That night, Jose took his seat, reserved up front.
The show began.
There on the stage was his love.
She was dressed up in a beautiful red dress and sitting on the piano onstage.

She began singing.
I get along without you very well
Of course, I do
Except when soft rains fall
And drip from leaves, then I recall
The thrill of being sheltered in your arms
Of course, I do
But I get along without you very well
I've forgotten you
Just like I should
Of course, I have
Except to hear your name
Or someone's laugh that is the same
But I've forgotten you just like I should
What a guy
What a fool am I
To think my breaking heart
Could kid the moon
What's in store?
Should I phone once more?
No, it's best that I stick to my tune
I get along without you very well
Of course, I do
Except perhaps in spring
But I should never think of spring
For that would surely break my heart in two
As she sang, Jose felt his heart beating with every word she spoke, every movement she made, and well everything about her.
When she finished, everyone applauded.
She curtsied.
Jose climbed up onstage, handed her a rose and kissed her.
She accepted it and kissed him back.
Everyone applauded louder.
He then began to sing and she joined in with him.
Jose-You are my lucky star
I saw you from afar
Two lovely eyes at me they were gleaming
Beaming
Jessica-I was star struck
Jose-You're all my lucky charms
Jessica-I'm lucky in your arms
Jose-You've opened heaven's portal here on earth for this poor mortal
Both-You are my lucky star
The two share a kiss together and the crowd goes wild.
