The Blind Piano

44

We walk down the road heading to the car. Few feat away I see a lady selling Balloons. She calls out in  high pitch voice for sale.

"Harry I want one"

I look at Summer in disbelief

" A balloon?" I ask

"Yes"

I try my best not to laugh

"Ok"

I stop by that lady and purchase a big heart balloon from her. I give it to Summer and she happily takes it.

"Awe you too are so cute" That lady says in awe

"Thank you" I say

I see Summer frown for a moment but then she becomes happy again , bouncing her balloon up and down. Soon we reach the car and I find Steve sleeping in his seat.I tap him up and at once he startles up.

"Ready to go?" He asks

I nod

"Do you want to drive or I'll drive?" I ask

"I'll be fine thanks"

I put All our bags in the front seat and tie the balloon to one of them. I help Summer to get in the back and I get in. Steve starts the car and at once she snuggles up to me for another snooze. I relax into my seat and wrap my arms around her. I close my eyes and soon I fall asleep again.

"Harry" I here a soft voice call

I open my eyes and find myself alone in the car. I turn to the side to see Summer standing out and bending towards me. I kiss her cheeks and she chuckles. I get out and wash my face with some water. Then I shake Steve's hand.

"Thanks mate"

He nods and we walk up to the garage. He opens it and I go in and pull the bike out. I get on the bike and turn it around. Steve hangs the bags on the bike and helps Summer get on the bike. He hands us both our helmets and we wear it. He gives Summer her Balloon and she smiles.

"Bye" Summer says

We wave to him and I start the bike.She yells again in excitement like before. I chuckle and yell along with her. After that we both start laughing. Through the mirror I see her let go of the balloon.

"Bye bye balloon" She says sounding like a kid.

I chuckle .

She wraps her arms around me and rests her head on my back.

"This is awesome" she whispers

I smile happily.

After about an hour of driving in begins to rain.

"Shit" I curse under my breath

"Get down" I say as I stop the bike

Instead of getting down she grips onto me tighter

"No I like it here" she whines

"Sum get down its raining hard"

"But I like the rain Harry"

"Please Summer. Get down. We are gonna catch a cold"

She finally listens and gets down. I quickly get down and lock the bike. I grab her hand to run but she doesn't budge

"Please. I wanna play in the rain. Mama never lets me do it" She whines like a child

I chuckle and give up

"Ok fine"

She smiles and removes her helmet. She starts jumping and spinning around . I remove my helmet and take both of ours and lock it on the bike. A loud thunder noise makes her jump and cling onto me. She lifts her head and looks at me. I stare at her and her lips.
