Violet's pov

This is just so unreal.

I never thought that me, or my band could ever reach a good position.

Let alone the finals.

I mean, we are good, but there are so many others who are far better than us. But fortunately, people seem to like us, and have always supported us , and voted for us.

And now we are just 1 step far from our goal. The main aim. The record deal. Coming this far, I can easily say, that we all have one thing in common. Our passion for singing.

Why and how we came here, doesn't matter. Because, now we are in it together.

Jesy was sitting next to me. Reading a book. Suddenly , I think, she had a thought.

" hey vi?"

" Hm? "

" have you ever seen diana's parents? Like ever seen or talked to them before?"

That made me wonder.

" Hm. No. I have never even seen them. We all have seen each other's parents, because I think, we all live here. I have seen her aunt, but no. No parents. "

She stood up then.

" then let's talk to her, and ask."

I nodded , and we both went to her room. We were just about to knock when we heard her voice inside.

" - leave the show? I just can't do that to the others! "

At that we both exchanged worried glances, but continued to listen.

"See , mum , you might be my mother, but this is some serious bull shit! I just can't leave the X factor, just because your reputation is bigger than my dream! You know what - "

Then she started speaking in a different language, which we think is indian, her mother tongue. Taking that as our cue to enter, we did. Her back was towards us, and also that she was now on the shouting voice, she didn't hear or see us coming.

"Mum, do what you want to do. But, let me get this clear, I AM NOT GOING TO LEAVE FOR YOUR STUPID REASONS!"

Then we heard the click of her call ending. And we straightened up.

" Uh, di? "

At that she slowly turned towards us.

We gasped at the sight. She was looking , like a ghost. To say the least. She had dark bags under her eyes, and looked really pale. It also looked like she didn't eat for some time.

" hey guys."

Her tone was also like that, dead.

" Who was that on the phone?" Said jesy, straight going to the main part.

Di looked a little shocked, but still answered,

" My mom."

" why?" Came my voice next.

She sighed.

" she wants me to quit the X factor and leave for India. "

There was a dead silence that followed her words.

" So, you are going then?" Jesy said.

Diana looked baffled to say the least.

" No, obviously not!"

Me and jesy , both gave out a sigh of relief.

" But, what I don't understand is ; why? Why is your mother asking this of you?" Jesy said.

" My mum says, or assumes already, that we won't win. So, I'm quoting her words now,' better come back before your heart breaks'. She doesn't belive that we can win, nor does she believe tha we can have a scope in singing. "

Judging from jesy's face, I could tell she was furious about it. And I'm pretty sure, mine was also the same face expression, upon hearing her mum's words.

The next things happened so fast, that I just blinked , and almost five things happened at once ; Jess stormed over to di, snatched her phone, came over to me, caught my wrist and went to the nearest bathroom and locked the door.

Diana soon came out of her shock, and came to the bathroom, banging the door to get us out.

" shut up! " jess said.

I think, diana understood the situation, so she gave up.

Jess quickly called the last number on her logs, hoping whoever it was , was diana's mother.

Putting it on speaker, we held our breaths and listened.

"Hello? Diya? Have you finally made the decision? "

hearing a woman's voice , similar to that of di's,  we gave a sigh of relief.

" Hello?  This is jesy. Diya's friend. May I ask what decision was it that you were troubling my best friend so much,  that she is barely able to hold it?" Jess said, rudely too.

" excuse me? Who are you to say that? I am her mother. And whatever I say, she has to obey it. And about that decision, she is soon expected to be home, tell her that. Either she comes willingly, or we take her forcefully."

This time, it was my turn.

" and who are you to say that? You may be her mother, but judging from your attitude, you were ever her mum. Just a controlling person. That you were. "

" see. I have no time to explain this all to you. Just know that this small singing fling is not going to work for you all. Instead of achieving fame, you are only going to get shame. Yes. That's right. You are all going to be ridiculed,  and for that only matter, I am calling her back. If in the next ten years, she still tries this singing, she won't ever get married. I don't want to ruin her future because if this fling. "

" marriage? Is that all about it? You care just for her to be married and nothing else? Well news flash, there are more things to life than just marriage.  Get that in your head you idiot!-"

Jess couldn't complete her rant , as I had cut the connection before she could do something she would regret later.

Now that we understood diana's reasons and her sickness, we just went up to her and hugged her ; telling her that we are with her, no matter what.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - I am an Indian,  but what ever was written before is solely fiction and for leading the storyline. So don't judge.
