Avianna

Chapter 25

The next morning I woke up in the arms of Alex, it was still really early so the sun hasn't come up yet.

Very slowly and carefully I started to slip out of Alex's hold and into his bathroom, I closed the door and turned on the light shielding my eyes with my hand at the light for a quick second. I did my business then washed my hands and looked at the girl starring back at me in the mirror.

Her cheeks were tear stained her green eyes looked vibrant then every from all the crying shes done, her eyes have bags under them and her hands are trembling. This girl is me, I could barely recognize my self

I splashes some water on my face and brushed my teeth with the spare tooth brush my brother had and walked out of the bathroom

Alex was still asleep snoring away, I know Im not going to be able to go back to sleep so I decided to go downstairs.

I slowly walked out of the room and closed the door behind and went downstairs trying to be as quite as possible. The clock on the wall showed 4am so the sun wasn't going to rise for a few hours

Walking through the house trying not to run into things in the process, I walked through the hallway full of family pictures and stood infront of the white oak door with gold handle also known as my happy place.

Opening it quietly I walked in closing the door behind me, I reached to my right and turned on the lamp and saw the room light up with the small light as I walked toward the piano

I stood over to the piano and starred at it, after the dream I had I dont think ill be able to play it at least not right now

Walking over to the record player, I searched the hundreds of vinyls my brothers had and took out a vinyl that my mom used to play for us when I was little

Placing it on the record player and turned the volume down so none of my brothers could hear. I walked over to the bin on the floor next to the piano and got out my sketch book and pencil and sat on the big white couch.

I closed my eyes for a moment and listened to the song, then I opened them and started drawing

I never know what im going to draw, usually whenever I take the time to actually plan it out it never really turns out the way I want It to

Whenever I draw its like im in a trance I tune out the rest of the world and only focus on the paper in front of me.

About two hours had past and I think I was finished with my sketch it was simple. A eye with a vibrant color you cant really tell what color since I only had a pencil but that just means it could be anyone, but a single tear is shed from the eye.
