Chapter Twenty-Eight
Erik-Nadir Project
He rushed downstairs, why did she have to trust that damn man enough to bring him down here. Now he had to go and put up with him...Nadir.
He came to the final trapdoor that led him to his (and Christine's) humble abode. He headed straight to the guest room, where he found his old friend.
Nadir's POV
"Come, we need to talk." he replied bluntly. 'This is gonna be bad,'I thought.
Erik led me to his library, where there was a nice large bottle of scotch, waiting for us. Quickly and quietly he poured two glasses full, and handed one of them to me. You could tell he was fuming and not saying anything was making the anger simmer.Finally he spoke, he was so quiet, he was almost inaudible, "Why are you here?"
"I wanted to see you, my old friend. But now I can see it was a mistake. SoI will take my leave here." I turned toexit the library when he stoped me.
"Why leave? By doing so you're just delaying the inevitable. So lets settle this now, as clam and politely as we can." WOW! He was actually thinking of being a gentleman about this. This woman has sure changed him attitude.
"Fine then. But please lets be civil about it," I replied, I really did not want to get on his bad side about this topic.
"Well we can try at least," he paused... "Now where should we start? Hmmm... good side, bad side? Tough decision. How about we start with how you betrayed me." he said calmly. Calmly not being good.
"What about that?" I asked confidently, yet cowardly. He could tell I was now slowly being backed into a corner, and the look in his eyes went from cool, calm and collected to anger, anger and evil happiness. He knew he was winning.
"Well firstly, Why did you do it?" he asked, still reletivly calm.
"I was protecting her from..." he cut me off.
"FROM WHAT DAROGA? MYSELF?" there it was, he had snapped and there was no turning back, I was done for. "WHY...why..." his words were interrupted by small sobs, this was a side of him I had never seen. He leaned against on of the bookcases and began to cry to himself softly. He stayed in that same spot for quite sometime, no less then twenty minutes. When he finally turned back around to continue talking to me, his cheek was tear stained. "WHAT WAS I GOING TO DO TO HER?" he yelled. "I HAD NEVER TOUCHED HER. I never once touched her. She was too special, too beautiful to be touched by A MONSTER LIKE ME!"As he said this he ripped the mask off reavealing the horrible deformity everybody talked about. He fell to his knees, and once again, began to cry softly.
"Erik, I meant no harm, I just knew..." once again he cut me off.
"You just knew I had anger problems and thought that I might not think and just strike her? Why would I ever do that to someone I loved? Why?"
"Because she loved somebody else." I stuttered.
"Still..." just then there was a knock on the library door. "Come in," he called out.
It was Mme. Giry, Meg following closely behind.
Erik's POV
"Ah Madame,"I said trying to find my mask on the ground from earlier.
"Oh, I am sorry Erik, I just thought I would bring Meg here since she is now awake. But I can see you are in the middle of something, so we can just come back later," she turned to walk away when I stopped her. "No Madame, it is okay, I can finish this conversation later, Meg and her news is most important now." I turned to Nadir, "You can leave. I will be there shortly, so we can continue talking." This time I didn't stop him as he took his leave, even though I wanted to. I replaced my mask upon my face then invited the two ladies into my library.
"Welcome!" I said, attitude cmpletely changed. But Mme. Giry had noticed my tear stained cheeks and gave me a worried, questioning look. "I'll explain later,"I whispered into her ear. "Now, Meg? Shall we continue our conversation?"
"Yes. I am terribly sorry about earlier. I just did not want to know how you would react to Raoul's vulgar behavior. But when I woke up Mama here reminded me you are not the same person you used to be. And so I am no longer frightened, even if you still get a little angry." Se paused to catch her breath. I held out my arm, inviting her to take it, which she gladly obliged. I escorted her to one of the two large leather chairs I have placed in the very center of the room. Once she was seated, I located myself to the one opposite her own.
She still looked very tired, and the journey from her room to my fifth cellar home had to make her feel even worse. "Come now Meg what happened?" he asked patiently.
"Erik... nevermind. Okay, here I go. when I replied to his question about my dream and you "hurting me", like I said, I yelled 'Raoul he's my father, why would he want to hurt me?' He angered and yelled..." she paused. "Erik I can't say it. It is too horrible." she dropped her head, so she was looking at her hands folded in her lap rather than my eyes.
"Now come on Meg.I need you to tell me everything. I deserve to know. It was about me you know." I smiled, and she giggled. 'good, at least I can make her smile,' I thought.
"Erik it is just so bad, I cna't and won't say it."
"Meg you have too. Please for my sake."
"Fine!" she said aggitatedly. "He called you a Mother Fucker! It that what you wanted to hear?"
I stood up as quickly as I could. I rushed over to my full untouched glass of scotch, I had poured earlier when I was with Nadir. God it tasted good right now. I drank away some of the anger as I started to pour another glass full, when I remembered Meg was still in the room andI shouldn't drink in front of her."Can you please repeat that?" I asked, in a state of shock.
"He called you a Mother Fucker," she replied once again.
"Why that little Bastard, sorry. I can't believe he would call me that even though I deserve it, BUT STILL." I sat down in anger, speechless. Then I looked at Meg, "Thank you for telling me, you can go ahead and go back to bed. In the morning are you going to tell Christine and Mme. Giry? Or have you already told your mother?"
"I have told no one but you. In the morning I am going to Mama and then Chirstine. Thank you Erik." she said, and she walked up to me and kissed me on the cheek. "Good-night Erik." and with that she left. 'God, please help me with my next conversation. Please make it peaceful.' I thought to myself. I then stood and headed for the guest bedroom once more. Before I walked in I whispered, "Here I Go."
