"So Callie, what instrument do you play?" Brandon asked her as other students enter the hall

"Well I like playing the guitar," she started saying looking at Brandon's expression that became sadder for no reason known to Callie

"Oh, Mr. Hopkins is a great teacher, you're going to like his classes," Brandon said, pointing out the guitar room.

"Oh well good, but I'm actually here because my piano teacher had personal problems and can't follow me anymore," as Callie's words left her mouth, Brandon's smile grow bigger.

"Well that's great, we are actually going to be classmates since I'm a pianist too," he said excited.

"Oh, that's good, I'm glad I found a classmates already."

It was very easy to talk to each other as if they knew each other for a long time; they talked about everything and nothing at the same time. They lost sight of time, soon a few teacher came out to divide them by instrument.

"Katie Marie BelMonte, George De Santis, Brandon Foster, Maxine Rossi and Callie Quinn, please follow Mr. Johnson, he will be your piano teacher," a woman dressed in black said as she pointed a man standing next to her.

The teacher looked young to be a professor, but then her dad assured her that this place had the best so maybe he was a great young pianist on a break.

They followed the men inside a big room with a beautiful grand piano like the one Callie used to practice on in her home, surrounded by a few other console pianos. After the brief introductions the class began and Callie couldn't help but feel bored; she kept looking around, to Brandon and the others, sometimes to the teacher. This class, was not what she expected, they were doing simple exercise and Callie was so frustrated, maybe her mom was right, she wasn't used to share the attention of her teacher with other, she was bored because this thing was like a joke to her.

She spent the whole lessons thinking of other things, hopping for the time to go faster.

In the meanwhile Max was in his office, seated in front of him a very stunned Robert who couldn't fandom how fate had such a strange sense of humor.

"It's incredible dad, I could have never imagine something like that might happen" Robert said looking down the papers his father had handled to him.

"Well neither could I, but here we are," he responded taking a sip of his tea.

"Donald Jacobs was very drunk, he got himself, his wife Coleen and other people involved in an accident that made several victims," Robert summarize the papers in front of him.

"Yes, and among them, Coleen," Max said with a smile, because finally that gold-digger was out of the picture forever

Robert was petrified, Coleen was there, in the same place as Callie, but she died, and his little girl didn't, he was very conflicted about his feelings, he loved Coleen like never before, but he also loves his family, Jill, Sophia and most importantly Callie.

"Well, at least that so called of a man kept his promises, he kept Coleen away from us," Max said quite satisfy.

"I guess," Robert responded as he put the files back in front of his father.

"Maybe it was a coincidence that Callie and Christine were run over by the Jacobs, don't put too much effort thinking over things. Relax, everything is fine, Donald is going in prison, Coleen in a cemetery and their son in the foster system," Max said as he took the last sip from his cup.

"They had a son?" Robert asked quite surprise, stopping in front of the big window overlooking the city.

"Oh yes, a certain Jude Jacobs, a few years younger than Callie and Sophia I believe" Max said.

"What will happen to him?" Robert asked curious about the child's future.

"He's going into the foster system, what else with a father in jail and a dead mother. Now let's talk about something else, the Mariano's project, how is that going on?" Max said as he trashed the papers related to the Jacobs.

Two hours later, the classes ended, much to Callie's relief.

"So, how did you find the lessons here?" Brandon said as they exited the room.

"Well, it was pretty boring to be fair, I didn't expect it to be so lame," she answered, eager to go home so that maybe she could talk to her mom, maybe stopping her lessons as she found them so boring.

"Well, it was the first lesson, don't worry, we play a lot here especially for competitions," he said with a smile.

"Competitions?" Callie asked surprised

"Yes, music competitions," he said "We practice a lot for competitions, the teacher here are good and we usually place ourselves in nice positions. I play since I was little, I've been competing for a while, usually end up in the top three," he added quite proud of his achievement.

"Wow, that's impressing," she said before adding "I've never competed, I had a music teacher who used to come three times every week and the only people I played for are my family members," she said with a smile as they reached the gate of the school.

"Well I'm sure you will enjoy yourself here, it's not as exclusive as a private teacher following you, but close," he replied looking around for his parents.

"I guess, maybe but right now I wasn't so impressed, so I don't know this might be the last time we see each other." Callie said as she looks around for familiar faces.

"Well I hope not, we have lots of fun here especially during the festivity. We host a small concert for our relatives," Brandon explained, in hopes to convince to stay, he liked her a lot and to lose her now that they became fast friend would be a shame.

"We'll see" she said then, pointing a woman in front of a car she continued "that's my mom over there, so i better go"

"Well ok then, I hope to see you next time?" He said in a hoping tone, as she went towards her mom and he went in the opposite direction looking for Lena.

"Hey sweetheart, you ok?" Jill said as she saw her daughter's face.

"I'm fine mom, it's just that class was boring, but I met a new friend and he said it's because it's our first lessons," Callie said, calming her mom who was already against the idea of enrolling her there, as she entered the car. Finally, with the help of her parents Callie was now able to sit in the passenger seat again without freaking out or hyperventilating; after a while and a lot of taking during the summer holidays, Callie found the strength to overpass her fear, much to everybody's relief.

"Well, you know I was so against it from the beginning, if you want to go back to home lessons I can look up new teacher and convince your dad that this was a bad idea," Jill said as they exited the parking area in front of the school.

"I don't know mom, I like the idea of shows for parents and competitions but, I also like the peace and the sole attention of my teacher" she said conflicted as Jill drove to the highway.

"Well, if you want, we can get you a new teacher who will teach you at home, it'll be a good one that know the yearly competition so he can prepare you if you want to," she said, as she took the next exit.

"It's a good idea mom, but I don't know if I want to compete, beside I'm already busy with those horse classes me and Sophia take every year, then gramps promised to teach me how to drive a boat and grandma gave me those dance lessons to go to, and I don't know mom, playing was always for fun, like photography as much as I like the idea and everything else, I might stop so that I could still have time for school," Callie tried to explain to her mom what she thought of her idea.

"Well, you know I'll support whatever you decide, me and your dad, we only want the best for you and your sister, we will always support your decisions," Jill said with a smile as the car stopped at a stoplight.
