Vera's POV

"Julius!"

I held his lifeless body in my arms as I cried my eyes out ,and all of a sudden I was being pulled away from him as I tried my hardest to fight back but he faded away into the darkness.

"Julius!"

I sat up with my hand stretched out.

I had ragged breaths as my chest rose and fell.

I was crying as a layer of sweat coated my forehead.

I ran a hand through my hair as I tried to regulate my breathing .

I blinked slowly. My eyes felt really heavy.

Then it hit me!

Julius! W-where is he!

I looked around to see I wasn't in my room. Heck, I had no idea where I was. The room was beautiful yes but I couldn't recognise it

The room door opened and mother came in with Mom and Mrs Juli.

I sat at the edge of the bed and mom came to me.

"How are you sweetie?"

She kissed my face and I held her hand

"I'm fine mom"

The three women exchanged looks between each other before they returned their trained looks to me.

"He's fine .

Her dove eyes opened and stared up at me "Good morning beautiful"Her cheeks turned bright pink as she looked down"M-morning"She whispered Getting up she ran a hand through her messy hair and I just stared at the scene.

I opened it and flipped to a slow and passionate song as I set it in front of me, taking a seat on the piano bench. I had found out num was a pianist and she composed her own tunes. I was so thankful to aunt for making me take piano classes. It made me feel closer to mum. I wish I knew her. I started to play a slow and sad tune depicting the way I felt I didn't know when tears started falling down my cheeks. I felt someone's presence close to me. I laid my head on his shoulder once he sat down next to me. Placing his hand on the other side of the keyboard we played the song in a duet and it brought more tears to my eyes as I couldn't hold it. He cupped my face in his hands"I'm sure she misses you too doll"Julius wiped my tears and kissed my eyes. I wiped my eyes sniffling. I hugged him and he wrapped his hands a

Guessing she would have gone to the kitchen for some water, I went there and I stopped when I saw shattered glass on the floor and an empty bottle of water on the table. My heart started racing as I stormed out of the kitchen yelling out Vera's name. I had this painful feeling that something was terribly wrongMy yelling brought everyone back in to the house"What's wrong Julius?

Their biggest mistake was forgetting me and forgetting I'm a force to be reckon with.
