Melanie's Point of View

"Go with you?"

"Yea. I mean after your surgery we can go. Do you really want to sell makeup out of your bed for the rest of your life?"

Well kinda, I mean the pay is good. And I don't have to leave my bed. I see no downside, but I digress.

"Are you sure. You think we're moving to fast. Taking someone you barely know to another country isn't the wisest thing to do."

"Yea, maybe not. But my offer still stands. I want you to come with me. You don't have to tell me right now, just think about it. So are you excited Mel?"

"Excited about what?"

"Your surgery got bumped up to tomorrow."

"I'm ecstatic. Just don't let your hand slip."

"I'm not doing it conflict of interest and all."

"But-"

"But nothing Mel. I can't do it. And I wouldn't want to either."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"What it means is. That I think you're beautiful and you never know how much people notice you because your so damn self conscious. God, your gorgeous. Do you know how hard it is for a man to listen to the girl he loves put herself down all the time. It would be different if you really needed this surgery, but you don't."

"You love me?"

"Of course I fucking love you. Is that all you got out of this conversation?" He rubbed his hands over his face and sighed. "Whatever you decide I will always support you, you know that right?"

"Yea Ethan, I do now." I straddled his waisted and he snuggled me close to him. "That whole yelling at me this is gonna have to stop, you know."

"Mhhhh nope. Not until you finally hear me."

The next morning Ethan parked his car and we walked hand in hand into the hospital. I was so nervous. I would get on that ice cold table and wake up looking like someone new.

"You'll be fine. I promise. You're in great hands." Ethan smiled reassuringly. Any of his doubt from yesterday he didn't show to me. He was so supportive and sweet. "Alright babe this is it. I'll see you when you wake up." He kissed me and gave me a deep hug. I smiled with confidence and made my way down the hall. I changed into my scrubs and laid of the table. 

"It's two face."

"What happened to her face."

"No man will ever look at you again."

"Do you know how hard it is for a man to listen to the girl he loves put herself down all the time?"

"You're gorgeous."

"I love you."

"I'm going to show you how beautiful you are."

I raced out of the OR and ran towards Ethan's office.

"I'm so sorry. I can't do it."

"Can't do what Melanie?"

"I can't have the surgery. I can't do it. The way I see myself shouldn't be affected by how everyone else sees me. I wanna see you what you see. Teach me to love me, like you do."
