I stay in the bathroom for a few seconds, mulling over the events that have just happened. I don't really understand what Mei had. I decide to go back to my sister's room where Mei had run away. I find Mei and my sister sitting on her bed. They both look up when they hear my footsteps. I carefully observe Mei's face. Her eyes which were slightly red to see crying, her rosy cheek which makes you want to kiss them, her thin lips which are naturally red. Without even calculating my sister I whisper to Mei:
-How's it going ?
Mei looks down and gets out of bed and whispers to me:
-Let's talk in your room.
I look into her eyes and follow her. Arriving in my room I close the door behind me and turn towards Mei. Without even giving me time to ask her what's going on, she whispers:
-Sorry about Valentin just now.
-It doesn't matter Mei, but explain to me why I saw you crying.
-I am sensitive to music as you can see and at the moment I am experiencing not very happy things with my family and people I know which intensifies my sensitivity.
-I understand but if you want to talk about it I'm here and so is my sister.
-Yes thank you I will think about it next time I come to see you or your sister.
-No problem, it's normal.
I slowly walk towards her. While we are only a few centimeters away she surrounds me with her arms at my waist and gives me a hug with her head touching my chest. I had a chill that ran through my whole body. I in turn circled my hands at her waist. We stay like that for a few minutes when she pulls away and exclaims:
-I'll have to go back with Kiara otherwise she'll wonder what I'm doing.
-Yes of course, go ahead
I move aside so Mei can get to the door and leave. Once my bedroom door slammed, I flopped onto my bed. I can't fall in love with this girl. Putin Valentin does not fall in love with this girl. I decide to take my mind off things by putting on my wireless headphones and playing "Youth" by Glass Animal. The first words resonate in my headphones:
Shadows settle on the place that you left Our minds are troubled by the emptiness Destroy the middle, it's a waste of time From the perfect start to the finish line
I lie comfortably on the musical notes and close my eyes as the chorus rings in my ears I move my head to the rhythm:
And if you're still breathing, you're the lucky ones 'Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs Setting fire to our insides for fun Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong The lovers that went wrong
After several pieces of music I fell asleep with my head peaceful and full of music.
