CHAPTER 1
Like every night for now a year and twenty-one day, Charlie, back from the station, sits on the couch and turns on the television without eithen note that Ruby had prepared a special meal. For a year and twenty-one day, Ruby was trying to make forget Charlie that she had probably lost the love of her life.
Ruby sits next to Charlie:
- "how was your day?"
- "as usual."
- "oh please Charlie !"
- "What? What do you want me to do?"
- "Talk to me! tell me what you feel for Joey! You can not continue to lament like that! It's have been over a year and she is still not back Charlie! You have to think about something else! You should go back to see Angelo, he is a nice guy."
Charlie stays silent and focuses more on television
- "Charlie?"
Seeing the serious face of Charlie, Ruby turns to TV to see what attracts so much attention from her mother. It was a music show. A new singer was going to start singing her song on stage.
- "Joey ?"
Joey feels the tension when the lights go out and the first notes are heard.
All eyes are on her. She can't make any mistakes in might not be able to start a new life as she wishes.
I'm holding on your rope
Got me ten feet off the ground
And I'm hearing what you say
But I just can't make a sound
You tell me that you need me
Then you go and cut me down
But wait...
You tell me that you're sorry
Didn't think I'd turn around and say..
it's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late
Joey closes her eyes as she hears the music. She has this picture of the only woman she loves in her mind. She can't stop thinking about her since she left on this boat. She is always wondering if she has not do a big mistake but she can't forgive her.
I'd take another chance, take a fall, take a shot for you
And I need you like a heart needs a beat
(But that's nothing new)
Yeah yeah
I loved you with a fire red, now it's turning blue
And you say
Sorry like the Angel Heaven let me think was you,
But I'm afraid
It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late
Woahooo woah
It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, yeah yeah
I said it's too late to apologize, a yeah
I'm holding on your rope
Got me ten feet off the ground...
(ONE REPUBLIC Apologize)
As the song ends, Joey returns backstage with applause. She has sung with emotion, feeling every word resonate in her heart.
Ruby looks at Charlie without knowing what her reaction should be. Charlie stays silent before turning off the television.
- "I think I better go to bed"
Ruby feels the sadness and pain in the voice of her mother while she watchs her going to her bedroom.
