House walked and stood beside Hugh a few weeks later. Both of them were silently staring at the actor’s body.
House: I saw your result, looks like you’ll be out for good…
Hugh turned to look at him.
Hugh: Thank you…
House nodded and they glanced back at the body.
Hugh: How about you?
House: <shook his head> I don’t know…
Hugh looked at him as he made his way to the chair in front of the bed. He raised his arms and let it stay behind his neck while looking at his friend’s body.
Hugh: And you can live with that?
House: Live? I am not alive…
Hugh: And you’re okay with that?
House: <sighed> I guess so… ---- I don’t want to be there again. I want to be here…
Hugh: Why?
House: Because… There’s no pain here… I am not miserable and I am alone…
Hugh: Being alone makes you miserable…
House: Tell me, you’re not miserable?
Hugh looked back at his body again.
House: Both of us are. ---- The only difference is that you have mouths to feed and I don’t.
Hugh sighed and sat down beside House as Lisa E, the actress, comes in and took the chair beside his bed.
Hugh: Fine, I am miserable…
House nodded and silence owned them as they watch Lisa stroke Hugh’s hair.
House: She does like you…
Hugh: The world knows…
House: But what they don’t know is that you feel the same…
Hugh turned to look at him and he glanced back and the doctor tapped his back.
House: It’s time to let them know…
Hugh: Would you do the same?
House sighed and his eyes landed on his room where Cuddy was holding his hand.
House: Definitely…
Hugh: But you didn’t when you’re still alive…
House: That’s one of the greatest regret I have… If you want to be like me, feel free to do so…
Hugh sighed and stood beside Lisa.
House: If happiness could be grab any moment, would you do it?
Hugh: Of course…
House: What are you waiting for? --- The moment you wake up, tell her…
Hugh: I can’t… I shouldn’t… I’m married…
House stood up and got his cane.
House: Then it’s either her or your wife… You can’t have two… One will be left with wounds but scars will be healed anyway…
Hugh stood there with no idea what to say since he figured the doctor’s right as House began walking on the empty hospital hallway. He looked at Lisa, the actress, and when he turned to see his friend, there was a sudden light that illuminates the place.
The seguinte thing he knew, he’s now back in his body, slowly opening his eyes. It was Lisa who he first saw, she was smiling back and her eyes nearly flooded with tears.
Lisa: Hugh…
Hugh grunted as Lisa gently hugged him. He turned his face to House’s room when a bursting noise sounded.
Chase: V-fib, cardiac arrest!
Cameron: Get the paddles!
There he saw Cuddy being held por Wilson as Chase, Cameron and the rest of the team tried their best to revive House. When he looked out, there he saw House’s soul staring at the moment and began walking away. He glanced back at the room when he heard a constant and flat sound coming from the coração rate monitor. The moment seemed to be done in a flash before Hugh’s eyes and he was back to reality when Lisa pulled back and looked at him.
Lisa: Jo just went back to ----
He placed a finger to Lisa’s lips.
Hugh: Sshh.. I need to know where she is but I don’t want to…
He said in a gruff and still shakey voice.
Hugh: Lisa, I ----
The end.
House: I saw your result, looks like you’ll be out for good…
Hugh turned to look at him.
