Strangers

I reach towards Lucifer's mansion, as I parked the car

I approach Iben, Lucifer's executive of security

"Is Lucifer is home Iben" I quizzed him

He shook his head " Sir, is not home yet" he notified me and I nodded and lead towards the empty roadway, I remained to stand near a tree in front of the mansion, I paced around as waiting for Lucifer, two hours passed there appeared no sign of him, I sit and rest my head over the tree and promptly, my eyes become heavy as, into a deep sleep

I startle awake when; I heard the sound of the car; I endorsed my vision and peered up

It's Lucifer's car, I saw Lucifer there, I stand up and run towards there as guards are opening the main entrance gate of the mansion

I quickly reach his car and knocked over the window, he has to listen to me

When Lucifer heard the sound, he looked at me, and just as seeing me, his eyes filled with excessive anger

I pleaded silently to him begging; he opens the door of the car and gets out

"How dare you to show me your face, don't you ever have any idea, how often I hate to see your face " he hissed at me

"Please, my brother is innocent, he did nothing, please let him get out from police custody, he knows nothing about this, for me can't you do this much for, the sake of our love please do this " I begged to him while clutching his arm

He closed his eyes in frustration and looked at me again

"There is no 'ours' between you and me, in this you are nothing to me, get over this now because I hate you from my deep heart, so expect nothing from me," he said coldly and again going to sit in his car but I stopped him by grabbing his arm

"Please, you too have a brother, you can understand me, please, "I pleaded to him and he pushed me away harshly as I stumbled into my feet

He looked at his security guards

"Never let any stranger like her get near my place, if I again saw this girl near my place, I will fire you all" he snapped at them angrily

dashed into his car and drove away at high-speed

Why he is driving at such an advance, he might have got hurt or accident, no, no Damaris doesn't think like this, nothing will happen to him. My love is with him

"Lucifer " I screamed as I tried to run behind his car but, I abruptly fall on the road as my leg hit a stone

"Mam, are you alright" Iben with some guards runs towards me, concerned

They helped me to stand up and Iben brings a first aid kit and apply oilment over the wounds on my leg

I thanked him, and comes towards Dylan's car, and drove towards the hospital

"How is he, " I asked Xander

"His operation was successful Iris, doctors able to pull out that bullet from his arm and now he is out of danger but he needs some time to recover properly as he also lost much blood," Xander said to me

I looked down in guilt, this all is because of me, my best friend is in this condition Because of me, my brother is in jail because of me, and my love Lucifer now hates me because of my actions, I am good for nothing for anyone

"I want to meet him," I said to Xander, and he nodded and we enters Dylan's hospital room

I saw him, lying there in bed, his left hand is covered with gauze and his head is wrapped with medication bandages, a sob escaped from my mouth seeing him

He slowly opened his eyes and looked at me, I know he worked up as he realized my presence in the room

He smiled a little seeing me and gives me his right hand, inviting me

I go towards him and took his hand and kissed his palm and cried hugging his hand

"Shh, don't cry Iris, I am perfectly fine, remember your childhood. A best friend is a brave boy, not a weak man," he said smiling while looking at me

I shook my head "I am so sorry, please forgive me, I never want you to suffer because of me " I said to him while crying, hugging his hand while kissing the palm of his hand

I remember, in childhood to our high school life, he used to feed me by his hands, homemade lunch which his mother prepared for him, he intensionally brings more food in his lunch as he knows that I don't like canteen food and food made in an orphanage

I keep staring at his face while hugging his arm so close to my heart, He wiped away my tears

"It's my punishment for my greed, I was so desperate to ruin Lucifer's image, who is innocent and very kind from heart, I think this is my karma Iris, don't cry, I am fine " he consoles me

Xander comes and gives me a glass of water, I gulped it and now I am not crying but still, I am hiccupping

Xander rubbed my back and hugged me, while Dylin is holding my hand squeezing it, to calm me down

"He hates me, he leaves me " I whispered remembering those horrible moments when Lucifer, leaves me and confessed that he hates me

"He didn't hate you, no one can hate you, you are a very good human from the heart," Dylin said while looking into my eyes

I shook my head "My dad is the one who is responsible for his parents' murder" I said looking down

Xander placed his hands over my shoulder, "Give him some time, he will understand you, don't worry he loves you and loves never give up, iris"

He said smiling sadly at me

I kept looking at the floor, not understanding what to do, everything was falling out of my hand, but I can't lose Lucifer.

***********

I woke up with a jolt as the ringing of my phone, I quickly received it wondering who can be

"Iris, quickly switch on the TV" I heard Xander's concerned voice

I switch on my tv and my eyes widened at breaking news in headlines of the whole USA

I quickly switch off the TV, I can't take it anymore now, everything is just popped up so, suddenly

I felt so anxious as; I missed him so much; I want to be with him; I want to be with Lucifer, this must be very tough for him, I want to be with him to console him, to give him the strength to face this all

Noah told me when his parents died he used to sit in the corner and cry his heart out remembering them even he almost died because of being bullied so badly, by his classmates when he was in high school teasing him as an orphan

My heartfelt so heavy imagining that scenario, I shook my head and wiped away my tears then suddenly, my phone rang again.

After listening to that another person, I quickly run from my apartment to the basement of the building, for my car as I want to be there as soon as possible, my heart is already hammering against my chest like it will come out anytime, I am digging my nails into my palm while running down from stairs, as an elevator of my apartment building is busy.
