(The riverbank, Sunday afternoon)
"That's it, I've had quite enough of this!" I exclaim to the empty office, leaning on my broom. Lucien still won't tell me what exactly happened, only that he really lost his temper and destroyed everything looking for the missing contract.
I almost buy it.... almost. It would explain everything being destroyed, but not the burned door and wall. He wouldn't meet my eye when I asked, and after a few minutes of uncomfortable silence, I sent him on his way to go see Miao. And honestly, once Lucien was gone, the cleanup went faster. He'll need to sand down the wall and ceiling though, and probably a new door would be in order.
With a small sigh, I give up and leave the office. The sky is grey and overcast, like it can't decide if it's going to rain or not. With no destination in mind, I turn to the right and head down to the river bank. Finding a grassy enough spot, I sit down and just unwind, tilting my face to the breeze and letting to ruffle my hair while I listen to the water flowing by. I inhale deeply, and find myself relaxed enough to sing.
"If it were love I would give that love every second I have....
and I do.
Did I know where he'd lead me to?
Did I plan, doing all all of this, for the love of a man?
Well I let it happen anyhow, and what I'm feeling now,
has no easy explination, reason plays no part....
Heaven help my heart!
I love him too much....
What if he saw my whole exsistance, turning around a word, a smile...
a touch....?"
I can help but smile a bit ruefully at that. Life IS a musical, after all.
