The Show Must Go On

You Dont Fool Me

We were on top of the wold once again, but this time it was a different Mercury..
The album dropped November 7th in 1995.
The uncles took me in and I already knew the routine since I was 14 years old. After sales I decide to finally take a good break from Queen but don't be fooled it was just a vacation I was going to make a stronger comeback to come. But I wanted to get home in LA so bad, I wanted to see my mom and step dad my brother, to catch-up go out and spend some quality time with my mothers side of them family in the states, but most of all I wanted to see Keanu.

He was in LA in our home we bought together he and I were super busy this year, he was done with "Speed" another box office hit, and me coming from a 4x multiple platinum album in the states and 7 countries total, we were on fire.

When I got home I parked my car in my driveway, and opened my door to a quiet but homey house, it's like I never left. I called out "KEANU?!!....I'm home" I looked in the kitchen and nothing, went down the hall way to where our room was, and past nothing but my past pictures of my father on tour with Queen, baby pictures of my mom and dad and I, a family photo of my uncles and I, and a couple of pictures of Keanu and I being goofy and lastly an iconic picture of my father at Wembley in the iconic yellow jacket at the end of my hallway.

I threw my bags on my bed and laid down with my fathers cats Miko, and Tiffany. But I took in all of my dads cats Goliath, Oscar, Tiffany, Miko, Dorothy, Romero, Lily, and Delilah there was many but I just couldn't seem to give them all up, the house was packed with them all over but I feel as if my father wanted me to have them because as he said many times they were like my siblings and his own kids too. I looked up at my ceiling and thought to myself "I'm finally happy, and it feels so good to be finally in a good place in my life, I'm pressuring my dream and making people happy" I miles to myself.
"you want me to jump in?!" I heard someone say from a distance, I thought to myself "who's here..." I got up and looked around to see if anyone was in my bathroom than I said "where the hell is Keanu??" I figured he'd be in the garden in the back yard, I walked over and could see him by the pool With his shirt off and in shorts but he was accompanied by a woman about our age (31 years old) with brown short hair about to her shoulders, her tan skin was shiny and her smile was very bright she looked so comfortable with him, she was in a bathing suit, her eyes were light brown and she couldn't stop looking at Keanu, it took me a minute to realize it was Sandra Bullock a costar from his new movie "Speed" rumor were swirling that the two were an item but he would quickly shut it down by saying "I'm happily taken by the lovely Ms. Mercury." I ran downstairs before I can see anything else. I went to the pool in my backyard and screamed "why is she her?!!"

I must have scared them because they were in total shook and didn't think anyone was home, she gasped and looked back at Keanu he handed her a towel and said "baby, you're home" he smiled and was happy I was home but the anger took over me and all that was going threw my head was, "is he cheating on me!???" she interrupted and said "this isn't what it looks like Vanessa, I'm sorry I shouldn't have came over knowing you weren't home" I told her angrily "get the hell out of my house....the both of you!!" that's all it took for Sandra to leave while she left he looked at me so confused and asked "what are you talking about, this is my house too, I'm not leaving Vanessa, it's not what it looks like. Please don't get angry and start saying things we don't mean, c'mon love" I looked at him and didn't want to hear his excuse "I don't care Keanu, you disrespected our, MY home with bringing some one let alone HER into here when I'm not here...you need to fucking leave, now" he didn't say a word and grabbed his stuff and left to the room and grabbed what he needed and I followed.
"I can't believe you right now.." he said under his breathe
"NO I CANT BELIEVE YOU!" I screamed at him "I have been working my ass off on this project and YOU KNOW how much this means to me to have gotten this finish, and I just got home to all of this, no fuck you im not going to let anyone anymore fuck me over since he's left" he interrupted me and said "you know you're right I did mess up, but a lot of times you aren't here and it gets boring Vanessa, you need to leave your dad at peace, he's gone and you need to get out of your shell and be free, stop doing what others expect you to do".

I stood there and watched him leave, he looked back at me while leaving onto his motorcycle, and slowly another person left my life.
I thought of what he said to me the whole day, I wanted to be alone for a couple of days so I locked up the house and told Terry (my fathers and mines bodyguard) to go home. Gathered all of my cats and went to my room and locked myself and started to cry and sob for my fathers presence.
