I began treatment,

As my stomach pain worsened and the cancer cells seemed to have spread, my entire body ached.

The doctor prescribed many painkillers, including IV drips, mainly to alleviate the suffering.

But who could ease the pain in my heart?

I collapsed on the balcony, frightening Caelan.

The doctor said, "You should call your family to come. Your condition is very serious now."

Caelan followed up on the doctor's words, "Yeah, when you fainted, we checked your records. You didn't fill in any family information."

I have no family, and no home anymore.

That day, as I watched the sunset, I transferred $100,000 to Caelan.

Caelan looked at me, puzzled.

"Brother Frost, I can't accept this."

"It's okay. Just do me a favor and take care of my body after I'm gone."

"Scatter my ashes in this ocean, will you?"

I gazed at the distant sea, imagining myself floating freely in the ocean.

Perhaps this would be my best final resting place.
