Críse-
I walk into this place I ain't neva been to in V.A. before, called "Roc Nation" I mean a nigga been living here since 7 , and I ain't neva heard of this. Anyways, I dress nice in my armani suit from head to toe and fresh cut, topped off with a gold chain, if I'm gonna impress, I gotta look good and plus I'm meeting the love of my life mother.
" Name ?" Says some girl at a desk.
" Críse Menendez "
" Ohhh yea, your on the list, come on let me get you your number and show you where you will be held"
" Oh iight" I follow her into a damn stadium full of people, producers and other celebs.
What the fuck have I gotten myself into I whisper to myself.
" ok here you are, your number 23, just go up when your called"
"Oh..hh.okk. " I say nervously.
" it's ok you don't have to be nervous, just inhale and exhale, trust me it works" the lady says then walks away.
Críse -
Shit inhale and exhale my ass , I ain't neva done no shit like this before, I mean rob told me it was serious but I ain't know it was this!! Serious!
As I sit down I see rob next to her mom I'm guessing, damn , I can see where she gets her good looks from*thinking to myself*
I see her wave at me and I wave back only in a motion telling her to come over here pronto!
Ŕobyne -
" I'll be back ma" I say walking away.
I can tell by the way of his face that he's nervous, I walk over to him with low eyes.
" Hey papi, whet wrong?"
" U AIN'T TELL ME ALL THESE BIG NAME PEOPLE WAS GONE BE HERE!!"
" shhhh lower your voice baby damn" I immediately pull him outside.
" I'm sorry, it's just this is..., wow, I don't know if I can sing in front of this many people babe "
" ok papi look at me, I know you can do this ! U have an amazing voice , and you've got the moves and writing skills, when your singing just look at me and picture no one else in the room, only me , ok baby I know u can do it You got dis!"
I see him calm down and exhale while looking in my eyes, I lean forward and give him the strongest kiss letting him know I believe in him.
" ok , I guess I can do that"
" yes! Now go in there and show dem who boss" I say giving him the biggest hug.
We wall back inside and take our original seats as before.
I see that were now on number 22 so I know he's next, I mouth to him " you got this" .
Announcer -
" number 23 to the stage "
Críse -
I walk up on the stage, more confident now that my baby calmed me down.
" state your name and what you will be doing please "
" I'm Críse Menendez, and I'm gonna be singing and playing the piano to "try a little tenderness" by otis redding acapella "
I see the crowd faces looking like , this Hispanic boy ain't about to sing a soul song.
Annoucer-
" ok Chris, whenever your ready"
I noticed he said my name wrong, but I didn't correct him, I just walked over to the piano taking my seat. Looking over at ŕobyne I start playing, and she was right all I could see was her.
" O, she may be weary
Them young girls, they do get weary
Wearin that same old shaggy dress ohhh yeaaa
O, when she gets weary, try a little Tenderness ohhh yes oh yes
You know shes waiting, just anticipating
For the things she'll never posses
While she's there waiting
Try, o just a little, o just a little little little tenderness
That's what I said, a little tenderness,It's' All you gotta do
It's not, ha, oo just sentimental, no, She has, she has, she has
Her griefs and cares
But the soft words spoke so gentle, yea
And it makes it easier, easier
To bare
You won't regret it no
Them young girls, they don't forget it
Love is their own, their own, happiness
But it's all, it's all, so simple now
All you gotta do is try a little tenderness,Won't you show her won't her, won't you show her that you love her
You wanna squeeze her, don't tease her, neva leave her
You got want to want to just try a little tenderness, You gotta show her that you want it, now one above her now
Squeeze her, don't tease her, neva leave her
Hold her, grab her softly now
And try a little tenderness
You ota listen to me, don't leave
Don't cheat her now
Squeeze her, don't cheat her, neva leave her
Gotta show her na na na heeyyyyyy hey!
You got to know what to do, don't be a fool
You need to try this now
Just try a little tenderness
Take it from me you don't wanna let her leave
Squeeze her, don't tease, neva leave er!"
I finish the song in one final high note, still looking at ŕobyne with her hands covering her mouth in awe along side her mother with her mouth wide open. Then I realize the crowd standing up clapping and cheering, I bow and walk off the stage as the crowd gets louder. This has officially been the highlight in my life I think to myself.
Ŕobyne -
I walk ova to him, giving him de biggest kiss ever, not even caring if my mom was ah lookin.
" I love you baby, that was amazing! U straight killedt it!"
" i love you too mami, and u were right I was over exaggerating a little, thanks" I say pecking her lips.
Críse -
Well the first part of this meeting day is done, now I have to meet the next hardest task. I gulp just thinking to myself ~what if she doesn't like me~ I quickly get snapped out of my thoughts when her mom walks up with rapper Jay -Z coming to speak to either me or rob....rob I hope 😥
Aaliyah -
" hi, it's Críse right?"
" ugh yes ma'am"
" well I'm Aaliyah, Ŕobyne's mother and Co owner of this place, I assume you know now"
" Oh yes ma'am, I'm greatful for this opportunity " I say as I shake her hand.
" good, dis be Jay, I'm sure you ah know em too 😊, we were juss discussing how talented u are, and what amazing voice you have"
" yes, thank you so much" my accent came out thick.
" yes well, we would like to discuss a record deal with you in a scheduled meeting, do you accept?"
I look at Ŕobyne seeing the excitement in her eyes then look back at her mom and jay.
" yes! That would be wonderful , thank you guys so much!" I literally sound like a illiterate Hispanic with my accent and mispronounced words as I speak fast in excitement.
" den it's settled, I'll get your meeting scheduled according to your school arrangements, we'll call you"
Jay-Z -
" your a real true talent boy, looking forward to working with you" he says shaking my hand before walking off.
" thank you, thank you" I say again.
They don't know what this means to me, this is all I dream about and now it's becoming real, I love ŕobyne for encouraging me to come and sing, if it wasn't for her I would've neva left the chill spot on the east side wit my homies, damn...this shit is real, now I gotta sit down and have lunch wit er ma, 😳 I hope this goes good.....
