You might be wondering who I am. I'm Kate. College dropout, struggling musician. It's just me and my guitar. And my roommate, Sasha.

Sasha is the best. I contribute to the rent, depending on the lose change I get by playing on street corners. Sasha does everything else. She buys food and toiletries. She bought furniture for the house and pays for basic cable and Netflix.

She's a background Broadway actress. Yes, I did say Broadway. We live in NYC. Our apartment is really nice (since Sasha is pretty much rich, considering we live in NYC.) And then there's her boyfriend.

His name is Bryce. He's also an actor for Broadway. He's crazy hot, but not my type. He's too protective for my taste. Plus, he's Sasha's. I could never do that to her. She's my best friend.

That day I had my audition, she was auditioning for Waitresses. She was auditioning for Dawn. It was her first big part she was going to go out for. Bryce was going out for Earl, another main character.

Now she sits at my bed side. She's crying and clutching my hand. Bryce is there, too. His hand sits on my other hand squeezing it sometimes.

Sasha sniffs and says "Bryce and I both made it to callbacks." I wanted to congratulate her, but my body didn't move. Sasha starts to cry again. Bryce squeezed my hand again.

"Please, please come back." He murmurs. I want to! I tried to scream, but no. I didn't move. Not even a little.

After a while, Bryce gets up and walks over to Sasha. She lets go of me and hugs Bryce. Their footsteps fade and they're gone.

And I'm alone.
