Well, here's the next updated chapter with a new twist! it just happened to pop in my head one day :)
Erin
I woke up in my normal bed in the same dormitory, not in my father's home like I had wanted. I thought for a second that we could be a family. I guess I thought wrong..he doesn't even want me to live with him. He lied to me in the chapel, he said he would see me after the performance. How could he? I had the horrible feeling of embarrassment still in my stomach as I got up and got dressed and headed for the chapel, I didn't think he would be there as he didn't show up last night why would he show up now? thoughts went through my head. Did he not like my performance? Was it horrible...No, I was good. I have my mothers and his voice combined it has to be good...I was so lost in my thoughts, I was not paying any attention to my surroundings...
"Why, Hello Erin." A strange but yet familliar voice, I looked up. I knew him. Knew him, ha, I absolutely abhored him.
"You. What do you want?"
"Oh, nothing, my darling, I see you here have quite some fame in your name."
"Yes. And I don't need you here to ruin it. Your not going to get me sick like you got my mother sick. You insolent fool."
"Oh please Erin, I only did what I had to do."
"Your a sick twisted man why on earth would you do that to my mother."
"I have my reasons, I never really liked Christine, anyway..I thought she was just too manipulative for my brother."
"So you killed her? her own sister-in-law. Over that? Well, I am certainly glad Raoul wasn't my real father then. Cause then I'd be related to you! Ugh. The horror."
"Oh, I know, that is why I came here. See I knew. you didn't show any characteristics of Raoul..and I just had the gut feeling, but now you've made it very clear. Thankyou for that."
"If that's all can you leave, Phillipe? I have to go to the chapel."
"Oh to meet your horribly scarred masked father? or to light a candle for your cheating mother?"
"Just Shut Up and Leave. Your Not Wanted Here."
With that, I ran all the way to the Chapel. where I sat by the window and cried. I didn't notice my father crawl in from the window, I didn't even notice it open. I was too upset.
"Erin..shh..Erin." he whispered.
"Noo..I'm...soo..mad.."
"What's wrong, angel"
"Phillipe De Changne"
"Who?"
I stopped sobbing enough to tell him.
"Phillipe De Changne is Raoul's brother. Mother didn't die because she just fell sick. It's how she was murdered."
He gazed at me, as I watched his eyes grow angry. and I continued.
"One day, when I was playing with my dolls, Phillipe had come in that day. Mother was resting, she was exhausted and had called Phillipe over to help watch me since the maids had the day off. I don't know how I remember this day so well, but I do. Anyway, I was playing when I heard Phillipe and Mother talking, our rooms were really close, so I walked to the door, I wanted to see her anyways.
'Christine, take this, you have been exhausted entirely too long..this should help.'
'Phillipe, I'm just tired.'
'Just take it. I hate to see you like this. And Erin hates you like this.'
'Very well.' And she drank the substance Phillipe had brought her.
I thought nothing of it and went back to playing with my dolls, but a day later she grew very sick, and no one didn't know what to do. And soon, her body gave up, and she was gone. I didn't click it in my head that Phillipe poisoned her til a few days later but no one would believe me."
I sobbed into his chest some more and finally wiped my tears again remembering last night.
"Erin, it will be fine. I'm here now. But he will pay for what he has done one way or another."
"Father, where were you last night?
