TRIGGER WARNINGS
[HIStory/Blood On The Dance Floor/Ghosts Era]
Synopsis:
Samantha is dealing with her own dark story after she lost someone...
Samantha loves to go to antique shops. She has these string bracelets on her wrists. Some stuff inside her bedroom came from these shops. Wooden or woven frames, a random table decoration, or even the carvings on her wall were bought from the shop.
Maybe, it is her form of escape. There is something about old things that she can't let go. She might be a little sentimental because of what she is doing but buying from antique shops is making her happy.
Just like now, she is in a shop.
Samantha knows the owner, Jose. He is an old man, almost in his seventies. But, just like some of the old men, he is unhappy. No one can see him smiling. It's like, there's a hurricane of thoughts in his mind. Like he knows everything. Everything.
He has a younger shop assistant named Celo and he is the one who is assisting Samantha in buying her new interest. Like his boss, Celo has a lot in his mind too but it is milder than Jose. He is always staring through the soul as if he can see your future.
"I think I like this one." Samantha smiled. She really find joy in these kind of stuff.
An acoustic guitar.
Samantha is interested to buy a guitar.
The instrument that caught her attention is still in good condition. The head and the body are still intact and the surface is smooth and brown. There are no scratches or carvings. Samantha chose that brown guitar because it seemed familiar but then, most of the guitars that she saw are brown and shared the same size.
She paid for the guitar but she left it in the shop so they can fix it for her. The strings are already loose and it really needed some replacement. She asked Celo to replace all the strings, tune it, and polish the instrument for her.

The guitar triggered another memory in her mind. Henry is always holding his guitar, trying to compose a new song. He keeps on singing random songs too. He is a great guitarist and he also taught Samantha how to play it but, she never had a grasp of it.
Maybe it is the reason why Samantha changed her mind and decided to learn how to play the guitar. But she needs to keep it from her family. In their eyes, it causes and triggers her anxieties. It happened before. She is having an emotional outbursts everytime she is seeing her father's guitar. She will cry her hearts out the whole night and will not have any sleep.
So they just decided to keep it.
A treasured memory.
She even asked for a guitar similar to her father's instrument for her birthday but Eli said that it was not a good idea. Despite of that, Samantha is so determined to have her own guitar.
Back home, Samantha is having arguments with Christie and Eli. Christie has a soft personality and whenever she talks, it is like a lullaby that can calm everyone's nerves. As for Eli, he has an authoritative aura but at the same time, gentle. But when he is mad, he is really mad.
