Chapter 2 - First Rehersal

First rehersal time was upon us.
I groaned.
This is going to be awkward.
Annabeth, Hazel Levesque our best friend who was playing Daniela and I walked over to the drama room where everyone was except...
"Percy and Jason!" We exclaimed as finally the boys arrived.
"Sorry!" They say in unison both looking quite red.
Huh that's odd I thought unless...
My thought was interrupted by Apollo our drama teacher.
"Settle down everyone!" He scanned our faces.
"Where to begin? Right so today's rehearsal will focus on the opening scene with the song 'in the heights'
And I will set you homework to learn more about your characters personalities and also to learn the words. Are we all familiar with the song?"
Everyone nodded vigorously.
"Everyone is singing the chorus but the people with solos and duets are Jason, Percy, Piper, Hazel, Katie, Calypso, Travis and Leo. I'll hand out sheets with words."
Here are the words:

In the Heights Lyrics
[USNAVI~JASON]
Lights up on Washington Heights, up at the break of day
I wake up and I got this little punk I gotta chase away
Pop the grate at the crack of dawn
Sing while I wipe down the awning
Hey y'all, good morning

[PIRAGUA GUY~WILL, spoken]
Ice cold piragua! Parcha. China. Cherry. Strawberry. And just for today, I got mamey!

[USNAVI, spoken]
Oye, piragüero, como estas?

[PIRAGUA GUY, spoken]
Como siempre, Señor Usnavi.​
Ice cold piragua! Parcha...

[USNAVI]
I am Usnavi and you prob'ly never heard my name
Reports of my fame are greatly exaggerated
Exacerbated by the fact that my syntax is highly complicated
'Cause I immigrated from the single greatest
Little place in the Caribbean
Dominican Republic! I love it!
Jesus, I'm jealous of it, and beyond that
Ever since my folks passed on, I haven't gone back
God damn, I gotta get on that
Fo! The milk has gone bad, hold up just a second
Why is everything in this fridge warm and tepid?
I better step it up and fight the heat
'Cause I'm not makin' any profit if the coffee isn't light and sweet!

[ABUELA CLAUDIA~REYNA, spoken]
Ooo-oo!

[USNAVI, spoken]
Abuela, my fridge broke. I got café but no "con leche."

[ABUELA CLAUDIA, spoken]
Ay Dios, try my mother's old recipe: one can of condensed milk

[USNAVI, spoken]
Nice.​ Oh wait, your lottery ticket—

[ABUELA CLAUDIA, spoken]
Paciencia y fe…

[USNAVI]
That was Abuela, she's not really my “abuela,”
But she practically raised me, this corner is her escuela
Now, you're probably thinkin: "I'm up shit's creek!"

[WOMAN~LARA]
I've never been north of Ninety-Sixth Street!

[USNAVI]
Well, you must take the A Train
Even farther than Harlem, to northern Manhattan, and maintain
Get off at 181st, and take the escalator
I hope you're writing this down, I'm gonna test ya later
I'm getting tested; times are tough on this bodega
Two months ago somebody bought Ortega's
Our neighbors started packin' up and pickin' up and ever since the rents went up
It's gotten mad expensive, but we live with just enough

[ENSEMBLE]
In the heights
I flip the lights and start my day
There are fights

[WOMEN~LARA]
And endless debts

[MEN~CONNOR]
And bills to pay

[ENSEMBLE]
In the Heights
I can't survive without café

[USNAVI]
I serve café

[ENSEMBLE]
'Cause tonight seems like a million years away!
En Washington—

[USNAVI]
Next up, ding! Kevin Rosario
He runs the cab company,​ he struggles in the barrio
See, his daughter Nina's off at college, tuition is mad steep
So he can't sleep; everything he get is mad cheap!
