A Fall Thru The Ground - Chapter 4
*cough* it is the first chapter by me, and the first chapter in 2017, I hope it still ok :) Enjoy!
Something bright. Itâs a light of the sun that shining into my closed eye. I never woke up to the light of the sun, I donât know why. But today it was a reason to stand from bed. Second reason was that I slept today not on my bed and not in my home. God damn⌠Home. I need to go, but I donât want to. I think everybody is understanding my position. What Iâll say to John? It will be ugly on my part to stay⌠I stood up from bed and my head wasnât hurting. Strange, but ok, thatâs good. I look around the room, Iâll call this âbedroom for minimalistsâ. Thereâs was a bed, drawer, little carpet and not for my surprise - another guitar. Memories are bumped into my mind. When I was a kid, my cousin from New Zealand tried to teach me to guitar mastery. It was fun, she always saying:âI need to teach you, not stupid teacher. People who are going to music schools are jerks.âBut she died when I was 12. Still missing her so much.
I sat on the floor and grabbed a guitar so quiet, because I donât know how much is it now and I can woke up John. I felt guitar in my arms and trying to play something. But nothing. My fingers doesnât listen to me and thatâs why a lot of weird sounds are coming from this poor acoustic guitar.
-Good morning, Li - I heard Johnâs voice behind my back. Fuck, I was so much in my âmusicâ, that I didnât hear how he walk in. I jumped a bit on the floor and quickly set aside a guitar.
-Oh⌠Mmm⌠Hi - I said nervous. -Iâm sorry that I grabbed your instrument and I didnât asked you. -Are you kidding? Iâm happy that you did it, that was awesome
-Hah, thank you⌠I mean, I havenât touched the guitar for like 7 years - I said. -Do you know how much time is it now?
-Umm, somewhere around 8 am - he answered.
-Iâm sorry, I need to go
I quickly stood up from the floor and start to going away. I can hear that John tried to stop me, screaming "Li!â, I pretended that I canât hear him. I was almost standing out of door, but at the last moment cold and firm hand took my arm. It made me stop.
-I said something wrong? Why you are going? - he said with an angelic voice and face.
-No, no⌠I just need to go, John - I tried to go away again but he didnât let me.
-Please say whatâs wrong, as you going home to your parents?
-No, I just⌠Have a meeting with my friend, sheâs just waiting me and Iâm late, so I think you understand me
-And you wouldnât even take a breakfast?
-No, Iâm not hungry, bye - I said, close the door and start running to somewhere.
Of course I havenât any friends, and of course I havenât any meetings with them. Voices⌠Voices in my head talked to me and they said to go away from this house. I donât know why they wanted me to do this, but actually they calling me to listen to them when a place have got a ghosts or just a some vibrations. If these âvibrationsâ are bad, voices start to attack myself with prayers to go away from this place.
I walked through the streets, thinking about my childhood. It was an amazing time. I had friends, parents who loves me⌠Bright days. I didnât listen to the music so much that time then now. I listened to some music from the radio and I didnât really care who is it, what song is it. But when I became a teenager it starts touching my soul. Then I start listen to jazz, punk and rock. Music became my addition. Music - beautiful drug.
I wanted to drink, thatâs why I walked into small bar through the street.
-Good morning! Want something? - A barman girl with blue hair asked me, when I came.
-Just water please - I said taking a seat
-One dollar
Fuck, have I got any money? My hands walked into some of my pockets in jeans. I was nervous, because if I wouldnât find this mother fucking dollar I couldnât even drink a cup of water. Yes! I find it! A little chewed up piece of paper. I gave it to this girl.
-Something happened kiddo? You are looking tired - she said taking a bank note. âŚârunââŚ
Voices again⌠Today I didnât look through the mirror, but I feel really tired like this girl said. Expect that fact, that now is a morning time.
-Hey girl? -Iâm sorry, goodbye - I said and ran away from the bar.
