Yes! Today they are having auditions for the pantomime. I'm totally going to audition for Felicity's role.(aka Darrel's little sister) And Malaysia is auditioning for that busy-body April's role of Darrell. Wouldn't it be so cool if Malaysia and I got to be sisters, although just in an act?

We met April at the audition line and she started non stop apologising and saying that she and Autumn was just curious. But this time I just ignored her. They didn't deserve my forgiveness. At least, not yet.

''Not a bit. Still, you'll be having a wonderful time yourself going off to the University.'' I said with the best impression of Felicity I had.

''Stop!'' announced Miss Tsareena.

"We will be announcing the parts after we have finalised the decisions." announced the drama teacher, Ms. Tsareena.

"Please take a seat on the empty benches." said the director, a plump, jolly senior.

I took out my air pods and cell phone and listened to some songs while drumming a beat with my fingers.

"Please gather! We have decided on the parts." A tall sophomore, Dawn Lake announced.

"The part of Felicity goes to Amanda Ling. The part of Susan goes to Violet Bush. The part of June goes to Abigail Laws! The part of Alicia goes to Sarah Jane! The part of Mamzelle goes to Pamela Wert! The part of Nora goes to Nora Tessell! The part of Sally goes to Autumn Han! And lastly, the part of Darrell goes to April Tan!"

"WHAT? REALLY?! YAY!" I screamed.

(Until I realised that Malaysia did not make it in. She dragged me aside.)

"It's all because of you, you little brat Amanda!" Malaysia screamed furiously. "I would have got the part if you didn't keep following me everywhere and distracting me from my script! All I wanted from you is to ditch your silly old friends. There would be so much drama! Did I mention that I like drama? Anyways I'll find a way to get the part from April someway or another. And if you didn't understand that, It meant: we're through!"

After she stormed out on me, I burst into tears and ran out of the auditorium. I headed to the only place I knew I would have privacy - our dorm toilet, there I cried my tears away in the shower. ( because it was free time ) 

After my shower, I hid in the kitchen instead. All of a sudden, there was a knock on the door. It was April and Autumn asking to come in. As they did so, I ran to hug them and apologised to them for my behaviour and promised that it would never happen again.
