Chapter 26: The impossible
"Where is she?" mom asked looking through the crowd once again.
I was back stage, I heard the guy say "Ladies and gentlemen our one and only Prue Halliwell" then the curtains opened. I walked up to the microphone.
"Hello everyone as some of you know I was adopted, my parents died two years ago today. My Brother Matt finally came back from the war he just found out they died. My mother as you all know owns this club.
I'd like to apologise to you mom, dad, and the rest of my family for running out on you earlier but I had to think by myself for I while.
Now I'd like to call my brother Matt up here." I said looking at Matt.
"What? Prue NO!" he said.
"Aw come on Matt Dad would have loved seeing us up here together." I said and then he got up and came to the stage.
"Fine but I get I'm not singing I'll just play the guitar," he said.
"Everyone this was a song I wrote it was our dad's favourite song, and it sort of reminds me of what our family went through. This was my first song" I said.
"My dad chased monsters from the dark
He checked underneath my bed
He could lift me with one arm
Way up over top his head
He could loosen rusty bolts
with a quick turn of his wrench
He pulled splinters from his hand
Never even flinched
In thirteen years I'd never seen him cry
But the day that grandpa died, I realized
Unsinkable ships, sink
Unbreakable walls, break
Sometimes the things you think would never happen
Happens just like that
Unbendable steel, bends
If the fury of the wind is unstoppable
I've learned to never underestimate
The impossible
And then there was my junior year
Billy had a brand new car
It was late, the road was wet
I guess the curves was just too sharp
I walked away without a scratch
They brought the helicopter in
And Billy couldn't feel his legs
Said he'd never walk again
But Billy said he would and his mom and daddy prayed
And the day we graduated, he stood up to say:
Unsinkable ships, sink
Unbreakable walls, break
Sometimes the things you think would never happen
Happens just like that
Unbendable steel, bends
If the fury of the wind is unstoppable
I've learned to never underestimate
The impossible
So don't tell me that it's over
Don't give up on you and me
'Cos there's no such thing as hopeless
If you believe:
Unsinkable ships, sink
Unbreakable walls, break
Sometimes the things you think would never happen
Happens just like that
Unbendable steel, bends
If the fury of the wind is unstoppable
I've learned to never underestimate
The impossible" I sang as Matt played the acoustic.
The crowd clapped and whistled.
