Changing star

There are dreams that is worth more than any amount of money. I can barely hear my father and his coach, the noise outside the room is unbearable. we need to beat ash! His coach shouted on top of his lungs. They thought I can't hear them because of my headphones but the truth is the music is not on. I can hear them faintly but I want to hear them. papa said, he is tired of underground MMA and he will stop he just needs to win this fight, to secure my tuition at West Town Music School. I want to know if that's true. If he'll really quit this time. The stakes are high for your opponent to know if they will find a way to make sure they beat you! I've been hearing the word paragon before. papa said that he would be accompanied by rich and powerful people. they like to go big money in underground fight mostly oligarch but they are more dangerous. Drew, I'm fainting! I can't fight the next fight, You know that! another, the price is one million now! Athena's tuition in westown is right! They both look at me, tensed, but i pretended i didn't hear them. I just smiled and mouthed what? As always, Papa just smiled at me. if I'm a great pretender, that's because I inherited from my father. He likes to pretend that everything is alright when in reality, it's all f****d up. I don't like that about him, but I love him for always thinking of us and not himself. I never heard the rest of them talk. Papa sat beside me and grabbed my headphones. "Athena child!" I felt that there Is something wrong but I know Papa will not tell it to me. "Finish the song you're making, okay? When I return to the fight, we will fulfill our dream. He always dreamed about being a great musician but the odds its not in favor of him. they were just poor so he couldn’t study at his most dream West Town Music School. even College he never finished. But that does not define him of how great father he is. I cannot ask for more. In any life that I would have, I will always choose him as my father. Athena's son. He took my hand and held it tightly. Promise me you will graduate in West Town. Fulfill my dream for you, a dream I never made for myself prove to everyone that music matters can you do that? I saw the tears in dad's eyes. I wiped it immediately and hugged him. Papa, I promise I will fulfill our dream. I will prove to them all that they were wrong they all underestimated your being a musician. I know he's tired, not just physically but emotionally. I know he really doesn't want this job because he likes to sing but he has no choice. it's just this job to give a lot of money for his family. For the dream of graduating in west town. But please promise me, you return here safely. I looked at him but he did not answer me. I felt something heavy on my chest. Please. Promise me? Promise, okay? He hugged me and kissed my forehead I love you, son. You'll always remember that, Okay? I love you too, Papa. He messed up my hair and squeezed my cheek something he always did when I was a kid he got up and he put on his safety gloves. I can't follow them either because I'm still a minor so I'm here in his training room to wait. When I come back, I will listen to the song you wrote, ah? I nodded and hugged him one last time. Finished the song I was writing. I tried to finish you before Papa's fight was over but I really couldn't. There's something bothering me and I don't what it is. I can finish that with him, Two is better than one, so I think it's better to ask him for the next lines. I waited an hour before the door finally opens, I excitedly run to it but then ... I saw my father, lying in a stretcher and is not moving. Papa? What the hell is happening? Coach what happen? Athena, we need to bring him to the hospital Come with me, What? I froze, confused on What's happening. The coach pulled me to the ambulance, everything happened so fast I stared at my father, his face was b****y and you almost didn't recognize him Papa? papa! Coach Drew hugged me, and I'm sorry I didn't protect your dad. He's been fighting since I was a kid, But he never got this damage is not moving and He looks really hurts. Once we got to the hospital, the doctor check him but ... I'm sorry, He did not make it. No he's not dead! He said, He will come back to him before he is dead Please! They have already covered Papa's head with the White cloth why are they doing it? He's not dead yet! He promised he would come back safe and alive! We're going to finish the song I'm making now! Dad I promise you! You said you would come back to me. I removed the cloth from his head again and hugged him. Papa naman e! Didn't you say you'll still listen to this song I'm making? My world seems to be falling apart, I don't want to believe what's happening, Dad can't be lost. Dad ... dad you promised. They took out Papa's body and I could do nothing but cry on the floor as if my chest was being pierced as if I couldn't breathe. That was the last time Dad and I talked. The many questions in my mind, Why is he still how that happened? How about me? How can I finish the song .. Papa, how can I finish it now that you're gone? There are dreams that we cannot get more matter how hard we try.
