Erik's pov
I was in my music room playing around on the piano thinking of Christine. She's been gone a long time I hope everything is alright with her. I can remember the first time I heard her sing it was like a tear falling into a pond, it was all breathtaking even though she was just a child. A child longing for someones guidance.
Wandering child so lost so helpless
Yearning for my guidance
I would always sing that to her when ever I knew she was upset. I don't really know what we are anymore. The thing is we are still married. I just tricket her again to see how long she could stay away from me. But I did'nt expect Henry to be there! So I had to improvice besides I missed her so I asked her to come back. Thankfully she did. Sometime in the future I might propose again so she can finally have her big wedding with me standing by her side without worry for me.
I never really sighned the divorce papers I just made shore she would believe me and I payed my lawyer not to breath a word about this. I made a copy of it thought in case I would change my mind. But it never came everyday felt like those ten long years all over again. Everyone thinks we are divorced so if she wants to come back with me she'll just have to marry me.
I know I should so stupid just sitting here talking to myself about my wife but I am the only one I can truly ever trust except for my boy. I don't want to lie to him.
I still remember that first song I wrote about Christine a year into our friendship. Slowly I began to play in my darkness.
No one would listen
No one but her heard as the outcast hears
Shamed into solitude shunned by the multitude I learned to listen in my dark my heart heard music
I long to teach the world rise up and reach the world I learned to listen in my dark my heart heard music
Then at last a voice in the gloom seemed to cry I hear you I hear your fears
Your torment and your tears
She saw my loneliness shared in my emptyness
No one would listen no one but her
Heard as the outcasts hears....
"That was beautiful" Christine said sneaking up behind me and placing a hand in my shoulder. "All for you" I said with tears in my eyes. She deserves the very best. From now one I'll be as good as I can be to her. I want to succeed this time. "Erik there is something I need to tell you"
She said while pacing faster around the room back and forth oh what now?
"I'm pregnant. With twins".
