Adriana's Pov
I don't know for how long I will be staying here, in this same bed, and in the same plain white room, seeing the same faces everyday, and with no visitors at all... well I technically requested not to allow visitors here because ever since I came back to reality six days ago, from a coma that lasted twenty one days, I have regretted being strong and overcoming this, just as I woke up and was still uncertain of what have occurred that placed me in a hospital, my answer came right through the door, literally.
When I saw him, it was like I've seen a ghost from my troubled past, all the memories I was struggling to remember hit me hard, bringing back the worst feelings, reminding me exactly of what I have done to make my feelings go away, and how my attempt at ending my own miserable life failed
He didn't change at all, just as hypocritical as ever, I thought he never wanted to see me again yet just as I woke up he was the first person barging into my room to see me? And from what I've heard from nurses that he never left my side throughout my whole state of being here and not here... I thought I disgusted him yet he started kissing me and whispering sweet things to me?
This is exactly why I couldn't take it anymore, why I decided to end all the uncertainty and all the pain. I didn't want to be left alone with my feelings and thoughts consuming me alive.
I shouldn't be here right now, I should be wherever souls go to after death, but life really hates me that it didn't want me leaving so soon, leaving its problems and cruelty.. What else am I supposed to go through?
I tried to move on, I started a fresh start but it didn't work.
Nothing ever works for me
A heard a faint knock on my door followed by the sound of the door opening and footsteps vibrating, that pulled me out of my thoughts and I looked up towards the direction of the door, where I saw my nurse Amalita rushing over to my side with a huge toothy smile spread across her face

"Good morning miss Lockwood! How are you feeling today?!" She chirped and I couldn't help but smile at the petite blonde perky human standing above me
"Please just call me Adriana and I'm feeling way better than yesterday night when you came in and asked me the same question, that's for sure" I said in all honesty
I was actually feeling just okay, well if you of course exclude my inner self, but my outer self was just fine
"I'm so glad! I hoped you'd say that because I have the news you've been waiting for all week! You might get released today, we just need to run some quick tests to make sure everything is normal and then you're free like a birdy!" She spoke happily while doing the regular check ups on me and removing the serum bag that was all drained and sucked by my body
"Finally! That's some news! Really I'm feeling refreshed and ready to leave home!" I said with the same chirpy tone as hers
Home.. Where is home exactly ?
I actually don't have a home, and there's no way I'm going back to Luca's building or to my old job
Awesome now I'm jobless and homeless
Perhaps I should stay in the hospital for another week, or year
"Yay! I'm going to inform your doctor!" She said as she continued to roam around me fixing things and checking up
"Everything looks normal thank God! I'll leave you then, breakfast will brought to you in ten minutes, remember if you need anything-"
"Press the button right here, don't worry I got it" I finished her sentence placing my thumb over the button
"Hahahah fast learner! Alrighty I'll leave you to it then" she started making her way out, right as she reached the door she spun around "oh! I forgot to tell you but you have visitors, we told them you don't want to see anyone but they're not taking no for an answer" she said and I let out a sigh knowing who is out there
Noah and Andres just like everyday
"Ugh please tell both men I don't want to be disturbed and they should give it a rest because I'm not going to allow them in"

"Oh no, it's not Mr. Noah & Mr. Andres this time, there's a man and woman outside-"
"What?! Who?"
"Well the man is pretty known, Luca Di Vaio and the woman she looks like she's in her late forties her name is Rosalinda and she's claiming that she's your mother darling" she said and right after the words left her mouth, mine fell to the floor
My eyes were wide in shock... This can't be true.. What kind of sick joke is this?!
I was about to protest and tell the nurse she must be wrong and mistaken but I was silenced by the door pushing open and Luca's figure appearing, no sign of a woman with him though
"Excuse me? Were you even allowed in?!" Amalita tried to stop him but he pushed through her and was inside, she looked at me searching for my answer on what to do next, I just nodded my head and dismissed her, as she was leaving I heard her ranting sorry a multiple times to someone who was standing in front of her, I couldn't see clearly because her back and luca's front were in my view but what happened next, what I heard next almost gave me a heart attack
"It's fine just let me in!" a feminine voice said loudly and clearly
A voice that I sure as hell recognized, a voice that I haven't heard in what seems like a century
I tried to pinch myself to wake up from whatever dream I was having right now, but the pain felt real and I didn't wake up
The door opened widely and she walked in, that graceful walk of hers...
My heart started beating rapidly and my breathing quickened, I kept slapping myself "WAKE UP WAKE UP WAKE UP!" I screamed but it wasn't working.. This all felt just too real
It can't be real
My mother is dead! She has been dead for months!
I kept slapping myself, harder each time
"Adriana Adriana stop!" Two firm hands caught mine stopping me from slapping my cheeks, and my eyes met Lucas's
"Adriana I need you to calm down" he said but my eyes switched to her direction
She's still here!!
Oh my god oh my god oh my god
I can see ghosts
"LUCA CAN YOU SEE HER TOO?!" I screamed
"Adriana I can, you're not dreaming or hallucinating, this is real, that's your mother" he said and I burst out laughing hysterically
"You finally managed to create clones? HAHAHAHAHAHA, stop lying! My own mother drowned to her death in an ocean colder than her heart"
"Well this is definitely my daughter" I heard her say
"SHUT UP YOU FAKE B*TCH IM NOT YOUR DAUGHTER!" I screamed and I started searching for the button to ring for help but Luca caught my hands again and I kept struggling to release them while profanities screaming at him
"STOP! YOUR MOTHER IS ALIVE SHE WAS NEVER DEAD, NOAH WAS LYING TO YOU OKAY?!" Luca screamed in my face and I just stopped struggling and went mute
My eyes wandered back to her and she was still there, looking very real and alive
No clone could ever pull off my mother's cold features and her striking pose or walk
This is real
My mom... She's here
Noah was lying to me? All this time?
What?
How?
What happened?
How did this work out?
So this is why I've never heard about her death on the news?
He lied to get me to work for him?
I lost my pride for nothing? Over a lie?
I went through all the pain over a lie?
And now? Now she's back?
Why Is she back?
Why is she with Luca?
Is this a game?
This is real
This is real
This is real
My head was aching and my vision wasn't clear, I couldn't focus on anything
Thoughts kept going through my mind
A million questions
Black spots started to appear all around the room and all everything went mute for a second
Then i started hearing my name but I couldn't see anything
The room was spinning around and I felt like I was flying
Then everything went pitch black I couldn't feel anything.
~*~*~*
Spoiler alert: Noah & Adriana drama in the next one!!
