That night, Jessica was out at the old boat house, holding her legs to her chest and crying into her knees.

Until, Jose came along and saw his love in tears.

"Jessica, qual é o problema, meu amor?" He asked.

"Oh Jose, my father has arranged a marriage for me to a man I never even met." She said, weepingly.

Jose was crushed.

His one true love was being forced to marry another.

Which means they could never be together.

"That's horrible." He said, hugging her.

"He said if I don't marry him, he'll never speak to me again. As if I was disowned. I told him so be it. But now I feel guilty." She said, crying into him.

Jose held her close in his arms. 

"When we are angry, we say or do things we don't mean. And you have a good heart. You would never do anything wrong." He asked.

"What do we do? I don't want to marry this man but I don't want to lose you either. Your the one I want to be with." She said.

"Even if we can't be together, our love will always stand." He said.

He took her hands and began to sing.

She then joined in.

Such a beautiful song

Jose-

Never knew I could feel like this

Like I've never seen the sky before

I want to vanish inside your kiss

Every day I love you more and more

Listen to my heart

Can't you hear it sings

Telling me to give you everything

Seasons may change

Winter to spring

But I love you

Until the end of time

Come what may

Come what may

I will love you

Until my dying day

Jessica-

Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place

Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace

Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste

It all revolves around you

Both-

And there's no mountain too high

No river too wide

Sing out this song and I'll be there by your side

Storm clouds may gather

And stars may collide

Jose-

But I love you

Jessica-

I love you

Both-

Until the end of time

Come what may

Come what may

I will love you

Until my dying day

Come what may

Come what may

I will love you

I will love you

I will love you

Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place

Come what may

Come what may

Come what may

Come what may

I will love you

Until my dying day

He raised her chin. 

"Remember, minha pomba. Things will happen, but our love will never change." He said.

"Do you promise?" She asked.

"Here is my promise." He took out a silver necklace with a pearl heart pendant.

"It's beautiful." She said.

He put it around her neck. 

"As long as you wear this, you will remember how powerful our love is." He said.

She smiled and hugged him. He hugged her back.
