The writer

The author’s name is Van Houten and Agustus states that he spoke to the writer’s assistant and is ready to talk to us. Hazel becomes happy after hearing this and goes home to mail the author. And after seeing so much effort, the author himself replies to them.

The author tells that if May tells you all here then the details may be leaked, so I will be able to tell you the ending and you will have to come to me. He states that he lives in Amsterdam.

Amsterdam

But her mother tells her that it will cost a lot to go there and our condition is not right now and your condition is also not good and in this condition I will not send you alone.

They all leave for Amsterdam. When they reaches, they sees what a beautiful place Amsterdam is. The next day they go to meet the writer.

One day after arriving from Amsterdam, suddenly Augustus calls Hazel and asks her to come home and take him to the hospital. Hazel gets nervous after hearing that. When they are both in the hospital, Augustus says that he wants to go to the same picnic place with her.

Hazel realizes that her cancer is now back. And she realizes that now Augustus doesn’t have much time. Because he is now in a wheelchair, his legs are not working.

After 8 days, a call comes to Hazel’s family and they realize that Augustus is no more. On hearing this, Hazel starts crying and breaks down. She attends Augustus’s Funeral and while giving a speech, sees that Van Houten is also here. He tells Hazel that he was in touch with Augustus. Hazel is upset after hearing this and begins to leave, when she sits in her car, then the writer also goes and gives her a letter.

Hazel sees that Van Houghton is drunk, she becomes angry and crushes the letter and throws it away. Then she goes away, then Issac comes and asks if she have read that letter or not. He tells her that Augustus gave it to the van houten to give it to you. Then she starts searching for the letter, reads it and remembers Augustus.
