Changing Directions

Chapter 7 part 1

RECAP:

"Eric was cheating on me with Phebe." I choked out.

"Its okay sweetie. You don't need them, look on the bright side. The audition is tomorrow and you are going to make it. Trust me." he pulled me into a hug before hopping in the car. Since San Fransisco was only an hour away, I just went to bed once I got home.

I woke up the next morning with puffy eyes. Luckily, my makeup covered it up along with a few pimples here and there. I looked gorgeous when I looked at myself in the mirror. Maybe i'll find someone so I can forget about Eric and Phebe once and for all. 

Ch.7 part 1:

"Sara, up." El spoke softly next to me. I grunted in response and rolled over.

"Come on Sara, get up." Her voice had a hint of demand in it. I once again grunted and threw a pillow over my head. The next thing I knew, I felt a cold splash of ice on top of me. Hair drenched and clothes soggy, I sat up and glared at El. She had a huge grin on her face with a bucket swinging in her hands.

"Get up sleepy head." She cheerfully added as she skipped out of my room.

I shook my hair, letting some of the water on my head shower onto my floor. A quick shower woke me up the most. I stepped in and started rushing to wash my hair and body so I could get to the audition in time. As I got out of the shower and started to get dress, I realized I haven't rehearsed my song yet. I plugged in my phone and switched it to Queen. Before the song started, I did a quick vocal warm up and I was ready.

Can anybody find me somebody to love? 

Each morning I get up I die a little 

Can barely stand on my feet 

Take a look in the mirror and cry 

Lord what you're doing to me 

I have spent all my years in believing you 

But I just can't get no relief, Lord! 

Somebody, somebody 

Can anybody find me somebody to love? 

I work hard every day of my life 

I work till I ache my bones 

At the end I take home my hard earned pay all on my own - 

I get down on my knees 

And I start to pray 

Till the tears run down from my eyes 

Lord - somebody - somebody 

Can anybody find me - somebody to love? 

(He works hard) 

Everyday - I try and I try and I try - 

But everybody wants to put me down 

They say I'm goin' crazy 

They say I got a lot of water in my brain 

Got no common sense 

I got nobody left to believe 

Yeah - yeah yeah yeah 

Oh Lord 

Somebody - somebody 

Can anybody find me somebody to love? 

Got no feel, I got no rhythm 

I just keep losing my beat
