Weeks went by and you could play the piano better and better. Tobias was simply a good teacher. Sometimes you wondered how you were still happy after what happened last week. The teachers were exaggerating about homework again and your mother was yelling at you every day for reasons that didn't even make sense. There was also a huge fight between Tobias and his band that caused them to break up.

Annoyed you sat on Tobias bed while he was dawdle around. You were fed up and you wanted to have a different atmosphere in the room. "Tobias, lets go! You can not lie in bed all day and have a bad mood! At some point enough is enough..." "and what do you want to do about it? You can come back tomorrow for piano lessons," he hissed back as he turned the covers over his head.

Speechless, you stood there, momentarily confused as to what to say now. "You gotta kidding me? No I do not leave this place!" you pulled on his blanket so that it fell to the floor, while Tobias looked at you angrily. "Stop looking at me like that or I'll be out of here forever! Ok... I'm sorry that your band broke up but you know what. They were too bad for such a talented Tobias like you. Well, then they are your friends but they were not the right ones for you. Somewhere in the world the right people are waiting with whom you will build a perfectly harmonized band. So if you want to go on crying about it then I'll go, but if you just accept it the way it is then give me a piano lesson now. Tobias you are perfect and teach your untalented girlfriend the piano, play every instrument and manage school by the side... just.. you know what... I'll be back tomorrow... see you."

You feel tears welling up in your eyes, which is why you just wanted to leave quickly. Tobias was thinking about something stern so you slung your bag over your shoulder and left.

Just as you were leaving his room, the guilt started to come.

Was it a little too mean of you? Should you have reacted differently? Will he be mad at you for a long time now?

You just reached the stairs to go down when he grabbed you by the wrist and turned you around to face him. "Are you skipping a piano lesson Madame?" he grinned, which also brought a smile to your face and you felt yourself getting happier again and the guilt was complete nonsense.

Tobias was well again, but your psyche was hardly well. Your only goal at the moment was simply to finish school and then finally be able to study.

You just came home from school when your mother screamed through the whole house again and insulted everything she saw.

You tried to walk quietly around the living room to get to the stairs so that you could go upstairs to your room without your mother finding out. Unfortunately it was an old staircase and already at the first step the wood squeaked under you.

Your pulse started to rise and you heard footsteps coming closer and closer.

"Oh hello darling. Come on, I made you dinner." with a smile she came closer and led you into the kitchen although you didn't really want it.

It was as if she had bewitched you, you ordered your feet to stop but they went closer to the kitchen, or as you call it "hell".

You arrive in the kitchen and still didn't know what was going on with your mother. She must have noticed that you hesitated to sit down.

"Sit down... I cooked your favorite meal. Once again a mother daughter thing..." your hands started to sweat as you sat down and your mother across from you.

Confused you picked up the knife and fork and started eating. "You honey...you know...I wanted to apologize...you haven't had it easy these past few weeks...I hope I can make it up to you somehow."

It was quiet as you ate while your head was exploding. You knew your mother would want an answer or you'd never get out of the kitchen. You mustered up all your courage and said.

"How high are you? Never in your life would you ever apologize to me after what you did to me. You are proud of hurting me so many times..."

Your mom's face changed drastically. Her sweet smile turned into a angry face. You think about how you can get out of here quickly without her running after you with a knife.

She stood up and then leaned across the table to you. "You stupid bitch." Now you smelled a huge cloud of alcohol out of her mouth. Everything that was on the table lay next to the table after she swept everything off the table with a wipe. "Pack your things and get out of here. I never want to see you again!" you got up from the chair and tried not to step on all the broken pieces.

Since you were so distracted, not having any porcelain in your foot, you forgot about your mother. Just as you were about to look at her, she pushed you so hard that you fell on your butt.

Seconds later, you feel a sharp pain in your hand and see blood running down your hand. "Are you stupid!?" you scream painfully. "Oh did you hurt yourself? Stop crying and pack your stuff..." your mother laughed while tears ran down your face.

You tried to stand up but the stabbing pain went through your body that you gave up.

Your mother came closer and closer to you, so you tried to crawl backwards, but at some point you felt the wall in your back and there was no turning back.

She looked into your soul, which is why you couldn't keep constant eye contact.

You saw how she raised her hand and was ready to hit you again while you were sitting in the corner crying with bloodstained clothes and just wanted to get out of here.
