I kept crying until the boys stoppes hitting on the door. They yelled at Cody asking what happened.

I never cry, which was I this was so rare. The last time I cried like this, was when Lucy was diagnosed. I guess, I just keep everything bottled up till I just break.

Once all the whispers were gone, I decided to have a High School Musical moment. And sing my problems away.

"Im not a perfect person.

theres many things I wish I didnt do. But I continue learning. I never meant to do those things to you. And So i have to say before I go. That I just want you to know. I founs a reason for me to change who I used to be. A reason to start over new. And the reason is you."

The song I sang when my dad died.

My dad was a great singer. I have home videos of me and him putting on duets with each other. When I was 10. I was the happiest person ever. Lucy just turned 3.

We were the happiest family. Till that night.

I can still remember my moms hand shaking as she talked to the doctor on the other side of the phone. Every word. Every tear that fell. I knew something was wrong. I picked up the phone in the living room to listen on their conversation.

"...And she was killed on impact. Your husband, Michael, suffered severe wounds to the head area and his spine. There is a chance he could live, but if he does, he will be disabled. I will call you if anythihg turns out, ma'am. Im sorry."

My mother said thank you and goodbye as she called Lucy and I to the dining room. I knew what was happening but my mother hadnt know that. I held Lucys hand and just let my mom say those 4 words I dread to this day.

"Dad Might Pass Away.."

During my flashback, my tears had stoppes Remembering I was strong enough to handle years in sorrow. I can go 45 minutes. I openes the door and all the boys were sitting there. They all looked at me and ai just walked past all of them, and straight to the song booth.

Change of plans.

I told them Id rather not have the guys in during my rehearsals, that Id rather it be a surprise. And they understood.

****

The last few days have been hard, I dont think Ive ever had to think of my past that much. I pushed it behind me for a reason. But I was done talking about it. For the rest of the week, I ignored every text message or phone call unless it was my mom. I didn't talk to anyone unless to order food.

I stayed up late on my laptop and slept in every morning since I was now the last girl on schedules for rehearsals. Today the song booth guy, Bill, said I could bring my mom and Lucy.

It took some time, but I thought, no one would be there. And it was my last rehearsal. Why not.

I got ready at 7:30 to be there at 9. The car showed up and my mom and Lucy were already inside. We drove the 10 minutes to the studio.

I showed Lucy and my mom arouns and showed them to Bill.

"I can't believe you get to perform on here! Id give anything to." Lucy told me as she ran on stage.

Well, we must give the princess exactly what she wants. I ran backstage, grabbed 3 tiaras that were in around the dressing rooms and some feathery boas. I ran up to the song booth and asked Bill for 3 head mics, which he happily gave me.

I ran back to the stage where my little sister was making my mother dance.

"Here! Put these on!" I tossed the tiaras and boas at them and once they did, I handed them the mics. They looked at me quizzicaly. Our song came on.

I started singing. And my mom and Lucy knew exactly what we were doing.

Until 7 idiots came walking in thru the back of the arena.
