Loving Lucifer Ep 15: Haunting Nightmares

After five more days in the hospital. I am now finally discharged. I feel like I was reborn when I came out of the hospital building and saw the trees, the road and the people around.

Well, this is literally my second life.

I didn't see Luciano anymore. He didn't go back to the hospital. I should be happy that he is no longer bothering me and I am now safe with my parents. But there is a part in my heart that longs for him.

When we got home, mom and dad brought me directly to my room and told me to take some rest. I tried to decline since I feel fully rested in the hospital but they insisted.

I missed my room. It feels so good to sleep comfortably again.

I lay down in my bed and then suddenly all the things happened in my accident flash back in my mind. It feels so real. I feel so scared.

No please, No! Luke! Stop!

"Sweetheart! Wake up! Agatha!"

"Mom!" I was awaken by my mom and dad.

"It was just a dream baby. We're here." Mom said while wiping away my sweat and tears.

"Who's Luke?" Dad curiously asked me.

Did I say it out loud? My parents look bothered. How can I tell them the things even I, myself couldn't understand.

"I don't know dad. I had a nightmare and its not very clear. I'm sorry to scare you." They didn't look convince. Especially my dad.

"Okay, come with us and we're going to eat our dinner." He said

We all go down and went to our kitchen. We had a nice dinner. Good thing they didn't asked me again about my dream and who Luke is.

After taking my shower. Mom checked my chest and gave me my medicine. I told her that I am good now and she can go to dad and have a good sleep. I know they are more tired than me. I feel sorry for them, I made them so worried and scared.

When mom left the room. I fix my pillow and lay down. I waited for sleep to come. After an hour pretending to be asleep, I decided to turn on my phone and check for any messages instead.

Maybe, this will make me sleepy.

I received a message from Gigi asking me if I'm already home. I responded to her immediately. We spent the next hour chatting. A little later, I told her that its getting late and we should sleep now. She promised that she will drop by some time to visit me.

I turned off my phone and close my eyes.

I saw a man standing near me. But I can't see his face because I'm facing his back and its so dark as well.

"Luciano? Is that you? How are you? Why didn't you come back to the hospital?" I asked him.

The man suddenly turned his back to face me and right there and then I froze. Luke!

It was really Luke! He stretch his arm and reach for my chest. I can't move. There is no voice coming out from my mouth no matter how hard I tried to shout.

Then someone shake me.

"Wake up!"

I gasped. I immediately sit on my bed and hug dad.

"Daddy.." It felt so real. I am so scared. That nightmare is haunting me everytime I sleep.

"I'm not your dad." The voice said.

"Huh?" I separated myself from him and there he was. The man I am looking for the whole time. The man that I thought I will not see anymore.

"Luciano."
