Right From The Start {Book 3}

Not Approved

"Come on Vilu. You have to join us." [Fran]

"Yes you carry the spirit of this place." [Cami]

"No. We all carry the spirit of this studio. I just don't want to run into problems with Leon." [Vilu]

"You can't not participate at all." [Maxi]

"Why don't you compose a song for someone else to sing? You will still be contributing, but you won't have to be in the DVD." [Fede]

"Yeah, that is perfect." [Fran]

"Fine. I will write one song." [Vilu]

Francesca and Camilla hug her nearly making her fall. The group deliberates on two songs, one being a group performance with the band, and the other song being either a duet or solo. Something they still have to figure out.

Attempting to make nice conversation, knowing that Maxi may have seen the magazine already. Nati walks up to him to congratulate him personally.

"Maxi, I want to congratulate you on the band's accomplishment." [Nati]

"Thanks, but if you don't mind I have to get going." [Maxi]

Once again he escapes from her. Yes he's seen the magazine cover, but he doesn't want that to affect his high of being an official recording artist, or band member. Leaves Nati upset knowing she'd trigger more than just nerves.

Ludmilla attempts the same thing. Federico has gotten under her skin recently and even though she's treated him this morning bad, hopefully a personal congrats can make the slate even.

"Federico. I am truly happy for you. The band is going to be a major success. I know it." [Ludmilla]

"Thanks." [Fede]

"About this morning.." [Ludmilla]

"You're right. About everything and now it's more evident that we are just impossible to be together. You've got U-Mix and now I have the band. It's no longer ourselves telling us that we are impossible, but the world is too. I hope you become happy with everything you want." [Fede]

He leaves the same way Maxi does. The thing is she no longer has U-Mix. Now she no longer has Fede. To Lumilla she is herself's worst critic and enemy. It will be her own doing that will isolate herself from anyone who tries to confine in her. The times she surrenders and confines in someone else, it is already too late.

"Angie, we have the best news ever." [Fran]

"Oh, you do." [Angie]

She looks up from the piano.

"The band just got a record deal with a label." [Diego]

"That is amazing!" [Angie]

Cami pulls up her hand as if it were a stop sign.

"It's not even the best part. For their first project they are creating a DVD with a special guest of their choice." [Cami]

"Guess who they picked? Us!" [Fran]

"Are you serious? That is wonderful! The studio needs publicity like this." [Angie]

She moves her hands over her hair in wonder.

"We still can't believe it. We are given two songs. A group song and a solo which Violetta is composing." [Diego]

"Have you guys come up with the group song?" [Angie]

"I've got something." [Diego]
