Disolution

Rajan, I'm sure you're well aware

of your condition.

I'm afraid the results of the biopsy

and MRI have determined positive.

Positive for l-leukemia?

Yes, it's what we've all been fearing.

Our whole staff is terribly sorry about this.

We were hoping for a different outcome.

You, Leonard and Richard has been so kind to me.

Thank you for everything.

Is there someone we can call for you?

Any family members you want to tell?

Unfortunately I don't have family, but...

S-so what next?

I just go home and just wait not to wake up next?

Of course not.

We'll schedule further testing

to determine a personalized treatment plan.

There's plenty of work to do for us and yourself.

I'm dreading the worst, doc. (Sighing)

What does the result says?

Is it (heavy breathing) acute or chronic?

Again, with great remorse, I'm afraid it is acute.

So we need to start treatment right away.

Acute.

So, how much time do I have to live?

With some success,

you can beat this and outlive myself.

That's a best-case scenario.

What's the worst-case scenario?

Are you sure you want to know that?

Yes. I wanna know that.

This, this illness can speed up drastically

in the next month or so.

So you could have just two months before...

No, 'til it takes over your immune system.

Two months? (Breathing heavily)

So, I can die tomorrow?

I'm sorry, Rajan.

We'll do what we can.

Hello.

Hello. How are you?

Been well.

It's been a long time. How are you?

- I'm, I'm good. - Okay. You live nearby here?

I mean, not far, but yeah. Nearby.

What about you?

Nearby I would say.

I never knew that.

We never talked.

Yeah. Crazy.

What have you been up to recently?

I'm just doing jobs. What about you?

I'm a financial manager at Wipro.

I see.

You're having a good life?

You, you're...

I'm married. Yeah.

I see. How is he?

He's fine. He, he's good.

Okay. I'll leave you here.

It was nice meeting you.

It was nice running into you too.

Rajan, I'm really sorry

for how things ended between us.

If I could go back and change things,

I'd do things differently.

I'm glad you said that.

I mean, we both could have done things differently

maybe in the next life.

You still have my number, I hope.

I do. Hope to see you around.

Definitely.

Are you okay? You're still here.

I'm okay.

I was just in my head,

maybe still in conversation with you.

Now who has the problems? (Laughing)

- Is that your car? - Yeah.

I never knew that.

If you had known, would you have parked beside?

I guess, yeah.

What are you doing today?

Enjoying a free day.

- Jobs with a free day? - Mm-hm.

Is there any hiring at your place?

Nope.

- Your "nope" hasn't changed. - (laughing) If you say so.

I, I still do remember this.

Oh God. What do you remember?

When a history teacher asked you to have your textbook

to read in the class and you were like, "Nope." (laughing)

You were so in-intense and it was so funny.

Yeah. No, it just slipped out.

I didn't think it was gonna sound that rude.

Thought I'd never been rude.

] That was so funny.

Well, why don't we grab a coffee.

If you say so.

I just keep laughing at that like again and again.

Every time I see that.

Oh, that's good. So...

It's hard.

So, you're not married?

No.

By choice or by chance?

What comes in between is the answer.

Okay. Lemme tell you this.

I met a girl. She was the perfect girl.

That's what I thought.

And we were going well together.

We were about to have childrens together

and then she started pretending having

a psychological problem. - (laughing) oh, I see.

Yeah, I was not ready for that,

but I was not bothered by that.

That's what bothered her.

That I wasn't bothered by.

But looking back, I think I should have done more.

So you let her get away?

That's a nice question.

You can say that she's the one who got away with.

I've also heard that she has a nice comfy job

at the financial institute

and she's also married.

I bet he's in financing too, right?

Like you're probably the power couple

who has the keys to the city.

He's in real estate. Doing well.

Okay. How is he?

Decent.

Yeah?

I'm just realizing we aren't on the same page.

Really?

So after college, things did take a turn for us.

Well, for me at least. I mean, you haven't changed at all.

I've seen better days, I would say.

I've been seeing doctor lately

and I'm not doing well with my family.

I'm so sorry.

You, you have to go home or is nobody waiting at home?

I have to go home.

Okay. Let me walk you to the car then.

Okay.

You have a nice car.

Yeah. Thank you.

When are we meeting again?

Maybe when we hit the same mile. (Laughing)

I think we should.

We should meet?

Yeah.

Okay. It was nice seeing you.

You know when a person is going through a tough times

or is broken, it's very difficult.

But when you see your friend is going through

the same thing, it just makes your heart feel at ease.

It's like we are together in this.

Yeah. Yeah. It made my heart lighter.

Seeing me in a mystery?

Yeah. Yeah.

Seeing you in a worse place than me

made me just feel a little better.

Okay.

Should I hit the pedal?

Oh yeah, for sure. I'll message you.

Sure.
