Living Remarkably

chapter two Miss.Mccollen

I decided to go grab my computer and my favorite book the abundance of Katherine's, and go out to this little coffee shop around the corner to get my mind off things. I ordered a chocolate chip frappe and sit in the far right corner next to the window. As I was reading the book for the hundredth time I started thinking.... I can relate to all the characters feeling most comfortable in one place (like Lindsey) feeling like you don't really matter (like Colin) and feeling like you should finally do something good with your life (like Hassan). *many other reasons maybe that's wh-
"Heyyy I love that book" some middle aged women said sitting at another table next to me
"yea I like it too, it's actually my 50th time reading it" I said
"Did you know they are making that a movie? Their actually doing auditions I saw!" She says just about yelling
wait a minute this would be perfect, If I could maybe get a role this would be great! I mean I know the book like the back of my hand and this could set off my acting career
"really?!" I reply
"Yea I saw on the Internet, well I have to go enjoy your book"
at that, she walked out the little cafes door
I quickly got out my laptop and looked up on google abundance of Katherine's auditions.
I came up!
it said:
AUDITIONS HERE: empty roles for the character Lindsey and Collin
I looked at the text in disbelief. There was other information around it but I couldn't stop staring at the words... I could audition for Lindsey!
I saw a number under the text I decided to get out my phone and call it
a more safisticated sounding women answered
"Hello" she says
"Hey im Jori Mccollen. And I was wondering if I could have an audition for the role of Lindsey for your movie the abundance of Katherine's?" I say every now and the my voice got shaky
"yes you may but I just need you to email me you acting career portfolio and you may come tomorrow at 8:00 at the address of 7365 Sandy rd"
I hurried out a pen and wrote down the time and place on a spare napkin
"Okay I'll be there thank you very much"
" your welcome have a nice day miss. McConnell"
With that the phone hung up. My mind was blowing up with different thoughts
- I'm have to email her my tiny portfolio that has just about nothing in it...that's great
With that I clicked on the email that was on the website and copy and pasted each page of my portfolio then sent
I slouched back in my chair and sighed
what if I don't get the part?
what will I say to my all time favorite author John Green?
it was all spilling through my head but one little tiny thing popped through
....the lady called me Miss. Mccollen I don't know was I was thinking about that, it was just.... Different I guess it made me feel professional haha I laughed at that stupid thinking
then I remembered Maddie I grabbed my phone quickly and called her
"THATS GREAT JORI! IM SO PROUD" she yells
"Okay Maddie calm down its just an audition I never said I got the part"
"Well you should cause your a amazing actor!"
" well thanks Anyway Maddie" I laugh as the ridiculous thought
" KK well I'm gonna go I have a new challenge to do I'll text you later"
"Kk talk to you later"
At that I stood up and was about to walk out the door when someone said
"Miss.Mccollen!"
I turned around to see an old lady holding my book that I left that has my named neatly ingraved on the inside of the cover
"I think you forgot something" she says
At that I grab my book say my thank and get in my car
"Hmmm...Miss.Mcconell...I think I like that" I say to myself driving away
