she came to his bed

for some reason i keep imagining a story of a cancer patient in the same hospital as the old man, he was always grumpy and never talked to anyone,  because it was his way of defense against a world that left him bitter, but she liked him, understood his hidden kindness, the whole hospital staff tried to make him feel better but that wouldn't work, she on the other hand had been too shy to even talk to him, cause he reminded her of her grandfather, she noticed him reading the bible every night and talking to the image of his late wife about how he wished an angel would just come and take him to her; so as his last days grew close, she summoned up her courage and made a plan with the hospital staff, she would give him an angel to guide him to his wife.
