Sophie hesitated a bit before asking, "Has it something to do with love?"

*Bella's gaze was far away* Yes...

Sophie turned her gaze to the vast and luminous city of Paris. "I had a love once. Or rather, I still do. But he has vanished mysteriously. And I cannot find him, no matter how hard I search. Before he departed, he left me a note, promising his safe return.
"I've not heard from him since."

*Bella buried her face in her hands* I ran away from him, but he found me and he saved me. But now he's...he's...he could die. And somehow it is all my fault...

"I am so sorry... you probably had nothing to do with it so it is not your fault. But is there no hope, not even a small flicker of light amidst this darkness? Is there nothing that can be done to save him?" Sophie questioned.

If the...if the medicine gets here in time. But it's coming from A-A-America. And I'm not even allowed to see him! *sobs into her hands*

Sophie patted her back. "My mother always told me: do not fear the worst until it is already on you. I have always taken her advice to heart. For you and your love, there is still hope."

*Bella continued to cry* But he has consumption...and everyone in the infirmary's faces...even he looked defeated...and I'm not allowed to see him...and I already miss him.

Consumption. The word resounded in Sophie's head. She had known far too many friends and relatives who had been made victim of the disease. Consumption. Sophie shivered though there was not even a small breeze.
Sophie offered Bella a handkerchief to dry her tears. "Consumption can be treated if detected soon. Was it for him?"

*Bella smiled thinly and wiped her eyes* I don't know. The nurse said she was ordering the medicine right away, but I don't know if she thinks it will take too long or anything.

"Now, it will not do for your love to see you in such low spirits. I am sure that the medicine will arrive in time." A wave of dizziness struck Sophie. She staggered.
"I pray that all goes well for you and your love. Please excuse me; I am not feeling too well. It was a pleasure talking with you. Good-bye, miss." Sophie put a hand to her forehead and walked quickly towards the door that led down from the roof...
