Chapter 8:

"Elsa, get up!" says Mom from downstairs.

"I'm already ready," I say coming downstairs. 

"Somebody looking forward to college these days," says Dad picking up his briefcase.

"Maybe," I say shrugging.

I won't lie but I actually feel quite excited for college these days. With the musical and Miss Honey's special classes I actually look forward to going to college. 

"You looks horrible, as usual," says my elder sister.

For a change, instead of getting crushed by her rude comment, I feel something inside me wanting to give it back to her.

"It's better to look horrible from outside than be horrible from inside!" I say hitting back.

My sister's jaw has dropped and she looks like she's just been slapped. "I'm getting late," she says after a while quietly picking her handbag and leaving the room without making eye contact with anyone.

"Your bus is here," says mom looking out of the window, "Off you go."

"Excited for today," says Nancy as soon as I get into the bus.

 "I'm getting goose bumps," I say sitting down.

"I think you are going to get the lead role," says Nancy.

"I don't think I'll be able to do it," I say.

"You'll have two months to prepare," says Nancy.

I want to tell Nancy what happened this morning but we are interrupted by two girls sitting in front of us.

"Hi Elsa and Nancy. Both of you gave your name for the musical right?" says one girl with long red hair and black nail polish. 

"Yes we did," says Nancy.

"You gave the auditions late, didn't you?" says another girl looking at me. 

"Yes," I say.

"I was passing  by at that time and heard you sing, it was very good," she says.

"Oh thanks," I say blushing slightly. 

"Somebody's getting popular," says Nancy softly in my ear.

"Stop it!" I say starting to laugh.

I can't help feeling a glow of happiness surrounding me. The day's just started and its going so well. I don't remember feeling so happy before........

"I hope you understood today's chapter, tomorrow we'll take down the important questions," says Miss Honey at the end of the class.

Miss Honey is about to say something else when a student knocks on the classroom door.

"Sorry to interrupt your class Miss Honey but I have an announcement to make," says the student.

"No problem," says Miss Honey. 

 "Four students who have taken part in the auditions for the musical, have to report to Miss             Dimple in the audition room, right after this class ends. The students are Nancy, Mia, Mike and     Elsa. Thank you Miss Honey." says the student leaving the classroom.

"It's almost time, you all may leave." says Miss Honey.

"Nancy I'll come in a minute," I say.

"I'll wait for you outside the class," says Nancy walking towards the exit.

"Miss Honey, can we please skip class today," I say.

"Of course," says Miss Honey, "You have given your name for the musical. Good job Elsa," says Miss Honey gently patting my back.

"Thank you ma'am," I say blushing slightly.

"We're going to be late again," says Nancy as soon as I step out of the classroom.

"We won't be if we hurry," I say.

We both run and surprisingly make it on time. There are around thirty students waiting for Mrs. Dimple  to speak. At the front I  see Luke. He's talking to one of his friends and they start laughing about something.  Luke sees me, he smiles and gives me a small wave. Suddenly, I realize I'm staring at him and I look away quickly. Why is he getting more and more handsome day by day. Seriously, it's so distracting!

"Okay, so all of you have made it to the second audition, "says Miss Dimple.

Hold on,  a second audition. What does that mean? Usually they have ONLY one audition right? And that's freaky enough, what's the need of another one? I thought she was going to give us our roles and then we would have plenty of time to practice and get ready.

"Each of you will be given a copy of the script, you will have three days to prepare. Note it very carefully students that you must perform well in this audition, if you want an important part in the play." says Miss Dimple, making eye contact with each and everyone of us.

This is not how I thought it would be. But fine, it isn't that bad. We have just do it in front of Miss Dimple and  how tough can that be?

We all are about to leave the room when Miss Dimple stops us. 

"Hold on, I forgot to tell you all something important. For this audition I will not bet the only one judging you. There will be five more teachers who will be judging. Also all your seniors who took part in the musical last year will also come to watch you perform,"  she says.

I feel the entire world crushing down. This surely doesn't mean I will have to perform in front of more than thirty people. Oh God, what have I got myself into. Even thinking about it makes me want to run away. I thought I was only going to do that on the day of the performance and would have plenty of time to prepare for it. Why did I come for the auditions in the first place. What in the world was I thinking? 

This was not a bad idea it was a VERY VERY BAD idea........
