Chapter 13

I had another dream again.

But the girl was not there.

There was a table in front of me, and a jigsaw puzzle on top.

Should I play?

I found the first five piece and put it in the frame, as I put it together, a wave of memories appeared in my mind.

"Ow, ow, ow...."

"A-Are you okay?"

Little Lucas blinked as he saw a blonde girl staring at him worriedly.

The raven head look away, blushing. "I-I'm fine..."

I remember that..

That was the time where Nasia and I met and the time that I fell in love.

Yes, she was my first love.

I saw another piece, and put it together and another memory came into my mind. We were in middle school now, first year.

"Hey, Nasia?"

"Hmm?"

"Do you like me?"

The blonde girl choked on her drink. "L-L-L-L-Like?! N-No... I-It's not like that...."

The raven head look down disappointed.

I was disappointed that time because I thought that she likes me also. I just making my hopes up.

Another piece has been put together with the puzzle. And another memory had appeared.

Why am I dreaming this kind of thing?

"I'm going to confess to her..." The 13 year old Lucas muttered, but then his mother told him that...

They have to move out..

That was my biggest fear, I'll be separated by my bestfriend and first love.

What a bad timing it is..

I never got a chance to tell my feelings to her and tried to ignore her as possible. Because the more that I'll be with her, the more that I want to take her.

There are only five pieces left as I put the sixth one.

"I didn't know that you will move out, huh.." A blonde girl said who is standing in front of my 13 year old self, not meeting my eyes.

'please look up here...'

"Y-Yeah...." Was the thing I could utter.

"That's why you kept ignoring me?"

"......"

She suddenly look up to meet my eyes and grinned.

"Is that so?!"

My 15 year old self blinked. "Huh?"

"I know what you mean!" She poked my nose. I leaned backwards, staring at her confusingly. "Y'know, Lucas..."

"Hm--"

She suddenly hugged me, sobbing.

"Don't you dare do that again.... Are you gonna kill me?!"

I gulped, staring down at her. "I-I didn't mea--"

She kissed me.. She freaking kissed me!!

She let go and smiled like nothing happened.

"Don't you ignore me because you want to forget me, cause I know that you'll be back!"

I stared at her, stunned. How can you be cool like that?

I smiled and pat her head. "Of course!"

And that's goodbye..

I never got to confess, but there will be next time! I know that I'll be back.

I blinked back to the table and slowly put the 2 pieces.

3 pieces to go..

"Ack!"

Now 14 years old, someone bumped into me. I look down and saw a brunette, looking so nervous.

She took a step back. "I'm sorry!!"

I tilted my head, she look somehow familiar...

I shrugged it off and just ignored her..

Is that how I met Jennette?

I completely forgot about that..

That time I was cold as ice berg at everyone, except to my one and only friend, idiotic friend actually.

His name is Axel by the way, but that's not important.

I put 1 piece to the puzzle. 2 more to go..

It's the time that I fell in love with Jennette, I don't know what was the reason but that's it, I love her.

"Hey, Lucas..." She started a conversation.

We were at the rooftop, we became after a month when I met her.

"What is it?"

"Will you go out with me?"

My eyes widened, my head swung to her. "Wha--"

"I really like you..... Like a lot!!" She stammered. "T-That's why..."

I agreed, I was so happy that time but it feels empty.

I stared at the last puzzle in front of me. I gulped, feeling kinda nervous.

Why am I nervous? This is just a puzzle that keeps giving me memories from the past, that all.

Put the last piece to where it belongs, but somehow it didn't fit. I kept putting it but it won't go in.

What's wrong with this freaking puzzle?!

The one who made this is definitely an idiot, a hundred percent idiot!

But then I saw the girl again.

Is she fading again?

Is she gonna leave me like last time?

I jolt up staring at her beautiful eyes.

"It's not the last piece huh?" She said, her voice is so soothing.

I nodded, speechless. This is a dream right?

"Come." She gestured her hand at me. "I'm gonna take you to where it is."

Without hesitation I held her hand, her hand is so soft and warm, I want to stay like this forever.

A light flashes to my eyes and I woke up from my strange dream, staring at the ceiling of my room.

I stood up then a washcloth fell on my lap, it's kinda wet.

I look around and saw no one, Nasia must left me here.

"Just you being here is okay."

Why did I even said that?

"I did that because you're special.."

What kind of special did I even mean?

I heard the door clacked open. I look up and saw the girl from my dreams, holding a tray.

No...

It's Athanasia..

"You're awake?" She smiled.

"No, I'm sleeping with my eyes open."

"Haha.."

She sat beside the bed and put the tray on my bedside table.

"Here you go.. Your porridge." She said, looking shy.

I blinked. "You cooked... again?"

"I thought you were hungry after so..."

Ah....

Thank goodness..

I never thought that it's in front of me the whole time.

I found the last piece.

My life is now complete,

Now I have my last piece.
