Her Lilac Eyes

My violin

3 days before her birthday...

I was so bored after I read her note, eaten breakfast and doing other house chores. I couldn't wait 'till the night would come.
I was walking down the hall and I saw the door to the room I never really knew how it looked like. Dad said there were some old stuff.

"Let's see what's in here,shall we?"

I unlocked it and I could see many boxes. I looked through them,I found some of mom's stuff,clothes,jewelry.
Dad's stuff too,I found his old books from school, even his suit from the wedding.

But there was a box that caught my attention. It was a big old box,sealed so carefully.
When I opened it,there were old books,but a solid black box could be seen underneath. I took out the books and the black box,when I opened it.. it was a violin?

I dont remember dad saying that he played the violin neither did mother.

"Whatcha doing there?"

"AAH! The hell! You scared me!" It was her with her silly jokes.

"I'm sorry! Hahaha!" She bursted out laughing.

"It isn't funny you know! I could have dropped this then dad would kill me!"

"Oh yeah,what are you doing with my violin?"

"Your violin? But why is it here?"

"Oh.. my parents must have given Kai some of my stuff."

"You too knew each other?" He never spoke of her.

"Of course! We were friends since we were like 5 years old. I miss those days."

"So.. if it's your violin, then why dont you play it for me?"

"Why not try it. I haven't played it in a long long time."

She got the violin, and started playing it.
The melody she was playing was making me cry. Her movements,it was like time froze around her. She mastered this instrument, she didn't even look at the strings.
It was like her fingers had eyes.

This moment didn't last long,because I heard the front door and someone walking fast. It was dad.

"He's coming, he must've heard the violin. What do I do.."

She gave me the violin.

"Trust me."

She dissapeared just in time. He bursted in the room, his eyes desperately searching for something,for someone.

"What are you doing dad?"

"I heard a violin. You know how to play it?"

"Um..." but just then my body moved on it's own and started playing. This sure was her.
He exhaled and left.

When I got in my room I found a note saying she cant come tomorrow.

2 days before her birthday...

I got so bored, but I decided to dig through the books in the box. It were her school books and I found a journal. I shouldn't read it,but I did.
Surprisingly everything that was wrote was like a fanfiction of her life.
The last page, was reality.

"Everything is a lie."

1 day before her birthday...

We were chilling on the balcony, watching the stars together. I got all my courage and asked her.

"Hey.. you know there is a festival tomorrow, do you want to come with me?"

"Silly but I'm always with you!"

"Not in that way.. come with me,literally."

"Oh.. I would love to." Yes! This was my chance.

"But what will people do if they see me?"

"Hm.. you can wear moms clothes, a scarf over your hair,sunglasses so that people cant see your eyes."

"Good idea but I've got a better one. "

"What?"

"I'll show you tomorrow. If I come at 5 pm is it a problem?"

"No. Its perfect!"

"Okay."

Yes! Now my plan can begin. Tomorrow I'll get her a present, then spend some time with her while making her happy.
