"It looks like I'm winning" The director, Ms. Aurielle said it confidently to the both of us
"What if I really don't like the color white and gold?" I asked
"She's right she should pick the color not us" Ms. Ari told Ms. Aurielle
"Then who started this survey?" Ms. Aurielle asked
I tried to flashback about our conversation yesterday...
"I'll try to ask the whole crew, if I win, the dress will be white and gold..."
"Then if we win, the dress will be blue and black, agree?" I told the director
"Agree" She told the both of us then she leaves the room
"It's you Ms. Aurielle! You started it!" I shouted
"I started it, but who said its blue and black?" She defends herself
"ME! BUT WHY DO YOU NEED TO SHOW THE PHOTO OF THE DRESS?" Okay, I'm the one who started
"When I first saw it, it's white and gold but when me and Anna argued and I took a glance it became blue and black..." Ms. Ari explained her side
Awkward silence right now...
"Why do we need this?" The director asked
"To know which dress Anna will wear during the play" Ms. Ari informed her
"But I should decide which color" I told the both of them
"Just make it blue and black" Me
"Okay, blue and black wins" Ms. Aurielle tells Ms. Ari
"YES! We win Anna we win!"

From: Beth
Hey which color did you picked for your dress?
To Beth:
It's blue and black
From: Beth
I knew it! Hahahaha me and Angela never talked yet
To: Beth
Oh why?
From: Beth
You know, she's a very sensitive person, when Jayson showed the picture of the dress from his friend Mark
To: Beth
Tomorrow, she'll talk you, she's been too quiet since last night.
After that conversation, days passed. The whole cast already had their costumes done except for me, since it takes two weeks for mine to finish because I was the last one to submit the final color of the dress (and yes, it's blue and black). Jayson and I didn't talk a lot because every after practice, I go home right away since mom is in Paris for a month and no one is at home.
Actually, we didn't talk a lot because I don't want to talk to him. What I mean is, I'm afraid, to fall for him again, just like before.
*****
"You know Anna, something is wrong with you" Beth told me while Jayson is having his final practice for his scene
"What Beth?" I took a sip of my coffee from the Geisha girl or Kim. I knew her name after our principal was paging her for three days.
"You've been talking to the whole crew or I mean the whole world, except for one" She told me.
"Except for one? I don't talk to dead people and non-living things, also animals too Beth"
"Uh! I'll just say it again 'You've been friends with the whole crew except for one person' okay!" She's now mad
"Dude, is today your monthly?" I asked, she's been very stressed since yesterday
"Monthly what?!"
"You're monthly visitor"
"WHAT KIND OF QUESTION IS THAT ANNA?"
"Ah, never mind" I told her then I crossed my eyes.
After that Kim arrived, with the high heels girl or Angelica, Kim is carrying a box of pizza meticulously while Angelica is holding a lunch box, the both of them sat beside me and Beth, Kim is beside me while Angelica is beside Beth.
Kim opens the box of pizza which I like the smell, I would really like to get one, but I'm too shy to ask for one. She gets one slice and eats it like she's been hungry for ten years.
While Kim is eating the slice of pizza she told to the three of us that "I don't care about my diet now", Kim is a ballet and ballerinas need a proper and balanced diet because they need to be fit.
While Kim is eating, Angelica opens her lunch box, Beth and I expected that it's rice and chicken with vegetables since that's her favorite food (chicken fillet)
Instead of seeing a rice with chicken and vegetables, what we see is more than what we expect.
"Is she out of her mind?" Beth whispered to me
"I care about my diet" Angelica told us
"That's not a diet Angelica! Maybe you'll perish later" Beth be like 'hahaha, just continue what you're doing I don't care' what a good friend.
"And Stephen won't like you anymore cause you're too thin" Kim told Angelica and we laughed except for Angelica who is mad now
"Stephen loves me, no matter what I look like" Angelica defended her boyfriend, Stephen, he's currently in Japan, having a vacation with his 'family' (?)
"What I look like in your face, even I'm a COC addict, I still have a mind Angelica" Kim defends herself.
"What do you mean Kim?" Angelica asked
"Stephen is my clan mate. Need proof? He gave out his phone number and Facebook"
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN?" Angelica screamed
"I told you, he's not faithful since the first time I saw him" Kim and Stephen are acquaintances after they met each other in a party, which I was not there, there friendship be like "Hi, Hello" style.
"He even has an online girlfriend" She explained again
"What do you mean an online girlfriend?" Angelica asked furiously
"I once asked if he's in a relationship, then he said 'no never' no what Angel?" Kim said
"WHAT!? MAYBE THEY'RE JUST USING HIS NAME!"
"I'm sure that is really Stephen, and hey he also got an 'online girlfriend for three months already"
"So you're forever is already over" I exclaimed but in a funny way
"Where's your infinity and beyond now?" Beth asked
"May I know her?" Angelica asked
"Her name is Jenny, and I heard that Jenny and Stephen planned to see each other in Japan for one month" Kim spoils
"So you're telling me Stephen went to Japan just only to see that Jenny? Not to have a vacation?"
"A vacation... A vacation without you" we laughed
While we were laughing Jason suddenly arrives, when we were back to the normal world after we discovered the fake forever of Angelica and Stephen, it's like me, Beth and Kim are the servants of queen Angelica to find for her missing prince. So the three of us decided to have separate ways, then suddenly Kim went to the other land and saw Stephen having a happily ever after with that Jenny.
"Uhm Anna" Jason called my name everything was in silence
