Background Information
Apollo was adopted by Faith Jones and Anthony Ferdinand. His father had been killed in a drive by shooting while walking from work. His mother had to give him up to an orphanage because she was gravely ill and couldn't take care of him. She died months after. Apollo's adopted father never really liked him as much as his other kids. He had always signed him up for things just to get him out of the house. Faith, however, loved all of her children the same. She encouraged all of them to go for there dreams no matter how big they were. Apollo's adopted mother told his father what to sign Apollo in, knowing that she had to if she wanted both her husband and Apollo to be happy. From age 6, he was in singing and dance classes. When he turned 8, his mother signed him up for acting classes and spanish classes. Suddenly, his mother became ill. No one knows how it happened or when it began, but one day she just couldn't get out of bed. She always still tried to do things for her children but her husband made her rest. He tried to do the things she used to do like clean and cook and read stories to the youngest but it was never quite like her. She died when he was 10 years old. From his mother's death, he vowed to himself that he'd be the best person that he could be for her and his dead parents. By that time, his dad had replaced all his performing arts classes with classes such as Archery, Soccer and Swimming. He accepted that he had no opinion in the matter of his classes, but he still practiced his theatrical skills in private. His constant practicing, frequent classes and continuous studying made it extremely hard to make friends or really have any relationships. Regardless, he did have a few people he talked to occasionally. From his freshman year, he knew he had to be in cheerios. He auditioned for it and got in. Years of dance really helped him with cheerleading.
