Walkens and I finally finished rehearsing and decided to look for something to eat.
"I'll head back to Dock St. to look for some food, you go ahead and look around our place alright?"
I nod and listen to Walkens. As I walk back to their place, I see the Popcorn Mania Shop.
I see the owner that told Karmin to stop, but I don't see Karmin.
I'm guessing that the owner has other children because I see the same people from the day before.
I decided to go inside the shop. "Welcome to the Popcorn Mania Shop how may I-" The owner stops, and so does everyone else.
Everyone was staring at me. I mean I don't know what I did wrong. "..help you.." The owner finishes.
I focus my eyes on something else besides his. I see a piano, so I point to it. "You want to play that old junk?" He says.
I nod and look back at him. "Go ahead Don," I walk over to the piano and sit on the sturdy stool, that still has dust on it, but I didn't care.
I open the cover to the piano and I thought it was beautiful, because it was all black and white.
The keys were also covered in dust, but that's what made it special. I pressed on one key in particular and it made a sound.
I can feel everyones eyes staring at the back of my head. I can feel the burns in their eyes, but that didn't matter. Only the piano mattered.
Without thinking, I begin playing a song I never heard, but somehow my hands knew it.
The melody was so beautiful and I began tilting my head, left and right, along with the song. The burning in their eyes were gone and I didn't feel hesitant anymore.
As my hands were about to stop playing, a man comes from behind me and says, "That's enough son, let's get outta here,"
It was Walkens and he grabbed me by the hand and out the door. I can hear the owner yelling behind me saying, "WAIT I NEED TO TALK TO HIM!"
"You don't need shit, with my boy," Walkens says it so deep and clearly, that the owner shut his mouth.

"Now what in the name of Jesus were you doing in there!" Walkens yells at me. I honestly don't know, but a part of me knew every reason and why.
I felt like Walkens was interrogating me, like those cops in movies. "Charlie, he's just a kid," Mrs. Walkens says while grabbing onto his arm, for comfort.
"Darcy I.." Walkens tries to finish, but instead he gently pushes off Mrs. Walkens hand, off of his arm. "I.. can't live like this anymore,"
"We've already talked 'bout this, Charlie.." Mrs. Walkens says as she tries to keep her emotions in, after Walkens pushed her hand off of him.
I stood there looking into Walkens eyes while he was staring into Mrs. Walkens. He looked depressed, angry, and helpless.
I've never seen anyone so detailed in emotion and depth, as much as Walkens. I'm completely lost into my thoughts that my ears begin to block out what they are saying.
I stare at them in confusion as Mr. and Mrs. Walkens spit out words to me that I did not understand.
All of a sudden, the room becomes black and white. My eyes are taking me to a whole 'nother dimension.
I haven't blacked out, I just somehow managed myself to do something that I have honestly never seen before.
Suddenly I hear a snap, the room that was once black and white, is now plain white. "I knew it." I hear behind me.
