I'm Not Insane I Just Want To Be Free

Rachel nodded and beamed. “Why, yes I did. It’s a lullaby of some sort.”

He raised an eyebrow, taking a seat on the bench near him. “Well, let’s hear it!” A smile grew on his face as he was always excited to hear Rachel play.

She nodded and opened the case. The first thing she picked up was the bow. Then, the violin was lifted with great care. She sat beside him and positioned the violin, along with the bow. She started playing Brahm’s Lullaby.

The statue leaned back as he listened to the music. It was things like this that made Rachel the one human he didn't hate. He was half tempted to run and get his own violin to learn the new song, but he waited until she would draw the bow from the strings.

Rachel nodded and beamed. “Why, yes I did. It’s a lullaby of some sort.”

He raised an eyebrow, taking a seat on the bench near him. "Well, let's hear it!" A smile grew on his face as he was always excited to hear Rachel play.

Sorry I haven’t been online much, guys. I’m still sorta recovering from my wisdom tooth surgery. I should be fully back on the computer by tomorrow and replies should start getting done then too. Thank you for bearing with me through this!!

“That’s good. The park really doesn’t need those kind of kids around here.” She mumbled the last part, looking around.

Karl nodded in agreement before glancing at the violin case. "So, did you learn any new songs?"

Rachel giggled. “And how did that end?” Even though she had a feeling she knew the answer to that question.

The statue laughed, remembering that night. "They ran out of the park of course! I'm sure they won't come back for a while." The smile on his face was almost a triumphant one.

Send ♫ for my muse to sing a song that I’ve recently heard!

She moved her head side-to-side. “Yes, but nothing of much importance. Anything new here?”

Karl gave a shrug, followed by a wobbly hand motion. "Not really, a few kids came by to explore the 'haunted amusement park." He explained.

Rachel smiled gently at the statue. “I wish I could come by more often. I’ve missed you.” She set down the violin case that she always brought with, in case he wanted her to play.

"I've missed you as well. It gets quite lonely being the only violinist here." He responded. "Anything new in the outside world?"
