The next day I've been alone in the class room, trying to play the piano, but once again as soon as I was there I just couldn't do it.
I don't know why... I just couldn't...
- Why... Is this happening... - I stuttered - Why can't I play?
My hands were shaking and I didn't know what to do... I really didn't.
And while I was literally panicking suddenly I felt a hand on top of mine.
- Huh?
As I looked up I saw Rodrigo standing behind me with his serious look on his face, but not that serious this time.
- Rodrigo!
- Sorry... Didn't mean to scare you - he replied.
- No, you didn't...
He now sat down beside me.
- Maybe you don't believe me... But I understand you more than anyone...
I didn't say anything. I was way too curious to cut him off with anything at all.
- I was a weak child and my father was a really stern person... I was scared to eat near him... I don't know why... I just was - he sighed then suddenly he began to smile - Our butler helped me... He could always make me forget everything and make me happy again... He also taught me to play the piano... And without him I wouldn't be here today...
- That's really cute... - I smiled.
- Try to play again - he said - Think about what you thought the first time you played... The joy and happiness you felt... And it'll work.
I was a little hesitant, but I did as he said and soon my hands began to be the same again, letting my play.
- It's working! - I gasped.
- Of course - Rodrigo replied.
- Thank you!
He smiled sightly and nodded and soon we continued playing together, having so much fun and joy.
----- TIME SKIP -----
- Thank you... I'm really greatful for your help... - I said while me and Rodrigo were standing at the lake together, watching the sun going down.
- I didn't do anything - he replied - It was all you...
- But without you I wouldn't have got through my fears! Thank you!
He smiled.
- It's nothing...
Something tells me that he wanted to say something more, but he didn't.
At times I really want to know what is he thinking about....
----- MEANWHILE -----
(No one's pov)
- So that's how it is, Rodri... But I'm not gonna let you have her that easily...
- Are you talking to yourself, Jinguji?
- What? Ramos?
The two man were standing in front of each other now.
- What are you doing spying on them? - Diego asked coldly from his classmate.
- And what if I do?
Diego sighed then shrugged.
- Whatever - he said then after looking at Clara and Rodrigo he was about to head off, but Ren called after him.
- You seem interested too, Ramosito - he said cheekily.
- I'm not.
- Yes, you are. Your eyes speak more than anything.
- Shut up!
- Arguing means yes!
Diego mumbled something under his breath before heading off.
- He is interested in some ways... But it doesn't matter though - Ren smirked - I'm gonna get her either way.
Then after some hesitation...
- Why am I still talking to myself? - he groaned then walked off too...
