A sea of doubts

#Chapter19 A sea of doubts

/"Daughter,/" I hear a voice repeat it over and over again, /"please wake up./"

Is my father here? Where am I? I cannot see him.

/"Mauricio, you don't know how sorry I am,/" I hear Lucas say.

What is he doing here? No, not him, please.

I move to try to flee.

/"Daughter, calm down,/" he tells me, and for the first time, I feel his hand touching me.

Am I not dead? I want to open my eyes to see my father, but I can barely lift my eyelids, /"you can do it my girl,/" he encourages me, and I can notice his broken voice.

I try one more time and finally manage to open them. My father smiles at me and squeezes my hand. /"What a joy to be able to see you in the eye!/" he says happily, and I smile shyly, but when I see Lucas, it vanishes.

/"I want him to go!/" I manage to say, even though I think they barely heard me

/"You mean Lucas?/" my father asks me, and then he looks at him.
