Medical Center.

"Adam, how about it?"

As soon as the operating room opened, Lily immediately went up to meet her.

"Sorry, Ted."

Adam shook his head.

"Oh~"

Lily exclaimed immediately.

"It's all my fault."

Matthew blamed himself: "It must be because of my affairs that caused Anna's illness."

"It's not your fault."

Ted smiled abnormally and said, "No one blames us. We have already expected this result, right?"

"Ted, are you okay?"

Lily looked at him worriedly.

"I'm fine."

Ted smiled and said, "I'm fine. At least Anna was laughing at the last moment, didn't she?"

"right!"

Adam glanced at him: "She is happy enough to have you with her this year."

“I didn’t do well enough.”

Ted shook his head and said, "I should have done something better."

"Let's go and meet Anna."

Matthew winked at Adam, nodded when he saw Adam and suggested.

"good."

Ted agreed with a smile.

In the ward.

Anna's body is temporarily placed here and will be sent to the underground morgue later.

"She just seemed to have fallen asleep."

Lily looked out from Matthew's shoulder and sighed.

“Same as last time at Hell Town Funeral Home.”

Ted joked: “Adam, are you sure Anna is really going to heaven this time?

Couldn't have made a mistake again, right?"

"I helped to sort out my appearance."

Adam looked at him: "I'm sure, this time it's true."

Everyone looked at Anna's body for a while, and left at Adam's reminder.

Ted went back with Matthew and Lily.

Before leaving.

"You guys should pay attention to Ted lately."

Adam reminded: "According to Elizabeth Kubler Ross' theory.

When we are on the verge of death or go through catastrophic losses, we all go through five different stages of sadness.

In the first stage, denial and isolation.

Because this loss is unimaginable, we cannot admit that it is true.

Our brains will automatically protect us.

Ted's appearance of accepting with a smile is actually a kind of denial.

He will soon usher in the second phase.

anger!

Angry yourself is a survivor, angry yourself is not doing well enough.

Then there is the third stage.

bargain.

Pray, beg, willing to give everything, and exchange for Anna.

Then there is the fourth stage.

Depressed.

Because this is an irreversible fact.

Ted would be very upset.

Of course, he will eventually reach the fifth stage.

accept!

Time is the best healing medicine.”

"We will always be with Ted."

Matthew said word by word.

"How long does these five stages usually take?"

Lily is worried about Ted's condition.

"Generally more than a month."

Adam pondered, “But everyone’s situation is different.

The relationships with lost lovers are also different.

So these five stages are long and short...

Actually, we don't have to worry too much about Ted.

Although that's not good.

But I don't think Ted used Anna as his life partner or soul mate…”

"Um."

Lily and Matthew looked at each other, nodded, and said softly: "It's a great blessing in misfortune, Ted is just so good.

Not long after he and Anna fell in love, they encountered that kind of terrible thing.

It happened that Anna was diagnosed with cancer and couldn't live long.

Ted immediately proposed to Anna after being emotional.

There is really no deep love between them..."

"Anyway, spend more time with him."

Adam sighed, thinking of Barney's comforting methods, and reminded him again: "Don't let Barney do whatever he wants!

Anna is Ted's wife after all.

This is not something Ted used to be able to compare with so many girlfriends.

Don’t use those vulgar jokes and spoofs to relieve sorrow.

Give Anna a little respect and let Ted mourn her for a while.”

"Um."

Matthew raised his slap: "I still have three slaps here, I can slap Barney's face anytime and anywhere.

As long as he dares to do whatever he wants.

I'll slap him hard!"

"I'm a witness in the face."

Lily also echoed: "I authorize you to have no scruples!"

"I hope I won't finish the slap this time."

Adam smiled.

This slap was also a bet made by Barney and Matthew, who loves to play.

Originally, Matthew should have beaten Barney ten times in a row.
