Luna pressed the elevator buttons furiously, gritting her teeth at the same time. “Come on, elevator,
come on. I want to see Neil, my Neil…“
She continued to mutter Neil’s name over and over again as if besieged by a spell.
Finally, the elevator arrived.
As soon as the doors slid open, Joshua caught sight of a deranged-looking Luna standing outside the
elevator.
“Joshua Lynch! “ she yelled like a lunatic and could not stop her tears from falling anymore. “Neil…“
Joshua’s expression darkened. After a moment, he let out a sigh and pulled her into his arms.
His embrace felt warm and protective, with a hint of his distinctive scent lingering about.
Luna froze at the sudden turn of events, then immediately furrowed her brows. She struggled against

go, so I can go find Neil! “
Joshua closed his eyes and clung to her even tighter. No matter how hard she struggled, he refused to
let go of her at all.
After a long while, he let out another sigh and said in a low voice, “Go get yourself ready. I’ll bring you
to see Neil.“
Luna lifted her head to gaze at him, a glimmer of anticipation and excitement in her eyes. She removed
herself from his embrace and asked, “So that means Neil isn’t dead, right?“
She added in a choked voice, “Gwen was lying to me, wasn’t she?“
Joshua paused for a moment when he met her fragile yet somehow determined gaze, then finally said,
“ You’ll know when you see him.“
“Okay! “ Luna nodded obediently like a child who had gotten herself into trouble. “I ‘ll go get ready right
now. Please tell Neil to wait for me. Tell him to wait for me! “
With that, she wiped her tears and ran out of the elevator.
Gwen, who had been standing outside all this while, first shot Joshua a quizzical look, then glanced at
Luna. “Luna…“
“He’s bringing me to see Neil! “ Luna sniffed and grabbed hold of Gwen’s arm with her bony hand. “
Come on, help me get ready and do my makeup! Neil wouldn’t want to see me like this. I look horrible!
“
Gwen wiped her tears away and nodded. “Alright !“
Luna had been unconscious for a month, and the only nutritional support she got was through her IV
line, causing her to lose a ton of weight. She was so skinny at this point that even a gust of wind could

Gwen had to use half a bottle of foundation to cover up Luna’s dark circles and the weariness on her
face. She also helped Luna draw her eyebrows, put on eyeliner and lipstick.
An hour later, when Luna reappeared in front of Joshua, she was wearing a beautiful white dress.
There was a glimmer of anticipation in her eyes. “ Come on, let’s go visit Neil. He must’ve missed me
so much! “
Neil must have been waiting for her all this while. He must still be alive.
Everything that happened in her dream… was just a dream!
Joshua sighed, then approached Luna and picked her up in his arms.
Luna furrowed her brows and struggled against his grip, but Gwen stopped her. “You’re weak now, so
you can’t walk very far. Let him carry you. It’s not like he’s a stranger.“
Luna paused, then nodded obediently. “Okay.“ Gwen was right. She was indeed too weak.
It was nice having Joshua carry her, too.
Maybe this would let her see Neil sooner.
