Dreamcatcher: The Beginning

Chapter 21: Sorry

Cole's Pov

"You are at home? Dad told me that you are at Luna's place", Sarah comes into my room and sits on my bed.

" I was at her place, and I messed up everything", I tell her.

"What? What did you do?",

" I knew that her Mom was pregnant, but I didn't tell Luna because it was not my place to tell her, and today she found out",

"Ohh! How did she react?",

" She was so hurt and mad at both of us, me and her mother", I regret the movement when I found out that Luna's Mom is pregnant.

"I think she will never forgive me", I tell this, almost to myself.

Sarah walks towards me and hugs me," Oh! Cole, she will forgive you, don't worry", she tells me.

She pulls away from the hug and again sits on the bed, "Can I ask you something?",

" Yeah",

"Is Luna mad because her Mom is pregnant?",

"No! She is mad because we didn't tell her that her Mom is pregnant",

" So that means she wants a sibling?", Sarah asks.

"Yes! She said she would have been the happiest person in the world if her Mom had told her that she is pregnant", How hurt Luna was while saying this, she was on the verge of crying.

" Cole, were you happy when you got to know that Mom was pregnant with me?", Sarah asks slowly, as if she is afraid of my answer.

"Of course, I was happy Sarah, you know, I used to feel lonely before you were born, Mom and Dad always used to fight, you know people say childhood is the best of our life, but my childhood became the best part of my life with your birth, I got a companion in you, and you made my life less lonely", I tell her and Sarah looks at me with watery eyes.

" Awe. Cole", she says, and I hug her. And I realize like me Luna's childhood must be full of loneliness, we all misunderstood Luna we thought she is an only child, she will feel insecure because of her sibling, but like me, she must have needed a companion in that big house.

Pulling away from the hug, I say," Sarah I have to go to meet Luna, I realized something",

"Okay but what?",

" That I was wrong about Luna", I tell her.

Luna's Pov

"Miss Luna, I have brought food for you", Grace says from another side of the door.

I open the door silently, Grace places the plate of food on the table and sits on my bed. I walk to her and place my head on her lap and lay on the bed.

" Why do they both do this Grace?",

"Maybe because they wanted to avoid hurting you",

" Yeah, they did a fantastic job by not wanting to hurt me",

"Miss Luna your mother loves you, so does Mr. Cole and you know that",

" If they loved me, they would have told me the truth, instead of thinking that spoiled Luna will not be able to handle the fact that her mother is expecting a baby", tears drop from my eyes and makes Grace's lap wet.

"Miss Luna, in love people, do foolish things", Grace tells me, placing a kiss on my head.

" Luna!", I hear Cole's voice, and I get up.

"I will bring coffee for you, Mr. Cole", Grace says and leaves.

" I need to talk to you Luna", Cole sits on the bed, I turn my back and I lay down again.

"Luna I am sorry, I am so sorry I failed to understand you like others, I failed to realize that you always wanted a sibling because you are lonely in this house", He also lays down and hugs me, I try to get out from his embrace, but the more I try to get out from his embrace the more tightly he holds me. And at last, I give up not because I forgave him, but because I need him right now, I need his warmth, though at this movement I hate him for hiding from me that my mother was pregnant. I also love him, and I need his love right now, to forget my pain, I need all of him right now.
