Thank you, I'm Free

"I don't know you are really that good in Playing an Instrument. That's why, I can't really blame you for choosing Music than Business."

I just smiled at what he said.

When I was just a kid. I know myself that someday, I will be the heiress in our Family and will be the next leader of Divinagracia's but when I grow up. When I woke up one day. Only then did I realize that I didn't want business.

I was eight years old when i accidentally got into the Hidden Garden of our School and found someone playing a Guitar while singing. And I was really amazed because I know that person was just on my age.

His voice was so soft and cold. he was playing a sad song though but his tone aren't sad but it was still good in my ears. He was such a talent.

Starting from that day, I have imprinted in my brain that Music is what I want and I don't care if there would be anyone who will support me in our family. That's what I want, That's what I'll reach.

So yeah, That boy was really my inspiration and even though I didn't really know who he is. I am still hoping to meet him again. He was my first crush and my first idol. I still wanted to thank him.

Cuz I know, without his music. I was taking the road that was not meant for me now. He was the one who gave me the biggest realization that day.

I know I haven't seen him even once or so I thought. I didn't really see his face because he turned his back on me that time and maybe, Our path had already crossed without me even knowing it.

I didn't even know him but when I'll hear his voice again, even with a little change. I will still know him cuz until now. That voice was still on my memory.

"What did you play?"

"Kiss The Rain."

"Ah, Sad Song. You're a fan of Yiruma?" he asked so, I slowly nodded.

"Yeah, But I'm more of a fan of Richard Clayderman and Beethoven."

"I see."

"I thought you didn't know what I was playing? Why did you know about Yiruma?" I asked with a narrowed brows. A soft laughter escape in his face that made my world stop for a while.

Damn! What was happening to me all of the sudden?

"I didn't say that. I was just asking." he shrugged before he walked towards my window and down the blinds of it. I just followed him with my eyes. I'm a little used to it because I'm with him.

He is here almost every day because he has a one month vacation leave. Maybe he is abusive because his family owns the company where he works.

"So, what's your trip?"

"Nothing."

"Whatever" I rolled my eyes. My violin was also returned to Case because I lost the appetite to play even Calvin's Compliment.

I don't know but I felt uncomfortable knowing that he was just eying me.

"Where's my phone? And why are you in such a hurry after your cousin's bullying?"

"You're phone was on your nightstand if you don't notice" he pointed to the location of my cellphone. I was stunned to see that it was really on the nightstand and I didn't even know!

That means, He's been here before!

I'm really insensitive and I didn't even realize that.

"And about Devi. She said goodbye immediately because she said she's going somewhere today and she still needs to get ready. Maybe she's going out on a date."

"A date?" I asked, my brows a bit cresed. he nodded.

"Who is she dating then? Why aren't she even telling me about it?" he just shrugged so I rolled my eyes. I hang up the Violin and opened the Sliding Door of the Terrace.

That's where I'll hang out.

He followed me and sat in the chair next to me. There's only one meter distance between us. Nevertheless, We are still close to each other. the silence of the atmosphere is making me feel tensed.

It was good and he spoke.

"What's your plan?"

I turned to him and frowned. "What plan are you talking about?"

"About your family issue, Are you going to make up with them or-"

I cut him off. "No, there's no way I would do that." I took a deep breath and sighed. "Okay, I know that everything was all my fault because I disobeyed them the second time around."

He just stared at me so I continued. "But it's tiring to be dependent on them. they interfere with my life too much. They wanted me to be someone whom I don't wanted to be. And I have the rights to decide for myself right?"

He nodded.

The two of us fell silent again. I can feel his stare but I can't help it because I'm thinking deeply and it travels far.

I'm still thinking of building my own life where I was the one who rules of it. the problem is, I still can't let go of my family and cut them out of my life as if they were not my blood.

Maybe soon ... I could make it up with them. When they would already understand me but not now.

Because I know that they still can't accept about what I did. even more so now that they all thought I had married someone they didn't know and to our own enemy. Well thanks to Calvin.

I looked at him quietly to one side and looked away. I smiled unconsciously because I wouldn't really have thought that he could make such lie just because to save me.

It's a good thing that Luise also doesn't want that Engagement so our secret was safe with him. Why is it that the fate is playful and my fiance would have been really related to my fake husband?

This is really frustrating. I think Destiny was playing us and whatever may came up because of what I and Calvin have done. I am still not yet ready to face it. so hopefully everything will be fine one day.

I just love my family so much that I can't resist them.

I glanced at Calvin again and silently thanked him while staring into his face.

I can't imagine what would ever happen to me if he didn't come in that day. I'll be surely doomed. Thanks to him, I am still free.
