After 3 months, it's now summer!! Haha!! The best part of my life is this. But my feelings for her never die. Actually I have a surprise for her. And actually I want this to be the fruit of my hard work. I'm here at a KFC stall, working to fulfil my wants. My mother and father know this but when they ask me why do I need to do this, I never answer them.

Actually my time here is done. I am day shift, that's why I'm going home at night. And as I was going to our home, I'm going to say to you my plan. Steff told me that after she breaks with her ex, she lost everything, family, friends, and her scholarship. She lost it, that's why this school year, she will not entering U.P. again. That's what my surprise is. I will be the one who will pay the tuition fee of Steff. In that way, I help her and I will also see her. That's what my plan is. Here am I at our home.

"Hi Mom, hi Dad" I greeted them. But dad's crossed arms make me suspicious.

"Mom, Dad, what's wrong?" I asked.

"Darryl, I know changes are never been bad. But I need to ask you something. Why?? Why son?" My dad said.

"Darryl, we can give anything to you, everything you want, every lust you want. You didn't need to do this." My mom Said

"No Mom, Dad, I need to do this." I shortly said.

"But why?"They asked.

"Because first of all, I want to be independent. Independent so that one day, I can live by my own. I can be proud to myself, proud that I can live even without in my side of my parents." I explained. They looked at each other and said.

"But sweetie, you still have a long time to explore it."My mom said.

"Everything I'm doing today is not for me." I said

"Then for who?" My mom asked me again.

"Then whatever you're doing is a big waste of time. Quit on your job and focus for the next school year." My dad said. He was about to walk out when I continued what I am saying.

"The next reason is *sigh* I want to help someone..."

He looked at me and said "Who's I?"

"I only met her on the SpeeChoir competition, yet I was touched in her story. When her Ex left her, she lost everything, her friends, her scholarship, her family." They Both look at each other. "And she's the reason why I am changing, this was all dedicating for her, and I want her to feel graduated. That's why I'm doing this because I love her, and I want to help." They looked at me and said.

"Oh Sweetie, I'm sorry, we're sorry if we judged you before getting your side." My mom said.

"Ahh! I know what. We will help you pay her tuition fee! In that way You will help her, and also you will see her! Do you want that... Son?" My dad asked me. My eyes sparkled, is this really happening? My parents are helping me for my love.

"Sure Dad, Thanks." I hugged my dad as my eyes are now crying. I still can't believe in what is happening here. Don't worry Steff, you only need to wait for more than 3 months and you will see my face again. Just wait for me and I'll be there. Remember that our relationship, I don't want an ending with that.
