Crystal's point of view.
Well, we're now in Charlotte. I'm back stage helping Mom make sure that all
the equipment etc. is set up and ready for tonight. Tay is there too with his
brothers. They are waiting to do the sound check. I see my Mom talking to Justin,
the road manager. She's laughing at something he said. I think he likes my Mom.
But, I don't want my Mom going out with anyone. I guess I still want my Dad and
my Mom to get back together someday. I walk up to them and hear Justin saying
"Would you like to go to dinner with me tomorrow night?"
"Um" my Mom says, "Ok I'd love to".
I turn white. I run back stage trying to stop the tears that are forming. I hear my
Mom yell "Crystal!" and she runs after me. Taylor, who I guess also saw me run
out says to my Mom, "May I talk to her?" My Mom nods her head and leaves
us alone.
Taylor puts his arms around me and lets me cry into his shirt.
"Do you want to talk about it?" he asks me.
"It's not that I don't like Justin. It's just that guess I was hoping that my parents
would get back together" I tell them.
"How long have they been divorced?" He asks me.
"Five years. They said that they fell out of love with each other."
"You know that they still love you and that you can still be a family even though they
are divorced don't you?" He asks me. I shake my head yes.
"Don't you want your Mom to be happy?"
"Yes" I say, "I wish it were with my dad but I know that won't happen. I'm going to
find my Mom and apologize to her."
"Good" He gives me a hug and wipes the tears from my eyes. Then he smiles at
me. I smile back. Then I leave to find my Mom. I'll apologize and tell her to go
out with Justin.
