Our souls were one, if you must know. And nothing will ever separate them.

- "so where to start... I think the trigger is when mom,... When she left him, the first time. He came to see me a few weeks later, and in the middle of the intervention he threw in my face that the family was imploding and that I was 'playing' captain... He pulled me by the hair in front of... My colleagues... And I don't know why, but at that moment, I thought that his behavior was not acceptable... More than 30 years to realize this... Can you believe it...

And from then on we hardly spoke. And then I asked..." She had turned her head towards her bedroom, "...to Carina to marry me.... And I went to see him, one last time, as if to cut the ties. And to tell Mom to leave, because she had gone back with... And... He obviously didn't like it... He followed me, actually he followed us, I found out a few weeks ago, I ran into the police lieutenant in charge of my case in intervention and we talked..."

/Flashback/

Maya was on an intervention, a man and his wife had been stabbed and left for dead.

- "Captain Maya Bishop, if I expected that!"

- "Lieutenant Decker! How are you?"

- "Well thank you, but you're the one to ask?"

- "very well thank you."

- "I'd like you to meet my teammate..."

- "delighted Lucifer Morningstar"

- "Lucifer morn... As ... Forget it... Enchanted"

He then shook her hand: "Tell me Maya what is your greatest desire?"

- "to make Carina happy, forever" she said, and then said, "what was that?!"

- "stop!" Said Chloe has his spouse. "Sorry Lucifer tends to have that effect there" she replied to the captain before adding, "so you and Carina?!"

- "Yes, I recently learned that we were engaged... Before I was attacked..."

- "hummm ..."

- "Did you know about this?!"

- "I had to, I needed someone to make a complaint and other ... Details, identifications for example..."

- "ok, so I'm the only stupid who thought she lost the love of her life and still fell in love with her"

- "a blessing in disguise, right? You fell in love again"

- "we're going to see the positive side."

- "and then it's okay? The memory... All that..."

- "yes, I remember some things, and I was told others, Carina tells me our story. My colleagues, our interventions, you told me that they had followed me and his partner for weeks"

- "had followed you"

- "yes that's what I'm saying"

- "no, you, as in you two"

- "What?! They went after Carina?"

-"No, but I think it was their idea... She was also being followed. Percy, even continued after your assault, which is how we were able to put the pieces together... "

- "why didn't anyone tell me this?"

- "you already have a lot on your mind, maybe you didn't need to add to it"
