Riley was pacing back and forth waiting for Lucas to come back from his mystery trip.
"maybe he wont come back" farkle said
Suddenly the television turned on, Riley looked over to see Smackle with the remote.
"Look at this" Smackle said. Riley looked back at the television and saw Maya. On. Stage.
"It's not simple to say. That most days I don't recognize me. These shoes and this apron that place and it's patrons are taking more than I gave them" Maya sung to a small audience at Chubbys
"Thats-"
"My Peaches" Riley cut Farkle off
"It's not easy to know. I'm not anything like I used to be, although it's true I was never attentions sweet centre I still remember that girl" Maya swayed her head to the time of the music.
Riley couldn't take her eyes off the screen she didn't even notice Farkle placed a hand on her shoulder
"She's imperfect. But she's tries. She is good, but she lies. She is hard on herself. She is broken and won't ask for help" Riley suddenly realised this was more than Maya singing a song from a musical
Maya was singing about herself.
"She is messy, but she's kind. She is lonely most of the time she is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie. She is gone but she used to be mine"
Riley felt a tear fall down her check she quickly whipped it away
"And it's not what I asked for. Sometimes life, just slips in through the back door and carves out a person. And makes you believe it's all true. But now I got you"
"Lucas.." Riley mumbled
"Your not what I asked for if I'm honest i know I would give it all back for a chance to start over. And re write an ending or two for that girl that i knew"
"What about Lucas" Farkle asked
"Who was reckless just enough. Who gets hurt but who learns how to tough it up and she's brusied and gets used by a man who can love"
"Her father" Riley whispered
It occurred to Farkle that Riley was talking about who Maya was singing about
"And then she'll get and be scared of the life that's inside her getting stronger each day till it finally reminds her to fight just a little. To bring back the fire in her eyes"
"Herself" Riley muttered
"That's been gone but used to be mine
Oh used to be mine
She is messy. But she's kind she is lonely most of the time she is All of this mixed up and backed in a beautiful pie"
"She is gone but she used to mine"
