TWO PIANISTS
CHAPTER 4:
DEAD
It was morning! I was awaked by a sweet aroma of food. I then followed where it came from. The aroma led me to the kitchen. There I saw Maka cooking. She was like a normal person, like no problems at all but behind her smile, there you can see that she had burdens. I found myself staring at her. I was going to hide but then she saw me.
"Hi, the breakfast is ready!" she said and smiled at me.
"Why did you cooked! I did not let you here to be a maid!"
"Shhhh… I feel found when I cook. My mother never did that," she said with a smile. I know she was hiding her tears.
"Your foods look like tasty, can I have some?" I asked so that she can be happy.
"Sure, what drink do you want?" she asked after she giggled.
"Soda,"
"God, you will-"she said worriedly.
"You are asking me what I want to drink right." I said to her. She then got soda from the refrigerator.
"Here, kill yourself!' she said as she handed the Soda to me. It made me smile.
After the breakfast, she told me she will go home. I tried to stop her but she refused. He told me that her father needs her. I then brushed my hair with my fingers. I agreed though I was worried. She promised me that she will come back for the practice. She promised that she will come back alive. I then watched her as she ran to their house. I then closed my eyes and took a deep breath. 'Take care Maka' I whispered.
She was not here so I practiced alone. I tried to play the music we will play but then I can't concentrate knowing that she was in danger. I then looked to the window hoping she will come here safe. I pressed the keys of the piano in noise until a good music came out. I did it again until I knew what music I discovered. That music was dedicated to her but it was not complete. I made the beginning the middle but not the ending.
It's already dark but still she did not come. It started to rain. Lightning started to play with the clouds. I started to felt nervous and worried. Suddenly, I heard a knock on the door. I then thought that it was Maka so I ran to open it. I opened it and I greeted her with a smile but then she was wet. She was wet with stoop head. I asked what had happened. She lifted her head and looked at me. My God! I shouted. I was shocked with her face. She had slice on her face and stitches. Her face was bloody! A great lightning bolt appeared. The silence was broke by it. I closed my eyes because of that but to my surprise, she vanished.
'What was that?' I asked to myself. I then felt the butterflies in my stomach won't stop from flying. Cold temperature traveled to my veins. I knock my head and convinced that it was just an imagination. 'Imagination' I went to my bed and tried to sleep. 'Tried to sleep'
Morning, I woke up and ran to the door. I was hoping that she was there. 'Maka!' I shouted but then she was not there. I then inhaled hard. I then thought that she was fine but then some part of my mind told me that she's not.
I went to the refrigerator to get some food but it was empty. I dressed and rode my car to buy food in the groceries. As I driving the car, I saw group of people in the road. I can't go there because they block the way. I then went out to check what's in there.
I heard the man said that it was a girl. I then started to get worried. As I went there nearer I heard a lady shouting that she was dead. I then started to feel my heart's beats faster. I can't come closer. 'Is she Maka?' I asked to myself.
First, I sneak. I saw that it was really a girl. Second, I saw that she was facing the ground and she had a blonde hair. I started to panic. Third, I walk and went near to her. I can't touch her. I was afraid that it was her. I closed my eyes and took a gasped. I then made her faced me. And, and, and….It was her! It was Maka! "This can't be happening!" I shouted.
It was Maka. She had those stitches and slice on her face just like when I saw her last night! I started to make teardrops. I then carried her and let her in my car and then I drove it. I drove it as fast as I could until we reach the hospital.
She was putted in the emergency room. A few hours later, the doctor came out.
"She had been experimented," he said.
"Tell me how," I told.
"We found drugs in her blood and we also found out that she was just a part."
"What do you mean?" I asked really puzzled.
"We hypothesized that she was just a dummy,"
"Men! That's not true! Tell me, what happened to her!" I shouted angrily.
"She was raped and-"
"What! She was?" I asked very disappointed.
"That's right and now she was dead."
"Dead! What! No, no, no! That's not true! I was just talking to her yesterday!" I shouted.
"I am sorry sir but she was really dead. I need to go, if you want to see her, she was in room 2,"
One month later
I still remember that day. I was the one who made her funeral and I was the only one who was in there. I did not tell it to anyone even to my father. I keep it as a secret. It's only me who knows that. I never see her father after that incident. I can't really understand what was happening. It seems that Maka had changed my life. She… she changed me.
The time had arrived. It's the time for us to play in the ceremony. So sad she was not here. I then remembered how I hate her when she played. I then felt sad. "Maka," I whispered. It's time to play the piano and I should do it alone. She was dead but then I know she was watching me from heaven. I then pressed the piano. I don't get it. The music I played was different from the one I had practiced.
I then breathe in and decided to change the music. I played the music that I have discovered. I played it. I did. They were amazed. They said that it was a nice song and a happy music. I cried deep in my soul. 'They didn't get the music' I cried. They didn't get that it was about a broken promise! Maka promised that she will come back… she did! But she was DEAD! She was! I then swayed with the music I played. I pressed the keys as fast as I can to express my feelings. Sadly, the music must have an ending. I pressed the keys with force. Ten fingers in ten keys.
Authors Note: This story will be different from the others. This one is suspense and mysteries. Soul will then be a victim of Maka's family. Surprises are also added. Read carefully so that you can guess what really is happening. ^_^
