emotion on stage

voice is always touchingrdquo

ldquoJust one question okay Just one

God What is that noise

I canrsquot imagine how many paparazzo will

7

be waiting for me at the exit

This is not what I expecting I just want

YOU to know your decision is wrong

Yesterday you came to lift me up

As light as straw and brittle as a bird

Today I weigh less than a shadow on the wall

Just one more whisper of a voice unheard

Tomorrow leave the windows open

As fear grows please hold me in your arms

Wont you help me if you can to shake this

8

anger

I need your gentle hands to keep me calm

Now I am the

competitor in

one of the most

popular talent

shows in Taiwan that is Taiwanese Top

Singer Recently more and more people

noticed me because they said they were

touched by my voice

After the show every week receiving lots

9

of gifts from my fans and being

interviewed by journalists were common

and regular for me I got used to it

Tina the hostess of the show is the

person I deeply admired Actually she is

like my mother

Before the show started she reminded

me to take a deep breath not to be afraid

and do my best Also after the show

ended she gave me some advice about

the performances today

10

ldquoToday you performed toohellipyou know too

strongly it seemed you were pretending

Be calm and express your feeling as

much as you can next time but please in

an appropriate limitation Willy For me

yoursquore always the best competitorrdquo Tina

told me

But I wasnrsquot

I knew that was because I saw YOU

accidently I never thought I would meet

YOU again Everything you had done to

11

me suddenly came back to me YOU

never know how terrible my life has been

YOU donrsquot

YOU do not

-------------------------------------------------------

It is hard to explain how happy I am now

You were standing on the stage and

catching everyonersquos attention I know you

did it my dear Willy

Did you notice I was watching you Did

12

you recognize me Since ten years ago

have you ever thought of me Even one

time Have you

Perhaps there are 3 or 4 more wrinkles on

my face so maybe you donrsquot know who I

am

I donrsquot dare to ask you this question

because I already know your answerhelliphelliphellip

13

Chapiter2 Childhood

ldquoDad I promise Irsquoll be a successful man

taking care of Mom and youhelliphellip so please

we have to leave the hospital with your

recoveryrdquo I said as holding my father

hands

ldquoNohelliphellipWilly I beg for your forgiveness I

havenrsquot taken the responsibility of taking

care of you and your momrdquo said my

father

Suddenly my tears trickled down both of

14

my cheeks I didnrsquot understand He was

such a nice person and he worked late

almost everyday Whenever I saw him he

looked tired and sleepy

ldquoAll right itrsquos time to go home Willyrdquo said

my mother And it was the last time I saw

my father

Afterwards everything changed I was

sent to an orphanage but I was not an

orphan ldquoWhere was my mom Did she

abandon me alreadyrdquo I asked the clerk

there

15

She smiled at me and said ldquoDonrsquot worry

wersquoll take care of yourdquo instead of

answering my question

What happened to me Me me

mehelliphelliphelliphelliphellip

I hate my mom Very much

I started to rebel the women taking care of

me over

there since

I didnrsquot like

them too

They didnrsquot tell me the truth even though

16

each of them knew Everyone was my

enemy Where were my friends

Finally I accidently met York and Harry

They gave me a hand and shared their

story which was similar to mine From

then on we became essential for one

another Wherever we went we were

together

ldquoI donrsquot want to stay here any longer Just

think we have to be here until 20 It sucks

I want a life more interesting and exciting

I have a planhelliphellipIrsquom gonna open an ice

17

cream parlor If you two agree we can

leave tonightrdquo said York

ldquoButhellipwhat about moneyrdquo I asked

ldquoDonrsquot worry I will bring all my money It

will be enough By the way we can find

your motherrdquo

ldquoPlease donrsquot mention her Ok Irsquoll go with

you How about you Harryrdquo

ldquoOf course we are essential for one

anotherrdquo

ldquoYes We arerdquo York and I said

We left for another city and started our

18

new business The

name of our parlor was

called ldquoWHY ice creamrdquo

because WHY stands

for us three --- Willy

Harry and York

-------------------------------------------------------

I didnrsquot know how you have been

regarding me I justhellipI justhellipI had

something untold to inform you When

could I see you again I totally had no

idea What I wanted to say was that I did

19

this for some reasons Would you forgive

me Would you Whenever I saw Lisa I

thought of you What were you doing now

Did you have a better life now Did you

take good care of yourself I went to the

orphanage yesterday but they said you

were gone where did you leave for Why

did you leave The clerks there didnrsquot

treat you well Andhellipwere you safe now I

asked your aunt your teachershellipand none

of them saw you Where did you go No

matter what I would find you in the end

20

Sorry and I would give you a hand if

necessary Wait for me

21

Chapiter3 Relationship

After we have owned WHY ice cream for

four years Harry became a student of

interior design He discovered he had art

talent from designing and decorating our

ice cream parlor In order to become a

professional designer we collected all our

savings for him to study interior design

Recently I met a girl whose name was

Cherry Like fruit Cherry when she was

smiling my heart melted right away

22

Usually she came to our parlor every

afternoon

ldquoGood afternoon Miss which flavor would

you likerdquo

ldquoI donrsquot knowhelliphellipcould you choose one for

merdquo

ldquoSure no problem Ok here you are This

flavor is strawberryrdquo

This was the conversation the first time

we met each other Afterwards she came

everyday Little by little I knew more

about her She was a university student

23

nearby Freshman still Didnrsquot know too

much here I like to talk to her because no

matter what I said she was always

smiling

ldquoHow come you always choose strawberry

for merdquo she asked with curiosity

ldquoBecause you are sweet and fragile I

want to protect

yourdquo I answered

seriously

Both of us laughed

at the same time Not long after we

24

became girl and boy friends And of

course I knew much more about her She

loved playing the guitar she loved singing

her father was a teacher she had no

brothers or sisters and she loved me

ldquoHey Irsquom gonna practice my guitar with

my classmates wanna come with merdquo

Cherry asked

ldquoOhhelliphellipnohellipI donrsquot have any music talent

Itrsquos not for me I gotta gordquo

ldquoPleasehellipWilly I want your opinion about

something Next week is my year-end

25

evaluation I wanna do it well and perfect

pleasehelliprdquo

ldquoAll right all rightrdquo I replied unwillingly

She took a deep breath and said ldquoOk

now Ilsquom gonna sing lsquoLove Storyrsquo by Taylor

Swiftrdquo

We were both young when I

first saw you

I close my eyes

And the flashback starts

26

Im standing there

On a balcony of summer air

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

ldquoWell Cherry please stoprdquo I interrupted

ldquoWhatrdquo

ldquoI know I canrsquot give you any useful opinion

27

but what I wanna say is yoursquore not into this

songrdquo

ldquoWhat do you mean by thatrdquo

ldquoYou donrsquot know the meaning of the lyrics

do you When yoursquore singing I canrsquot feel

your emotionrdquo

ldquoEmotion emotionhelliphellipoh I see Irsquoll do it

better next time ok Letrsquos start againrdquo

However after singing the song several

times she was still confused I decided to

sing myself

28

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

That you were Romeo you were throwing

pebbles

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

And I was crying on the staircase

Begging you please dont go and I said

29

ldquoWilly how amazing You make me sad

by singingrdquo

ldquoSee I told you so Ok try it again

Cherryrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I never gave up looking for you HE

definitely helped me a lot and also asked

many people to find you Eventually we

found you

I knew you were falling in love with a girl

She was beautiful and elegant You were

quite lucky huh Recently you are

30

always practicing singing with her right

You have a talent for singing just like your

dad When we were at university he was

well-known because of his singing But

perhaps you didnrsquot notice that Maybe that

girl could help you further develop your

talent

31

Chapiter4 Thankful

One year later Cherry noticed an ad for a

singing competition in our community

ldquoYou should show your talent to the public

Willy you can do it I swearrdquo she said

ldquoWell I donrsquot know I donrsquot know if I can

sing well I havenrsquot got any training By the

way I donrsquot want to give up my businessrdquo

ldquoNo I didnrsquot ask you to give it up Therersquos

still York isnrsquot there Also I remember you

told me you wanted to open another one

32

right Itrsquos a great opportunity The grand

prize is a lot Why not try for itrdquo

Then because I couldnrsquot resist her

persuasion I took part in the competition

During the preparation she helped me a

lot and gave me plenty of suggestions I

could feel she really loved me Her

mid-term exam would be coming but she

never talked about the exam in front of me

She was happy to assist me to make my

dream come true I was so lucky she was

sohelliphellipperfect so kind so thoughtful

33

Therefore I didnrsquot want to let her down I

promised that I would do my best to win

the first prize

Cherry knew more about music and she

volunteered to be my keyboard player

ldquoWhich song would you like to sing for the

competitionrdquo she asked

ldquoOf course our first songmdashLove Storyrdquo

ldquoHello ehhelliphellipIrsquom Willy and this beautiful

girl is my keyboard player Well today

wersquore gonna sing Taylor Swiftrsquos Love

34

Story We hope you will enjoy itrdquo

Cause you were Romeo

I was a scarlet letter

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

But you were everything to me

I was begging you please dont go

And I said

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone

Ill be waiting all theres left to do is run

Youll be the prince and Ill be the princess

35

Its a love story baby just say yes

Romeo save me theyre trying to tell me how

to feel

This love is difficult but its real

Dont be afraid well make it out of this mess

Its a love story baby just say yes

ldquoThis song is also for my lovely Cherry

the luckiest thing in my life is I met her Itrsquos

enough for me the rest of life staying with

her come here honeyrdquo I said trying to

36

give her a hug

The audience was whistling and we were

smiling at each other But Unfortunately I

didnrsquot win anything from competition

Some people said that it was because the

judges didnrsquot like the competitors talking

too much on stage about something

useless and unnecessary

Luckily I didnrsquot know if it was because of

my lucky star Cherry or not Someone

loved my voice very much and decided to

give her savings about NT$100000

37

I wondered who she was But that

benefactor didnrsquot want me to know

ldquoQuite strange huhrdquo I said

ldquoMaybe your voice touched her reached

the deepest part of her soul that nobody

touched before No matter what

congratulations Willy you did a great

jobrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I saw you on stage which was quite

touching I never imagined you would be

on stage and I would be the audience I

38

could tell you

loved your girl

very much

You looked like your father so muchhelliphellip

39

Chapiter5 Fact

I was really grateful for Cherry and the

nameless person They let me realize in

this world someone admired me Thatrsquos

why I was on the stage of Taiwanese top

singer Another reason was that I wanted

my mom to be regretful that she had

abandoned me before I wanted to show

her I was successful and no matter what

she said to me I wouldnrsquot admit she was

my mom

However three days later while I entered

40

the building of the competition I saw an

old woman lying on the floor in front of the

building

Suddenly I recognized that she was my

mom The one who I missed so much and

there was a letter in her hand

My dear Willy

I know you will never forgive me but there is

something I want to explain to you because

tomorrow my new husband and I will immigrate to

Canada This is the last time I will see your

performance The reason why I left you when you

41

were 15 is that your father was sick and the only

way to get the money for the operation was to

borrow from my manager I knew he liked me but

still I did it He said I didnrsquot have to pay him back

The only requirement was I had to stay with him

and take care of his daughter Linda and he

promised he would give you as much money as he

possibly could Like the competition in your

community the sponsor was him I knew it was my

fault to leave you but I had no more options Willy

I totally regret to do this action so since several

years ago I always followed you I tried to protect

42

you and knew what are you doing know Forgive

mom okay

This is my phone number Whenever you miss me

call me right away 0912345678

Always loving you

mom

tomorrow my new husband and I will immigrate to

Canada This is the last time I will see your

performance The reason why I left you when you

41

were 15 is that your father was sick and the only

way to get the money for the operation was to

borrow from my manager I knew he liked me but

still I did it He said I didnrsquot have to pay him back

The only requirement was I had to stay with him

and take care of his daughter Linda and he

promised he would give you as much money as he

possibly could Like the competition in your

community the sponsor was him I knew it was my

fault to leave you but I had no more options Willy

I totally regret to do this action so since several

years ago I always followed you I tried to protect

42

you and knew what are you doing know Forgive

mom okay

This is my phone number Whenever you miss me

call me right away 0912345678

Always loving you

mom

emotion on stage

voice is always touchingrdquo

ldquoJust one question okay Just one

God What is that noise

I canrsquot imagine how many paparazzo will

7

be waiting for me at the exit

This is not what I expecting I just want

YOU to know your decision is wrong

Yesterday you came to lift me up

As light as straw and brittle as a bird

Today I weigh less than a shadow on the wall

Just one more whisper of a voice unheard

Tomorrow leave the windows open

As fear grows please hold me in your arms

Wont you help me if you can to shake this

8

anger

I need your gentle hands to keep me calm

Now I am the

competitor in

one of the most

popular talent

shows in Taiwan that is Taiwanese Top

Singer Recently more and more people

noticed me because they said they were

touched by my voice

After the show every week receiving lots

9

of gifts from my fans and being

interviewed by journalists were common

and regular for me I got used to it

Tina the hostess of the show is the

person I deeply admired Actually she is

like my mother

Before the show started she reminded

me to take a deep breath not to be afraid

and do my best Also after the show

ended she gave me some advice about

the performances today

10

ldquoToday you performed toohellipyou know too

strongly it seemed you were pretending

Be calm and express your feeling as

much as you can next time but please in

an appropriate limitation Willy For me

yoursquore always the best competitorrdquo Tina

told me

But I wasnrsquot

I knew that was because I saw YOU

accidently I never thought I would meet

YOU again Everything you had done to

11

me suddenly came back to me YOU

never know how terrible my life has been

YOU donrsquot

YOU do not

-------------------------------------------------------

It is hard to explain how happy I am now

You were standing on the stage and

catching everyonersquos attention I know you

did it my dear Willy

Did you notice I was watching you Did

12

you recognize me Since ten years ago

have you ever thought of me Even one

time Have you

Perhaps there are 3 or 4 more wrinkles on

my face so maybe you donrsquot know who I

am

I donrsquot dare to ask you this question

because I already know your answerhelliphelliphellip

13

Chapiter2 Childhood

ldquoDad I promise Irsquoll be a successful man

taking care of Mom and youhelliphellip so please

we have to leave the hospital with your

recoveryrdquo I said as holding my father

hands

ldquoNohelliphellipWilly I beg for your forgiveness I

havenrsquot taken the responsibility of taking

care of you and your momrdquo said my

father

Suddenly my tears trickled down both of

14

my cheeks I didnrsquot understand He was

such a nice person and he worked late

almost everyday Whenever I saw him he

looked tired and sleepy

ldquoAll right itrsquos time to go home Willyrdquo said

my mother And it was the last time I saw

my father

Afterwards everything changed I was

sent to an orphanage but I was not an

orphan ldquoWhere was my mom Did she

abandon me alreadyrdquo I asked the clerk

there

15

She smiled at me and said ldquoDonrsquot worry

wersquoll take care of yourdquo instead of

answering my question

What happened to me Me me

mehelliphelliphelliphelliphellip

I hate my mom Very much

I started to rebel the women taking care of

me over

there since

I didnrsquot like

them too

They didnrsquot tell me the truth even though

16

each of them knew Everyone was my

enemy Where were my friends

Finally I accidently met York and Harry

They gave me a hand and shared their

story which was similar to mine From

then on we became essential for one

another Wherever we went we were

together

ldquoI donrsquot want to stay here any longer Just

think we have to be here until 20 It sucks

I want a life more interesting and exciting

I have a planhelliphellipIrsquom gonna open an ice

17

cream parlor If you two agree we can

ldquoButhellipwhat about moneyrdquo I asked

ldquoDonrsquot worry I will bring all my money It

will be enough By the way we can find

your motherrdquo

ldquoPlease donrsquot mention her Ok Irsquoll go with

you How about you Harryrdquo

ldquoOf course we are essential for one

anotherrdquo

ldquoYes We arerdquo York and I said

We left for another city and started our

18

new business The

name of our parlor was

called ldquoWHY ice creamrdquo

because WHY stands

for us three --- Willy

Harry and York

-------------------------------------------------------

I didnrsquot know how you have been

regarding me I justhellipI justhellipI had

something untold to inform you When

could I see you again I totally had no

idea What I wanted to say was that I did

19

this for some reasons Would you forgive

me Would you Whenever I saw Lisa I

thought of you What were you doing now

Did you have a better life now Did you

take good care of yourself I went to the

orphanage yesterday but they said you

were gone where did you leave for Why

did you leave The clerks there didnrsquot

treat you well Andhellipwere you safe now I

asked your aunt your teachershellipand none

of them saw you Where did you go No

matter what I would find you in the end

20

Sorry and I would give you a hand if

necessary Wait for me

21

Chapiter3 Relationship

After we have owned WHY ice cream for

four years Harry became a student of

interior design He discovered he had art

talent from designing and decorating our

ice cream parlor In order to become a

professional designer we collected all our

savings for him to study interior design

Recently I met a girl whose name was

Cherry Like fruit Cherry when she was

smiling my heart melted right away

22

Usually she came to our parlor every

afternoon

ldquoGood afternoon Miss which flavor would

you likerdquo

ldquoI donrsquot knowhelliphellipcould you choose one for

merdquo

ldquoSure no problem Ok here you are This

flavor is strawberryrdquo

This was the conversation the first time

we met each other Afterwards she came

everyday Little by little I knew more

about her She was a university student

23

nearby Freshman still Didnrsquot know too

much here I like to talk to her because no

matter what I said she was always

smiling

ldquoHow come you always choose strawberry

for merdquo she asked with curiosity

ldquoBecause you are sweet and fragile I

want to protect

yourdquo I answered

seriously

Both of us laughed

at the same time Not long after we

24

became girl and boy friends And of

course I knew much more about her She

loved playing the guitar she loved singing

her father was a teacher she had no

brothers or sisters and she loved me

ldquoHey Irsquom gonna practice my guitar with

my classmates wanna come with merdquo

Cherry asked

ldquoOhhelliphellipnohellipI donrsquot have any music talent

Itrsquos not for me I gotta gordquo

ldquoPleasehellipWilly I want your opinion about

something Next week is my year-end

25

evaluation I wanna do it well and perfect

pleasehelliprdquo

ldquoAll right all rightrdquo I replied unwillingly

She took a deep breath and said ldquoOk

now Ilsquom gonna sing lsquoLove Storyrsquo by Taylor

Swiftrdquo

We were both young when I

first saw you

I close my eyes

And the flashback starts

26

Im standing there

On a balcony of summer air

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

ldquoWell Cherry please stoprdquo I interrupted

ldquoWhatrdquo

ldquoI know I canrsquot give you any useful opinion

27

but what I wanna say is yoursquore not into this

songrdquo

ldquoWhat do you mean by thatrdquo

ldquoYou donrsquot know the meaning of the lyrics

do you When yoursquore singing I canrsquot feel

your emotionrdquo

ldquoEmotion emotionhelliphellipoh I see Irsquoll do it

better next time ok Letrsquos start againrdquo

However after singing the song several

times she was still confused I decided to

sing myself

28

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

That you were Romeo you were throwing

pebbles

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

And I was crying on the staircase

Begging you please dont go and I said

29

ldquoWilly how amazing You make me sad

by singingrdquo

ldquoSee I told you so Ok try it again

Cherryrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I never gave up looking for you HE

definitely helped me a lot and also asked

many people to find you Eventually we

found you

I knew you were falling in love with a girl

She was beautiful and elegant You were

quite lucky huh Recently you are

30

always practicing singing with her right

You have a talent for singing just like your

dad When we were at university he was

well-known because of his singing But

perhaps you didnrsquot notice that Maybe that

girl could help you further develop your

talent

31

Chapiter4 Thankful

One year later Cherry noticed an ad for a

singing competition in our community

ldquoYou should show your talent to the public

Willy you can do it I swearrdquo she said

ldquoWell I donrsquot know I donrsquot know if I can

sing well I havenrsquot got any training By the

way I donrsquot want to give up my businessrdquo

ldquoNo I didnrsquot ask you to give it up Therersquos

still York isnrsquot there Also I remember you

told me you wanted to open another one

32

right Itrsquos a great opportunity The grand

prize is a lot Why not try for itrdquo

Then because I couldnrsquot resist her

persuasion I took part in the competition

During the preparation she helped me a

lot and gave me plenty of suggestions I

could feel she really loved me Her

mid-term exam would be coming but she

never talked about the exam in front of me

She was happy to assist me to make my

dream come true I was so lucky she was

sohelliphellipperfect so kind so thoughtful

33

Therefore I didnrsquot want to let her down I

promised that I would do my best to win

the first prize

Cherry knew more about music and she

volunteered to be my keyboard player

ldquoWhich song would you like to sing for the

competitionrdquo she asked

ldquoOf course our first songmdashLove Storyrdquo

ldquoHello ehhelliphellipIrsquom Willy and this beautiful

girl is my keyboard player Well today

wersquore gonna sing Taylor Swiftrsquos Love

34

Story We hope you will enjoy itrdquo

Cause you were Romeo

I was a scarlet letter

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

But you were everything to me

I was begging you please dont go

And I said

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone

Ill be waiting all theres left to do is run

Youll be the prince and Ill be the princess

35

Its a love story baby just say yes

Romeo save me theyre trying to tell me how

to feel

This love is difficult but its real

Dont be afraid well make it out of this mess

Its a love story baby just say yes

ldquoThis song is also for my lovely Cherry

the luckiest thing in my life is I met her Itrsquos

enough for me the rest of life staying with

her come here honeyrdquo I said trying to

36

give her a hug

The audience was whistling and we were

smiling at each other But Unfortunately I

didnrsquot win anything from competition

Some people said that it was because the

judges didnrsquot like the competitors talking

too much on stage about something

useless and unnecessary

Luckily I didnrsquot know if it was because of

my lucky star Cherry or not Someone

loved my voice very much and decided to

give her savings about NT$100000

37

I wondered who she was But that

benefactor didnrsquot want me to know

ldquoQuite strange huhrdquo I said

ldquoMaybe your voice touched her reached

the deepest part of her soul that nobody

touched before No matter what

congratulations Willy you did a great

jobrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I saw you on stage which was quite

touching I never imagined you would be

on stage and I would be the audience I

38

could tell you

loved your girl

very much

You looked like your father so muchhelliphellip

39

Chapiter5 Fact

I was really grateful for Cherry and the

nameless person They let me realize in

this world someone admired me Thatrsquos

why I was on the stage of Taiwanese top

singer Another reason was that I wanted

my mom to be regretful that she had

abandoned me before I wanted to show

her I was successful and no matter what

she said to me I wouldnrsquot admit she was

my mom

However three days later while I entered

40

the building of the competition I saw an

old woman lying on the floor in front of the

building

Suddenly I recognized that she was my

mom The one who I missed so much and

there was a letter in her hand

My dear Willy

I know you will never forgive me but there is

something I want to explain to you because

tomorrow my new husband and I will immigrate to

Canada This is the last time I will see your

performance The reason why I left you when you

41

were 15 is that your father was sick and the only

way to get the money for the operation was to

borrow from my manager I knew he liked me but

still I did it He said I didnrsquot have to pay him back

The only requirement was I had to stay with him

and take care of his daughter Linda and he

promised he would give you as much money as he

possibly could Like the competition in your

community the sponsor was him I knew it was my

fault to leave you but I had no more options Willy

I totally regret to do this action so since several

years ago I always followed you I tried to protect

42

you and knew what are you doing know Forgive

mom okay

This is my phone number Whenever you miss me

call me right away 0912345678

my mom to be regretful that she had

abandoned me before I wanted to show

her I was successful and no matter what

she said to me I wouldnrsquot admit she was

my mom

However three days later while I entered

40

the building of the competition I saw an

old woman lying on the floor in front of the

building

Suddenly I recognized that she was my

mom The one who I missed so much and

there was a letter in her hand

My dear Willy

I know you will never forgive me but there is

something I want to explain to you because

tomorrow my new husband and I will immigrate to

Canada This is the last time I will see your

performance The reason why I left you when you

41

were 15 is that your father was sick and the only

way to get the money for the operation was to

borrow from my manager I knew he liked me but

still I did it He said I didnrsquot have to pay him back

The only requirement was I had to stay with him

and take care of his daughter Linda and he

promised he would give you as much money as he

possibly could Like the competition in your

community the sponsor was him I knew it was my

fault to leave you but I had no more options Willy

I totally regret to do this action so since several

years ago I always followed you I tried to protect

42

you and knew what are you doing know Forgive

mom okay

This is my phone number Whenever you miss me

call me right away 0912345678

Always loving you

mom

Chapiter1 Talent Show

ldquoWersquore Taiwanese Top Singer See you

emotion on stage

ldquoMr White how could you do that Your

voice is always touchingrdquo

ldquoJust one question okay Just one

pleasehelliphellipMr Whiterdquo

God What is that noise

I canrsquot imagine how many paparazzo will

7

be waiting for me at the exit

This is not what I expecting I just want

YOU to know your decision is wrong

Yesterday you came to lift me up

As light as straw and brittle as a bird

Today I weigh less than a shadow on the wall

Just one more whisper of a voice unheard

Tomorrow leave the windows open

As fear grows please hold me in your arms

Wont you help me if you can to shake this

8

anger

I need your gentle hands to keep me calm

Now I am the

competitor in

one of the most

popular talent

shows in Taiwan that is Taiwanese Top

Singer Recently more and more people

noticed me because they said they were

touched by my voice

After the show every week receiving lots

9

of gifts from my fans and being

interviewed by journalists were common

and regular for me I got used to it

Tina the hostess of the show is the

person I deeply admired Actually she is

like my mother

Before the show started she reminded

me to take a deep breath not to be afraid

and do my best Also after the show

ended she gave me some advice about

the performances today

10

ldquoToday you performed toohellipyou know too

strongly it seemed you were pretending

Be calm and express your feeling as

much as you can next time but please in

an appropriate limitation Willy For me

yoursquore always the best competitorrdquo Tina

told me

But I wasnrsquot

I wasnrsquot

I knew that was because I saw YOU

accidently I never thought I would meet

YOU again Everything you had done to

11

me suddenly came back to me YOU

never know how terrible my life has been

YOU donrsquot

YOU do not

-------------------------------------------------------

It is hard to explain how happy I am now

You were standing on the stage and

catching everyonersquos attention I know you

did it my dear Willy

Did you notice I was watching you Did

12

you recognize me Since ten years ago

have you ever thought of me Even one

time Have you

Perhaps there are 3 or 4 more wrinkles on

my face so maybe you donrsquot know who I

am

I donrsquot dare to ask you this question

because I already know your answerhelliphelliphellip

13

Chapiter2 Childhood

ldquoDad I promise Irsquoll be a successful man

taking care of Mom and youhelliphellip so please

we have to leave the hospital with your

recoveryrdquo I said as holding my father

hands

ldquoNohelliphellipWilly I beg for your forgiveness I

havenrsquot taken the responsibility of taking

care of you and your momrdquo said my

father

Suddenly my tears trickled down both of

14

my cheeks I didnrsquot understand He was

such a nice person and he worked late

almost everyday Whenever I saw him he

looked tired and sleepy

ldquoAll right itrsquos time to go home Willyrdquo said

my mother And it was the last time I saw

my father

Afterwards everything changed I was

sent to an orphanage but I was not an

orphan ldquoWhere was my mom Did she

abandon me alreadyrdquo I asked the clerk

there

15

She smiled at me and said ldquoDonrsquot worry

wersquoll take care of yourdquo instead of

answering my question

What happened to me Me me

mehelliphelliphelliphelliphellip

I hate my mom Very much

I started to rebel the women taking care of

me over

there since

I didnrsquot like

them too

They didnrsquot tell me the truth even though

16

each of them knew Everyone was my

enemy Where were my friends

Finally I accidently met York and Harry

They gave me a hand and shared their

story which was similar to mine From

then on we became essential for one

another Wherever we went we were

together

ldquoI donrsquot want to stay here any longer Just

think we have to be here until 20 It sucks

I want a life more interesting and exciting

I have a planhelliphellipIrsquom gonna open an ice

17

cream parlor If you two agree we can

leave tonightrdquo said York

ldquoButhellipwhat about moneyrdquo I asked

ldquoDonrsquot worry I will bring all my money It

will be enough By the way we can find

your motherrdquo

ldquoPlease donrsquot mention her Ok Irsquoll go with

you How about you Harryrdquo

ldquoOf course we are essential for one

anotherrdquo

ldquoYes We arerdquo York and I said

We left for another city and started our

18

new business The

name of our parlor was

called ldquoWHY ice creamrdquo

because WHY stands

for us three --- Willy

Harry and York

-------------------------------------------------------

I didnrsquot know how you have been

regarding me I justhellipI justhellipI had

something untold to inform you When

could I see you again I totally had no

idea What I wanted to say was that I did

19

this for some reasons Would you forgive

me Would you Whenever I saw Lisa I

thought of you What were you doing now

Did you have a better life now Did you

take good care of yourself I went to the

orphanage yesterday but they said you

were gone where did you leave for Why

did you leave The clerks there didnrsquot

treat you well Andhellipwere you safe now I

asked your aunt your teachershellipand none

of them saw you Where did you go No

matter what I would find you in the end

20

Sorry and I would give you a hand if

necessary Wait for me

21

Chapiter3 Relationship

After we have owned WHY ice cream for

four years Harry became a student of

interior design He discovered he had art

talent from designing and decorating our

ice cream parlor In order to become a

professional designer we collected all our

savings for him to study interior design

Recently I met a girl whose name was

Cherry Like fruit Cherry when she was

smiling my heart melted right away

22

Usually she came to our parlor every

afternoon

ldquoGood afternoon Miss which flavor would

you likerdquo

ldquoI donrsquot knowhelliphellipcould you choose one for

merdquo

ldquoSure no problem Ok here you are This

flavor is strawberryrdquo

This was the conversation the first time

we met each other Afterwards she came

everyday Little by little I knew more

about her She was a university student

23

nearby Freshman still Didnrsquot know too

much here I like to talk to her because no

matter what I said she was always

smiling

ldquoHow come you always choose strawberry

for merdquo she asked with curiosity

ldquoBecause you are sweet and fragile I

want to protect

yourdquo I answered

seriously

Both of us laughed

at the same time Not long after we

24

became girl and boy friends And of

course I knew much more about her She

loved playing the guitar she loved singing

her father was a teacher she had no

brothers or sisters and she loved me

ldquoHey Irsquom gonna practice my guitar with

my classmates wanna come with merdquo

Cherry asked

ldquoOhhelliphellipnohellipI donrsquot have any music talent

Itrsquos not for me I gotta gordquo

ldquoPleasehellipWilly I want your opinion about

something Next week is my year-end

25

evaluation I wanna do it well and perfect

pleasehelliprdquo

ldquoAll right all rightrdquo I replied unwillingly

She took a deep breath and said ldquoOk

now Ilsquom gonna sing lsquoLove Storyrsquo by Taylor

Swiftrdquo

We were both young when I

first saw you

I close my eyes

And the flashback starts

26

Im standing there

On a balcony of summer air

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

ldquoWell Cherry please stoprdquo I interrupted

ldquoWhatrdquo

ldquoI know I canrsquot give you any useful opinion

27

but what I wanna say is yoursquore not into this

songrdquo

ldquoWhat do you mean by thatrdquo

ldquoYou donrsquot know the meaning of the lyrics

do you When yoursquore singing I canrsquot feel

your emotionrdquo

ldquoEmotion emotionhelliphellipoh I see Irsquoll do it

better next time ok Letrsquos start againrdquo

However after singing the song several

times she was still confused I decided to

sing myself

28

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

That you were Romeo you were throwing

pebbles

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

And I was crying on the staircase

Begging you please dont go and I said

29

ldquoWilly how amazing You make me sad

by singingrdquo

ldquoSee I told you so Ok try it again

Cherryrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I never gave up looking for you HE

definitely helped me a lot and also asked

many people to find you Eventually we

found you

I knew you were falling in love with a girl

She was beautiful and elegant You were

quite lucky huh Recently you are

30

always practicing singing with her right

You have a talent for singing just like your

dad When we were at university he was

well-known because of his singing But

perhaps you didnrsquot notice that Maybe that

girl could help you further develop your

talent

31

Chapiter4 Thankful

One year later Cherry noticed an ad for a

singing competition in our community

ldquoYou should show your talent to the public

Willy you can do it I swearrdquo she said

ldquoWell I donrsquot know I donrsquot know if I can

sing well I havenrsquot got any training By the

way I donrsquot want to give up my businessrdquo

ldquoNo I didnrsquot ask you to give it up Therersquos

still York isnrsquot there Also I remember you

told me you wanted to open another one

32

right Itrsquos a great opportunity The grand

prize is a lot Why not try for itrdquo

Then because I couldnrsquot resist her

persuasion I took part in the competition

During the preparation she helped me a

lot and gave me plenty of suggestions I

could feel she really loved me Her

mid-term exam would be coming but she

never talked about the exam in front of me

She was happy to assist me to make my

dream come true I was so lucky she was

sohelliphellipperfect so kind so thoughtful

33

Therefore I didnrsquot want to let her down I

promised that I would do my best to win

the first prize

Cherry knew more about music and she

volunteered to be my keyboard player

ldquoWhich song would you like to sing for the

competitionrdquo she asked

ldquoOf course our first songmdashLove Storyrdquo

ldquoHello ehhelliphellipIrsquom Willy and this beautiful

girl is my keyboard player Well today

wersquore gonna sing Taylor Swiftrsquos Love

34

Story We hope you will enjoy itrdquo

Cause you were Romeo

I was a scarlet letter

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

But you were everything to me

I was begging you please dont go

And I said

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone

Ill be waiting all theres left to do is run

Youll be the prince and Ill be the princess

35

Its a love story baby just say yes

Romeo save me theyre trying to tell me how

to feel

This love is difficult but its real

Dont be afraid well make it out of this mess

Its a love story baby just say yes

ldquoThis song is also for my lovely Cherry

the luckiest thing in my life is I met her Itrsquos

enough for me the rest of life staying with

her come here honeyrdquo I said trying to

36

give her a hug

The audience was whistling and we were

smiling at each other But Unfortunately I

didnrsquot win anything from competition

Some people said that it was because the

judges didnrsquot like the competitors talking

too much on stage about something

useless and unnecessary

Luckily I didnrsquot know if it was because of

my lucky star Cherry or not Someone

loved my voice very much and decided to

give her savings about NT$100000

37

I wondered who she was But that

benefactor didnrsquot want me to know

ldquoQuite strange huhrdquo I said

ldquoMaybe your voice touched her reached

the deepest part of her soul that nobody

touched before No matter what

congratulations Willy you did a great

jobrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I saw you on stage which was quite

touching I never imagined you would be

on stage and I would be the audience I

38

could tell you

loved your girl

very much

You looked like your father so muchhelliphellip

39

Chapiter5 Fact

I was really grateful for Cherry and the

nameless person They let me realize in

this world someone admired me Thatrsquos

why I was on the stage of Taiwanese top

singer Another reason was that I wanted

my mom to be regretful that she had

abandoned me before I wanted to show

her I was successful and no matter what

she said to me I wouldnrsquot admit she was

my mom

However three days later while I entered

40

old woman lying on the floor in front of the

building

Suddenly I recognized that she was my

mom The one who I missed so much and

there was a letter in her hand

My dear Willy

I know you will never forgive me but there is

something I want to explain to you because

tomorrow my new husband and I will immigrate to

Canada This is the last time I will see your

performance The reason why I left you when you

41

were 15 is that your father was sick and the only

way to get the money for the operation was to

borrow from my manager I knew he liked me but

were 15 is that your father was sick and the only

way to get the money for the operation was to

borrow from my manager I knew he liked me but

still I did it He said I didnrsquot have to pay him back

The only requirement was I had to stay with him

and take care of his daughter Linda and he

promised he would give you as much money as he

possibly could Like the competition in your

community the sponsor was him I knew it was my

fault to leave you but I had no more options Willy

I totally regret to do this action so since several

years ago I always followed you I tried to protect

42

you and knew what are you doing know Forgive

mom okay

This is my phone number Whenever you miss me

call me right away 0912345678

Always loving you

mom

be waiting for me at the exit

This is not what I expecting I just want

YOU to know your decision is wrong

Yesterday you came to lift me up

As light as straw and brittle as a bird

Today I weigh less than a shadow on the wall

Just one more whisper of a voice unheard

Tomorrow leave the windows open

As fear grows please hold me in your arms

Wont you help me if you can to shake this

8

anger

I need your gentle hands to keep me calm

Now I am the

competitor in

one of the most

popular talent

shows in Taiwan that is Taiwanese Top

Singer Recently more and more people

noticed me because they said they were

touched by my voice

After the show every week receiving lots

9

of gifts from my fans and being

interviewed by journalists were common

and regular for me I got used to it

Tina the hostess of the show is the

person I deeply admired Actually she is

like my mother

Before the show started she reminded

me to take a deep breath not to be afraid

and do my best Also after the show

ended she gave me some advice about

the performances today

10

ldquoToday you performed toohellipyou know too

strongly it seemed you were pretending

Be calm and express your feeling as

much as you can next time but please in

an appropriate limitation Willy For me

yoursquore always the best competitorrdquo Tina

told me

But I wasnrsquot

I wasnrsquot

I knew that was because I saw YOU

accidently I never thought I would meet

YOU again Everything you had done to

11

me suddenly came back to me YOU

never know how terrible my life has been

YOU donrsquot

YOU do not

-------------------------------------------------------

It is hard to explain how happy I am now

You were standing on the stage and

catching everyonersquos attention I know you

did it my dear Willy

Did you notice I was watching you Did

12

you recognize me Since ten years ago

have you ever thought of me Even one

time Have you

Perhaps there are 3 or 4 more wrinkles on

my face so maybe you donrsquot know who I

am

I donrsquot dare to ask you this question

because I already know your answerhelliphelliphellip

13

Chapiter2 Childhood

ldquoDad I promise Irsquoll be a successful man

taking care of Mom and youhelliphellip so please

we have to leave the hospital with your

recoveryrdquo I said as holding my father

hands

ldquoNohelliphellipWilly I beg for your forgiveness I

havenrsquot taken the responsibility of taking

care of you and your momrdquo said my

father

Suddenly my tears trickled down both of

14

my cheeks I didnrsquot understand He was

such a nice person and he worked late

almost everyday Whenever I saw him he

looked tired and sleepy

ldquoAll right itrsquos time to go home Willyrdquo said

my mother And it was the last time I saw

my father

Afterwards everything changed I was

sent to an orphanage but I was not an

orphan ldquoWhere was my mom Did she

abandon me alreadyrdquo I asked the clerk

there

15

She smiled at me and said ldquoDonrsquot worry

wersquoll take care of yourdquo instead of

answering my question

What happened to me Me me

mehelliphelliphelliphelliphellip

I hate my mom Very much

I started to rebel the women taking care of

me over

there since

I didnrsquot like

them too

They didnrsquot tell me the truth even though

16

each of them knew Everyone was my

enemy Where were my friends

Finally I accidently met York and Harry

They gave me a hand and shared their

story which was similar to mine From

then on we became essential for one

another Wherever we went we were

together

ldquoI donrsquot want to stay here any longer Just

think we have to be here until 20 It sucks

I want a life more interesting and exciting

I have a planhelliphellipIrsquom gonna open an ice

17

cream parlor If you two agree we can

leave tonightrdquo said York

ldquoButhellipwhat about moneyrdquo I asked

ldquoDonrsquot worry I will bring all my money It

will be enough By the way we can find

your motherrdquo

ldquoPlease donrsquot mention her Ok Irsquoll go with

you How about you Harryrdquo

ldquoOf course we are essential for one

anotherrdquo

ldquoYes We arerdquo York and I said

We left for another city and started our

18

new business The

name of our parlor was

called ldquoWHY ice creamrdquo

because WHY stands

for us three --- Willy

Harry and York

-------------------------------------------------------

I didnrsquot know how you have been

regarding me I justhellipI justhellipI had

something untold to inform you When

could I see you again I totally had no

idea What I wanted to say was that I did

19

this for some reasons Would you forgive

me Would you Whenever I saw Lisa I

thought of you What were you doing now

Did you have a better life now Did you

take good care of yourself I went to the

orphanage yesterday but they said you

were gone where did you leave for Why

did you leave The clerks there didnrsquot

treat you well Andhellipwere you safe now I

asked your aunt your teachershellipand none

of them saw you Where did you go No

matter what I would find you in the end

20

Sorry and I would give you a hand if

necessary Wait for me

21

Chapiter3 Relationship

After we have owned WHY ice cream for

four years Harry became a student of

interior design He discovered he had art

talent from designing and decorating our

ice cream parlor In order to become a

professional designer we collected all our

savings for him to study interior design

Recently I met a girl whose name was

Cherry Like fruit Cherry when she was

smiling my heart melted right away

22

Usually she came to our parlor every

afternoon

ldquoGood afternoon Miss which flavor would

you likerdquo

ldquoI donrsquot knowhelliphellipcould you choose one for

merdquo

ldquoSure no problem Ok here you are This

flavor is strawberryrdquo

This was the conversation the first time

we met each other Afterwards she came

everyday Little by little I knew more

about her She was a university student

23

nearby Freshman still Didnrsquot know too

much here I like to talk to her because no

matter what I said she was always

smiling

ldquoHow come you always choose strawberry

for merdquo she asked with curiosity

ldquoBecause you are sweet and fragile I

want to protect

yourdquo I answered

seriously

Both of us laughed

at the same time Not long after we

24

became girl and boy friends And of

course I knew much more about her She

loved playing the guitar she loved singing

her father was a teacher she had no

brothers or sisters and she loved me

ldquoHey Irsquom gonna practice my guitar with

my classmates wanna come with merdquo

Cherry asked

ldquoOhhelliphellipnohellipI donrsquot have any music talent

Itrsquos not for me I gotta gordquo

ldquoPleasehellipWilly I want your opinion about

something Next week is my year-end

25

evaluation I wanna do it well and perfect

pleasehelliprdquo

ldquoAll right all rightrdquo I replied unwillingly

She took a deep breath and said ldquoOk

now Ilsquom gonna sing lsquoLove Storyrsquo by Taylor

Swiftrdquo

We were both young when I

first saw you

I close my eyes

And the flashback starts

26

Im standing there

On a balcony of summer air

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

ldquoWell Cherry please stoprdquo I interrupted

ldquoWhatrdquo

ldquoI know I canrsquot give you any useful opinion

27

but what I wanna say is yoursquore not into this

songrdquo

ldquoWhat do you mean by thatrdquo

ldquoYou donrsquot know the meaning of the lyrics

do you When yoursquore singing I canrsquot feel

your emotionrdquo

ldquoEmotion emotionhelliphellipoh I see Irsquoll do it

better next time ok Letrsquos start againrdquo

However after singing the song several

times she was still confused I decided to

sing myself

28

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

That you were Romeo you were throwing

pebbles

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

And I was crying on the staircase

Begging you please dont go and I said

29

ldquoWilly how amazing You make me sad

by singingrdquo

ldquoSee I told you so Ok try it again

Cherryrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I never gave up looking for you HE

definitely helped me a lot and also asked

many people to find you Eventually we

found you

I knew you were falling in love with a girl

She was beautiful and elegant You were

quite lucky huh Recently you are

30

always practicing singing with her right

You have a talent for singing just like your

dad When we were at university he was

well-known because of his singing But

perhaps you didnrsquot notice that Maybe that

girl could help you further develop your

talent

31

Chapiter4 Thankful

One year later Cherry noticed an ad for a

singing competition in our community

ldquoYou should show your talent to the public

Willy you can do it I swearrdquo she said

ldquoWell I donrsquot know I donrsquot know if I can

sing well I havenrsquot got any training By the

way I donrsquot want to give up my businessrdquo

ldquoNo I didnrsquot ask you to give it up Therersquos

still York isnrsquot there Also I remember you

told me you wanted to open another one

32

right Itrsquos a great opportunity The grand

prize is a lot Why not try for itrdquo

Then because I couldnrsquot resist her

persuasion I took part in the competition

During the preparation she helped me a

lot and gave me plenty of suggestions I

could feel she really loved me Her

mid-term exam would be coming but she

never talked about the exam in front of me

She was happy to assist me to make my

dream come true I was so lucky she was

sohelliphellipperfect so kind so thoughtful

33

Therefore I didnrsquot want to let her down I

promised that I would do my best to win

the first prize

Cherry knew more about music and she

volunteered to be my keyboard player

ldquoWhich song would you like to sing for the

competitionrdquo she asked

ldquoOf course our first songmdashLove Storyrdquo

ldquoHello ehhelliphellipIrsquom Willy and this beautiful

girl is my keyboard player Well today

wersquore gonna sing Taylor Swiftrsquos Love

34

Story We hope you will enjoy itrdquo

Cause you were Romeo

I was a scarlet letter

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

But you were everything to me

I was begging you please dont go

And I said

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone

Ill be waiting all theres left to do is run

Youll be the prince and Ill be the princess

35

Its a love story baby just say yes

Romeo save me theyre trying to tell me how

to feel

This love is difficult but its real

Dont be afraid well make it out of this mess

Its a love story baby just say yes

ldquoThis song is also for my lovely Cherry

the luckiest thing in my life is I met her Itrsquos

enough for me the rest of life staying with

her come here honeyrdquo I said trying to

36

give her a hug

The audience was whistling and we were

smiling at each other But Unfortunately I

didnrsquot win anything from competition

Some people said that it was because the

judges didnrsquot like the competitors talking

too much on stage about something

useless and unnecessary

Luckily I didnrsquot know if it was because of

my lucky star Cherry or not Someone

loved my voice very much and decided to

give her savings about NT$100000

37

I wondered who she was But that

benefactor didnrsquot want me to know

ldquoQuite strange huhrdquo I said

ldquoMaybe your voice touched her reached

the deepest part of her soul that nobody

touched before No matter what

congratulations Willy you did a great

jobrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I saw you on stage which was quite

touching I never imagined you would be

on stage and I would be the audience I

38

could tell you

loved your girl

very much

You looked like your father so muchhelliphellip

39

Chapiter5 Fact

I was really grateful for Cherry and the

nameless person They let me realize in

this world someone admired me Thatrsquos

why I was on the stage of Taiwanese top

singer Another reason was that I wanted

my mom to be regretful that she had

abandoned me before I wanted to show

her I was successful and no matter what

she said to me I wouldnrsquot admit she was

my mom

However three days later while I entered

40

the building of the competition I saw an

old woman lying on the floor in front of the

building

Suddenly I recognized that she was my

mom The one who I missed so much and

there was a letter in her hand

My dear Willy

I know you will never forgive me but there is

something I want to explain to you because

tomorrow my new husband and I will immigrate to

Canada This is the last time I will see your

performance The reason why I left you when you

41

were 15 is that your father was sick and the only

way to get the money for the operation was to

borrow from my manager I knew he liked me but

still I did it He said I didnrsquot have to pay him back

The only requirement was I had to stay with him

and take care of his daughter Linda and he

promised he would give you as much money as he

possibly could Like the competition in your

community the sponsor was him I knew it was my

fault to leave you but I had no more options Willy

I totally regret to do this action so since several

11

me suddenly came back to me YOU

YOU donrsquot

-------------------------------------------------------

It is hard to explain how happy I am now

You were standing on the stage and

catching everyonersquos attention I know you

did it my dear Willy

Did you notice I was watching you Did

12

you recognize me Since ten years ago

have you ever thought of me Even one

time Have you

Perhaps there are 3 or 4 more wrinkles on

my face so maybe you donrsquot know who I

am

I donrsquot dare to ask you this question

because I already know your answerhelliphelliphellip

13

Chapiter2 Childhood

ldquoDad I promise Irsquoll be a successful man

taking care of Mom and youhelliphellip so please

we have to leave the hospital with your

recoveryrdquo I said as holding my father

hands

ldquoNohelliphellipWilly I beg for your forgiveness I

havenrsquot taken the responsibility of taking

care of you and your momrdquo said my

father

Suddenly my tears trickled down both of

14

my cheeks I didnrsquot understand He was

such a nice person and he worked late

almost everyday Whenever I saw him he

looked tired and sleepy

ldquoAll right itrsquos time to go home Willyrdquo said

my mother And it was the last time I saw

my father

Afterwards everything changed I was

sent to an orphanage but I was not an

orphan ldquoWhere was my mom Did she

abandon me alreadyrdquo I asked the clerk

there

15

She smiled at me and said ldquoDonrsquot worry

wersquoll take care of yourdquo instead of

answering my question

What happened to me Me me

mehelliphelliphelliphelliphellip

I hate my mom Very much

I started to rebel the women taking care of

me over

there since

I didnrsquot like

them too

They didnrsquot tell me the truth even though

16

each of them knew Everyone was my

enemy Where were my friends

Finally I accidently met York and Harry

They gave me a hand and shared their

story which was similar to mine From

then on we became essential for one

another Wherever we went we were

together

ldquoI donrsquot want to stay here any longer Just

think we have to be here until 20 It sucks

I want a life more interesting and exciting

I have a planhelliphellipIrsquom gonna open an ice

17

cream parlor If you two agree we can

leave tonightrdquo said York

ldquoButhellipwhat about moneyrdquo I asked

ldquoDonrsquot worry I will bring all my money It

will be enough By the way we can find

your motherrdquo

ldquoPlease donrsquot mention her Ok Irsquoll go with

you How about you Harryrdquo

ldquoOf course we are essential for one

anotherrdquo

ldquoYes We arerdquo York and I said

We left for another city and started our

18

new business The

name of our parlor was

called ldquoWHY ice creamrdquo

because WHY stands

for us three --- Willy

Harry and York

-------------------------------------------------------

I didnrsquot know how you have been

regarding me I justhellipI justhellipI had

something untold to inform you When

could I see you again I totally had no

idea What I wanted to say was that I did

19

this for some reasons Would you forgive

me Would you Whenever I saw Lisa I

thought of you What were you doing now

Did you have a better life now Did you

take good care of yourself I went to the

orphanage yesterday but they said you

were gone where did you leave for Why

did you leave The clerks there didnrsquot

treat you well Andhellipwere you safe now I

asked your aunt your teachershellipand none

of them saw you Where did you go No

matter what I would find you in the end

20

Sorry and I would give you a hand if

necessary Wait for me

21

Chapiter3 Relationship

After we have owned WHY ice cream for

four years Harry became a student of

interior design He discovered he had art

talent from designing and decorating our

ice cream parlor In order to become a

professional designer we collected all our

savings for him to study interior design

Recently I met a girl whose name was

Cherry Like fruit Cherry when she was

smiling my heart melted right away

22

Usually she came to our parlor every

afternoon

ldquoGood afternoon Miss which flavor would

you likerdquo

ldquoI donrsquot knowhelliphellipcould you choose one for

merdquo

ldquoSure no problem Ok here you are This

flavor is strawberryrdquo

This was the conversation the first time

we met each other Afterwards she came

everyday Little by little I knew more

about her She was a university student

23

nearby Freshman still Didnrsquot know too

much here I like to talk to her because no

matter what I said she was always

smiling

ldquoHow come you always choose strawberry

for merdquo she asked with curiosity

ldquoBecause you are sweet and fragile I

want to protect

yourdquo I answered

seriously

Both of us laughed

at the same time Not long after we

24

became girl and boy friends And of

course I knew much more about her She

loved playing the guitar she loved singing

her father was a teacher she had no

brothers or sisters and she loved me

ldquoHey Irsquom gonna practice my guitar with

my classmates wanna come with merdquo

Cherry asked

ldquoOhhelliphellipnohellipI donrsquot have any music talent

Itrsquos not for me I gotta gordquo

ldquoPleasehellipWilly I want your opinion about

something Next week is my year-end

25

evaluation I wanna do it well and perfect

pleasehelliprdquo

ldquoAll right all rightrdquo I replied unwillingly

She took a deep breath and said ldquoOk

now Ilsquom gonna sing lsquoLove Storyrsquo by Taylor

Swiftrdquo

We were both young when I

first saw you

I close my eyes

And the flashback starts

26

Im standing there

On a balcony of summer air

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

ldquoWell Cherry please stoprdquo I interrupted

ldquoWhatrdquo

ldquoI know I canrsquot give you any useful opinion

27

but what I wanna say is yoursquore not into this

songrdquo

ldquoWhat do you mean by thatrdquo

ldquoYou donrsquot know the meaning of the lyrics

do you When yoursquore singing I canrsquot feel

your emotionrdquo

ldquoEmotion emotionhelliphellipoh I see Irsquoll do it

better next time ok Letrsquos start againrdquo

However after singing the song several

times she was still confused I decided to

sing myself

28

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

That you were Romeo you were throwing

pebbles

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

And I was crying on the staircase

Begging you please dont go and I said

29

ldquoWilly how amazing You make me sad

by singingrdquo

ldquoSee I told you so Ok try it again

Cherryrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I never gave up looking for you HE

definitely helped me a lot and also asked

many people to find you Eventually we

found you

I knew you were falling in love with a girl

She was beautiful and elegant You were

quite lucky huh Recently you are

30

always practicing singing with her right

You have a talent for singing just like your

dad When we were at university he was

well-known because of his singing But

perhaps you didnrsquot notice that Maybe that

girl could help you further develop your

talent

31

Chapiter4 Thankful

One year later Cherry noticed an ad for a

singing competition in our community

ldquoYou should show your talent to the public

Willy you can do it I swearrdquo she said

ldquoWell I donrsquot know I donrsquot know if I can

sing well I havenrsquot got any training By the

way I donrsquot want to give up my businessrdquo

ldquoNo I didnrsquot ask you to give it up Therersquos

still York isnrsquot there Also I remember you

told me you wanted to open another one

32

right Itrsquos a great opportunity The grand

prize is a lot Why not try for itrdquo

Then because I couldnrsquot resist her

persuasion I took part in the competition

During the preparation she helped me a

lot and gave me plenty of suggestions I

could feel she really loved me Her

mid-term exam would be coming but she

never talked about the exam in front of me

She was happy to assist me to make my

dream come true I was so lucky she was

sohelliphellipperfect so kind so thoughtful

33

Therefore I didnrsquot want to let her down I

promised that I would do my best to win

the first prize

Cherry knew more about music and she

volunteered to be my keyboard player

ldquoWhich song would you like to sing for the

competitionrdquo she asked

ldquoOf course our first songmdashLove Storyrdquo

ldquoHello ehhelliphellipIrsquom Willy and this beautiful

girl is my keyboard player Well today

wersquore gonna sing Taylor Swiftrsquos Love

34

Story We hope you will enjoy itrdquo

Cause you were Romeo

I was a scarlet letter

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

But you were everything to me

I was begging you please dont go

And I said

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone

Ill be waiting all theres left to do is run

Youll be the prince and Ill be the princess

35

Its a love story baby just say yes

Romeo save me theyre trying to tell me how

to feel

This love is difficult but its real

Dont be afraid well make it out of this mess

Its a love story baby just say yes

ldquoThis song is also for my lovely Cherry

the luckiest thing in my life is I met her Itrsquos

enough for me the rest of life staying with

her come here honeyrdquo I said trying to

36

give her a hug

The audience was whistling and we were

smiling at each other But Unfortunately I

didnrsquot win anything from competition

Some people said that it was because the

judges didnrsquot like the competitors talking

too much on stage about something

useless and unnecessary

Luckily I didnrsquot know if it was because of

my lucky star Cherry or not Someone

loved my voice very much and decided to

give her savings about NT$100000

37

I wondered who she was But that

benefactor didnrsquot want me to know

ldquoQuite strange huhrdquo I said

ldquoMaybe your voice touched her reached

the deepest part of her soul that nobody

touched before No matter what

congratulations Willy you did a great

jobrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I saw you on stage which was quite

touching I never imagined you would be

on stage and I would be the audience I

38

could tell you

loved your girl

very much

You looked like your father so muchhelliphellip

39

Chapiter5 Fact

I was really grateful for Cherry and the

nameless person They let me realize in

this world someone admired me Thatrsquos

why I was on the stage of Taiwanese top

singer Another reason was that I wanted

my mom to be regretful that she had

abandoned me before I wanted to show

her I was successful and no matter what

she said to me I wouldnrsquot admit she was

my mom

However three days later while I entered

40

the building of the competition I saw an

old woman lying on the floor in front of the

building

Suddenly I recognized that she was my

mom The one who I missed so much and

there was a letter in her hand

My dear Willy

I know you will never forgive me but there is

something I want to explain to you because

tomorrow my new husband and I will immigrate to

Canada This is the last time I will see your

performance The reason why I left you when you

41

were 15 is that your father was sick and the only

way to get the money for the operation was to

borrow from my manager I knew he liked me but

still I did it He said I didnrsquot have to pay him back

The only requirement was I had to stay with him

and take care of his daughter Linda and he

promised he would give you as much money as he

possibly could Like the competition in your

community the sponsor was him I knew it was my

fault to leave you but I had no more options Willy

I totally regret to do this action so since several

years ago I always followed you I tried to protect

42

you and knew what are you doing know Forgive

mom okay

This is my phone number Whenever you miss me

call me right away 0912345678

Always loving you

mom

ice cream parlor In order to become a

professional designer we collected all our

savings for him to study interior design

Recently I met a girl whose name was

Cherry Like fruit Cherry when she was

smiling my heart melted right away

22

Usually she came to our parlor every

afternoon

ldquoGood afternoon Miss which flavor would

you likerdquo

ldquoI donrsquot knowhelliphellipcould you choose one for

merdquo

ldquoSure no problem Ok here you are This

flavor is strawberryrdquo

This was the conversation the first time

we met each other Afterwards she came

everyday Little by little I knew more

about her She was a university student

23

nearby Freshman still Didnrsquot know too

much here I like to talk to her because no

matter what I said she was always

smiling

ldquoHow come you always choose strawberry

for merdquo she asked with curiosity

ldquoBecause you are sweet and fragile I

want to protect

yourdquo I answered

seriously

Both of us laughed

at the same time Not long after we

24

became girl and boy friends And of

course I knew much more about her She

loved playing the guitar she loved singing

her father was a teacher she had no

brothers or sisters and she loved me

ldquoHey Irsquom gonna practice my guitar with

my classmates wanna come with merdquo

Cherry asked

ldquoOhhelliphellipnohellipI donrsquot have any music talent

Itrsquos not for me I gotta gordquo

ldquoPleasehellipWilly I want your opinion about

something Next week is my year-end

25

evaluation I wanna do it well and perfect

pleasehelliprdquo

ldquoAll right all rightrdquo I replied unwillingly

She took a deep breath and said ldquoOk

now Ilsquom gonna sing lsquoLove Storyrsquo by Taylor

Swiftrdquo

We were both young when I

first saw you

I close my eyes

And the flashback starts

26

Im standing there

On a balcony of summer air

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

ldquoWell Cherry please stoprdquo I interrupted

ldquoWhatrdquo

ldquoI know I canrsquot give you any useful opinion

27

but what I wanna say is yoursquore not into this

songrdquo

ldquoWhat do you mean by thatrdquo

ldquoYou donrsquot know the meaning of the lyrics

do you When yoursquore singing I canrsquot feel

your emotionrdquo

ldquoEmotion emotionhelliphellipoh I see Irsquoll do it

better next time ok Letrsquos start againrdquo

However after singing the song several

times she was still confused I decided to

sing myself

28

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

That you were Romeo you were throwing

pebbles

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

And I was crying on the staircase

Begging you please dont go and I said

29

ldquoWilly how amazing You make me sad

by singingrdquo

ldquoSee I told you so Ok try it again

Cherryrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I never gave up looking for you HE

definitely helped me a lot and also asked

many people to find you Eventually we

found you

I knew you were falling in love with a girl

She was beautiful and elegant You were

quite lucky huh Recently you are

30

always practicing singing with her right

You have a talent for singing just like your

dad When we were at university he was

well-known because of his singing But

perhaps you didnrsquot notice that Maybe that

girl could help you further develop your

talent

31

Chapiter4 Thankful

One year later Cherry noticed an ad for a

singing competition in our community

ldquoYou should show your talent to the public

Willy you can do it I swearrdquo she said

ldquoWell I donrsquot know I donrsquot know if I can

sing well I havenrsquot got any training By the

way I donrsquot want to give up my businessrdquo

ldquoNo I didnrsquot ask you to give it up Therersquos

still York isnrsquot there Also I remember you

told me you wanted to open another one

32

right Itrsquos a great opportunity The grand

prize is a lot Why not try for itrdquo

Then because I couldnrsquot resist her

persuasion I took part in the competition

During the preparation she helped me a

lot and gave me plenty of suggestions I

could feel she really loved me Her

mid-term exam would be coming but she

never talked about the exam in front of me

She was happy to assist me to make my

dream come true I was so lucky she was

sohelliphellipperfect so kind so thoughtful

33

Therefore I didnrsquot want to let her down I

promised that I would do my best to win

the first prize

Cherry knew more about music and she

volunteered to be my keyboard player

ldquoWhich song would you like to sing for the

competitionrdquo she asked

ldquoOf course our first songmdashLove Storyrdquo

ldquoHello ehhelliphellipIrsquom Willy and this beautiful

girl is my keyboard player Well today

wersquore gonna sing Taylor Swiftrsquos Love

34

Story We hope you will enjoy itrdquo

Cause you were Romeo

I was a scarlet letter

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

But you were everything to me

I was begging you please dont go

And I said

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone

Ill be waiting all theres left to do is run

Youll be the prince and Ill be the princess

35

Its a love story baby just say yes

Romeo save me theyre trying to tell me how

to feel

This love is difficult but its real

Dont be afraid well make it out of this mess

Its a love story baby just say yes

ldquoThis song is also for my lovely Cherry

the luckiest thing in my life is I met her Itrsquos

enough for me the rest of life staying with

her come here honeyrdquo I said trying to

36

give her a hug

The audience was whistling and we were

smiling at each other But Unfortunately I

didnrsquot win anything from competition

Some people said that it was because the

judges didnrsquot like the competitors talking

too much on stage about something

useless and unnecessary

Luckily I didnrsquot know if it was because of

my lucky star Cherry or not Someone

loved my voice very much and decided to

give her savings about NT$100000

37

I wondered who she was But that

benefactor didnrsquot want me to know

ldquoQuite strange huhrdquo I said

ldquoMaybe your voice touched her reached

the deepest part of her soul that nobody

touched before No matter what

congratulations Willy you did a great

jobrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I saw you on stage which was quite

touching I never imagined you would be

on stage and I would be the audience I

38

could tell you

loved your girl

very much

You looked like your father so muchhelliphellip

39

Chapiter5 Fact

I was really grateful for Cherry and the

nameless person They let me realize in

this world someone admired me Thatrsquos

why I was on the stage of Taiwanese top

singer Another reason was that I wanted

my mom to be regretful that she had

abandoned me before I wanted to show

her I was successful and no matter what

she said to me I wouldnrsquot admit she was

my mom

However three days later while I entered

40

the building of the competition I saw an

old woman lying on the floor in front of the

building

Suddenly I recognized that she was my

mom The one who I missed so much and

there was a letter in her hand

My dear Willy

I know you will never forgive me but there is

something I want to explain to you because

tomorrow my new husband and I will immigrate to

Canada This is the last time I will see your

performance The reason why I left you when you

41

were 15 is that your father was sick and the only

way to get the money for the operation was to

borrow from my manager I knew he liked me but

still I did it He said I didnrsquot have to pay him back

The only requirement was I had to stay with him

and take care of his daughter Linda and he

promised he would give you as much money as he

possibly could Like the competition in your

community the sponsor was him I knew it was my

fault to leave you but I had no more options Willy

I totally regret to do this action so since several

years ago I always followed you I tried to protect

42

you and knew what are you doing know Forgive

mom okay

This is my phone number Whenever you miss me

call me right away 0912345678

Always loving you

mom

you recognize me Since ten years ago

have you ever thought of me Even one

time Have you

Perhaps there are 3 or 4 more wrinkles on

my face so maybe you donrsquot know who I

am

I donrsquot dare to ask you this question

because I already know your answerhelliphelliphellip

13

Chapiter2 Childhood

ldquoDad I promise Irsquoll be a successful man

taking care of Mom and youhelliphellip so please

we have to leave the hospital with your

recoveryrdquo I said as holding my father

hands

ldquoNohelliphellipWilly I beg for your forgiveness I

havenrsquot taken the responsibility of taking

care of you and your momrdquo said my

father

Suddenly my tears trickled down both of

14

my cheeks I didnrsquot understand He was

such a nice person and he worked late

almost everyday Whenever I saw him he

looked tired and sleepy

ldquoAll right itrsquos time to go home Willyrdquo said

my mother And it was the last time I saw

my father

Afterwards everything changed I was

sent to an orphanage but I was not an

orphan ldquoWhere was my mom Did she

abandon me alreadyrdquo I asked the clerk

there

15

She smiled at me and said ldquoDonrsquot worry

wersquoll take care of yourdquo instead of

answering my question

What happened to me Me me

mehelliphelliphelliphelliphellip

I hate my mom Very much

I started to rebel the women taking care of

me over

there since

I didnrsquot like

them too

They didnrsquot tell me the truth even though

16

each of them knew Everyone was my

enemy Where were my friends

Finally I accidently met York and Harry

They gave me a hand and shared their

story which was similar to mine From

then on we became essential for one

another Wherever we went we were

together

ldquoI donrsquot want to stay here any longer Just

think we have to be here until 20 It sucks

I want a life more interesting and exciting

I have a planhelliphellipIrsquom gonna open an ice

17

cream parlor If you two agree we can

leave tonightrdquo said York

ldquoButhellipwhat about moneyrdquo I asked

ldquoDonrsquot worry I will bring all my money It

will be enough By the way we can find

your motherrdquo

ldquoPlease donrsquot mention her Ok Irsquoll go with

you How about you Harryrdquo

ldquoOf course we are essential for one

anotherrdquo

ldquoYes We arerdquo York and I said

We left for another city and started our

18

new business The

name of our parlor was

called ldquoWHY ice creamrdquo

because WHY stands

for us three --- Willy

Harry and York

-------------------------------------------------------

I didnrsquot know how you have been

regarding me I justhellipI justhellipI had

something untold to inform you When

could I see you again I totally had no

idea What I wanted to say was that I did

19

this for some reasons Would you forgive

me Would you Whenever I saw Lisa I

thought of you What were you doing now

Did you have a better life now Did you

take good care of yourself I went to the

orphanage yesterday but they said you

were gone where did you leave for Why

did you leave The clerks there didnrsquot

treat you well Andhellipwere you safe now I

asked your aunt your teachershellipand none

of them saw you Where did you go No

matter what I would find you in the end

20

Sorry and I would give you a hand if

necessary Wait for me

21

This love is difficult but its real

Dont be afraid well make it out of this mess

Its a love story baby just say yes

ldquoThis song is also for my lovely Cherry

the luckiest thing in my life is I met her Itrsquos

enough for me the rest of life staying with

her come here honeyrdquo I said trying to

36

give her a hug

The audience was whistling and we were

smiling at each other But Unfortunately I

didnrsquot win anything from competition

Some people said that it was because the

judges didnrsquot like the competitors talking

too much on stage about something

useless and unnecessary

Luckily I didnrsquot know if it was because of

my lucky star Cherry or not Someone

loved my voice very much and decided to

give her savings about NT$100000

37

I wondered who she was But that

benefactor didnrsquot want me to know

ldquoQuite strange huhrdquo I said

ldquoMaybe your voice touched her reached

the deepest part of her soul that nobody

touched before No matter what

congratulations Willy you did a great

jobrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I saw you on stage which was quite

touching I never imagined you would be

on stage and I would be the audience I

38

could tell you

loved your girl

very much

You looked like your father so muchhelliphellip

39

Chapiter5 Fact

I was really grateful for Cherry and the

nameless person They let me realize in

this world someone admired me Thatrsquos

why I was on the stage of Taiwanese top

singer Another reason was that I wanted

my mom to be regretful that she had

abandoned me before I wanted to show

her I was successful and no matter what

she said to me I wouldnrsquot admit she was

my mom

However three days later while I entered

40

the building of the competition I saw an

old woman lying on the floor in front of the

building

Suddenly I recognized that she was my

mom The one who I missed so much and

there was a letter in her hand

My dear Willy

I know you will never forgive me but there is

something I want to explain to you because

tomorrow my new husband and I will immigrate to

Canada This is the last time I will see your

performance The reason why I left you when you

41

were 15 is that your father was sick and the only

way to get the money for the operation was to

borrow from my manager I knew he liked me but

still I did it He said I didnrsquot have to pay him back

The only requirement was I had to stay with him

and take care of his daughter Linda and he

promised he would give you as much money as he

possibly could Like the competition in your

community the sponsor was him I knew it was my

fault to leave you but I had no more options Willy

I totally regret to do this action so since several

years ago I always followed you I tried to protect

42

you and knew what are you doing know Forgive

mom okay

This is my phone number Whenever you miss me

call me right away 0912345678

Always loving you

mom

looked tired and sleepy

my mother And it was the last time I saw

my father

Afterwards everything changed I was

sent to an orphanage but I was not an

orphan ldquoWhere was my mom Did she

abandon me alreadyrdquo I asked the clerk

there

each of them knew Everyone was my

enemy Where were my friends

Finally I accidently met York and Harry

They gave me a hand and shared their

story which was similar to mine From

then on we became essential for one

another Wherever we went we were

together

something untold to inform you When

could I see you again I totally had no

idea What I wanted to say was that I did

19

this for some reasons Would you forgive

thought of you What were you doing now

Did you have a better life now Did you

take good care of yourself I went to the

orphanage yesterday but they said you

21

Chapiter3 Relationship

After we have owned WHY ice cream for

four years Harry became a student of

interior design He discovered he had art

talent from designing and decorating our

ice cream parlor In order to become a

professional designer we collected all our

savings for him to study interior design

Recently I met a girl whose name was

Cherry Like fruit Cherry when she was

smiling my heart melted right away

22

Usually she came to our parlor every

afternoon

ldquoGood afternoon Miss which flavor would

you likerdquo

ldquoI donrsquot knowhelliphellipcould you choose one for

merdquo

ldquoSure no problem Ok here you are This

flavor is strawberryrdquo

This was the conversation the first time

we met each other Afterwards she came

everyday Little by little I knew more

about her She was a university student

23

nearby Freshman still Didnrsquot know too

much here I like to talk to her because no

matter what I said she was always

smiling

ldquoHow come you always choose strawberry

for merdquo she asked with curiosity

ldquoBecause you are sweet and fragile I

want to protect

yourdquo I answered

seriously

Both of us laughed

at the same time Not long after we

24

became girl and boy friends And of

course I knew much more about her She

loved playing the guitar she loved singing

her father was a teacher she had no

brothers or sisters and she loved me

ldquoHey Irsquom gonna practice my guitar with

my classmates wanna come with merdquo

Cherry asked

ldquoOhhelliphellipnohellipI donrsquot have any music talent

Itrsquos not for me I gotta gordquo

ldquoPleasehellipWilly I want your opinion about

something Next week is my year-end

25

evaluation I wanna do it well and perfect

pleasehelliprdquo

ldquoAll right all rightrdquo I replied unwillingly

She took a deep breath and said ldquoOk

now Ilsquom gonna sing lsquoLove Storyrsquo by Taylor

Swiftrdquo

We were both young when I

first saw you

I close my eyes

And the flashback starts

26

Im standing there

On a balcony of summer air

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

ldquoWell Cherry please stoprdquo I interrupted

ldquoWhatrdquo

ldquoI know I canrsquot give you any useful opinion

27

but what I wanna say is yoursquore not into this

songrdquo

ldquoWhat do you mean by thatrdquo

ldquoYou donrsquot know the meaning of the lyrics

do you When yoursquore singing I canrsquot feel

your emotionrdquo

ldquoEmotion emotionhelliphellipoh I see Irsquoll do it

better next time ok Letrsquos start againrdquo

However after singing the song several

times she was still confused I decided to

sing myself

28

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

That you were Romeo you were throwing

pebbles

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

And I was crying on the staircase

Begging you please dont go and I said

29

ldquoWilly how amazing You make me sad

by singingrdquo

ldquoSee I told you so Ok try it again

Cherryrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I never gave up looking for you HE

definitely helped me a lot and also asked

many people to find you Eventually we

found you

I knew you were falling in love with a girl

She was beautiful and elegant You were

quite lucky huh Recently you are

30

always practicing singing with her right

You have a talent for singing just like your

dad When we were at university he was

well-known because of his singing But

perhaps you didnrsquot notice that Maybe that

girl could help you further develop your

talent

31

Chapiter4 Thankful

One year later Cherry noticed an ad for a

singing competition in our community

ldquoYou should show your talent to the public

Willy you can do it I swearrdquo she said

ldquoWell I donrsquot know I donrsquot know if I can

sing well I havenrsquot got any training By the

way I donrsquot want to give up my businessrdquo

ldquoNo I didnrsquot ask you to give it up Therersquos

still York isnrsquot there Also I remember you

told me you wanted to open another one

32

right Itrsquos a great opportunity The grand

prize is a lot Why not try for itrdquo

Then because I couldnrsquot resist her

persuasion I took part in the competition

During the preparation she helped me a

lot and gave me plenty of suggestions I

could feel she really loved me Her

mid-term exam would be coming but she

never talked about the exam in front of me

She was happy to assist me to make my

dream come true I was so lucky she was

sohelliphellipperfect so kind so thoughtful

33

Therefore I didnrsquot want to let her down I

promised that I would do my best to win

the first prize

Cherry knew more about music and she

volunteered to be my keyboard player

ldquoWhich song would you like to sing for the

competitionrdquo she asked

ldquoOf course our first songmdashLove Storyrdquo

ldquoHello ehhelliphellipIrsquom Willy and this beautiful

girl is my keyboard player Well today

wersquore gonna sing Taylor Swiftrsquos Love

34

Story We hope you will enjoy itrdquo

Cause you were Romeo

I was a scarlet letter

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

But you were everything to me

I was begging you please dont go

And I said

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone

Ill be waiting all theres left to do is run

Youll be the prince and Ill be the princess

35

Its a love story baby just say yes

Romeo save me theyre trying to tell me how

to feel

This love is difficult but its real

Dont be afraid well make it out of this mess

Its a love story baby just say yes

ldquoThis song is also for my lovely Cherry

ldquoPleasehellipWilly I want your opinion about

pleasehelliprdquo

ldquoAll right all rightrdquo I replied unwillingly

She took a deep breath and said ldquoOk

now Ilsquom gonna sing lsquoLove Storyrsquo by Taylor

Swiftrdquo

We were both young when I

first saw you

I close my eyes

And the flashback starts

26

Im standing there

On a balcony of summer air

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

ldquoWell Cherry please stoprdquo I interrupted

ldquoWhatrdquo

ldquoI know I canrsquot give you any useful opinion

27

but what I wanna say is yoursquore not into this

songrdquo

ldquoWhat do you mean by thatrdquo

ldquoYou donrsquot know the meaning of the lyrics

do you When yoursquore singing I canrsquot feel

your emotionrdquo

ldquoEmotion emotionhelliphellipoh I see Irsquoll do it

better next time ok Letrsquos start againrdquo

However after singing the song several

times she was still confused I decided to

sing myself

28

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

That you were Romeo you were throwing

pebbles

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

And I was crying on the staircase

Begging you please dont go and I said

29

ldquoWilly how amazing You make me sad

by singingrdquo

ldquoSee I told you so Ok try it again

Cherryrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I never gave up looking for you HE

definitely helped me a lot and also asked

many people to find you Eventually we

found you

I knew you were falling in love with a girl

She was beautiful and elegant You were

quite lucky huh Recently you are

30

always practicing singing with her right

You have a talent for singing just like your

dad When we were at university he was

well-known because of his singing But

perhaps you didnrsquot notice that Maybe that

girl could help you further develop your

talent

31

Chapiter4 Thankful

One year later Cherry noticed an ad for a

singing competition in our community

ldquoYou should show your talent to the public

Willy you can do it I swearrdquo she said

ldquoWell I donrsquot know I donrsquot know if I can

sing well I havenrsquot got any training By the

way I donrsquot want to give up my businessrdquo

ldquoNo I didnrsquot ask you to give it up Therersquos

still York isnrsquot there Also I remember you

told me you wanted to open another one

32

right Itrsquos a great opportunity The grand

prize is a lot Why not try for itrdquo

Then because I couldnrsquot resist her

persuasion I took part in the competition

During the preparation she helped me a

lot and gave me plenty of suggestions I

could feel she really loved me Her

mid-term exam would be coming but she

never talked about the exam in front of me

She was happy to assist me to make my

dream come true I was so lucky she was

sohelliphellipperfect so kind so thoughtful

33

Therefore I didnrsquot want to let her down I

promised that I would do my best to win

the first prize

Cherry knew more about music and she

volunteered to be my keyboard player

ldquoWhich song would you like to sing for the

competitionrdquo she asked

ldquoOf course our first songmdashLove Storyrdquo

ldquoHello ehhelliphellipIrsquom Willy and this beautiful

girl is my keyboard player Well today

wersquore gonna sing Taylor Swiftrsquos Love

34

Story We hope you will enjoy itrdquo

Cause you were Romeo

I was a scarlet letter

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

But you were everything to me

I was begging you please dont go

And I said

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone

Ill be waiting all theres left to do is run

Youll be the prince and Ill be the princess

35

Its a love story baby just say yes

Romeo save me theyre trying to tell me how

to feel

This love is difficult but its real

Dont be afraid well make it out of this mess

Its a love story baby just say yes

ldquoThis song is also for my lovely Cherry

the luckiest thing in my life is I met her Itrsquos

enough for me the rest of life staying with

her come here honeyrdquo I said trying to

36

give her a hug

The audience was whistling and we were

smiling at each other But Unfortunately I

didnrsquot win anything from competition

Some people said that it was because the

judges didnrsquot like the competitors talking

too much on stage about something

useless and unnecessary

Luckily I didnrsquot know if it was because of

my lucky star Cherry or not Someone

loved my voice very much and decided to

give her savings about NT$100000

37

I wondered who she was But that

benefactor didnrsquot want me to know

ldquoQuite strange huhrdquo I said

ldquoMaybe your voice touched her reached

the deepest part of her soul that nobody

touched before No matter what

congratulations Willy you did a great

jobrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I saw you on stage which was quite

touching I never imagined you would be

on stage and I would be the audience I

38

could tell you

loved your girl

very much

You looked like your father so muchhelliphellip

39

Chapiter5 Fact

I was really grateful for Cherry and the

nameless person They let me realize in

this world someone admired me Thatrsquos

why I was on the stage of Taiwanese top

singer Another reason was that I wanted

my mom to be regretful that she had

abandoned me before I wanted to show

her I was successful and no matter what

she said to me I wouldnrsquot admit she was

my mom

However three days later while I entered

40

the building of the competition I saw an

old woman lying on the floor in front of the

building

Suddenly I recognized that she was my

mom The one who I missed so much and

there was a letter in her hand

My dear Willy

I know you will never forgive me but there is

something I want to explain to you because

tomorrow my new husband and I will immigrate to

Canada This is the last time I will see your

performance The reason why I left you when you

41

were 15 is that your father was sick and the only

way to get the money for the operation was to

borrow from my manager I knew he liked me but

still I did it He said I didnrsquot have to pay him back

The only requirement was I had to stay with him

and take care of his daughter Linda and he

promised he would give you as much money as he

possibly could Like the competition in your

community the sponsor was him I knew it was my

fault to leave you but I had no more options Willy

I totally regret to do this action so since several

years ago I always followed you I tried to protect

42

you and knew what are you doing know Forgive

mom okay

This is my phone number Whenever you miss me

call me right away 0912345678

Always loving you

mom

Chapiter3 Relationship

After we have owned WHY ice cream for

four years Harry became a student of

interior design He discovered he had art

talent from designing and decorating our

ice cream parlor In order to become a

professional designer we collected all our

savings for him to study interior design

Recently I met a girl whose name was

Cherry Like fruit Cherry when she was

smiling my heart melted right away

22

Usually she came to our parlor every

afternoon

ldquoGood afternoon Miss which flavor would

you likerdquo

ldquoI donrsquot knowhelliphellipcould you choose one for

merdquo

ldquoSure no problem Ok here you are This

flavor is strawberryrdquo

This was the conversation the first time

we met each other Afterwards she came

everyday Little by little I knew more

about her She was a university student

23

nearby Freshman still Didnrsquot know too

much here I like to talk to her because no

matter what I said she was always

smiling

ldquoHow come you always choose strawberry

for merdquo she asked with curiosity

ldquoBecause you are sweet and fragile I

want to protect

yourdquo I answered

seriously

Both of us laughed

at the same time Not long after we

24

became girl and boy friends And of

course I knew much more about her She

loved playing the guitar she loved singing

her father was a teacher she had no

brothers or sisters and she loved me

ldquoHey Irsquom gonna practice my guitar with

my classmates wanna come with merdquo

my classmates wanna come with merdquo

Cherry asked

ldquoOhhelliphellipnohellipI donrsquot have any music talent

Itrsquos not for me I gotta gordquo

ldquoPleasehellipWilly I want your opinion about

something Next week is my year-end

25

evaluation I wanna do it well and perfect

pleasehelliprdquo

ldquoAll right all rightrdquo I replied unwillingly

She took a deep breath and said ldquoOk

now Ilsquom gonna sing lsquoLove Storyrsquo by Taylor

Swiftrdquo

We were both young when I

first saw you

I close my eyes

And the flashback starts

26

Im standing there

On a balcony of summer air

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

ldquoWell Cherry please stoprdquo I interrupted

ldquoWhatrdquo

ldquoI know I canrsquot give you any useful opinion

27

but what I wanna say is yoursquore not into this

songrdquo

ldquoWhat do you mean by thatrdquo

ldquoYou donrsquot know the meaning of the lyrics

do you When yoursquore singing I canrsquot feel

your emotionrdquo

ldquoEmotion emotionhelliphellipoh I see Irsquoll do it

better next time ok Letrsquos start againrdquo

However after singing the song several

times she was still confused I decided to

sing myself

28

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

That you were Romeo you were throwing

pebbles

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

And I was crying on the staircase

Begging you please dont go and I said

29

ldquoWilly how amazing You make me sad

by singingrdquo

ldquoSee I told you so Ok try it again

Cherryrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I never gave up looking for you HE

definitely helped me a lot and also asked

many people to find you Eventually we

found you

I knew you were falling in love with a girl

She was beautiful and elegant You were

quite lucky huh Recently you are

30

always practicing singing with her right

You have a talent for singing just like your

dad When we were at university he was

well-known because of his singing But

perhaps you didnrsquot notice that Maybe that

girl could help you further develop your

talent

31

Chapiter4 Thankful

One year later Cherry noticed an ad for a

singing competition in our community

ldquoYou should show your talent to the public

Willy you can do it I swearrdquo she said

ldquoWell I donrsquot know I donrsquot know if I can

sing well I havenrsquot got any training By the

way I donrsquot want to give up my businessrdquo

ldquoNo I didnrsquot ask you to give it up Therersquos

still York isnrsquot there Also I remember you

told me you wanted to open another one

32

right Itrsquos a great opportunity The grand

prize is a lot Why not try for itrdquo

Then because I couldnrsquot resist her

persuasion I took part in the competition

During the preparation she helped me a

lot and gave me plenty of suggestions I

could feel she really loved me Her

mid-term exam would be coming but she

never talked about the exam in front of me

She was happy to assist me to make my

dream come true I was so lucky she was

sohelliphellipperfect so kind so thoughtful

33

Therefore I didnrsquot want to let her down I

promised that I would do my best to win

the first prize

Cherry knew more about music and she

volunteered to be my keyboard player

ldquoWhich song would you like to sing for the

competitionrdquo she asked

ldquoOf course our first songmdashLove Storyrdquo

ldquoHello ehhelliphellipIrsquom Willy and this beautiful

girl is my keyboard player Well today

wersquore gonna sing Taylor Swiftrsquos Love

34

Story We hope you will enjoy itrdquo

Cause you were Romeo

I was a scarlet letter

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

But you were everything to me

I was begging you please dont go

And I said

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone

Ill be waiting all theres left to do is run

Youll be the prince and Ill be the princess

35

Its a love story baby just say yes

Romeo save me theyre trying to tell me how

to feel

This love is difficult but its real

Dont be afraid well make it out of this mess

Its a love story baby just say yes

ldquoThis song is also for my lovely Cherry

the luckiest thing in my life is I met her Itrsquos

enough for me the rest of life staying with

her come here honeyrdquo I said trying to

36

give her a hug

The audience was whistling and we were

smiling at each other But Unfortunately I

didnrsquot win anything from competition

Some people said that it was because the

judges didnrsquot like the competitors talking

too much on stage about something

useless and unnecessary

Luckily I didnrsquot know if it was because of

my lucky star Cherry or not Someone

loved my voice very much and decided to

give her savings about NT$100000

37

I wondered who she was But that

benefactor didnrsquot want me to know

ldquoQuite strange huhrdquo I said

ldquoMaybe your voice touched her reached

the deepest part of her soul that nobody

touched before No matter what

congratulations Willy you did a great

jobrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I saw you on stage which was quite

touching I never imagined you would be

on stage and I would be the audience I

38

could tell you

loved your girl

very much

You looked like your father so muchhelliphellip

39

Chapiter5 Fact

I was really grateful for Cherry and the

nameless person They let me realize in

this world someone admired me Thatrsquos

why I was on the stage of Taiwanese top

singer Another reason was that I wanted

my mom to be regretful that she had

abandoned me before I wanted to show

her I was successful and no matter what

she said to me I wouldnrsquot admit she was

my mom

However three days later while I entered

40

the building of the competition I saw an

old woman lying on the floor in front of the

building

Suddenly I recognized that she was my

mom The one who I missed so much and

there was a letter in her hand

My dear Willy

I know you will never forgive me but there is

something I want to explain to you because

tomorrow my new husband and I will immigrate to

Canada This is the last time I will see your

performance The reason why I left you when you

41

were 15 is that your father was sick and the only

way to get the money for the operation was to

borrow from my manager I knew he liked me but

still I did it He said I didnrsquot have to pay him back

The only requirement was I had to stay with him

and take care of his daughter Linda and he

promised he would give you as much money as he

possibly could Like the competition in your

community the sponsor was him I knew it was my

fault to leave you but I had no more options Willy

I totally regret to do this action so since several

years ago I always followed you I tried to protect

42

you and knew what are you doing know Forgive

mom okay

This is my phone number Whenever you miss me

call me right away 0912345678

Always loving you

mom

Chapiter3 Relationship

After we have owned WHY ice cream for

four years Harry became a student of

interior design He discovered he had art

talent from designing and decorating our

ice cream parlor In order to become a

professional designer we collected all our

savings for him to study interior design

Recently I met a girl whose name was

Cherry Like fruit Cherry when she was

smiling my heart melted right away

22

Usually she came to our parlor every

afternoon

ldquoGood afternoon Miss which flavor would

you likerdquo

ldquoI donrsquot knowhelliphellipcould you choose one for

merdquo

ldquoSure no problem Ok here you are This

flavor is strawberryrdquo

This was the conversation the first time

we met each other Afterwards she came

everyday Little by little I knew more

about her She was a university student

23

nearby Freshman still Didnrsquot know too

much here I like to talk to her because no

matter what I said she was always

smiling

ldquoHow come you always choose strawberry

for merdquo she asked with curiosity

ldquoBecause you are sweet and fragile I

want to protect

yourdquo I answered

seriously

Both of us laughed

at the same time Not long after we

24

became girl and boy friends And of

course I knew much more about her She

loved playing the guitar she loved singing

her father was a teacher she had no

brothers or sisters and she loved me

could feel she really loved me Her

mid-term exam would be coming but she

never talked about the exam in front of me

She was happy to assist me to make my

dream come true I was so lucky she was

sohelliphellipperfect so kind so thoughtful

33

Therefore I didnrsquot want to let her down I

promised that I would do my best to win

the first prize

Cherry knew more about music and she

volunteered to be my keyboard player

ldquoWhich song would you like to sing for the

competitionrdquo she asked

ldquoOf course our first songmdashLove Storyrdquo

ldquoHello ehhelliphellipIrsquom Willy and this beautiful

girl is my keyboard player Well today

wersquore gonna sing Taylor Swiftrsquos Love

34

Story We hope you will enjoy itrdquo

Cause you were Romeo

I was a scarlet letter

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

But you were everything to me

I was begging you please dont go

And I said

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone

Ill be waiting all theres left to do is run

Youll be the prince and Ill be the princess

35

Its a love story baby just say yes

Romeo save me theyre trying to tell me how

to feel

This love is difficult but its real

Dont be afraid well make it out of this mess

Its a love story baby just say yes

ldquoThis song is also for my lovely Cherry

the luckiest thing in my life is I met her Itrsquos

enough for me the rest of life staying with

her come here honeyrdquo I said trying to

36

give her a hug

The audience was whistling and we were

smiling at each other But Unfortunately I

didnrsquot win anything from competition

Some people said that it was because the

judges didnrsquot like the competitors talking

too much on stage about something

useless and unnecessary

Luckily I didnrsquot know if it was because of

my lucky star Cherry or not Someone

loved my voice very much and decided to

give her savings about NT$100000

37

I wondered who she was But that

benefactor didnrsquot want me to know

ldquoQuite strange huhrdquo I said

ldquoMaybe your voice touched her reached

the deepest part of her soul that nobody

touched before No matter what

congratulations Willy you did a great

jobrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I saw you on stage which was quite

touching I never imagined you would be

on stage and I would be the audience I

38

could tell you

loved your girl

very much

You looked like your father so muchhelliphellip

39

Chapiter5 Fact

I was really grateful for Cherry and the

nameless person They let me realize in

this world someone admired me Thatrsquos

why I was on the stage of Taiwanese top

singer Another reason was that I wanted

my mom to be regretful that she had

abandoned me before I wanted to show

her I was successful and no matter what

she said to me I wouldnrsquot admit she was

my mom

However three days later while I entered

40

the building of the competition I saw an

old woman lying on the floor in front of the

building

Suddenly I recognized that she was my

mom The one who I missed so much and

there was a letter in her hand

My dear Willy

I know you will never forgive me but there is

something I want to explain to you because

tomorrow my new husband and I will immigrate to

Canada This is the last time I will see your

performance The reason why I left you when you

41

were 15 is that your father was sick and the only

way to get the money for the operation was to

borrow from my manager I knew he liked me but

still I did it He said I didnrsquot have to pay him back

The only requirement was I had to stay with him

and take care of his daughter Linda and he

promised he would give you as much money as he

possibly could Like the competition in your

community the sponsor was him I knew it was my

fault to leave you but I had no more options Willy

I totally regret to do this action so since several

years ago I always followed you I tried to protect

42

you and knew what are you doing know Forgive

mom okay

This is my phone number Whenever you miss me

call me right away 0912345678

Always loving you

mom

nearby Freshman still Didnrsquot know too

much here I like to talk to her because no

matter what I said she was always

smiling

ldquoHow come you always choose strawberry

for merdquo she asked with curiosity

ldquoBecause you are sweet and fragile I

want to protect

yourdquo I answered

seriously

Both of us laughed

at the same time Not long after we

24

became girl and boy friends And of

course I knew much more about her She

loved playing the guitar she loved singing

her father was a teacher she had no

brothers or sisters and she loved me

ldquoHey Irsquom gonna practice my guitar with

my classmates wanna come with merdquo

Cherry asked

ldquoOhhelliphellipnohellipI donrsquot have any music talent

Itrsquos not for me I gotta gordquo

ldquoPleasehellipWilly I want your opinion about

something Next week is my year-end

25

evaluation I wanna do it well and perfect

pleasehelliprdquo

ldquoAll right all rightrdquo I replied unwillingly

She took a deep breath and said ldquoOk

now Ilsquom gonna sing lsquoLove Storyrsquo by Taylor

Swiftrdquo

We were both young when I

first saw you

I close my eyes

And the flashback starts

26

Im standing there

On a balcony of summer air

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

ldquoWell Cherry please stoprdquo I interrupted

ldquoWhatrdquo

ldquoI know I canrsquot give you any useful opinion

27

but what I wanna say is yoursquore not into this

songrdquo

ldquoWhat do you mean by thatrdquo

ldquoYou donrsquot know the meaning of the lyrics

do you When yoursquore singing I canrsquot feel

your emotionrdquo

ldquoEmotion emotionhelliphellipoh I see Irsquoll do it

better next time ok Letrsquos start againrdquo

However after singing the song several

times she was still confused I decided to

sing myself

28

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

That you were Romeo you were throwing

pebbles

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

And I was crying on the staircase

Begging you please dont go and I said

29

ldquoWilly how amazing You make me sad

by singingrdquo

ldquoSee I told you so Ok try it again

Cherryrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I never gave up looking for you HE

definitely helped me a lot and also asked

many people to find you Eventually we

found you

I knew you were falling in love with a girl

She was beautiful and elegant You were

quite lucky huh Recently you are

30

always practicing singing with her right

You have a talent for singing just like your

dad When we were at university he was

well-known because of his singing But

perhaps you didnrsquot notice that Maybe that

girl could help you further develop your

talent

31

Chapiter4 Thankful

One year later Cherry noticed an ad for a

singing competition in our community

ldquoYou should show your talent to the public

Willy you can do it I swearrdquo she said

ldquoWell I donrsquot know I donrsquot know if I can

sing well I havenrsquot got any training By the

way I donrsquot want to give up my businessrdquo

ldquoNo I didnrsquot ask you to give it up Therersquos

still York isnrsquot there Also I remember you

told me you wanted to open another one

32

right Itrsquos a great opportunity The grand

prize is a lot Why not try for itrdquo

Then because I couldnrsquot resist her

persuasion I took part in the competition

During the preparation she helped me a

lot and gave me plenty of suggestions I

could feel she really loved me Her

mid-term exam would be coming but she

never talked about the exam in front of me

girl could help you further develop your

talent

31

Chapiter4 Thankful

One year later Cherry noticed an ad for a

singing competition in our community

ldquoYou should show your talent to the public

Willy you can do it I swearrdquo she said

ldquoWell I donrsquot know I donrsquot know if I can

sing well I havenrsquot got any training By the

way I donrsquot want to give up my businessrdquo

ldquoNo I didnrsquot ask you to give it up Therersquos

still York isnrsquot there Also I remember you

told me you wanted to open another one

32

right Itrsquos a great opportunity The grand

prize is a lot Why not try for itrdquo

Then because I couldnrsquot resist her

persuasion I took part in the competition

During the preparation she helped me a

lot and gave me plenty of suggestions I

could feel she really loved me Her

mid-term exam would be coming but she

never talked about the exam in front of me

She was happy to assist me to make my

dream come true I was so lucky she was

sohelliphellipperfect so kind so thoughtful

33

Therefore I didnrsquot want to let her down I

promised that I would do my best to win

the first prize

Cherry knew more about music and she

volunteered to be my keyboard player

ldquoWhich song would you like to sing for the

competitionrdquo she asked

ldquoOf course our first songmdashLove Storyrdquo

ldquoHello ehhelliphellipIrsquom Willy and this beautiful

girl is my keyboard player Well today

wersquore gonna sing Taylor Swiftrsquos Love

34

Story We hope you will enjoy itrdquo

Cause you were Romeo

I was a scarlet letter

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

But you were everything to me

I was begging you please dont go

And I said

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone

Ill be waiting all theres left to do is run

Youll be the prince and Ill be the princess

35

Its a love story baby just say yes

Romeo save me theyre trying to tell me how

to feel

This love is difficult but its real

Dont be afraid well make it out of this mess

Its a love story baby just say yes

ldquoThis song is also for my lovely Cherry

the luckiest thing in my life is I met her Itrsquos

enough for me the rest of life staying with

her come here honeyrdquo I said trying to

36

give her a hug

The audience was whistling and we were

smiling at each other But Unfortunately I

didnrsquot win anything from competition

Some people said that it was because the

judges didnrsquot like the competitors talking

too much on stage about something

useless and unnecessary

Luckily I didnrsquot know if it was because of

my lucky star Cherry or not Someone

loved my voice very much and decided to

give her savings about NT$100000

37

I wondered who she was But that

benefactor didnrsquot want me to know

ldquoQuite strange huhrdquo I said

ldquoMaybe your voice touched her reached

the deepest part of her soul that nobody

touched before No matter what

congratulations Willy you did a great

jobrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I saw you on stage which was quite

touching I never imagined you would be

on stage and I would be the audience I

38

could tell you

loved your girl

very much

You looked like your father so muchhelliphellip

39

Chapiter5 Fact

I was really grateful for Cherry and the

nameless person They let me realize in

this world someone admired me Thatrsquos

why I was on the stage of Taiwanese top

singer Another reason was that I wanted

my mom to be regretful that she had

abandoned me before I wanted to show

her I was successful and no matter what

she said to me I wouldnrsquot admit she was

my mom

However three days later while I entered

40

the building of the competition I saw an

old woman lying on the floor in front of the

building

Suddenly I recognized that she was my

mom The one who I missed so much and

there was a letter in her hand

My dear Willy

I know you will never forgive me but there is

something I want to explain to you because

tomorrow my new husband and I will immigrate to

Canada This is the last time I will see your

performance The reason why I left you when you

41

were 15 is that your father was sick and the only

way to get the money for the operation was to

borrow from my manager I knew he liked me but

still I did it He said I didnrsquot have to pay him back

The only requirement was I had to stay with him

and take care of his daughter Linda and he

promised he would give you as much money as he

possibly could Like the competition in your

community the sponsor was him I knew it was my

fault to leave you but I had no more options Willy

I totally regret to do this action so since several

years ago I always followed you I tried to protect

42

you and knew what are you doing know Forgive

mom okay

This is my phone number Whenever you miss me

call me right away 0912345678

Always loving you

mom

ldquoWhat do you mean by thatrdquo

ldquoYou donrsquot know the meaning of the lyrics

do you When yoursquore singing I canrsquot feel

your emotionrdquo

ldquoEmotion emotionhelliphellipoh I see Irsquoll do it

However after singing the song several

times she was still confused I decided to

sing myself

See the lights

See the party the ball gowns

I see you make your way through the crowd

You say hello

Little did I know

That you were Romeo you were throwing

pebbles

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

And I was crying on the staircase

Begging you please dont go and I said

29

ldquoWilly how amazing You make me sad

by singingrdquo

ldquoSee I told you so Ok try it again

Cherryrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I never gave up looking for you HE

definitely helped me a lot and also asked

many people to find you Eventually we

found you

I knew you were falling in love with a girl

She was beautiful and elegant You were

quite lucky huh Recently you are

Chapiter4 Thankful

One year later Cherry noticed an ad for a

singing competition in our community

ldquoYou should show your talent to the public

Willy you can do it I swearrdquo she said

ldquoWell I donrsquot know I donrsquot know if I can

sing well I havenrsquot got any training By the

way I donrsquot want to give up my businessrdquo

ldquoNo I didnrsquot ask you to give it up Therersquos

still York isnrsquot there Also I remember you

told me you wanted to open another one

32

right Itrsquos a great opportunity The grand

prize is a lot Why not try for itrdquo

Then because I couldnrsquot resist her

persuasion I took part in the competition

During the preparation she helped me a

lot and gave me plenty of suggestions I

could feel she really loved me Her

mid-term exam would be coming but she

never talked about the exam in front of me

She was happy to assist me to make my

dream come true I was so lucky she was

sohelliphellipperfect so kind so thoughtful

33

Therefore I didnrsquot want to let her down I

promised that I would do my best to win

the first prize

Cherry knew more about music and she

volunteered to be my keyboard player

ldquoWhich song would you like to sing for the

competitionrdquo she asked

ldquoOf course our first songmdashLove Storyrdquo

ldquoHello ehhelliphellipIrsquom Willy and this beautiful

girl is my keyboard player Well today

wersquore gonna sing Taylor Swiftrsquos Love

34

Story We hope you will enjoy itrdquo

Cause you were Romeo

I was a scarlet letter

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

But you were everything to me

I was begging you please dont go

And I said

Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone

Ill be waiting all theres left to do is run

Youll be the prince and Ill be the princess

35

Its a love story baby just say yes

Romeo save me theyre trying to tell me how

to feel

This love is difficult but its real

Dont be afraid well make it out of this mess

Its a love story baby just say yes

ldquoThis song is also for my lovely Cherry

the luckiest thing in my life is I met her Itrsquos

enough for me the rest of life staying with

her come here honeyrdquo I said trying to

36

give her a hug

The audience was whistling and we were

smiling at each other But Unfortunately I

didnrsquot win anything from competition

Some people said that it was because the

judges didnrsquot like the competitors talking

too much on stage about something

useless and unnecessary

Luckily I didnrsquot know if it was because of

my lucky star Cherry or not Someone

loved my voice very much and decided to

give her savings about NT$100000

37

I wondered who she was But that

benefactor didnrsquot want me to know

ldquoQuite strange huhrdquo I said

ldquoMaybe your voice touched her reached

the deepest part of her soul that nobody

touched before No matter what

congratulations Willy you did a great

jobrdquo

-------------------------------------------------------

I saw you on stage which was quite

touching I never imagined you would be

on stage and I would be the audience I

38

could tell you

loved your girl

very much

You looked like your father so muchhelliphellip

39

Chapiter5 Fact

I was really grateful for Cherry and the

nameless person They let me realize in

this world someone admired me Thatrsquos

why I was on the stage of Taiwanese top

singer Another reason was that I wanted

my mom to be regretful that she had

abandoned me before I wanted to show

her I was successful and no matter what

she said to me I wouldnrsquot admit she was

my mom

However three days later while I entered

40

the building of the competition I saw an

old woman lying on the floor in front of the

building

Suddenly I recognized that she was my

mom The one who I missed so much and

there was a letter in her hand

My dear Willy

I know you will never forgive me but there is

something I want to explain to you because

tomorrow my new husband and I will immigrate to

Canada This is the last time I will see your

performance The reason why I left you when you

41

were 15 is that your father was sick and the only

way to get the money for the operation was to

borrow from my manager I knew he liked me but

still I did it He said I didnrsquot have to pay him back

The only requirement was I had to stay with him

and take care of his daughter Linda and he

promised he would give you as much money as he

possibly could Like the competition in your

community the sponsor was him I knew it was my

fault to leave you but I had no more options Willy

I totally regret to do this action so since several

years ago I always followed you I tried to protect

42

you and knew what are you doing know Forgive

mom okay

This is my phone number Whenever you miss me

call me right away 0912345678

Always loving you

mom

Chapiter5 Fact

I was really grateful for Cherry and the

nameless person They let me realize in

this world someone admired me Thatrsquos

why I was on the stage of Taiwanese top

singer Another reason was that I wanted

my mom to be regretful that she had

abandoned me before I wanted to show

her I was successful and no matter what

she said to me I wouldnrsquot admit she was

my mom

However three days later while I entered

40

the building of the competition I saw an

old woman lying on the floor in front of the

building

Suddenly I recognized that she was my

mom The one who I missed so much and

there was a letter in her hand

My dear Willy

I know you will never forgive me but there is

something I want to explain to you because

tomorrow my new husband and I will immigrate to

Canada This is the last time I will see your

performance The reason why I left you when you

41

were 15 is that your father was sick and the only

way to get the money for the operation was to

borrow from my manager I knew he liked me but

still I did it He said I didnrsquot have to pay him back

The only requirement was I had to stay with him

and take care of his daughter Linda and he

promised he would give you as much money as he

possibly could Like the competition in your

community the sponsor was him I knew it was my

fault to leave you but I had no more options Willy

I totally regret to do this action so since several

years ago I always followed you I tried to protect

42

you and knew what are you doing know Forgive

mom okay

This is my phone number Whenever you miss me

call me right away 0912345678

Always loving you
