I think this is the best chapter I have ever wrote in all my stories : ) oh! Sorry for the long wait! My brain got blocked...
Found myself Again
Sprx walk out the city with Futura in his hands, he was tired as he stay wake up all night. The last public light of the city was already getting off; the morning was already there in that planet.
He didn't know where to go; no plans were in his head. He was enjoying that moment with the little girl. He finally found himself in a giant meadow, it was fully green and flower had started to grow, the view was only of mountains all around except the road that head to the city. There was a tree, the only tree in that place, a beautiful tree that decorates the meadow with a great touch.
Sprx sit in the giant roots of the tree, the shadow of the tree protect him and Futura from the sun rays. Sprx put Futura over his chest, he uses one of the roots to rest his head, he hugs Futura with one arm, and then he fell asleep. The soft breeze of the meadow hit Sprx on his face all the time, the humid feeling mixed with cold air give great peace to his heart.
Sprx open his eyes, the shining of the sun was really strong. Futura wasn't there anymore, he gasps and start to search for her. He got really worried about her, he never feel that kind of worry before… the worry for a son. He start to search really freaked out giving a sad look, he climb the tree to see if she go up there, but he doesn't find her. Tears started to appear in his eyes, he put his hands over his head in signal that everything in his life was wrong. The tears roll over his cheeks falling down the tree.
He closes his eyes and start sobbing, after a few minutes crying silently, he open his eyes and look down the tree, in it, in the middle of the meadow, Nova was looking directly to him, she was wearing a white dress that fit exactly to her size. Sprx go down the tree. He starts walking to her, he was happy to see her there, his sob stop.
"Nova…" said Sprx finally when he was in front of her "you look beautiful".
"Thanks" said Nova blushing and putting her hand in her cheeks.
"I'm sorr…" Sprx was interrupted by the finger of Nova.
"Don't say anything you silly monkey" said Nova putting her tail in his waist.
Sprx give a nervous smile while blushing.
"I really have to say this…" Sprx continue
"The time will come" said Nova getting closer to him.
"What are you tal…?"
The kiss that he was expecting for years was already there. He enjoys it a lot. He broke the kiss, and start talking again.
"I lov…"
"Again… not to me"
Sprx was really confused at this.
"Everything will be alright, I promise" said Nova putting her head in Sprx chest.
"I know" said Sprx closing his eyes.
Nova push Sprx finishing the hug, she ran to the tree. Sprx finally understand that was a game. He follows her.
"I'll catch you!" said Sprx in a challenging tone.
"No you can't!" Nova said with happiness.
Nova arrives to the tree, and starts to run around it, Sprx start to search for her around the tree, until he catches her exactly in the point he fell asleep. They were laughing without of breath because the run. Nova rolls over Sprx, they still laughing with their eyes closed.
Both open their eyes, they look each other. They were smiling, a few minutes pass, they still looking each other. Finally Sprx close his eyes a second.
"Dad! Dad!" Nova starts to yell while pulling him from his shoulders. Sprx was really confused. The sky turned black, and the Nova's face start to disappear, and then all turned darkness. Sprx open his eyes, Futura was the one yelling over Sprx; it was all a dream.
"Are you ok?" Futura ask sitting next to him.
"Yes… Why you ask?" Sprx said rubbing his eyes and sitting.
"You was laughing and screaming like an idiot"
"Oh" said Sprx looking Futura.
"You had a dream?"
"Kinda" said Sprx then he sigh.
"I shouldn't have waked you up" said Futura disappointed.
"Don't worry, it was only a dream, now I know what to do" Sprx said standing up.
Futura smile and climb over Sprx's head. Sprx start to walk back to the city. Sprx stop for a second.
"Wait… you call me "dad"?!"
Futura gasp. "Did you hear me? I though you was asleep…"
Sprx was silent.
"...Can I call you dad?" said Futura giving a sad look while playing with her little hands.
Sprx look at her with a smile "Of course you can" he took Futura in his hands, and give her a kiss in her cheek. Futura blush and give Sprx hug to his face, then she climb again to Sprx's head.
He was in way to turn around, but before that he looks the tree again. He looks it for a few seconds.
"Something wrong, dad?"
"No… nothing" Sprx said turning around and start walking again.
Back in the tree, the spirit of a beautiful woman was sleeping in a large branch with a smile in her face.
