“This is funny.” I cracked up and he slightly raised his brows in curiosity and I kept chuckling out loud. I have been in the dark but now I know who my real competitors were. “What is so funny?”“Everything.” I grinned, turning to the door where the lady was dancing. “Don’t be so happy Ivana, you will lose this show.” His words made my brows snap together as I turned to look at him. “Why are you glaring so hard at me?” He leans back, crossing his arms across his chest. “It’s obvious you can’t dance and now that banner is up, the director will do his pick after the sideshow, you are also rejected by all the practice teams, no one wants to help you out, just like everyone hate me, they hate you too, so we are in the same boat.” He widened his arms. “Alone!” He made a round O with his mouth.I bite down my lips suppressing my anger. “You are so annoying!” I grit my teeth glaring hard at him while wishing my eyes would be a dagger and pierce through his soul.Ryan scratched his hair wi

I rushed down the school lobby the next day to find Kate. I peeked through the window of an instrumentalist practice room hoping to see her there. She had told me this was where she spent most of her time practicing her guitar playing.I didn’t see her there, it was totally empty. I didn’t see Kate yesterday after practice. I had run over to the lobby where I was asked to wait for her but she was not there. I also dialled her number but she didn’t pick my call.“Ivana.” I heard behind me and turned to see Kate holding her guitar behind her back and she was looking at me with those wide gazes. I searched her eyes for a trace of anger but there was none.“I am sorry Kate, I went there but didn’t meet you…”“It’s okay, I came late anyway, I was stuck in practice that I missed the time, I came over but you weren’t there so I took it you got tired of waiting,” I shook my head but she didn’t let me speak but when on. “I should be the one apologizing,” Kate said softly.“No.” I walked over a

It was busy at school the next day, they were setting this up at the practice hall, the sub show would commerce in the room and everyone seemed nervous.Just yesterday the director has made it clear his intention for this show and it was the same as what was on the board a few days ago, I was not nervous this show wasn’t for me, the act to be performed was not my part to play so I was going to be on standby.It only has to do with the choreography and picking out who wouldn’t participate in the next show. I was with the instrumentalist but we have only composed the song to be used for the show. We would be doing the live performance on the main show but as for this one, they will use the record.I crossed my arms as I stared at the eager reporters who were on standby and also the directors who were here to grace the show. They were talking to the school president and the director. I looked at the stage, they were done with setting things up and the show would be beginning soon.I coul

Katherine raised her hand and the director turned to her. "Yes, you have something to say, let’s hear it.""Sir, who then is the female lead since we have the male lead already?" She asked and the director smiled as he scanned the room and settled his eyes on me and I blinked rapidly as his lips parted to answer her questions.My heart raced as he looked into my eyes and I pursed my lips, is this what I think it is?"You will find out after the practise since it's already in the newspaper." The director said the words and we all whined, what is the point of keeping us in suspense.Ryan turned to look at me and I saw his gaze from the corner of my eyes. "What?" I asked him, it was offending me that he was always sitting next to me during practice, I wish he could just go somewhere else."I can hear your heart racing." He looked down at my chest and I glared at him. "Don't worry, you are not the female lead." He looked away from me with a smile.He truly has the knack for annoying peopl

I heard a knock on my room door and I groaned covering my ear with my pillow. My alarm had only gone off a few minutes ago and I had only turned it off to go back to sleep but then this knock. I knew who it was, just like the past few weeks, Robin was knocking so early to make me get up for exercise. The main show was in a week and last week ran as fast as it could. I was so stressed out with practice since the director was no longer taking it easy on us. I was exhausted with it coupled with Robin’s consistently waking me up to go with him for a morning run. I take back my words about Robin being caring if ever I have said that in the past, I had told him I needed to practice hard for the show not for him to torture me to lose weight, I can't tell I it was payback for ignoring him and using practice as an excuse. My room door was pushed open and I bit down on my lips, I thought I had locked it when I went to sleep last night. I must have been so tired from doing that. "Wake up
