"Why were you worried," I asked questioningly.
"Umm..."he scratches behind his head. "I kinda maybe like Maria"*********
I paused, it took me a few seconds to realize what he said.
"WHAT!!!"I screamed back and pushed him. " You like Maria, no way you are joking right?" He kept a straight face. "You do don't you" He shook his head in agreement.Tears started to form in my eyes. I ran away from him and passed Maria and I went straight to the carpark. I jumped into my car and bursted out in tears. I couldn't understand how he could like her. I mean Maria is my best friend but its just weird. He knows her for like one year and they barely talked to each other, but I knew him for seven years and we talked a lot. I couldn't believe him. I wiped up my tears and started to reverse when I saw and heard Maria and Alejandro calling my name. I wanted nothing to do with them until after the competition, but my conscience got the best of me. I came out of the car and walked towards them. I didn't want to be near Alejandro now but Maria is my best friend so I had to go.
"What do you guys want," I asked sternly.
"We wanna talk Luiza," they both said in unison.
"Talk about what, because I have nothing to talk about which pertains to the both of you" I said rudely.
They both had a blank expression on there face. "Well if we are done here?"I spoke. A tense silence lead over.I walked off with my hands on my hips and went back into my car. I let out a deep breath and drove back to the studio. It was around six and my solo wasn't complete, and on top of that Alejandro had to help me. Ughhh I hate this.
As I, I went straight upstairs to my rehearsal space and started stretching and choosing another song to dance to. Just then the person who I don't want to see now walks in the room.
"Get out!" I said in a shakey voice. He just stood there. I walked up to him , my face was red."I said get out!" I was real mad. He is wasting my time. " I'm not leaving here until you answer me" he shouted. " Okay fine, you will stay right there" I spoke.I went back and chose my new song to dance to. It was called 'FREEDOM' by Beyonce. I started to improve when Alejandro walked straight towards me and pushed me against the wall. " I am not leaving until we speak"" WHAT DO YOU WANT" I spoke. " I want to know why you left crying after I told you" " I did that because umm......" an awkward silence came right after. " Ummm I like you Alejandro, I really do but you like Maria and I cant do that to here she is my best friend, so if we are done here can you please get off of me and get out of my life" He backed back and watched me in my eyes with anxiousness and depression. Then I busted out the room my room and went straight to the washroom and bawled my eyes out. Maria come in and asked me what was wrong, I got up and watched here with a glare and walked back to my room wiping my face.
When I got back to my room and finished my solo. I really didn't care how it ooked because I was frustrated with all that happened ealier. So when I go home I will perfect it and be ready to win the competition tomorrow.
*****************
When I got home I rushed upstairs took a bath and came downstairs for dinner. My mom made spaghetti and meatballs. My dad hadn't reached home yet as usual so he would just reheat the dinner. I ate some of my dinner I wasn't really in the mood to eat. I looked sad and angry which my mom happened to realize.
" What's wrong sweetie" she asked concerningly
"Nothing mom..... its just its sooo much pressure tomorrow and stuff happened between Alehandro, Maria and I today and my solo, I had to redo it and it isn't perfect and tomorrow is the show"
I just broke down and cried my eyes out. Like it was the fourth time today. Keep it today Luiz geeze!
"Its okay Luiz, everything would be fine. Tonight I will help you with you solo, tomorrow after the show you would sort out things with Alejandro and Maria, forget about them now , its your time to shine and to take off more pressure I will hire and makeup stylist " she spoke and embraced my with her loving and caring hugs.
My mom always knows how to cheer me up and make me feel so much better. I love her soooooo much, I don't know what I would do without her.
After she cheered me up, I went upstairs into my room and changed into one of my dance wear. It was a purple ruffled to that marked number one on it in silver with the matching shorts. I grabbed my turners and my phone and headed downstairs to my dance room. My mom was already there waiting for me wearing a white loose fitted top and a black leggings. We started off working on the technical parts of my solo then we moved on to the acro and gymnastics parts and moved on accordingly until we were finished for the night. I still had to touch up on some minor things in my dance but it was perfected more or less, but in the morning for that.
"Thank you mom" and I hugged her.
" Your welcome sweetheart, anything for my angel, now you should be going to bed Missy, big day tomorrow" and with that she kisses me on my head and I went straight up to my room.
I went straight to sleep after like five minutes I was out cold. I can't wait for tomorrow. Wonder what will happen between Alejandro, Maria and I.
