Angel of Light [English Version] (Completed)

Chapter 16: Trust me

- Raven.... hey... Good morning - Raven tried to open her eyes, but it was difficult, she could hear the voice that was speaking to her, but she felt that her eyes were very heavy.

- Raven... wake up!

Finally, Raven, managed to open her eyes but barely, and found that angelic image standing over her, to which she had fallen asleep, but the light around Lexa was killing her. It dazzled her and she could not see clearly. She tried to protect her eyes from the powerful light by placing her arm over her eyes, as she felt a hand grab her other arm.

- Are you feeling fine? You've slept like a rock all night - Dr. Woods said, smiling slightly as Raven finally managed to recognize her, as she tried to sit up in the bed.

- Shit! What happened?! I saw you... Nahhhh it does not matter, what time is it?

- It's 7:45, I'm sorry to wake you up, but I didn't know if you have to go to work.

- Wait a moment... You're telling me that I slept all night, while you stayed up all night watching over Ontari?!

- Yes, when I returned to the room, you were sound asleep, so I carefully removed the tubes, and let you sleep. You looked very tired.

Raven stopped for a moment to look at those beautiful green eyes that shine, and that still conveyed that strange feeling that she couldn't understand very well, but that filled her with a feeling of peace and confidence, as she remembered immediately what she had lived, what she had seen.

As Raven looked at Lexa and tried to deal with her confusion about what had happened the previous evening, she wanted to ask Lexa, but how the hell did she ask something like that? Was the famous Dr. Woods really someone special?

Raven had read that many of Lexa's patients called her "Angel of Light." But the detective imagined that the nickname was because of Lexa's ability to restore sight to those blind patients, who when they saw the light again, obviously the first face they saw was that of the doctor.

But what she had witnessed the night before, her mind was spinning as she tried to process what had happened, and how was that possible? That woman looking at her with those green eyes so penetrating, they told her so much, and they made her somehow feel sensations throughout her whole body.

"God!" Raven said to herself, "I must be hallucinating, maybe having talked about Granny Maria, and her beliefs and teachings of the Angels that may be among us, maybe led her to dream about them with the image of the beautiful Dr. Woods". Whatever said to herself, shaking a little her head.

- Raven, what is wrong,? You look a little pale... I made breakfast. Come on, I'll wait for you in the kitchen - Lexa said as she started to get up from the bed, while Raven was still in her trance, something that she began to hate, as she felt like a hypnotized idiot.

- No, I... I'm fine, i just feel strange but it's nothing so do not worry and thanks for letting me sleep, you did not have to, you must be tired. Have breakfast with me then go home to rest, you earned it.

- Raven, thank you for your offer, but I want to stay until Ontari wakes up, she may need me. I'll sleep on the couch later.

- Well, do what you like... After all, I'm not your mother. I'll be in the kitchen in a few minutes.

A few minutes later Raven still yawning, entered the kitchen where an impressive breakfast was waiting. Her eyes opened wide as she stared with her mouth open at an incredible kind of breakfast buffet, like those in expensive hotels. Freshly made pancakes, various cold meats and cheese, jam, butter, scrambled eggs, bacon, orange juice, milk, yogurt and cereals, and also fruits. "Where the fuck had all that food come from?" Raven doubted that someone like Ontari had all that food in the refrigerator. Lexa was sitting at the table looking at her with her iPhone, unaware of Raven's presence.
