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.
