Shadow Girl's
Eps. 21 Adaptations

Inspector Lucca returns to sleep restlessly after having a dream that he thinks is real.

How could he sleep if every time he went back to dreaming and even more his dream was set in a place he had never seen before with Livia and of course it made him sweat cold so he only slept for 2 hours until morning.

“Lucca... Inspector Lucca.” Livia immediately read his words calling the Inspector who called him without a title standing in front of the door of the man's room while knocking on him slowly.

“Oh... What time is this ?” Inspector Lucca immediately got up and stared at the clock hanging on the wall, showing at 09:00 a.m. “I woke up bad luck. Fortunately today I am still on leave.”

The man immediately got off the bed and opened the door of his room.

“Your hope is ready Inspector.” said Livia saw the man come out of the room with a tangled look. “Inspector, what's the matter?”

The inspector stared intensely at Livia's beaming face. “It looks like he slept soundly last night.”

“What's the Inspector ?” repeat Livia because the man has not yet responded to her question as well as make her curious.

Inspector Lucca did not answer him and instead pulled his hand to ask him to sit next to him on the sofa, then he spoke.

“Livia last night I dreamed a lot about me.” The man looked back at Intense Livia. “Not me, but I also dream of yourself dreaming of our relationship. Is that true you are my lover?” he continued after repeating his words.

Livia this time looks serious listening to the words of the Inspector and waiting for the continuation of the story but the man is also waiting for his answer and does not speak anymore.

“Try to think if there is a woman who is willing to protect a man for a full 24 hours without rest also without reward, inspector ?” livia answered back and asked, which made the Inspector look very shocked.

Glug

“So you... true my lover ?” inspector Lucca took a deep breath as he swallowed his saliva. “I mean we are lovers ?” reaffirms it.

Livia nodded her head in her heart she felt grateful that the man was a little able to remember his past, especially their relationship.

“Oh My God.” Inspector Lucca holds his head which feels heavy how can he not even know his own lover. “What a bad guy I am.” the man until cursed himself because to forget Livia from his life.

Livia saw the man sitting his head and continued to blame himself when it was not his fault.

“No, please don't be like that.” Livia touched the Inspector's shoulder. “For me you are always the best and perfect for me.” Livia tried to comfort the Inspector. He touched the man's cheek while gently rubbing it.

Somehow the man felt comfortable hugging the woman beside him like he had wanted to do it for a long time.

The next day, the Inspector is still adapting and getting used to Livia's new status.

Honestly, although maybe they were once lovers but for him it is not easy to grow the sense back so quickly.

“Inspector your breakfast is ready.” said Fiona did her morning routine.

“Ya.” The two of them then ate together and the atmosphere looked more awkward than usual and there was one of them talking.

“Livia I want my memory to recover soon.” said the man broke the silence in the middle of his unfortunate morning meal session.

“After I suck your blood slowly later all the memories will return.” explained Livia briefly and returned to acting like usual because she did not want to make the man uncomfortable to be by her side. “Looks like I have to be more patient until that time comes, Lucca. Suffice it to me Brother already knows our relationship now.”

The two of them spent a breakfast session with plenty of silence until nightfall, when the atmosphere between them had warmed up. Even until Inspector Lucca asks Livia to call her by name alone without the title that makes the woman smile.

But unfortunately his smile must be disturbed at this time.

“booom.” a barrage of bomb sounds explodes around the Inspector's house which is forced to replace the conversation they both had.

“Why at a time like this ?” lamented the Inspector who

hugging Livia and being forced to let go again in just seconds.

“There's still plenty of time for us.” Livia stared intensely at the man who now knew his identity as her lover while smiling lightly. “The ones outside are more important.”

Inspector Lucca assumed then immediately took his long barrel gun hanging on the wall. He walked with Livia out of his house.

“Very many today who came.” said Inspector Lucca settled the victims who fell there and there are still many figures who prepared to attack him.

“You ready Inspector ?” ask Livia this time also pulled a gun from behind her shirt to see the number of figures that came attacking.

“Lucca. Call me Lucca now. How many times have I told you.” Inspector Lucca reminded again of the one possessed by Livia who smiled faintly in the middle of her against the figures who were currently attacking them both.
