'Father this is my dream' Henry tried to reason with him but like for the past 18 years of his new life he never got a chance to say anything

'You will return to London immediately and I will honor our deal you will get to perform in the west as much as you want to' he responded

'Father I feel nothing but suffocated in that god forsaken world ' henry said emotionally

'Sebastian what are you doing throwing your life because of a hobby you are supposed to lead our family into Greatness' he said with frustration in his tone

'I know about your greed for power I read your little plan in your room you are getting consumed by it' henry said with anger

'So what if I'm don't you want the Amberstein family to grow and to become more powerful' he said

'I don't care the reason I even gave you that presentation about the dotcom buble and why I kept working, slaving away was because I wanted for you to become proud of me maybe even say good job son did you ever think about...that I only wanted parents that loves me but no...nothing this will be the last communication between the both of us' henry hangs up the phone and smashes it while thinking back at his emotional speech "God or whoever you are you gave me a new life a life where I'm not suffering from Cancer but at what cost"

Tang Xioali raised by loving parents with his entire life filled with laughter and joy until some blood came out of his mouth that day forever changed his life he went in and out of the hospital for months bedridden for years only feeling and remembering pain nothing but pain the only thing making him feel a little alive was some movies and tv shows some songs he was given to by this middle aged man he met whenever he was at chemo until it went dark everything went dark it felt cold and..just cold

back to the present

"Well can't keep sulking all day I have to go or else Jeff will kill me'' he ran

They enter the enter the building and proceed to go to the audition they see several actors with their agents waiting outside the room. some are nervous some are calm

They sit down and then someone leaves the audition room with a dejected look in his eyes as they call up more names one by one they start entering with nervous faces and leave with some dejected some conflicted some happy until my name gets called up

I enters the room and sees Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg sitting together on the table with other producers

'Good afternoon' I say courteously

they respond with a good afternoon

'So I've been able to see some of your audition tapes and it's very impressive how your able to switch from your and if I may say elegant british accent to a southern one instantly is excellent' Steven compliments me which instantly relaxes the atmosphere

"Hmm just what you'll expect from someone like Steven Spielberg he knows how to make a comfortable atmosphere" I though

'It's an honor for me to be complimented by you sir thank you' I said concisely and sincerely

'You may start' Steven Spielberg gestured

I start to act the lines given to me to the best of my abilities

I enter my part time job here in New York a small high class cafe here in Manhattan a few politicians and celebrities frequent here for the privacy and quality of service , a job I do to kill time and earn some money

'Hey Henry how'd the audition go' Stanley the manager of the cafe

'Quite well I think I'll get it' I said with happy tone

'Hey don't forget about us when you get famous' He joked

"Oh don't worry I'll send you guys a card every few years then your dead to me' I joked in a serious tone and face he just chuckled at my little black humor

'Anyways table 4 all for you, a celebrity' He said at me meaningfully I nod at him meaningfully

I wear my waiter uniform and proceed to go to table 4

'Hi good afternoon I'm Henry I'll be your server today' I said in a professional and warm manner

I look at the table and see the celebrity he was talking about Taylor Swift a teen singer that rose to extreme fame with her debut album and her name and songs spread like wildfire because of her catchy lyrics and her image of a naive, beautiful, goofy, and innocent girl got the support of parents all over the us and the girls hitting puberty and later she rebranded her image from a pop girl to a fierce woman and then to a folk singer but right now she just released her album last year and still has her curly hairs and tan skin

'Hi I'll be getting the sea bass....they start ordering and I notice that she's a little shy around me

I serve them the meals that they ordered and I leave the cafe to volunteer in the hospital cancer ward

'Henry you're finally here let's go I don't want to miss it' one of the girls here in the cancer yelled at me as I helped around the cancer ward

'Alright let's get this over with' I said faking my annoyance making them smile

I sit down with a bunch of little girls all sitting around the tv all of them fidgety with excitement
