Jeanette took a big gulp of air, lowering her head to the piano before her.
The cheers from below gradually quieted down, all eyes on Jeanette, waiting for her move.
After a brief silence, the sweet sound of the piano poured out, echoing throughout the entire Galaxy Stadium.
Due to her previous performance, Jeanette's voice was somewhat hoarse, but it only added more depth to the emotion of the song:
“I open my eyes, the air changing like boiling water
Suddenly, I have many realizations
If dreams shatter once we wake
Then the world is just a layer of silent dust
I used to hide in the crowd
Only love, can push me forward
I only need a few minutes
To shout out my gratitude
Love, is the start of my life
Love, gives me direction
Love, is always by my side
Guiding me from the dim darkness
To the stage under the sunshine
Standing in the rain, the warmth
You once gave me
Remains in my heart
Love, is my future
Love, teaches me to chase my dreams
"Huh? You're crying too!"
As people came to their senses, they realized their faces were wet with tears. Some were even crying uncontrollably.
"I love Keira's version too, but I like this one more, what do I do?"
"Me too! I really like it!"
"This version is more touching, I can't stop the tears."
Everyone was silently wiping their tears, their hearts filled with deep emotion.
Just then, the big screen on the stage started to flicker! People turned their heads to look. What was playing on the screen was the video Chloe had asked Jeanette to copy for her.
In the video, Jeanette's mother, Serena, was bedridden.
Jeanette was always by her side, massaging her, combing her hair, feeding her, giving her water.
Even when Serena was sound asleep, Jeanette would lay her head on the bed, tightly holding her mother's hand. She was pressing it against her face, silently crying.
She was afraid to wake her sleeping mother, so she bit her lip tightly, trying not to sob out loud. But in the video, people could still hear Jeanette's uncontrollable sobs of sorrow.
