DISGUISE

Chapter : 10

Autumn switched off her mobile and sat there totally devastated.
She was constantly checking her bag only to get disappointed every time.

Meanwhile...

Eric finished his first song and started talking to the audience.

Y'all know that I don't write love songs very often but this album has one.*He said*

Coffee!!Coffee!!! *Audience started screaming*

Y'all must be wondering why I chose this name?*He asked the audience*

The audience started saying different things that all went gibberish at the end..

Okay..okay lemme tell you the reason *Eric giggled*

Coffee is something that boosts our energy right? *Eric said and paused for a while*

Though I was confused who gives me more energy, coffee or MY LOVELY FANS*he said while pointing towards the audience*

The audience went crazy for him.

This one's dedicated to THE BEST FANDOM EVER, I love you all so much * He said and prepared himself to sing while playing the guitar*

Susan looked at him from backstage just to check if he needed anything.
He gave a thumbs-up sign and started singing the song.

His eyes were wandering among the audience just to find one person.

He failed and closed his eyes to feel the song even more.

Susan didn't know about the whole matter but she knew that he looking for someone.
She couldn't see him like that anymore, she went directly to the tour manager.

Excuse me, can you please confirm if everyone who won the contest is there in the audience or not? *Susan asked him*

Wait a min* The manager said*

After calling a few people he said
"One Girl named...*what's her name again?*he asked someone he was on a call with*

But... Autumn.
Yeah, Autumn isn't here but she was there at the hotel where the rest of the contest winners were staying.
Our team has confirmed the list of people who came to London, there were only 20 people but one is missing here today.
But why you're asking all this? Any emergency?
*He asked Susan*

No, I was just assuring, I mean I have to check everything for the meet and greet that's why..*She said and fake laughed*

She went outside and saw the security guards.

Is there anyone who checked in without a pass or you might have missed it? Maybe by mistake? Just asking don't worry even if you did let anyone in without the pass*She asked politely to the guards*

No, ma'am, we could never do that even sometimes we even see our friends and known people but never let anybody in without the pass. It could risk everyone's life*The guards said*

I trust you, I was just asking because one contest winner is missing and she was at the hotel so we're a bit worried.*Susan said*

Contest Winner?*One guard said*

You see that girl, she was saying that she lost her pass, she was telling us to check the list or something*He said and pointed towards Autumn*

Autumn was sitting there alone looking down and whispering the song's lyrics that Eric was singing inside*

Au..Autumn?*Susan called out her name*

Autumn turned around to look at her.

Can you please come here?*Susan said politely*

Autumn closed the chains of her bag and literally ran towards Susan.

Susan.*She said in shock*

Do you know me?*Susan questioned*

I binge watch Eric's videos all day, of course, I know you..*Autumn said excitedly*
*She realised what she just said*

I mean.. Umm, yes*she was embarrassed*

You're one of the contest winners?*Susan asked*

Yeah, yes and that's what I was telling them, that I had my ticket and I am not lying, I just lost it somewhere*Autumn said quickly*

Well, you're lucky that the contest organisers take care of their people so much that they knew you were missing.*Susan lied*

We are allowing you this time but don't be so clumsy and irresponsible ever again*Susan said*

And..*Susan was saying something but Autumn interrupted her and said.

What? Really? Thank you so much, Susan*Autumn shook her hands and ran inside out of Pure excitement*.

Susan sighed thanked the security guards and went backstage.

Tour volunteer helped Autumn to reach her place.

Grace!*she said and patted on her back*

Grace and jack both turned around *

Omg Autumn where the hell you were?*She asked her*

I was on the wrong side, I didn't know it was the wrong side though *She lied*

Hey jack, really nice to meet you *Autumn said*

This hoodie is dope *Jack said and hugged her*

Thanks, somebody didn't like it though?*she said while teasing Grace*

If you two are done can we please listen to Eric for a while *Grace said*

Susan was watching Eric, to make sure how he was doing now.

Eric finished his song called COFFEE*as his eyes were still closed because he was so attached to the song*

It was literally pin-drop silence for a moment when everyone finished singing COFFEE along with Eric as it was a really emotional song.

I LOVE THIS SONG *Autumn shouted*

Eric opened his eyes and his glance stopped when he realised that it was none other than Autumn.

He giggled, looked away and again looked at Autumn.
