Chapter 15

"What's the meaning of this Lisa!" Luther yells, his mum tries to calm him down 

"Calm down, that's not how you handle things!" 

"Stay out of it mother!" I could tell Luthers mum was instantly dumb founded, but could you blame him?, with how hard his working and paying for her ballet tuition

"Lisa,if you don't give me a good reason why you've been skipping lessons, I swear I am going to bury you alive". She doesn't say anything " Lisa!" He yells catching everyone by surprise, damn that gave me quite a shock

She starts crying "I'm sorry" she runs away

"Damn it!" Luther kicks something 

I touch his shoulder "Let me talk to her". He grunts and walks away

I let out a sigh.

I looked for her all over, I didnt find her in the bed rooms, I enter the pizzeria, I call for her, but she doesn't answer.

I enter the kitchen, I hear sobs, I walk towards the counter 

" There you are". I said with a bright smile

"How did you find me?". She was sited on the floor, I join her.

" Well, I'm really good at hide and seek".

"Dad must hate me".

" I wouldn't say that, he's just really angry". She doesn't say anything "May I ask, why you did that?, why weren't you going for practice?, where did you go does times you were dropped off".

" You wouldn't understand, my dad loves me doing ballet, but I'm sick of it, I just go there to make him happy, I knew he'd be disappointed when he learns I quit"

I nod "I understand,  the reason you quit is it because you're really tired of it?".

"Well, I wasn't any good, I wasn't like the other girls"

"When I was a kid I use to play the violin, I loved it so much, my father always listened to me play every evening. He signed me up for this academy so I can improve, I was so happy, I got to learn with others and challenge myself, but then I started to hear the other kids say the instructors just go easy on me because I'm blind that I wasn't really good at it, I was so frustrated I forgot the reason why I played the violin, it felt like I was in a battlefield, so I practiced day and night just to improve, but I felt I wasn't getting any good, no matter how hard I tried the other kids said the same thing, so I quit, and I never played the violin again".

She gasps "Really?"

"Yup, really. Your father paid for your lessons because he saw how much you loved It, not because he wants you to be as good as the other girls, ballet is about passion, your love for it will show when you dance, and you will become better than those other girls when you start  dancing because it makes you happy, so tell me, Do you love ballet?".

She sighs "I really do".

I smile " Then go for it, if you want to quit, no one is stopping you".

"Do you regret it?, quitting Violin?".

"Everyday".

She sighs " I will think about it, in the meantime, I better go apologies to dad, thank you so much". She gets on her feet, she helps me up and runs off.







                          JESSES POV


I punch Stella, she falls to the ground, I grab her hair, she screams silently in pain, I make her look me in the eyes.

"Do you enjoy the pain?" I kick her on her tummy, still grabbing her by her hair.

"I'm sorry". 

" Fuck you!" I yell punching her on her face, releasing her from my grib, she tries to catch to her breath, she suddenly spits out blood. "This is your fault Stella, your fault!". My phone suddenly rings, I pick it up "Hello?". 

I hear my secretary voice 
___" You better stop by the office sir".

"I'll be there soon". I end the call. I throw stella a white handkerchief " clean your self up, arrange another meeting with the lawyer, this time threaten we'll take him to court, he has no right to keep those assets from me".

She forcefully replies "Ye-yes sir".

I wear a smirk "Good girl". I walk out.





                        VIOLET'S POV


  " Thank you for talking to Lisa". Luther said walking in on me


"That's no problem, really". 


"It means a lot to me, thank you, and uhmmm, yea, how are you feeling these days?".

"Okay, I guess".


" Violet, if there's anything-".

"Thank you, but I'm fine really, Jesse has already won, he has everything now, and there's nothing I can do about it". Luther remains quiet, he takes a sit next to me on the bed.

"If there is a way, would you go for it?".

" W-what do you mean?".

He sighs "What if I told you it's not too late?".

What is he trying to say?, I should fight?, how can someone like me start a battle and win it?, then again, the shadow I see at night, the snapping of my father fingers, the tears of my unborn child all haunt me....and it's all because of him, the one I loved with everything, the one who caused me nothing but pain,I want to take everything from him bit by bit and watch him fall.

"Even if so, where do I even begin?, how will I even- ".

He takes my hand "You have me remember".

"No way, I couldn't possibly-".

"Hey, your father was like my father, he took good care of me, and he made me promise to always be there for you, to protect you"

I shake my head "No, I can't".

" Hey, have you ever wondered what made me run towards a bomb blast?". my eyes widen 


                      JESSES POV

I walk towards my office my secretary rushes to me 

" Sir there's someone waiting for you at the office".

"who is it?".

" I don't know, but you might be-"i open the door.

I couldn't believe me, I felt my heart instantly fall out of my chest, I rub my eyes with my hands hoping i wasn't dreaming or seeing things.

She wears a smile, she stands up from the chair, she walks toward me "Hi, honey".

" Vi-Violet?".

The real reason I ran toward that bomb blast wasn't because I was looking for survivors, the real reason is hard to believe, but I felt something pulling me toward that area, or rather someone, that's when I saw you, I don't believe in the supernatural but that alone is the world telling you, you aren't done yet, Violet, your father has always believed in you, now is time for you to show him he was right to do so.
