Church bells rang in repeat on a bright sunny day. Petals scattered in the air, and the crowd howled in celebration.
Gastone was standing by the entrance and watched two figures standing before him. His eyes widened when Daniel lowered his head and cupped Lucia's cheeks.
"You may now kiss the bride."
"AH!!!" Gastone shouted as his arms flung in the air. He looked around and realized he was back in Rosina's place in the human realm. "Ugh, what a nightmare…"
Gastone sat up from the bed and breathed deeply to calm his frantic heartbeat. It took a few minutes until he settled down and slumped back to the bed. He stared at the window and saw the light coming from the curtains.
"So I get dragged back here…" Gastone scoffed. He thought he would be teleported in the forest. His dream flashed in his mind, bringing a pang in his chest.
Gastone didn't want to attend Lucia's wedding or witness it happening.
