Boy, I Can Hear You

🎵 10 ❤️

Jennifer's P.O.V,

"I..I am o..okay." I shuttered again. Oh gosh! Screw me! I am absolutely okay. Yeah.

Kabir laughed. I gave him angry look and said, "W..What's funny here?"

"You should ask what's not." John said with a smirk on his face. He was checking all instruments over and over again. He wanted everything perfect in our performance. So did we all.

"John! Can y..you please s..shut up?"

I was really screwed up. Why can't I be little calm?  I was jogging one end to another again and again. Then I sat down. Without my realization I started chewing my nails. gosh! I could feel the tension in me. But that was not my fault. It was that day for which we took preparation for a long time. If, by any chance,I or any of us would make any mistake, our all of pur hardworks would be drained. 

Suddenly I felt someone caressing  my hair. I looked up and saw Kabir standing beside me. When I looked at him, he gave a tight-lipped smile. I knew he was trying to say, "Don't worry. Everything will be fine." I smiled back. My lips were shaken a little because of nervousness. "Thanks." I said. His smile always gave a me warm feelings. There was something in his smile, in his eyes..........Those could give you so much comfort. I didn't know why but his one smile gave me lot of confidence that moment. 

"Hey Kabir! Come here..." I got startled hearing John's voice. Kabir's face turned to John. That time I realized that I was staring at Kabir. Oh my god!  I turned red. What was happening with me? Gosh!

It was 9 o'clock in the morning. We were all gathered at my place, for our final practice. The inter college music competition was in the evening. We all had to reach at "hall" at 4 P.M. The competition would be started at 7 P.M. 

"Okay I will call you later." Rocky entered the room. He put down the phone from his ears and looked at us.  "So, everything is okay?"

I rolled my eyes and said, "You are late."

"As always." He winked at me and sticked his toungue. He was always the last person who reached the said place. The word "Puntuality" was not in his disctionary. Or, he have no sence about time. 

"Guys, leave all this. I got to know a awesome news." He said spreading his hands dramatically. "This year, the competiontion will be telecasted in local channel on T.V. We will be on T.V guys." He grinned like a stupid.

I widened my eyes and raised my brows. Then I said slowly, "And the awesome news is.........." I stretched the last words. I was praying what he said was not true. 

"Jenni, this is the awesome news." Rocky said narrowing his eyes.

"Oh no!" I freaked out. "This is not an awesome news stupid. This is the worst one. If I make any mistake, thousand of people is going see them. OH gosh!"

"Stop Jenni! Why do we think we will make mistakes? We will do best. We HAVE to do the best." John uttered sternly.

"I...I hope so." I said nervously.

"Yes we will for sure. And this year, drum-master Kabir is here. So, I don't think we have to take much tension." Rocky said and patted Kabir's back. 

Then John said, "Okay friends. We don't have much time. So,Let's start our final practice. And hey... where's Lola? Where is this trouble maker roaming around now?" John made a 'How-much-irritating-this-girl-is' face.

I said, "Lola went to collect our costumes for today's competition." 

Yes! This was a important thing. To be successful in this competition, we must have to look good and gorgeous on stage.
