A piano but who's playing it? I was in a room bright red carpet and dark wooden walls. Grand staircases two to be exact. A door in between them, was that where this melody was coming from? The music flew in my ears these notes sounded so familiar and yet so distant. My heart skipped a beat to dance to the rhythm, as I walked closer the music became homier, not like I would know. Glimpses of memories from this evening clouded my mind. Shaking them off I stilled continued towards the door my hand pulling it open a grand piano when my eyes focused on the chair Ray was there. Roses next to him, as I was drawn closer to him I took in my surroundings some more, but they all were indescribable because my main focus was on Ray. Suddenly everything went black and I heard a child crying. Who is crying? My vision was back and everything was different. This time I was in some kind of living room it looked like it belonged to a filthy rich family. A little boy was crying on the couch and a father was lecturing him.

"See what happens when you care for something. Never fall for anyone because they fragile. Your mother left you because you showed weakness maybe we don't need you around anymore. The only thing you can do right is let us down." The kid started crying, but I had the sense he was trying to hold all his tears which was tearing him apart from the inside out. How can this father be so awful to a child that is only about eight years old? Then out of nowhere the father took another step closer to the child. As he did the child cringed to protect himself, then a small flame appeared behind the father.

"Stay away, don't hit me again." He screamed and the fire engulfed the father and he disappeared even the ashes were gone. Not a single trace left, only the tears overflowing from the child's eyes. "I'm a monster, why do I exist? Anyone who gets close to me leaves. No matter what I'll stay away from everyone so I can't get hurt anymore." Tears dropped off of my face. This is just too harsh to watch poor kid. A person walked in, was it his little sister? She looked only seven so not too much younger than the boy.

"You're a monster, die. Just looking at you makes me sick, you're a disgrace to this family." Suddenly the girl pulled out a knife. "Just die already!" As she got close to him she burned up into flames. The boy bawled his eyes out, I wanted to run over, and give him the biggest hug of his life. Someone woke me up shaking me.
