“He was an amazing man. We first met at a conference, and realised that we were in the same college. Initially when we started getting close, he told me everything– he had financial problems and things at home weren’t good. I was the only person he could ‘talk’ to and I was just drawn to him.
Around that time he fell really sick, and it got worse every day. One day, he went to the doctor and when he came back, he didn’t utter a word. He just packed his bags and went to his hometown. That evening he called me and said, ‘I have stage 3 cancer’. I was shocked, but that’s also when I realised that I liked him.
