The Secrets Hidden In The Scars: Chapter 5

Hey, everybody! Hope you're all having a nice day. I've just updated my book "The Secrets Hidden In The Scars" with Chapter 5. Honestly, I don't know what to say about this chapter. So... I will not comment on anything about it...

Anyway, I would be madly happy if you liked this book, added it to your library and told me what you think of the storyline and the characters' actions. I hope you would't lose your interest for my book and would read it until the very end. My English is not perfect, but I'm doing my best to make my texts more or less readable. Play the song One Direction — Spaces, lyrics of which were originally used for the chapter name and go to read it.

And here's a little snippet:

“But why do you think he’s guilty? Call at least one more reason except for your hate for Peter, because of which you blame him for the band’s breakup.”

“You do know it well, Anna. I’ve said many times that Rose refuses to work and drinks alcohol when we need to work on songs. And now I lost my patience. I’m not going to close my eyes to what he’s doing. And it’s very hurt for me that he’s betraying us and behaving so disgustingly.” Daniel glances at the window and exhales quietly. “I don’t get… There was quite a normal, adequate guy. But then he turned into some egoistic idiot.”

“There are always reasons why a person acts in one or another way.”

“I didn’t think money and fame could change him so much. When he heard the amount of money that he would get for recording one album while signing the contract, I guess he got shocked and happy that his financial problems would be solved.”

“If Peter does it, he has a reason to do it,” Anna notices thoughtfully and takes a sip from her glass. “The problem that would explain his behavior.”

“He? Problems?” Daniel wonders, moving his widely open eyes to Anna, and laughs shyly. “Damn, Anna, don’t make me laugh! It just can’t be true!”

“Why? Peter doesn’t look as horrible and egoistic as you want to make him!”

“No, you must be kidding. I’ve known that guy for many years and always been sure he has no problems. He’s always been funny. Too funny sometimes. Rose has never complained about problems. There hasn’t been a day when he is depressed or a little sad. Peter had a good mood and never showed that irresponsibility and aggression.”

Anna thinks a little and frowns slightly.

“You know, Daniel, sometimes people say just because a person laughs too much and looks happy outside doesn’t mean he or she feels like this inside,” Anna says thoughtfully, putting a finger on her lip. “It's something like a protective reaction when you don’t wanna show your emotions and tell about your problems. Of course, it's possible to say not about all the people, but I think Peter is a type of these people.”

“Do you think he has serious problems that provoked that reaction?” Daniel frowns slightly.

“I’m assuming,” Anna shrugs slightly. “Have you ever thought he might have problems?”

“Honestly, no,” Daniel confesses thoughtfully, running a hand through his hair. “And I wasn’t interested in it and never asked him if he had problems.”

“But even if he has the problems, it doesn't mean he'd share them with someone.”

Wishing you a good day/night!

Love, Estrella Rose.
