298 READY TO RUMBLE!!!! (1/2)

Because you loved me... Sophia and Ann sang the song from their heart, for the people they love.

That was not enough; After Ann pointed to Jeff she put her hands together and made a heart shape before raising her hand for Jeff and everyone outside to see... Follow with her saying without a word, ” I LOVE YOU!” While looking straight into his soul...

*Clap! Clap! Clap*

*Clap! Clap Clap*

*Clap! Clap Clap*

*Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!*

Jeff, Edna, the music director, and his assistant were all applauding with their hands excitedly. Edna's face was full of tears; she couldn't stop it no matter how hard she strives.

Jeff's heart was about to explode from happiness; what his currently feeling is indescribable. Without realizing what was happening, his face becomes wet from his tearful eyes.

”How was it?” Ann took off the headphone she was wearing then asked through the microphone with her gentle, bright voice.

The music director was unable to reply right away; he was still emotionally disordered and incapable of expressing a word. He raised his hand and signaled with a thumbs up to Sophia and Ann to let them know that all was flawless.

Sophia was still emotionally stirred; she stood there calmly for a while before she found her voice. ”That was...” She couldn't hold any longer and drew her daughter and embraces her as snug as she could.

”I'm sorry! *huh-huh-huh* I'm genuinely sorry for all the misery that I had caused you, I hope, I hope.., that you would find it in your heart to forgive me... Maybe not right now, but someday...someday, perhaps?”

Ann wasn't able to respond; she's not sure what precisely she's feeling at the moment. Only one thing she understands for sure; she doesn't despise her any longer.

Instead of responding in words, Ann hugged Sophia back as tight as she could. They stood there for a moment longer before they went out of the sound booth still embracing one another.

”We are ready!” Sophia and Ann said in agreement. They looked at each other and then, ”Hahaha!” ”Hahaha!”

It was all set, they would be singing 'Because you loved me, by Celine Dion' Everyone accepted without a doubt.

The night ultimately arrives, the performance hall wholly crowded to the maximum capacity. All one thousand seats occupied, while many more guests were standing, they didn't care one bit that they had no accommodation, standing was excellent as long as one could say they were there at the most prominent wedding pre-party.

Seating at the front was Ann's VIP guest. They flew from all over the world. They were the people that had been with her and Jeff from the beginning.

They were the people who had supported them to the end. [ The people mentioned above were the readers of this book. Yes! You, the readers! ]

The lights dimmed, then a voice was heard throughout the hall.

”Good evening ladies and gentlemen! I'm your MC for the night.” The voice loudly announces his entry.

A spotlight was turned on and pointed towards a man walking toward the middle of the stage. ”Are you all ready to have fun? Let's hear it!” He pointed the microphone towards the audience. ”Let me hear you! Are you ready?” He loudly shouted to the crowd.

”Yes!!!!”

”Yes!!!”

”We are ready!!!!”

The crowd was all loud and passionately shouted back.
