Two weeks later...

I arrived at the airport with Sydney. She was crying. I was going to L.A. I kind of thought that she was jealous I was going to find a new girl. And coming to think of it, it could be true. That Rihanna girl really caught my eyes. She was a beautiful creation.

Three hours later...

The taxi parked in front of the enormous house of arts and drama. Other contestants had already arrived and were chatting.

"Who's here now?" Someone asked me

"I'm Anthonio" I said

"Oh number 21" one of them said

That hit me pretty well. Number 21? How could you say that. It's an insult.

I was in Hollywood and that was all that mattered. Just then, the door automatically opened and all the contestants rushed in. I also run along pulling my suitcase behind me.

"This place looks amazing!" A blonde girl said.

"It sure does. I'm already loving it!!!" One brunette said.

This kinda felt good. I beat thousands to be here so I had a lot to put in. I needed to be strong and fit right in.

The place looked like heaven.

"Good Afternoon ladies and gentlemen."

Oh my! It was Kristen Parker. The show host. He was like one of the best contestants during his time on the Gamut. The guy is great.

"Good Afternoon Kristen!!!" We shouted out in joy

This guy was famous on reality tv.

"Your rooms are upstairs, you will find your names on names on your doors............ Tomorrow, you will have your first interview tomorrow."

It seems I was the only person still listening. Everyone had run upstairs to look for their rooms. We really had to unpack.

Later that day.....

"I can't believe I made it" one black girl said.

"We were really many. So many it was just impossible" another person said.

We later got to know each other.

"Hope you heard the last part of Kristen's announcements? " I asked.

"We were too excited to hear duh" Sophie said

Wow! Sassy!

"Too excited to hear we have an interview tomorrow" I came out a bit cold

"You don't have to be cold because you were last call out. Everyone can make it here" Sophie responded and that pissed me off

"The fact I was last call out doesn't mean I can't make it. Many last callouts have made it big in the show and the industry so please knock it off" I replied.

"Oh please. It's about class and talent and for a fact. You lack both" Sophie said.

"Enough Sophie!" Blair spoke out.

"Defend him bitch. That's how it starts. You are crushing on him." Sophie blurted before leaving.

Wow! Such attitude. She expects to make it in the Gamut with this attitude. She is the reason why they call blondes dumb bimbos. I just don't know what I've done to deserve such treatment. I tried hard. Very hard to be here.

I just walked out of the room. I was broken. I laid on my bed hoping to fall asleep.

Next day.......

I woke up a little late and ran downstairs. They were already at table.

"He's here. Good morning Anthonio."
"Good morning Carol"
"He is even the last to come to table. " Sophie commented.

"Listen Sophie. I don't know what I've done to you but I'm sorry. Okay. You can't just be acting that way towards me" I spoke out.

(Sophie Grande): Like seriously? He just opens his mouth and goes apologising making me feel bad. Oh Damn. This dude is sick.

"You've done nothing wrong." She replied as I sat down.

"I guess we better start. I'm hungry." Jude said.

Dawn said a prayer and we ate the delicious meal of omelette and milk.

"Don't we have an interview to prepare for?" Sue said.

As usual, they all ran upstairs to get dresses. I cleaned up and did the dishes before going to get ready.

I was a little late but they waited for me. It was a bus. Most of the guys were hitting on the girls. I had a girlfriend who helped me get here and I had a 24hr surveillance camera on me and it will be shown live on international tv. Even though I was far away from home.

Hollywood studios....... 10:00am

We parked infront of a very big hall. We got down and walked in and there to our surprise was Angelina Jolie!

Oh my! Angelina Jolie is in the same room with me right now and I haven't passed out yet. This is going to be amazing.

Everyone looked excited.

(Nikki): she is my role model. I can't believe I am here with the hit woman.

(Sue): we entered and I was like save me! It's Angelina Jolie. She is here. This show just got better.

(Catherine ): for once I thought I was dreaming but there it was Angelina Jolie right here with me. Mama, you've got to see this.

(Jayson): Almost everyone was dying because of Angelina Jolie and I was like duh. I am going to become more famous than her. Just wait.

I have never in my life thought of meeting Angelina Jolie. She was with two other guys.

"Good morning, everyone"

Her voice was so angelic. It was like the queen of the south.......whoever that is.

"We are going to begin interviewing you guys to make sure we selected competent people for the show. I was called yesterday afternoon so I don't really have enough questions and the few I have are difficult. So meet you in the panelling room."

It sounded to me like the panicking room because I began to panic again. I was the last person to be called . I had a yellow which means all those ahead of me did better. If the confident Rihanna was number 12, what about the 11 before her. I even think it was because of me 21 people were selected instead of 20.

They went in and came out. Others smiling to show success and others also came out shaking their heads to show failure. They called alphabetically so my name wasn't yet mentioned. Jack Ryan came out smiling. It boosted my confidence but when Lady San See came out crying all hope was lost.

"Next?"

I walked into the room where Angelina Jolie and her two assistants were.

"Anthonio Sullivan right? "

"Yes miss"

"You were the last to be selected and that was out of pardon right?"

That killed the little confidence left in me.

"Yes miss Jolie"

"OK. Your details say, you attend Yale and that is one of the best colleges in the states. What grades did you use to acquire or gain admission. Or you were pardoned."






Hmm. What is going to happen next on the Gamut? Is Anthonio going to pull through the auditions? Let's see what will happen next. Vote for your favourite contestants by commenting their names. Love you all. XOXO
