I gasp waking up to an awkward smell of flour. I let out a disappointed sigh with the realization that everything that had happened to me wasn't a dream.

I blame myself, I was the one who decided to marry Jesse, I'm the one who decided not to do anything when I found out about his adultery, I was the one who let Benita stay with us, I caused Jack to die, he saved me, I wish he didn't. Memories came back to me while I was asleep, I recall everything that happened.

I hear a knock on the door "come in" I said in my weak tone

I sense little footsteps "Sorry if I disturbed you" is that girl's voice again

"I'm not hungry, thank you".

" Why?" She asked in her high pitched voice

"I don't feel like it, but thank you". I hear her sigh "Are you, Luther's daughter?".

She replies instantly "Yup"

    I hear a finger snap, I gasp as I immediately get off the bed, with my shaky legs I walk slowly to where the sound was coming from, and I hear it again. I whisper "Father?". I don't get a response " Father!" I exclaimed, I hear the snapping again. Suddenly I see a man holding a baby, I don't see his face, it was like looking at a shadow, I gulp, the baby stretches his tiny hands like he was calling for me, I try to hold him, but then the man takes the baby and starts running. "No please come back!" I cry out, I hear the baby cry "Bring him back please!". I suddenly open my eyes to nothingness, that's when I realise, what I had was a dream. " Good morning, did you sleep well?" I hear Luther's mother's voice. "Yes, I did".I try sitting up " That's good to hear, Luther ask to check up on you, he's worried that the news of yesterday affected you, you know, the speech your ex-husband made". I sigh "It did, but I'm over it". I feel her hand on mine "It must hurt, you don't have to
