This long over due! The next chapters will be longer and have multiplee POVs since I want the first 8 to be single POVs. Thank you for waiting and thank you for (Whaleseal1123) for helping remind me to write this!


Tam POV

I was sitting underneath a large willow tree with Linh. She held her phone to me, the lyrics of the most famous song: Do you hear the people singing? Was playing out loud. She was humming and singing along with the song. Her eyes were close and she looked just like our mother when she immersed herself in their music. Too bad our mother was too selfish to view her children as equals. I sighed, my mind was wandering and I didn't like that. When my mind wandered, my thoughts often turned strange and strange thoughts for others were bad thoughts for me.

"The blood of martyrs will water the meadows of France!" Linh smiled and clicked her phone off. Her eyes were sparkling like the sun. "Hey Tam, who are you going to audition for?"

"No one." Linh frowned. "Remember I am the background boy."

"No but you signed up for the class so you have to be someone. That was one of the conditions of signing up for the class."

"Wait... you didn't tell me this."

"I know!" I glared at Linh, her smile so innocent washing away all my exploding fury that was ready to unleash towards her. She clicked her phone back on and pulled someone out. It was Russel Crowe dressed up as someone whom I didn't want to know. "You should be Javert! I totally see you as Javert! You woud be awesome as Javert! Tam c'mon!"

I frowned at her. Wasn't Javert a policeman? And wasn't the last thing I wanted was the police finding out who I am?
