Things were getting better. I had finally calmed Santo down and made him a cup of hot chocolate. He looked really torn between emotions and his smile that once graced his face wasn't there anymore. He was extremely quiet and I really didn't like it.
"Santo? Please look at me" He had been staring at the ground the whole time, tears welled up in his eyes.
"Rosie, I can't do this. I really can't. She left when I needed her the most. I was on my knees begging her to stay but she just looked at me with disgust. Her own son. I vowed that i would never trust her or let her in my lifee ever again." He said anger shining in his eyes but his voice cracking. I wrapped my arms around him as his shook with sobs.
I got up after awhile and went to the piano. I began to play one of my favorite songs by Alicia Keys. He looked at me surprised at my piano playing. I began to sing the lyrics softly.
Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power, yeah
Some people live just to play the game
Some people think that the physical things
Define what's within
And I've been there before
But that life's a bore
So full of the superficial
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, Yeah
Halfways through theh song Santo came and played the piano with me. I looked at him, smiling, and leaned my head on his shoulder as I continued to sing
Some people search for a fountain
That promises forever young
Some people need three dozen roses
And that's the only way to prove you love them
Hand me the world on a silver platter
And what good would it be
With no one to share
With no one who truly cares for me
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, you, you
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, yeah
If I ain't got you with me baby
So nothing in this whole wide world don't mean a thing
If I ain't got you with me baby
As the song came to a close I hugged Santo close to me. I lifted his face so he could look me in the eyes. "I promise that nothing will hurt you as long as I am there to protect you. No one wil touch you. No one will make tears of sadness fall down your cheek ever again. I promise this to you" I said as I kissed the tears sliding down his cheeks. I hugged him close as his strong arms wrapped around my waist. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I know It's been an extremely long wait but I hoped you like the chapter.
