Today is a big day for me. It's almost summer, my dad hasn't gotten his memory back, but he is starting to see us as a family again. He and mom get along very well and I will finally have a cat! It's Saturday and sunny outside and I am going to the store to get a cat! I woke up at 6 am. It's stupid, I know, but I couldn't sleep more. I ate at 7 and prepared breakfast for mom and dad, too. They will be amazed I did all that food: salad with cucumbers and tomatoes, American pancakes with strawberries and cream, fried eggs and lemonade. Today feels like another life for me.

"Mom, dad, you are awake!" I was delighted!

"Helen, dear, it smells so good in here. You made us breakfast?" Mom asked.

"Yes! I can't wait to get a cat!"

"Did she do this all the time?" My father said.

"No. This is a first. Thank you, sweetie!" Mom replied and kissed me on the forehead.

They found out the food was delicious and of course I ate some pancakes with them. Dad was happy he had a daughter like me, a little nostalgic that he didn't remember, but he was sure the memories are going to come back one day. He seemed to have lost his allergies of cats and I was psyched! I went to my room after breakfast to watch some TV because we will leave to the pet store at 11 pm, and now was like 9 in the morning. I opened the door and after I entered I noticed someone was standing on my chair at the computer.

"Who are you?" I yelled.

"Relax." The devil turned towards me and smiled.

"I want you out of here! Today is going to be a good day and you're not part of it!"

"Why are you so cranky with me?"

"You told me I had a dead sister in a note! Is that so insignificant for you?"

"I don't have enough time to deal with your life. I am an angel, if you remember."

"You are an abomination!"

"Now you're talking like this after everything? After all the touches you craved from me and the lies, the adventure?"

"Don't for a second think you own me! Listen, devil, I am not a crazy person. I want to be normal."

"Too late for that, don't you think?"

"Why does it have to be late? I don't want to sell my soul, I don't want to be part of your wicked plans, I don't want an eternity in hell. I might even start believing in God. Is that so hard to understand?"

"Helen, you can't."

"Why the hell not?" I asked hysterically. I was losing my patience. Not that I had much, anyway.

"Because you are the one."

"The one who kills you? Who serves you? Who lives with you? I don't care! Remember that! I don't want any of this and I don't care!"

He just sat there, without smiling, without any expression at all. I was waiting for a fight and harsh words. He approached me and touched my cheek. I closed my eyes and felt it all. I suddenly was someplace else. It was night and there was a pathway with fire lights made of wood and the sky was clear. I could hear the sounds of an owl and the sea. We must have been closer to the sea. There were trees and some houses in the distance and everything seemed to fit. I could feel the fresh air around me and the breeze of the night singing its deepest secrets. This was beautiful. It's the first time Lucifer shows me something beautiful. It looked like I was waiting for someone. I just enjoyed the feelings and the view until I saw him. He had wings. He was beautiful. In his eyes a warm light was making place and I don't know why I looked at my hands. I had different bracelets with green and brown and gold little chains, flowers and light green hearts. I saw I had a simple light brown short dress on me.
