Flickers

Chapter 106

Time seems to move fast that she almost forgot about her problems and now she's going to face it head on.

Skin pricked in heat, breaths mingling with her furious beating of heart as she walks with a chair on her arm. The chatters of her classmates behind her seems to overcome the exhaustion prominent in her brows and as soon as they round the corner, the wide expanse of a roofless court could be seen.

"I'll ask for the personnel here to provide us some electricity" Carl moved away and went out to ask some stay at home mothers that chatted leisurely in the store near them.

"Quenie and Gelo, in your position!" Michelle our leader yelled, the two would be the first people to open the scene. "Piol ready the props, Kaye get the amplifier and action!"

The first scene was composed of a slap followed by a song from Beyonce's 'If I were a boy' and then the flowery red curtain was put in front to let the actors get into their new position.

"Ange!"

It was my turn, I have already practiced my lines and I was thankful that it wasn't that much or else I wouldn't know what to say on the stage. Maybe some improvising but I have no experience on that.

"You're beautiful, it's true" I sang along the music, holding Berna's hand and circling around her.

Then my scene finished and it was the male and female lead's turn. My hand felt a bit sweaty so I rubbed it on my pants, Alex and Espe was sitting on the ground with their phones in hand. I sat alongside them before bumping slightly to Alex and made her watched the play with me.

It took us half an hour before the other group came with a long canvas that was as tall as Carl, mind you he was a very tall guy. It was a painting of both the interior of the house and the bar. It was Georgia's idea and we've seen on their my days how they painted it.

"I thought it would just be us?" The other asked and murmurs went on till I've felt that something was wrong.

"Why'd you come here, huh? I thought you'll be somewhere" I joked playfully to Georgia and Jeline but was heard by Janmill unknowingly.

"Lhenard was the one who told us this place would be unoccupied" Jeline states and I teased Georgia, everyone knows there some underlying relation between them although they both acted very ambiguously.

Alex and Espe both laughed at Emil while he dance in an imaginary pole. He looks ridiculous with his tongue hanging down out of his lips. If he thinks it would make someone attracted to him then he's bound to get wrong.

We both looked towards the stage coincidentally and saw Janmill occupying the half of the stage and upsurping the background music that our group plays. It eventually leads to Michelle asking her to lower it down but the actors of her group begin to increase their voice.

"I think there's a fight" Emil says with a look of gossip in his eyes. "Aw! Ange!" I flicked his ears which made it redden easily.

"Did you just came here to make trouble!"

"No! Why would I? We wouldn't even leave our place if it weren't for Lhenard proposing this place to us, right Georgia?" He was soon  lheadcked by Georgia after all she was known for head locking her friends.

Michelle could only compromise in the end and asked the other group to stay quiet for this would be our last practice.

"Go ange!"

"Go bebeloves!"

"Noo (forehead) supremacy!"

I glared at the last cheer and tried to overcome the nervousness in my heart. I hope to just imagine them as cabbages for I would also present myself to the class and with our teachers. It's much better if I could get used to it and this is my practice.

My limbs seems stiff for a moment. I tried to restrain myself from laughing after seeing from the corner of my eyes the comical faces my friends makes. I soon get a hold of myself and was able to successfully finish my part. The only downside was that we could be perform everything since the other group was already making up some stir.

Soon it was time for us to leave, before I went home I still have some free time so I went to Faith's house and chatted with her along with Alyssa.

"Irish is now a celebrity, we couldn't find her now" Faith joked, Irish was so busy after all she's one of the main cast on their class play.

"How about yours? How's your thesis?"

"Ugh, don't remind me" Alyssa groaned out loud alongside Faith.

"We have three thesis to do, do they think our parents shit money?" Faith grumbled after all making a thesis costs you a lot of money.

Just with the stress that comes off with it, the repeated revising that makes you feel like money is like running water. Lastly, the rebound of your finished thesis that would probably be left to rot in your teacher's desk.

Truly, senior students doesn't have it easy.
