Second Chance In Another Life
"Home" EP 2
Seraphine (FL)
*storms into the house, rain dripping from her coat, hair plastered to her face*
Her parents glare at her immediately, voices sharp and cold.
Henry (FL Dad)
Where have you been? Do you think you can just come back whenever you want without telling anyone?! *shouts, fists clenched*
Andre (FL mom)
*Points at her accusingly* Do you think this is acceptable? Always doing whatever you want! Always bringing shame!
Seraphine (FL)
*opens her mouth to explain, but the words stick in her throat. She takes a deep breath, trying to stay calm*
Seraphine (FL)
(I came back… just to see him… is that a crime?)
Henry (FL Dad)
*steps closer, face red with anger* And don’t you dare talk back! You are lucky I even let you into this house!
Her words finally break free, trembling but fierce.
Seraphine (FL)
I … I had to come! I couldn’t—
Henry (FL Dad)
*swings, and a sharp slap lands across her cheek*
The sting burns, tears threatening to spill.
Seraphine (FL)
Stumbles back, clutching her face, stunned more by disbelief than the pain.
(I… he… I… just hate… this )
Andre (FL mom)
*Voice rises over hers* You’re worthless! Look at your brother, so talented , he will officially take the company leadership next month. And you!? Nothing you do will ever make up for your uselessness!
Seraphine (FL)
*shakes her head, tears streaming now, fury and hurt mixing together*
Seraphine (FL)
*Grabs her coat and umbrella without looking back and storms out of the house, ignoring the shouts and protests behind her*
(I don’t belong here… I never did…)
Seraphine (FL)
*jumps into the car, rain still pelting the roof, fingers gripping the steering wheel tightly*
Seraphine (FL)
Everything I do is a mistake in your eyes.
Seraphine (FL)
Maybe my existence is also a mistake...
The car slides on the wet road. Screeching tires, a loud crash.
And everything goes black.
？？？
*opens her eyes, blinking at the sunlight streaming through huge windows*
