Something Cancer

I was holding a gaming device where a UMD-like thing of a popular game is inserted. The device looked like a small toy truck though. I was standing in line outside an arcade-like place where the online version of the game may be played and we can all fight against each other. Suddenly, I found this guy we shall call Mr. White Chicken and he was also going to play. I was so surprised to find him there because he just isn’t the type to spend time on such things. In the past, in real life, we had some sort of fling. He is much older than I am and treated me like a princess, but it all ended really badly. So in the gaming place, we were polite to each other and said our hi’s and hellos. Inside, I chose a station and I realized it was near his. Then, as an attendant prepared our stations for the game, Mr. White Chicken took my hand and pulled my chair towards him, and held my hand tightly, almost tenderly. He was just quiet for a while and took a deep breath. I felt that all this time he was never really upset with me but had always been fond of me. Finally he spoke and said he is dying of Melian? Mesian? Mecian? cancer, and he just wanted to tell me how much I have meant to him all this time. I felt sad, but only briefly, and decided not to dwell on it. I simply focused on the joy of knowing that he has had this affection for me all this time, when I thought he completely despised me.
