must be doing fine. And… how is our baby? Is he healthy? He must look like you.😆😆📹
[Damien’s vision blurs. His hands tighten into fists.]
Damien Whitmore( ML)
(voice breaking): "He does… but he needed you, bella. We needed you.🥺🥺
[Isabella’s smile falters. She takes a deep breath, her eyes filled with sorrow.]
Isabella Whitmore( ML (dead Wife)
I know you’ll receive this video after my death… and I know you’ll ask how I knew. Because… I was weak, Damien. Too weak to carry our child.😔😔📹
[Damien’s whole body tenses. His heart pounds painfully.]
Isabella Whitmore( ML (dead Wife)
I’m so sorry for lying to you for so long… for pretending everything was okay. Because if you had known, you would have never let our baby come into this world.🥺🥺📹
Damien Whitmore( ML)
(whispers through gritted teeth): "Damn right, I wouldn’t❄️❄️
Isabella Whitmore( ML (dead Wife)
(teary-eyed): "I’m sorry, hubby… please forgive me. But… please, don’t hate our baby.😢😢📹
Damien Whitmore( ML)
(shaking his head violently): "Never… never, bella.
Isabella Whitmore( ML (dead Wife)
(smiling sadly): "You’re seeing this video after six months… because I didn’t want you to blame Mom. I asked her to keep it from you. Because if you saw it right after my death, I knew you wouldn’t be able to love our son.😀😀📹
[Damien gasps, realizing how well she had known him. His grip on the table tightens, veins popping in his arms.]
Isabella Whitmore( ML (dead Wife)
(pleading): And, Damien… please fulfill my last wish.😢😢
Damien Whitmore( ML)
(hoarse whisper): "No… don’t say it.😢😢
Isabella Whitmore( ML (dead Wife)
Please marry someone.🙏🙏
Damien Whitmore( ML)
(shouting at the screen): "I will NEVER!"😡😡
Isabella Whitmore( ML (dead Wife)
(smiling knowingly): "I know your answer. But… you promised me, Damien. You always fulfill my wishes… and this is my last one.😢😢
[Damien’s breath shudders. His entire body trembles with anger, pain, and helplessness.]
Isabella Whitmore( ML (dead Wife)
(voice breaking) 😿😿: "Please, hubby… move on. You have my swear. Please, do it for me.
Damien Whitmore( ML)
(screaming in agony): "WHY, ISABELLA?! WHY ARE YOU ASKING ME TO DO SOMETHING I CAN’T?!😡😡
[On the screen, Isabella takes a deep breath, tears in her eyes.]
Isabella Whitmore( ML (dead Wife)
I know you will fulfill my last wish, Damien. And… I love you. Always. Please tell our baby… that his mama loves him so much.😊😊
[Damien freezes. His whole world shatters. His chest feels like it’s caving in. And then—rage.]
[He flips the table, throws the laptop against the wall. Bookshelves, lamps, chairs—everything is destroyed as he roars in agony.]
Damien Whitmore( ML)
(screaming): "WHY?! WHY, ISABELLA?!"
[His breathing is ragged. His fists are bloodied from punching the walls. His whole body shakes as he collapses to the ground.]
[In the darkness of his room, only his broken sobs remain.]
