Hope|| mattheo riddle

Part 28

Maria's pov

And we came to my house. I am standing with Mattheo's hand wrapped around my waist, my heart is beating very fast. I think that the heart will not be able to hold back and will fall out.

 I feel soft lips on my cheek. Mattheo places a kiss on my cheek and whispers. "Everything will be fine princess" and kisses me close to my ear. I took a deep breath, smiled at myself and turned to Mattheo. "Should I wait here or follow you?" he asks, looking into my eyes. "Come in, I prefer it this way" I say, blinking my eyes quickly, turning to the door and knocking.

Doors open, I forget how to breathe. Mattheo stands behind me... 

My mother half-opens the door, only half of her is visible, not completely out, standing on the threshold. she looked at me but immediately turned her attention to Mattheo, raised a slight eyebrow but said nothing.

her gaze returned to me again, "Come in" she said calmly, but I could feel the anger and excitement in her voice. Mattheo and I entered the house and entered the living room. I don't miss home...

I looked back at Mattheo, he smiled a little at me, he didn't want to make me more nervous, he knew I was already in a panic. "Maria, follow me into the room," he said and looked at Mattheo.  "you stay here, sit down" said my mother.

We went to my room not far from the living room, I'm sure the sound will go from this room to the living room. I remember crying in my room after my father beat up me. I remember how he would turn the TV on in the living room or just put a sound deadening spell on my room so he wouldn't hear me cry.

My mother closed the door and I sat on my bed. she looked at me with a disappointed look. "You came with him didn't you?" she said with anger in her eyes, my mother is a calm and patient woman but my father got on her nerves too much...

"Yes, I came with him" I said, looking up at her and looking into her eyes. Out of nowhere, my courage came back to me, why I don't know the end of my character, I don't know myself. "It's good... you're answering me as always," she said. "Do you remember what I told you when you were going to Hogwarts, do you remember what I bag you?" she asked me in a loud voice, she was acting like a father... "I asked you not to get into a turban, not to fight! And stay away from Riddle!" she said, already shouting. I looked into her eyes and listened, no tears, No return of words, I'm used to listening to them, how they blame me, and I don't take it too close to my heart. My character is always changing. My father was always annoyed by how insensitively I listened, as if I made him feel bad, he analyzed that I was already used to his words. I always know how to annoy someone and destroy their patience. The funniest thing is that at that moment I really care about what they are saying and how they are cursing me. It's as if the brain ignores it but keeps the memory. After a fight, in the evening, when in a warm bed, they come, all the words, all the behavior. All the answers come to mind and make me want to die that minute, that second, that moment.

"That sad look as always, you look like your father" are the most painful words when I am compared to him, they compare me to my father. Again I say nothing and listen.

"Maria, these are all problems, we are already immersed in problems, you add one more! by communicating with him. Come to your senses!" she yelled at me. Here I could not stop and answered. "problem. he's a problem for you, mom. Think about it, please, he is the only one who understood me, who gave me hope that something was good in this rotten life. do you hear me! You always wanted me not to lose hope. And I lost it... and when I found  hope- finally  you ask me to let it go?!" I said, I was screaming... I was choking on tears, but I didn't let the tears fall out of my eyes.

My mother was just looking at me. "You don't even know how bad I was, you don't know! And you will never know. I love him, understand! I love him..." I said. I can see how my mother wants to say something. "Maria" but I interrupt. "No no mom I love him. You were telling me. Don't judge anyone because of their backstory or reputation, and now you're acting like that. I will not leave Hogwarts, you understand! I have friends there who are like family to me, and I will not lose them. I don't want to lose you either. I won't lose you..." I said. The tears came out...

she looks at me with regret already on her face... "Okay, okay... I'm sorry" she says and puts her hand on her head, she is full of sadness. I hug her, I am in her arms. "I just don't want you to worry again Maria. I'm just protecting you from what happened to me," she said and kissed my forehead. "I know mom...".

We got out of the hug. "I know i was to much, okay?... just don't hide anything from me.. of course you won't leave Hogwarts-" I didn't finish the sentence and hugged her tightly. "And you your boyfriend he needs to  take care of you..." she said and smiled at me. "Thank you mom I love you." "I love you too" she said. "Let's go out. Let's not make him wait. i think he is worried about you"

We left the room, I wiped my tears. Mattheo was already standing, I ran up to him and hugged him, where I was already telling him that my mother would let us. But he whispered. "I heard everything princess" he said and I smiled, he kissed my forehead, looked at my mother and said. "I'll take care of you girl miss." My mother smiled and we talked for a while, but we soon left because the train was going to overtake us.

I was standing at the station, waiting for the train, his hand on my waist. He looks at me with a smile and says. "Hope? Did I bring back you hope?". I laughed and looked around the stables. "Yes, you bring my hope back"
