"Aerith, come and help us with the boxes!" Aerith mother shouts her name from the living room. As she explores her room and the house, she looks at her closet and saw birds drawn on the wall. 'Birds?' She said to herself and slowly places her hand against the wall. "Aerith!" Aerith brothers shouts her name, she snaps out of her thoughts. "C-Coming!" She slowly walks out her room and heads out to the front yard. "Darlin' you got stones in your ears?!" Aerith's mother sighs and hands her a couple of boxes. "Go and put these in the living room, the second one." Aerith nods and follows her instructions.
"How has she been doing?" A friend of Aerith's mother asks as she raises her brow and smiles. "Quite as always, she is nothing but a stick in mud. Never likes to go out with friends." Aerith's mother sighs and wipes the sweat from her forehead. "I can see why, she is a very good kid-." "Although she struggles a lot in school, ever since Aerith turned 12...she changed..." "Cheer up hon, you know Aerith is safe now!" Liz, a long time friend of Aerith's mother. Took care of her when she was sick. "I know..I know.." Aerith's mother fighting back her tears, she continued to take boxes out of the trunk.
"Hey sis, mind putting that paper in the mail box, make sure to tape it." Aerith's brother hands her the tape. "Sure.." Aerith slowly walks over to the counter and grabs the mail keys. "Rick.." Aerith calls her brothers name. "Yea?" Aerith's brother stops hanging the frames and looks at her, "nothing never mind.." She turns around and walks off. As she walks to mail, she looks at her ribbon on her hand.

*Aerith POV*
Heading to Band class, I was pulled by the back of my collar. "Make sure to do my stupid report!" Looking at Maria and Eve, I clenched my hand and slowly nod. As they let go of me, I rush into class and to my seat. "Alright get your notes out and your instruments." Watching everyone take their notes out and practice, I stand and walk over to Mr. White's desk. "Mr...may I practice on the piano..." "Got something new in mind?" "Yes!" I smile in excitement and he hands me the key to the piano. "Remember-." "Always be careful not to press on the notes too too hard!" I said in joy. "Good!" Rushing over to the Piano, I slowly put the key in and unlock it. "Aerith, you going to play on the piano again?" "Yes.." Selena pats my head and sat beside me. "Well show me what you got." "Ok!" I slowly put the key in my poach and roll up my sleeves. I slowly touch the notes, I close my eyes and all my memories rush in my mind like a waterfall.
"Dont hurt me!" "Your nothing but a loser!" "When people talk shit about you...all you do is cry! But you don't even understand how we feel!" "Your nothing but a fucking pathetic worthless girl!" "You can not even follow directions! All I told you-."
'Am I really that difficult to understand? Am I truly everything what people say I am?' I slowly open my eyes and the music filling my ears. I gasp as I felt a hand against my shoulder, "Such Enigmatic performance. You surely are a strange girl." I slowly grip on my shirt and take a deep breath. "Are you ok, Aerith?"
