Wolfgang, Vivien and William
10th Anniversary Edition

A fiction story with no time and space limit.
by Esther

One day, Wolfgang was standing in the Vienna Park*, under the statue of Johann Strauss Junior, with a large bunch of flowers, waiting for his girlfriend, Vivien.

¡§Oh! My darling, you're so beautiful today!¡¨ Wolfgang said when Vivien arrived, ¡§This is for you, you're as lovely as the flowers!¡¨ And Vivien received the flowers.

When Wolfgang wanted to kiss Vivien, a man came to them and said, ¡§Viv! Who is this guy? He is such a short, ugly man that you let him kiss you! Have you ever consider I am your boyfriend?¡¨

¡§Hey Bill! Don't mind! You and Wolfgang are my boyfriends, you two may have fair competition. Moreover, I have right to choose!¡¨ Vivien said.

¡§Hello Bill,¡¨ Wolfgang said, ¡§My name is Wolfgang Amedus Mozart. Today Viv will come to my home to listen my latest works. Bye!¡¨

In the evening, William was walking on the street and singing ¡§Honesty, is such a lonely word, everyone is so untrue...¡¨. Suddenly, a hand clapped on his shoulder.

¡§Wolfgang? Where is Viv?¡¨ he asked.

¡§I¡¦ve just saw her home. Hey, what¡¦s the song you just sang? I never heard it before!¡¨ Mozart said, ¡§The melody and lyric are quite good!¡¨

¡§This is composed by me, I like music,¡¨ William said, ¡§I know you are a famous composer, can you teach me how to compose?¡¨

¡§What? You want to write songs for Vivien?¡¨ Wolfgang laughed.

¡§No, not for her .You know, Viv has many male friends, it is very possible that she has boyfriends besides us! I¡¦ve decided to leave her.¡¨

¡§You maybe right, William. She¡¦s an attractive woman.¡¨

¡§My name is William Martin Joel, you may call me Bill. I think we can work together and compose more songs.¡¨

A month later, Mozart met William. ¡§Bill, you¡¦re right! Viv has another boyfriend and they¡¦ve decided marriage would be at the end of June!¡¨

¡§Do you know who he is, Wolfgang? How can you know?¡¨

¡§His name is Clark Gable. Vivien said he was very rich and she would go to America with him after wedding! I saw this guy yesterday, he told me he was an actor and they would be the co-star in a movie called ¡¥Gone With the Wind¡¦¡¨

The ending of this story is that: Wolfgang composed a piece as a gift for Vivien and Clark¡¦s wedding, then he married a soprano** and became a very famous musician. William learnt music from Wolfgang, afterward he went to USA to start his singing career since Vienna is not a place for popular music and had a stagename Billy Joel, and he composed many hit songs such as ¡¥Honesty¡¦. The story about the couple, Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable is too long for me to tell you here, you may read the novels ¡¥Gone With the Wind¡¦ and ¡¥Scarlett¡¦.
