I opened my eyes, but now, it wasen't a ceiling. It was a bed. I slowly turn my head to my left, and saw daylight comming from the window. It looked really cool, even beautiful. Now my back was feeling great, better. Honestly, i didn't want to get out of the bed. It was my first decent nap in ages, and i didn't want to ended. But i guess life should continue, right?, even in this shity world. 

I got up, and started to feel dizzy. 'Got up to fast' i thought. After several seoconds, i was standing fine. I laughed a little, and said "Been a long time since i had one of those.". I stretch my arms, and let out a big yawn. I opened the door, and walked outside.

I opened the doors to the yard, and the light of the sun hit my eyes. I didn't hurt, but i felt strong. I noticed Louise and Violet in the stairs to the main bulding, i started to walk at them to say morning, but Louise already was talking to me.

"Ethan!. How you sleep?," "Great... really great," i said with a low voice. "Good, you deserve it bud. By the way, i dont know the time, but i can tell you sleept for like... 10 hours," i back up my head a little bit because of the suprise. 10 hours?, can i even sleep that much?. Either way, i needed that, and like Louise said... i deserve it. "10 hours, that long?. It felt like... 7," i said with a still low voice. 

After that, i looked at Violet. The first think i saw, was her eyes being lost in the view. 'She is day day dreaming' i thought. I didn't want to leave her like a tree, so i said "Violet... you okay?" she quickly snap back from her day dream, and explained "Yeah... sorry, i was just... thinking off...," both Louis and i waited for more, but she didn't continue.

To get out of that 'situation', Violet said almost yelling "Hey Lou!," Louis jump a little bit " Didn't you say you had a lether jacket?" Louis froze for some seconds, and then made a "Oh!" sound. "Yeah, your right," Louis turn to see me and continued "I founded when Aasim and i were at the town. i was going to give it to AJ, but i didn't saw how big it was,"

Louis made a little pause to laugh for some seconds "I just grab it," Violate and i also laughed "Do you want it Ethan"? i opened my eyes with suprise "Really?" i said now with my regular voice

"Yeah man. A leather jacket can save lives, you know, from bites and gunshotts." i got say, Louis had a point. "Okay, sounds good to me." i said with some confidence. Louis got up, and i started to follow him. But then i remember Violet. I grabbed Louis's shoulder, and ask "Louis,what about Vio-" "It's okay, i'll be here... thinking." after that, we continued to enter to the main bulding.

The first thing i saw, was the stairs in the middle, with sunlight comming from the window at the end of it. It was like my room, but it was more... cool, and beautiful. I started to look around the place, the thing i noticed the most, was how nature takes over the place, taking what was his before the bulding was made. Louis touch my shoulder "Beautiful, isn't?" i turn my head, and answered "Yeah... yeah it is."

Louise let out his kind and happy smile, and pat my shoulder to continue. We walk to the right, and enter to a room that looked like a library. In the middle, a big piano. Louise got to the piano, sit down on the little chair, and made a melody, a calmly one. As Louise played it, i felt like flying, like the notes could touch me... like i could feel them. That's the thing about music... you can almost feel it.

Louis finish his song, and immediately ask "You play any instrument Ethan?". As a matter of fact, i do... well... us to. "I used to play bass. My dad brought it to me in one of his search. I used to play at night, trying to play the songs on my walkam," Louis looked impressed. He smiled, and said with a slow voice the word "Cool," then continued "I could use some rhythm,".

I let out some air, and said "Well if you found one, tell me." Louis snap his fingers, making finger guns, and said "Sure thing,". After that, Louis went to the back of the piano, and grab the leather jacket. He approached to me, and showed me the jacket. The jacket had a dark blue color, with some stitches in the left sleeve.
