This is a filler chapter. Apologies for the short chapter.

After that surprise hospital performance, Mother and Father were more strict and stern with me. They had given me the cold shoulder.
In school, I cherished my time with everyone in Muse. I put in my heart and soul for every single practice and I played the piano in my free time. I hade compised many new songs.
That would be my gift to Muse...
Tension hung high in the air in every practice session. Sadness seemed to be a raincloud that followed me around perpetually.
I counted the days.
Two weeks. (Fourteen days)
Thirteen days.
Twelve.
Eleven.
With each passing day, the layer of melancholy became heavier and heavier.
Ten.
Nine.
Nine stood for Muse. The number of members it had. The memories. The songs. The thrill of performing.
They would all be gone.
Eight.
The number of members Muse would have after I quitted music. Pain bit into me like the jaws of a vice and did not let go.
Seven days. (One week)
That was when the miracle happened...the formation of the key to unlock Mother's heart.
