Louisa's Story (2)

✧✧☆✧✧☆✧✧☆✧✧☆✧✧

"H-Hey, why are you cwyinggg? I might cry too—!"

Louisa had hugged him, and had let out her cry. Adrien was taken aback, and managed to go back to his senses and was rubbing her back and the other hand, caressing her hair.

"Shh...shh...it's alright, you can let it allll out. I'm here, I'm here..."

He was saying soothing words to her, and she felt warm, and cried harder. Adrien was shocked. 'Why is she crying harder!?' He panicked mentally.

"D-Did I say something bad...?"

Louisa shook her head and hugged him tighter. He felt relieved and tried to comfort her all the way.

He didn't know how long has it been, but felt like time was going fast. But eventually his ring beeped. 'Oh no, I can't leave just yet!'
"I'm sorry to say this, but hold on, alright? I'll be going to the bathroom first."

She slowly nods and sat up waiting.

He hurriedly went to the bathroom, closed and locked it as he went back to normal.
Plagg came out, asking for cheese.
"Here, and be fast! I can't just walk out as Adrien here!" He whispers.

After a minute he transformed and went to her directly. "Sorry to keep you waiting. Hehe." He sat beside her once more, but this time, he wrapped his arm over her shoulders, and slowly she placed her head on his shoulder, sniffing.

"So...can I ask why is that beautiful face of yours stained with tears?"
"My parents are leaving again. And for two months..."
"Hmm?"
"I'm afraid..."
"Why? They're only leaving, aren't they? And they'd come back! After uhm, two months.."
"They almost died before..." she whispered to herself, and he caught the statement. She was shaking.

"When I was 10, my p-parents we're coming home from their vacation, when a d-drunk driver was speeding up to them, even though the traffic light was red from their side, and crashed on them, a-and—" she broke down once more covering her face.

"I-It's okay if you won't say those parts. It's all up to you..."

She nods.

"They were in the Intensive Care Unit for a long time, b-because yo-you know, b-blood loss, and they won't allow me to see them, because they think that I might break more.."

She wipes her tears.

"...10 year old me back then was scared of one of them or both leaving even if only they were only going to the groceries and all. I was traumatized, that I even didn't even wanna go to school. But as I grew up, the fear was leaving but the fact that they're leaving m-makes me r-remember..."

"Mommy!!?? Daddy!!? Wake up!!!" She was shouting outside of the room, with their maid, holding her back.

Blood bag, wires and tubes were present, and both couples had their eyes closed.

—

"Thank you for waiting."

One of the maids stood up.

"Both of them are still in critical condition, but we are doing our best. We will contact you if any progress had happened."

The doctor looks at the 10 year old girl, her face stained with tears, and was blankly staring at the floor.

The doctor ruffles her hair. "It's okay, kid. We'll try our best to make your mommy and daddy open their eyes once more." The doctor smiles.

"I'll be going ma'am. Keep safe."

Adrien hugs her, and she wrapped her arms around his torso.

Then her heard a muffled yawn.

'Oh? She goes sleepy after crying?'

"Louisa? Are you about to sleep?"

"...."

No answer.

"Louisa? Loui? Mademoiselle?"

"...t..ha..nk...y..ou..."

He had barely caught the words.
He smiles, and he didn't care how many times he had. "Claws in." He whispers.

He goes back to his normal form and Plagg came flying out. "Hmph. Couples."

"Shut up, Plagg. I'm only being a friend."

"Whatever you say, kid."

Adrien looks at the girl hugging him.
"Is she actually asleep?" He asks himself.

He slowly and carefully carries her bridal style. 'Definitely is sleeping.'

He placed her gently on her bed and covered her body in her blanket. She stirred and mumbled, "Chat Noir..."

He sat on her bed, just like what happened last night.

"Someday, I'll be Adrien visiting instead of Chat Noir.

See you again tomorrow. I'll be waiting."
