The phantom took a candlestick and smashed the mirror. Every piece fell to the floor, then he entered a very dark tunnel, a curtain closed the way. He kept running, his eyes were filled with tears. At the end of the tunnel, he took his black cloak, he placed it upon his broad shoulders, inside of the cloak there was a white mask, and he placed upon his face that was burnt.

He had tears in his eyes, he opened the door and walked into the night. He found his black horse, he mounted it and rode off. As he was riding he had flashes of the event that had happened. Christine choosing Raoul over him.

He didn't even notice that he was now out of the city. He headed for the woods, the moon was full that night. His heart was broken, the one woman he loved broke his heart into a million pieces.

He heard a soft pleasant sound in the wind, he was a little curious. He decided to follow the sound, it sounded like someone was singing. After walking for a few minutes. He saw a young woman sitting on a bench and singing softly to herself.

He didn't want her to see him, he was watching her behind a tree. The moonlight shined down on her, she seemed to have red-brown hair, her hair was long and wavy it was like waves were caught in her hair. She stood up and walked for a little bit. She walked close to the running water, she dipped her right foot in the water.

She looked at ease, almost content. She raised her head and turned her gaze. He wasn't sure but it seemed like she was crying. He wanted to get closer but someone had called to her. Her attention turned to the person calling her. It seemed that the person seemed concerned for her. The young woman followed the person calling her.

He approached to where she was originally and saw a small book. He picked up the book.

''Macbeth.'' He said softly.

He smiled softly. Interesting that she was reading Macbeth. He wanted to know her but he didn't want to frighten her away. Considering his last moment with a woman did not end so well. He heard something, he looked at the direction of the house. He saw the young woman returning. He dropped the book and went behind the tree again. He saw her pick up the book on the ground. She had a very confused look on her face. She knew that she placed the book on the bench, but how did it end up on the floor?

He moved a little, accidentally snapping a twig. Her gaze went in the direction of the sound. He stood very still, he saw the look on her face confusion with a hint of fear.

''Is someone there?'' she called out

Her voice was soft and calming to him. He loved the sound of her voice, although he could hear the sound of fear in her voice it was pleasant to hear.

After several moments, she headed back to the house. That was close, too close. He didn't want her to see him.

He placed a flower on the bench.
