Chapter eight
I opened my eyes and sat up. A subway? what was I doing here. Then I remembered that I had run away.
BOOM, the sound of thunder reached the subway,
The plain starts going down, we´re going to crash
I stood up, breathing heavily. I started to run out of the subway again. I didn´t know where I was going, but without my knowledge, my legs carried me back to Elm tree house.
A lightning broke the heaven in two pieces for a second and the noise came just at the same time, I was crying, but I didn´t recognize. Suddenly there came another loud bang with a lightning,
My family stood in the middle of the pieces of a plane,
"Mamma" I shouted "pappa, Jonas" Without me recognizing it I´ve started to speak Swedish
I ran up to the driveway to Elm tree house, I started to banging on the door, cause it was locked.
"Mike" I started screaming "Open the door, please"
Then I heard someone fixing with the lock on the other side of the door and the door opened. Then I jumped and lay my arms around Mike´s neck, sobbing unstoppable.
"There, there" Mike said, carrying me into the lounge. "Is going to be alright."
After a while I stopped crying and then Mike lifted me onto the sofa. Johnny, Tee and all the others except Gus stood behind the sofa"
"We have been so worried for you" Johnny said "Where have you been"
"I don´t really know, I was in a tunnel, and I fell asleep."
"Well, the most important thing" said Mike "Is that you´ve come back safely." I stood up, walking towards the piano. I sat down on the piano chair, but I didn´t play it.
"Hello Tracy" Mike said in his phone. "Emma´s back, yeah she´s alright"
"Tracy went out looking for you while you where gone" Tee said.
I nodded
"I´m sorry that I ran away" I said. "I really am."
"Don´t worry" Mike said "You seem to be back to normal again, at least you can talk without fizzle again"
He said with a laughter so I understood he was joking, and then I started laughing. After like, one minute we all lay on the floor, and it was one of those really liberating laughter´s. When Tracy got into the room, she just stopped in the door, shaking his head.
"What are you doing?" she asked when we´ve stopped laughing.
"Laughing" I said. Stood up and sat back on the piano chair
"Do you play the piano" Tee asked.
I nodded
"Well play for us then."
I nodded and then started playing. I was just improvising, and it was so good. It made me forget everything around me and it was like, my fingers were dancing on the piano keys. When the last tonne had ran out I turned around. Mike and most of the girls had tears in their eyes. It was all quiet
Tracy was the first one to break the silence.
"That was amazing"
