âDonât worry,he will come back very soonâ Ashley said as we took a walk around the park.
âI have been calling him but his phone is switched offâ
âHe did that because he needs time to think,i mean his parents just found out that he has been studying Music for the past Four yearsâ
âHeâs really good, Ashley,i havr so much Faith in his dreamâ
âI know that,i just wish his parents also see thatâ
đ Alexanderâs P.o.vđ
I was at one of my friendâs place,his name is Bryan,he practically lives alone.
He has the same kind of parents i have, they are also never around for him.
He is aspiring to be a professional dancer, the only difference he and i have is that his own parent support his dream.
âHow did they find out?âhe asked me as we both sat on the stairs of his house with a drink in our hand.
âI was doing my last project for the semester,they saw the project handbookâ
âWhy are they forcing you?â
âI donât really know why,my mom used to love it when i sing but suddenly she changedâ
âYou know i think this stuff is partly my fault,i was the one who gave you the idea of deceiving them into thinking you were actually studying Engineeringâ
âDonât say that,you helped me when i needed a planâ
âSo how is she?â Bryan asked and i was confused.
âWho?â
âYour girlfriend?â
âHow did you knowâŠ
âCome on,your phone is literally filled with her picturesâ He said making me chuckle.
âSheâs not just my girlfriend, sheâs the woman i want to spend the rest of my life withâ
âDoes she support your dream?â
âMore than anyone, Sheâs like my museâ
âDonât worry, bro,we are going to get through thisâ

A week later.
đ Giannaâs P.o.vđ
I havenât spoken to Xander for a week and itâs killing me.
I donât know if heâs okay,am just so worried.
I decided to go to his house and try to convince his parents.
I knocked a few times until i heard a come in.
I opened the door and Xanderâs mom was sitting on the couch.
âWhat are you doing here?â She asked.
âMaâam,i just came here to talk, thatâs allâ
âI donât want toâŠ
âItâs about Xander, pleaseâ I said and she sighed.
âSit downâ She said and i sat down.
âHave you heard from him?â she asked
âNo,have you?â
âNo,i donât even expect him to talk to me,i have hurt him so muchâ
âHe once told me that there was a time you supported his career, what changed?â
âOh, Gianna, there are some questions that should be left unanswered, i love my son and I would support anything that he wants to beâ
âAlexander is a good singer and songwriter,you really have to see him sing, heâs amazing and whenhe plays the guitar or piano,you get lost in itâ
âTrust me,i know all of that,ever since he was little,he loved musicâ
âThen why are you forcing him to do what he doesnât want to do?â
âBecauseâŠ
âBecause we are his parents and he has to obey usâ Xanderâs father said as he walked towards us.
âLook, Gianna,i know you are his girlfriend or whatever but you have no right in this issueâ
âShe has all the right in the world,Dadâ A voice said,we turned around and it was Xander.
âXander!âi said and and hugged him.
âYou came backâ Xanderâs mom said smiling.
âSo you have finally decided to go by my rules?â
âNo,dad,i came back only because of Giannaâ
âThen you have no business in my house,get outâ
âPeter, please listen to himâ Xanderâs mom said.
âNO!â
âBefore i leave,i just wanted to let you know that no matter what am not going to give up on my dreamsâ
Xander dragged me along with him, outside his house.
He hugged me the minute we got outside.
âI have missed you so muchâ He said.
âWe are not even married yet and you have already started getting me so worriedâ I said making him chuckle.
âAm sorry,Babe,i just needed spaceâ
âSo are you leaving again?â
âNo,i will stay at your houseâ He said and i smiled at him.

âThanksâ
âAnd you are always welcome here, hunnieâ Giannaâs mom said smiling at me.
âThanks againâ
âOkay,am going to the office,so Gianna prepare something for Xanderâ
âOkay,momâGianna said as her mom walked away, Jamal also left.
Gianna kept staring at me so worriedly.
âI know what you are thinking..You are thinking about my relationship with my parentsâ
âYes, Xander, thatâs what am thinking,your dad obviously doesnât like me, Graduation is a few days away,am so worried about everything and am scared that this will threaten our relationshipâ
âIf they even dare to tear us apart,we will run awayâ
âRun away?â
âYeah,i canât afford to lose you, Gianna,If am going to be a famous singer, you are going to be by my side, I want you to bear my last name and to be the mother of my kidsâ
Tears were already rolling down her eyes,i used my thumb to wipe it off.
âI love you, Xander,you are the only man i will ever loveâ

âI wish i can go with youâ I said to Xander as he was dressing up.
âItâs okay,you have to submit your final poject today,you can always hear me sing anytimeâ
Xander is going for music practice while i have to go to college to submit my project.
An idea popped into my head.
âOkay, I will see you laterâ
âGood bye kiss?â
I kissed him,he pulled me closer and his hands went down to my a*s and squeezed it,i quickly pulled away.
âNot todayâ I said to him,he frowned making me giggle.
âBye,have funâ i said to him and walked away.
I have rush over to college to finish up so that i can carry out my plan.

I have been rehearsing for a long time and still thinking about my future with Gianna.
âXander,why donât you sing for us?â The music teacher,Miss Natalie said.
âOkayâ
I picked up my guitar and started to strum it.
âđ¶ When your legs donât walk like they used to before
And i canât sweep you off of your feet.
Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love?
Darling,i will be loving you till we are seventy.
And am thinking how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe just a touch of a hand
But me,i fall in love with you every single day
So honey,now,take me into your loving armsđ¶
I closed my eyes while singing,i was done singing and everyone clapped.
I opened my eyes and i saw my dad,my mom and Gianna.
âWhat..whatâŠ
âGianna brought us here,she said if we listened to you sing,it would change our mind, Honey,your voice is beautifulâ MY mom said and I looked over at Gianna who smiled at me.
My dad didnât say a word to me,he only stared at me.
âSorry to interrupt but Alex,over here has an amazing voice and the world needs to hear himâ Miss Natalie said.
âPeter, please,just reconsider your decisionâ My mom said.
There was a long slience.
âOkay,Fine,You can pursue your dream if being a singerâ My dad said and i was beyond shocked
âAre you really serious,Dad?â
âYesâ
