As Lucifer was speaking to his sister, his phone rang. He took it out of his pocket and saw Gwen's name appear on the screen. He raised his eyebrows, wondering why she would be calling him at this time.
"Oh, Lucifer, isn't that your girlfriend? Why don't you answer the phone? It must be important." Layla asked as she released Lucifer and stepped back, smiling at him.
Lucifer hesitated for a second, but then he shrugged his shoulders and answered the call. "Hey, Gwen. Good morning."
"Morning, Lucifer. Ummm... Do you have some time now?" Gwen asked in a soft voice.
"Yes, I do. What's up?"
"Do you think we can meet somewhere? There's something I want to talk to you about."
"Of course, Gwen. Sure. Where do you want to meet?" Lucifer replied without thinking twice about it. He didn't even ask what she wanted to talk about.
It didn't matter. He loved her so much that he couldn't refuse her request, even if he wanted to.
"Ummm... Can we meet in the park near the university? You know where there's a secluded spot near the pond?"
"Yeah, I know where that is. I'll be there in twenty minutes." Lucifer said.
"Okay... Thank you, Lucifer. I'll see you then." Gwen said before ending the call.
Lucifer put his phone back into his pocket and turned around to find his sisters looking at him curiously. "What?" He asked, wondering what they were staring at him like that for.
Upon noticing Lucifer's arrival, Gwen looked up at him and smiled at him, though her smile didn't seem as cheerful as usual. Lucifer felt something was wrong, but he decided to ignore it for the time being.
"Hi, Gwen! You're early." He said as he sat down next to her on the bench. He tried to act natural despite feeling a little awkward since this was the first time they were meeting after their fight a few days ago.
Gwen nodded and turned to look at Lucifer with a serious expression on her face. "Thank you for coming here, Lucifer. I... I have something important to talk to you about..."
"Oh, is that so? Then let's talk. What do you want to say?"
"Lucifer..." Gwen started speaking, her voice trembling a bit. She took a deep breath to calm herself down and continued, "Do you still love me?"
Lucifer was caught off guard by her question and hesitated for a second before answering. "Of course I do. I've never stopped loving you, Gwen. You're my first girlfriend, and you will always be special to me."
Hearing that, Gwen's expression became even more serious. She clenched her hands into fists and bit her lower lip. "Then why did you do it? Why did you cheat on me?"
Lucifer blinked several times as he stared at Gwen, not understanding what she meant. 'Did she find out about my affairs? But with whom? No, I don't think that's possible.
Unless...'
However, before Lucifer could figure out what she meant, Gwen spoke again, interrupting his thoughts. "Don't you dare deny it, Lucifer! I saw it with my own eyes!" She shouted angrily at Lucifer. "I saw you kissing another girl on TV!
How dare you do such a thing to me, Lucifer?! Do you have any idea how much pain I felt?! Do you?!" She screamed at him as tears streamed down her cheeks.
Even though her mother told her that she should ask him about it first, and she was ready to do so, she couldn't get the image of him kissing another woman out of her head, and the more she thought about it, the more furious she became.
