A Moment in Destiny

“Up to you!” William got a cigarette for himself and passed one to Liam as well.

Liam called Leon out of the room to ask, “Hey, bro. Cheer up!”

Leon looked at Liam quietly and gave a bitter smile with nothing to say.

Liam slapped on Leon’s shoulder, “Leon, are you ok? Love is so mysterious to always hurt humans.”

William also asked, “Leon, what do you think?”

“I am totally blank in my mind.” Leon said. He might be crazy; he believed he was crazy. He kept missing Susan much for years; even if he knew it was impossible to get her, he could not help missing her.

Leon encouraged himself, “Let’s go singing. I’m sorry to ruin your happiness.”

In the KTV, the noisy metal music was always heard everywhere. Under the dark light in such decadent and blurred atmosphere of their room, Celia and Ashely concentrated on singing a love song; one sang as the male singer while the other one sang as the female one.

Ashely had a sweet voice but Celia got some of wildness in her voice.

Sherry sat quietly on sofa to listen to their singing.

Liam asked her with care, “Sherry, why not sing a song?”

Ashely and Celia pretended to be unhappy with Liam’s special care to Sherry.

Sherry shook her head to say, “I am not good at it.”

Celia passed the microphone to Sherry, “Why not? Just have a try!”

Sherry had a look at William by instinct; he was also watching her with great fondness. Sherry was shy so that her face turned to red.

Liam toasted a wine to Leon and said to Sherry, “Get start! I am listening. Or you have to finish the wine.”

Sherry tried to say, “But…”

Celia suggested, “Please. I know you do well in singing. You can sing your daddy’s favorite song. That is an old song named, oh, Flowers on the sea. You have sung it in the school and many boys were obsessed with you for it.”

Sherry was not glad to hear it. In her high school time, she did sing the song because her daddy loved it too much.

Obsessed many boys? William was annoyed and got his eyes narrowed; he would love to hear it. Sherry saw William have a frown and had to agree, “Ok. I will try. Please excuse me if it’s not good.”

She had not sung any song since her daddy passed away.

“You are so tender to give me a dream. Lying in your arms is just like in the up-and-down waves of the sea. You are so passionate to swing my dream. Lying on your body is just like sticky to the mysterious spray of the sea. My dream comes true; when turning around, just see the world is covered by the huge waves; only grudge is left with water patterns. I wish we could keep company with each other forever in another life. You are so special to ruin my dream. The whole of my life is like a bubble on water, bright but ends soon. My dream comes true; when turning around, just see the world is covered by the huge waves; only grudge is left with water patterns. I wish…”

Sherry was singing with great emotion. Her daddy loved the song too much, so did her; they especially loved the lyrics in which told something about the complicated and uninterpreted affection.

Sherry’s voice was soft and beautiful enough to stun the audience. William concentrated on her singing.

Everyone kept silent when she finished the song.
