I sat down in a chair for all the people auditioning. I looked around, how the hell am I gonna get this part I want. Everyone else here comes from high prestigious families while I'm just a nobody, "Destinee Garcia! We're ready for you now" I heard someone call my name. I stood up walking over, my fingers twiddling with my earring on my left ear. I walked into the center of the audition room. "Hello, My name is Destinee Garcia. I'm auditioning for the main  little sister." I said putting my hands in my jacket pockets. "How old are you, Destinee." I looked up and over at the judge who asked the question " I'm 21 about to be 22." I say with a slight smile and here comes to the next question "Really?! You look like you're only 14 at best!" I hear a lady exclaim. "I promise I'm 21. I get that a lot." "Alright then, tell us your hobbies." The next judge says. I nodded, "well depends on my mood really but I love to read and write stories, I play the guitar as well as violin. I love watching international dramas. When reading I like to be outside with a blanket on a swing just rocking away my worries." I say with a slight shrug. "I also love hanging out wit... " I trailed off remembering I got rid of my cats. "Hanging out with what...?" I heard a judge asked. "I use to have cats... I just got out of a bad situation... and had to get rid of them... I miss them terribly." I said with a tear rolling down my face. I quickly wiped it away. "Didn't one of the cast just say they got new cats? He even showed us a picture of them! He told us that the shelter they got them from, the previous owner had to get rid of them because they couldn't provide for the cats anymore." One of the judges said. I looked up with a confused look. "Tell Mark to come here and bring one of the cats he has with him!" one male judge said to someone in the background. I watched as someone scurried off, before coming back with Mark Wahlberg with a cat. "Buttercup!!!" I exclaimed wanting to rush over. "What's going on?" Mark asked, "How do you know my cat's name?" He asked nodding towards me. I pulled out my phone quickly and pulled up the photos of my old cat. "Buttercup used to be my cat, with her hubby Patches..." I said walking over and showing him. I hesitantly raised my hand to pet Buttercup, before she looked at me and jumped up onto my shoulders. "Oh, baby girl..." I cried softly. "Why did you give her up." He asked. I shook my head "...I left an abusive home..  and didn't have a place I couldn't provide her or Patches like I wanted to..." I whimpered out quietly before Buttercup started to bite my face. "I know, I know you never liked me crying." I started wiping away the tears on my face giving a smile towards the feline. "She bites whenever someone starts crying?" He asks I nodded my head. "Always have she hates when people cry." I respond "I think we've seen enough for this audition even though it barely was an audition. We want to offer you the part of the main lead." One of the judges says standing up and walking towards us. I stared at them in shock "Wait really?!" I exclaimed. They nodded "Yes really. From what we can tell you will be great for this part." She said. "I will gladly accept the part! Where do I sign" I say with a smile.
