Chapter 7
Sara Seeks Another Adoption
When they got to Star's house to go and get her stuff Sara saw Star's father Lance take her to another room to 'Talk' or so he claimed. Sara could hear the slaps, as could Erik. They knew now what she truly went through. When she came back they left as Sara contacted the Star's mother. Star's mother knew about the whole thing and it enraged Sara.
"You listen to me lady! I'm gonna get this child from you seeing how you don't love her enough to stop your husband. I won't stand by and watch this poor child be abused by you! No child deserves that!" Yelled Sara as then the mighty words "See you in court! I will have custody of this Angel!" Sara slammed down the phone.
Star looked at her "Y..you want to take me away from mommy?...why?"
"Because little one they hurt you, and kids don't deserve that. No one does. That's why. If the hit you like your daddy did while we were there, then they don't truly love you. And I want to take you away from all that and bring you up myself." Said Sara.
"Why would you want me if they don't?" Asked Star
"Because you look like I did when I was your age, you have the eyes that we have, the soft deep eyes and that shows that you should be happy and that's why I want you. Plus I want a little girl...." Said Sara leaning next to her ear and whispered "Besides I know you like Erik and to tell you the truth he likes you too."
They both smiled and Star Said, "I'll side with you"
Erik looked at them and said "Hey I want in on all this too, don't forget whose here alone without anyone talking to him!"
"Ok you 2 go play while I make a phone call to Paul and my lawyer. I'll get you away from that horrid house. Don't you worry." Said Sara walking to the phone.
"Come on I wanna show you my room." said Erik leading Star to his room where the red rose bush sat next to the window. And his father's mask sat upon a nightstand, and the ring under a glass case. And something they went back for before leaving the opera house. It was a big painted portrait of Christine, The phantom and Erik. Phantom of the Opera pictures hung all over the place. "This is my room, like it?"
"It's so cool. A rose bush, it's so pretty..." said Star admiring his rose bush.
Erik walked to the bush and with his gloved hands and his knife to prune the bush he cut off a rose for her. "Here, if you...um...want it, it's a gift....I want you to have it...you'll never know how special this bush truly is...but maybe someday I'll explain it to you. But you may have this." said Erik handing her the rose.
Star took the rose smelled it and then kissed his cheek. "Thank you Erik, I'd like to know about this bush. Could you tell me about 'The Phantom of the Opera'?"
"I'd be glad to." said Erik leading her to his bed. He pulled out a picture book with pictures of the real phantom, his father, and some of actors. "This is the phantom of the opera. Under that mask his face was deformed and scared, and no one understood his nature. I am the same way. The Phantom's real name was Erik, just like mine. I was named after him. He is really a big inspiration to me. He grew up in the Paris opera house. One day he heard the voice of Christine Dae' and fell in love with her. He began teaching her to sing even better and came to her in her dreams and said he was the 'Angel of Music'. Later on a man named Raoul came into her life. He was a childhood friend. But we won't waste time on that man. Later Erik kidnaps Christine and Raoul goes in search of her. Erik wrapped a noose about his neck and forced Christine to choose. Christine chose Erik, but Erik never got to enjoy his victory...As They were followed by a mob and Christine gave Erik her ring as Erik told Raoul to take Christine and go. As Erik led the mob away, as he sat upon his thrown and wrapped his cloak about himself and vanished...that's a very short story and not even all said...the phantom loved Christine...he loved her enough to let her go so she could be safe." Said Erik picking up the mask hugging it tightly as the memory burned as bad as a wild fire.
"Erik..." said Star Hugging him gently "how do you know so much have so many phantom pictures.... Even pictures that look like they were painted as long ago as when the Phantom lived...."
"I can't tell you that... Maybe I'll be ready to tell you someday...but not today..." Said Erik As a single tear rolled from his eye.
Sara walked into the room and said "Great news! We don't even have to go to Court their giving Star to us. They don't want to get into a war in court so they are getting the adoption papers and a lawyer and coming right over. And after the papers are signed Star is my little girl." Sara saw Erik. "Erik dear what's wrong..." She saw the mask "You told the story again...." Sara hugged him.
"Yes mom, but it's ok....can I tell her now....please mother...can I?" Asked Erik.
"If you want to. But if you can't bring yourself to then stop..." said Sara.
