She said my girl is up to great things. But I thought I'd find you studying here at Alfea. Faragonda: A great concert will be given at the end of the annual tournament. And since Musa is seriously considering Becoming a professional singer, I thought it would be a perfect opportunity. Musa: I appreciate that, but I didn't think you were gonna come daddy. Musa: Dad?

Scene: Cemetery, Melody
Musa: Riven might not be easy to get along with but at least he's honest. Mom, what's wrong with trying to follow your dreams? Isn't that what you and daddy did? You looked solely from music.

Scene: Outdoor Area, Red Fountain
Ho-Boe: Believe you me, young lady. This will be your first and last concert. Musa: What?! How can you say that? Music was your life! Ho-Boe: I'm talking about your life. Where do you think all that dancing will get you when you're 30 or 40 years old? How will you support a family? Musa: I want to be a singer, not a dancer, okay? Ho-Boe: And that's exactly what I cannot let happen. Do you think I enjoy arguing with you? Musa: Maybe. Why else would you be stressing yourself out like this? You like being angry?! Ho-Boe: What happened to your mother hasn't taught you much, has it? Musa: You and mom taught me to believe in my dreams and to fight for them! Ugh! How could you forget that? Ho-Boe: You shouldn't have said that Musa. You leave me no choice. I'm transferring you to another school. I'm sorry but one day, you'll understand. Layla: If you want to talk, I'm right here okay? Musa (voice over): My dad was a young musician who happens to see my mom's first concert. Young Ho-Boe: Hey uh hi. You see I wrote this piece for cello and voice and I was wondering if you might wanna sing it so that I- Matlin: Yeah. I'm going back home tomorrow afternoon. How about tomorrow morning? Musa (voice over): In fact, dad hadn't proposed anything At all. So he had to write the whole song in one night. The piece was nothing special but mom liked to sing it anyway. Mom and dad had a storybook romance. They were so in love. They lived and worked side by side but after a while, work became scarce and their music careers didn't pay enough. Dad wanted nothing more than to see mom fulfill her dreams. Layla (voice over): And that's when you came into the picture. Musa (voice over): Even though they were very poor, they were very happy to have me. Dad used to say that the day I was born was the happiest of his life. Young Ho-Boe: Wa-Nin. Wa-Nin!!! Wa-Nin....

Musa (voice over): Dad never got over it. He didn't play a single note ever again. And I became the only thing in his life. Layla: You know, I think your father is just scared if you follow a musical path, you'll end up like your mother. Musa: Oh Layla! I want to be the Fairy of Music and I don't want to lose either of you guys or my dad. Layla: That'll never happen Musa. Just give a great show and don't worry about anything else, okay?
