Nadir POV
“Erik? You in there?” I ask as I knock on the door of the music room. The piano stops abruptly, but the door stays locked.
“Erik if you don’t open this door I will break it down.” I hear nothing behind the door. I am about to ram into the door when the door opens up abruptly.
“What do you want.” Erik says in a cold voice. But I also hear a hint of his voice cracking. I can see his are puffy and red from crying.
“Erik are...are you okay?”
“I’m fine.”
“Erik is this about you and Christine?”
“I said I am fine.”
“No you are not. I’ve been talking to Christine.”
“Oh are you her shoulder to cry on now?” I detect such coldness from his voice.
“Erik stop being such an arse for a few seconds and listen to me!” Erik doesn’t respond but I continue anyways. “She loves you Erik, and you keep pushing her away! I’m afraid she is going to kill herself one of these days.” Erik looked up when I said the last part.
“HOW DARE YOU! HOW DARE YOU SAY I DON’T LOVE HER!” Erik’s yelled, his throat throbbing like a furnace. “SHE IS MY LIFE AND MUSE!” He pushed passed me and started storming to her room.
