THREE PERFECT DAYS

Chapter 6: DAY TWO

I was in the band room with Toby waiting for the arrival of a certain band member who seems to have taken his precious time really well. Why are we here you ask? Well we usually meet after school to have band rehearsals, usually because of an upcoming gig we have, but today we are because Connor asked us to meet up.

“Ugh! What’s taking him so long? He was the one who called for a meeting. ”

“Well he said he had to run some errands in school…. So he still might be there”

“Well if he doesn’t show up in the next 15 minutes, I’m leaving. I still need to meet up with Iris.”

After 14 minutes and 30 seconds

“Look who finally decided to show up!” I said sarcastically

“Your mood will change after hearing my news Mr.” Connor said

“What is it Connor?” Toby asked

“We’ll I received this letter today and it says that we are the one chosen to perform at the M.E.T. this Saturday night!”

“YES!!” Toby and I both exclaimed

“There is just one problem” Toby said breaking the joyous atmosphere

“And that is….”

“What song do we perform?”

There was a deafening silence in the room. All of us were thinking of what song to perform, whether it is modern or classical and the choice really has to be made now because we only have 3 days ‘til the performance. The standards are: the song should fit the audience, should be reached by my vocals and should fit the theme. Well what is it theme?

 “Guys I don’t mean to add up to the problem but, does anyone know what the theme of the event is?”

“Well the theme is Blue Moon”

“That definitely made our problem easier” I said sarcastically

What we did is that we searched up the net and all the song books we have in order to find the perfect songs. It took us for almost half an hour to do so.  After deciding on the songs we decided to make a run through and then planned for another meeting. When I was about to leave, I looked at my watch and realized that I forgot to do something very important.

“Iris’ gonna kill me!”

“Why?”

“I forgot to tell her to not wait for me in going home”

“Well that is a big problem… Good Luck!”

As I exited the room I hurriedly called Iris but she won’t pick up, I think she’s really mad. So I just sent her a text message.

Meet me and the park tonight at 7… I’ll explain everything.

PS: I won’t leave until you show up, so you better do.

After sending the text I hurriedly went home, ate dinner and went straight to the park. After waiting there for an hour I said to myself that she won’t really come so I got the guts to go straight to her house and apologize. I ran to her house, bringing with me a bouquet of flowers and an apology. I felt kinda nervous but I need to do this so...yeah

I rang the doorbell and then I was greeted by her maid

“Good Evening, may I talk to Iris please?”

“And who are you young mister?”

“Well I’m her boyfriend and I’m here to apologize to her.”
