Behind the Red Jacket

CHAPTER 9 Finale

          Cyril cried while holding the dying Lucas. His blood was flowing non-stop on the floor.

"LUCAS!" Cyril cried.

Cyril cried harder then she felt her head aching and she's being dizzy. Then Cyril blackout.

Cyril slightly opened her eyes. She saw a white ceiling. She can hear people's voices. She remembered Lucas. 'What happened to him? ' She thought.

"L-Lucas..." she uttered in her weak voice.

Then Cyril felt someone went near to her.

"Cyril can you hear me? If you can hear me please move your left fingers."

'It was Lucas' voice. He's alive' Cyril thought and move her left fingers.

"Now open your eyes please."

Cyril opened her eyes and looked around. She saw Lucas wearing a doctor's uniform. 'Why is he wearing that? He got stabbed, he should be resting' she thought.

"L-Lucas..."

Lucas smiled brightly, something Cyril never seen before. 'Lucas looks optimistic, why? Is it because he's alive and safe and sound after his encounter with Mark?' she thought.

"OMG! I'm so happy. You remember me Cyril. I thought you would forget about me", Lucas said happily.

"Why would I forget about you? You almost got killed because of me. Don't you know how nervous and worried I am that night?" Cyril said eyes filled with tears.

Lucas scratched his neck and looked at Cyril worriedly.

"Cyril...maybe you really forgotten what happened to you."

"What?!No! You're the one who forgot something Lucas. Don't you remembered Yoroung?"

"Yoroung...I know someone named Yoroung. She's a patient here before but she died because of brain cancer stage 4."

"Lucas?" Cyril sighed. She felt like she's in other world. 'Why can't Lucas remember everything? ' She asked herself.

"Maybe...maybe what you remembered was just your dream", Lucas said.

"What are you saying?! It's not a dream..."

"b-but...Cyril...you're here in the hospital sleeping for almost 1 month. You got involved in a car accident and the other parts of your head was affected. The head doctor of this hospital assumed that you will get an amnesia."

"S-So...that's all a dream...who are you?"

"I'm Lucas . I'm your best friend since 8 years old. Wait, there's someone who badly wants to see you awake and misses you so much."

"Who?"

"Your beloved boyfriend. Wait, I'll just call him outside."

Lucas went outside and a man entered. He looked at Cyril, he smiled sweetly at her. He was wearing a red jacket.

"M-Mark..."
