Chapter 5

• Scarlett's POV:
• All i think about right now is Anthony..
• It was the middle of the night and he's still not home, after i ran to my room i stayed there, my mom came twice to check up on me, but i wasn't ready to talk to her, yet..
• I wanted to call Anthony but i remembered i don't have his phone number...i was so worried about him, he's not use to be that late, i wonder what could happen if he knows the truth, i bet things will change between us when he know.
• i was about to close my eyes and go to sleep but…i heard footsteps on the stairs, he's finally here, i opened my door i wanted to check up on him, i looked at him, he opened his door and was about to enter his room but he stopped, he shoot me one of his deadly glares, as if i was the only source of annoyance in this world, i froze didn't move, suddenly he closed the door after he entered his room. i sigh, i understand his feelings, i don't blame him anymore.
• I entered my room but i couldn't sleep, i decided i should play violin since it become a habit, every time I’m sad i play it, i held my violin closed my eyes and started playing, just some random beat, it's what i do when I’m nervous, After a while of playing, my door cracked open, i turned in surprise, to see Anthony glaring at me.. he was walking towards me his footsteps weren’t the usual. Is he drunk?.
• He stood right in front of me his closeness caused me Goosebumps, i become nervous while my heart beats accelerated, i looked at him in confusion, what is he doing?
• out of sudden he touched my left hand the one I was holding the violin with, he took the violin with his hand and looked at it.
• "among of all musical instruments you choose violin? why? do you have to torture me like this? do you have to remind me every second of her? ". he said angrily taking one step away from me.
• I'm opening his wounds!!
• me playing violin? does it bothering him this much?
• I loved it when his mom used to play violin whenever we ask her. it's because of her I became an amazing player like this.
• "you know how much I loved it when she was playing violin, and I know it was our favorite sound back then, it still the same for me, it still the greatest thing I've ever heard, actually it's the only thing that makes me feel better, that I'm safe, that I'm alive ". I said moving closer to Anthony but he lost control and threw my violin on the floor. my violin turned into broken pieces in less than two seconds, I was very close to it, a sharp piece flew over my right cheek and cause me a deep wound. I put my right hand to touch it and I saw blood. but I didn't care about it. my violin's broken!!!!!
• "nooooo!! ". I screamed while Anthony covered his ears with his hands, he gave me a terrified look before running away out of my room.
• nooo, I can't believe he just broke my violin. this is my first violin ever.
• I sat on the floor with my broken heart, holding the pieces of my violin, feeling a stab in the middle of my heart.
• "why? why would you do this? ". I said crying my heart, I was tearing up.
• "honey what's going on?!!! ". mom entered my room with a terrified face.
• "he_he broke my violin ". I said while mom hugging me. she said nothing, she just took me to bed and said nothing more than "he needs time honey, in the end, you do play violin like her, that's like open up wounds but only to heal them, and to heal wounds we need a lot of time ". mom said planting a kiss on my forehead.
• I cried till I fell asleep..
