Your POV

Hey there, nice to meet you guys. My name is (Y/N) (L/N), and I am a drummer. Well, not much of one, but I am learning as much as I can. For as long as I can remember, I've always wanted to play the drums. My mom was kind enough to give me my own drum set, but my dad was against it.

He would say something along the lines of... "Why are you wasting your time on something like that? You should be spending your time something important like school."

My dad has high expectations of me. But my mom doesn't. She always believed that I can do anything I want to do if I put my mom to it. And because of that, I continued playing the drums. But I can't play them in front of my dad, otherwise he is going to assume that I am wasting my time.

One day when I was coming home from school, I began to wonder if my dad is going to be home or not. Some days he works from home, and other days he isn't. And if he is home, then my chances of being able to play the drums are pretty slim. Once I got home, it was really quiet. I guess that means that my dad isn't home yet.

"Looks like I'll get a chance to play the drums after all." I said to myself as I went to my bedroom, which is where my drum set is.

Moments later...

Location - (L/N) Residence, (Y/N)'s Room

I arrived at my bedroom where I would find my drum set near my window. I know I should probably do something else like doing my homework, but in anime, doing other things is more important than homework.

I got my drum set together and I closed my eyes, pretending I was playing in front of an audience. Once I was able to imagine it, I began to play it. I was in the zone, and despite my lack of experience, I felt like I was getting better. However...

"Having fun, are we?"

I looked up to see my father by my bedroom, and I got an uneasy feeling in my stomach. My father is a very stern man.

"Well... umm..."

"Last I check, you were suppose to do your homework when you got home from school, and not playing the drums." He said with a cold look.

"I mean, I was going to do it, it's just..."

"Just what?"

"I just needed to play the drums so I can calm my mind after a long day of school." I said.

I can tell that my father didn't look convinced by my reason, and that made me even more nervous.

"I don't know how playing the drums is going to help with that, but you need to get rid of that drum set and focus on your studies." He said sternly. "You need to get good grades if I expect you to take over the company one day."

"But dad, I've told you a million times that I don't want to be the CEO of your company." I said.

My father is the CEO of a large financial company in town. It's been passed down by his father and his father. His goal in life to keep that tradition going by passing down the company to me after I graduate college. However, my dad can't tell that I have my own goal in life.

"Oh please, if you don't want to be the CEO of the company, then what do you want to be?" He asked.

"I don't know yet... but I want to be able to find that dream with my drums." I said as I placed my hand on it.

My father let out a deep sigh.

"I don't know where I have gone wrong in raising you, but let me make this clear." He said coldly. "Someone like you only has one purpose in life, and that is to take over the family company."
