Ticket To Love

Chapter 4

Welcome to Ticket To Love! Today's question is...

Question 4) What is the best quality a person can have?

Answer: I think the best quality someone can have is honesty. Not only to be honest with the people around you, but also being honest to yourself. Being honest just saves everyone's time in the end.

 I woke up this morning in a good mood. Such a good mood that I actually got up early to go grab coffee and donuts for Ozzy, Mr.Peters, and I since we are filming today. Pulling up to Ozzy's house right now makes me wonder how he's feeling today after last night. He texted me last night and said that the bathroom was going to be his room for the night because he was so sick. 

 I honked my horn about 5 minutes ago and just when I was about to do it again, he came out, looking like hell. He had bags under his eyes, his hair was quite a mess, and I think he still had them same clothes on from last night. 

He opened my car door, "Morning"

"Good morning. How are you feeling?"

"Like shit," He said sitting down, "But I feel much better now that I am in your presence."

I rolled my eyes, "Here," I handed him a coffee, "This might help."

 I started the car and made the same drive I did every morning. It feels so weird to be going to school on a Saturday morning. It's like the same feeling you get when you see a teacher out in the world doing normal things. Thankfully Mr. Peter's was cool enough to come in today too to let us film him. 

 The school had pretty good film equipment for us to use, so I'm thinking that this might turn out good. Today we are only shooting Mr. Peters but I feel like it's going to be a good start. I'm hoping he can give us some more insight on how to make our documentary even better. The only plan of attack we have for this project is to interview people and ask if they believe in love, but I want it to be more than just that. I want people to watch this and feel something. Even if it's hatred toward our film, at least they felt something. 

 The school parking lot looked so weird being empty. Besides our cars, there were a couple scatter, which I figured were probably just the janitor and a few other teachers getting work done. We grabbed our equipment and notebooks and headed to Mr. Peters room. 

"So how do you want to film this?" Ozzy asked, "Do you want us to both be behind the camera asking the questions? Or do you wanna do 20/20 style where one of us asks the question and are being filmed too?"

"I think we should just both be behind the camera. I want it to be focused the most on the people who are in it and the stories they have to tell."

 He nodded his head, as he opened the classroom door for me. We said hello to Mr. Peters as we started to set up. Ozzy thought it would be cool to have Mr. Peters sit in front of the whiteboard while we interview him and we could draw and write on the whiteboard. I started to draw some hearts, while Ozzy went to town writing "Do you believe in love?" in some nice handwriting. I didn't know he was that artistic. I smiled at him, while he smiled at his own drawings. 

 I motioned for Mr. Peters so sit down, "Okay, so I'm going to work the camera, while Ozzy asks you the questions. You can be as honest as you want with your answers or you can be vague, whatever you are comfortable with. It shouldn't take too long." He gave me a thumbs up as I hit the record button. 

"Mr. Peters," Ozzy started, "We are going to start with a simple yes or no question. Do you believe in love?"

Mr. Peters smiled, "Yes, I do."
