Song-Frozen: let it go

It was a week later, Friday at about five in the evening and the wedding was in three months. It seemed like just yesterday to Bea when Lyla and her dad popped the big news. Even though she still wasn't happy about being related to Cody, she'd learned to accept her dad and Lyla's marriage. 

It took her a while but she cared about her dad's happiness the most. Since the wedding was kind of near, Bea was with her dad at the Parker's and her dad and Lyla where busy planning the wedding. And so far, it was going terrible. 

Her dad and Lyla didn't seem to want to agree on anything. And since they couldn't agree on anything, they had driven both her and Cody into their wedding planning. Tom wanted a normal wedding that wasn't so big and that didn't have a wedding planner helping them out. But Lyla wanted a huge elegant and sophisticated wedding that had a wedding planner helping out.


"What do you guys think?" Lyla asked in the living room staring at Bea and Cody who were sitting at the couch opposite to where Tom and her where. She was holding a note book and a pen in her hands. "A normal wedding with no wedding planner or a huge elegant wedding with a wedding planner?"


"I think it's up to you guys." Bea said


"Yah. Me too." Cody said "And I also think we should give guys some space so you can decide." Cody stood up pulling Bea's hand


"Where are you going?" Lyla asked in a nerve racking Tone.


"Giving you guys some space." Bea said before standing up and walking out of the room with Cody


"What.... You can't" Lyla said shaking "You guys?" she screamed. But Bea and Cody where already gone. "Great." She said


"Well. Forget them. We don't really need them since this is our wedding." Tom said.



"So, what do you want to do?" Cody asked when him and Bea where out of the gate of his house. Cody froze after hearing a melody that was coming from a nearby furniture store. The neighbourhood he lived in had a lot of stores than houses. "Do you hear that?" he asked Bea


"What?" Bea shrugged.


"That song. I swear that this is like my favourite song." He said before he ran to the store the song was being played. A fat white short man was in the store by the counter. He opened the door and asked the man to turn up the volume. The man looked bewildered. But after a few seconds, he went to the DVD player and turned up the volume. "Thanks." He said


"What are you doing?" Bea asked Cody


Cody didn't reply. Instead, he went to flat surface that was on side of the road next to the store and started dancing to the music. Bea almost tried to stop him. Who dances in the middle of the street? He was a pretty good dancer. 

So the embarrassing feeling just faded away. Bea giggled. He was totally making a fool out himself. Everyone around stopped and looked at Cody dancing. By the looks on their faces, they were impressed. The song ended and Cody stopped dancing. The few people that had been watching clapped and Cody bowed. The people then parted.
