Carlos was startled that someone had actually gotten up to see him after… whatever that mess was that was in his head. He felt awful, having woken her up. “Oh, uh… Sorry. I… It’s okay. Everything’s okay. You, uh… you should go back to sleep.”
Of course, Luci smiled.
The girl was in a land of a carefree life. At the moment at least.
Sleep can take you to a wonderful land of dreams, yet those dreams can be poisoned with negative emotions and thoughts if not handled correctly. Luci knew that. It was basic knowledge for the young girl, since she experienced it multiple times before.
Luci had nodded, smiling at the thought of going back to sleep, back to a land where currently, things were blank.
“Stop saying sorry. It was my will to come check on you..”
“I know it was, Luci,” Carlos told her with a kind smile. “But wandering around at night out here can be a little dangerous too. I mean… You wouldn’t wanna fall in the lake at all, would you?” He inflected the last sentence with a humorous tone, to show he was completely teasing.
He grabbed his phone and shook hit, bringing on the flashlight and shining it in front of him.
“Did you wake Angela, by any chance?” he asked her.
