My Way To You 140 Speechless Part 1

Mrs. Dabney handed her a piece of paper as she gave her a pleading look. "Can you sing?" She asked. Ariana looked at the pitiful girl, she saw how hard the poor girl cried and made up her mind. She looked at Mrs. Dabney and gave her a rea.s.suring nod. "It's been a couple of years but yes I can." She answered. "Thank goodness! Phillipa you can go rest." Mrs. Dabney said as she turned back to a fair skinned girl. Her bright orange eyes shown with relief. She quickly nodded her head and ran off. "You're an opening act, so don't worry too much." Mrs. Dabney said with excitement but she quickly felt worry when she saw that Ariana had started to cry.

"Oh no! Are you okay?!" She shouted. Ariana brought the paper to her chest and looked at Mrs. Dabney with a tear streaked, smiling face. "I will do my best." Ariana replied with conviction.

Ariana took a couple of deep breaths as she placed a hand overtop of her heart. 'You'll be fine.' Vasu said as he placed a small kiss on Ariana's cheek. 'A charm to help you calm down.' He said as he moved away. "Thank you." Ariana said with a small smile as she gently touched the kissed area. Vasu nodded his head then jumped away. As Vasu left her she instantly thought back how she changed her plans.

She closed her eyes and thought back to the last time she heard this song. She had just turned 18 years old and she wanted to see the movie so badly. So she snuck out to watch it. The last time she saw the movie was when she was incredibly young and she had gone to see it with someone special. Her parents were always busy back then and this person was her better half for so long but after the first kidnapping, she felt so lost, it felt like part of her soul was ripped away from her. So when the announcement for the remake of the movie, her parents were against her seeing it.

After she watched it, she locked herself in her room for a solid week. All she did was cry and sang this song over and over again, until she memorized the whole thing. It was worse when she saw Fr*zen, so she knew why her parents said no. She later on used this song as her mantra, she got through college and got into her dream job. It meant so much to her and was surprised to see it in this world. "I can't make a mess of this song." She whispered to herself. Ariana opened her eyes, completely determined to do the song justice.

"Thank you everyone for coming to the celebration. Another year of first years finishing their first week. Mentors you were all amazing and I am so proud of all of you." Mrs. Dabney said and the crowd exploded into cheers. "That's what I want to hear! Now let's start of the party with the opening act." Mrs. Dabney announced. Ariana took another deep breath and walked out from behind the curtain. She felt confident when she stepped out into the light and looked at everyone.

Instantly people started to get upset and voiced their opinions indiscriminately.

"I thought Phillipa was supposed to sing!"

"I don't want to listen to her!"

"Boo! Get off the stage!"

"Boo!"

"Spotlight hogger!"

"Someone get food to throw at her!"

"Oye! We came to get us a good cup of brew! Not to listen to a bunch of crybabies!" A familiar voice shouted out. Ariana turned and instantly brightened up. The bush folk were standing by the refreshments table. "Go on sweetheart, if you sing as well as making a brew then I'd say sing." Murray said as he toasted her with a cup of hot coffee while the others cheered loudly.

Ariana bowed deeply, giving her thanks to the bush folk. She then straightened up her back and moved to the center of the stage. She gave a bright smile to the audience as she waited for the first note to be played. After a few moment went by and nothing started, the audience started to whisper and snicker. She looked over to the musicians, to her horror the students refused to play. "If it's not Phillipa I won't play." A young lady said as she got up from the piano and walked off the stage.

Soon after the others followed. Ariana paled and swallowed back saliva as she turned back to the crowd. Some started to laugh out loud as they watched. Ariana shut her eyes trying her best not to cry. The words of the song filled her head. She refused to give up and faced the crowd head on. She took a deep breath and opened her mouth.

"Here comes a wave meant to wash me away. A tide that is taking me under. Swallowing sand, left with nothing to say. My voice drowned out in the thunder... but I won't cry and I won't start to crumble whenever they try to shut me or cut me down." She started to sing when suddenly she heard the piano start to play. She looked over and felt her chest swell. It was Cayden he was accompanying her. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

"I won't be silenced, you can't keep me quiet, won't tremble when you try it, all I know is I won't go speechless." The violin started and she couldn't afford to look back, she was getting absorbed by the song and it felt wonderful, she did not want to break the trance. Soon the drums started, some girls started to squeal in high pitched voices but Ariana kept focused.

" 'Cause I'll breath when they try to suffocate me. Don't you underestimate me. 'Cause I know that I won't go speechless." She started to sing a little louder. Breeze rushed up and blew a gust of wind around her, picking up her voice for all to hear. The audience at that point had gone silent.
