The Audition

'Wiping the tears from my eyes, I decided that enough was enough. I had cried enough, I had drank enough and my physical appearance could tell the story. With swollen eyes, hair like a bird nest and a head splitting headache I made my way to work.

Thinking about what happened the night before I feel the unwelcome tears rolling down again. At that point I began laughing, because what strong woman would I be if I couldn't handle a little hurt. Laughing and crying at the same time caused a few persons to be looking a me like I just left rehab.

Dressed in a black high waist jeans, a white V cut blouse showing my lovely twin sisters and a turquoise cardigan was the look for today. Ofcourse my hair was a mess and my face likewise, I could care less.

Stepping into the building everyone could know something is wrong because my head wasn't lifted once, neither did I tell anyone 'good morning'. Nothing wasn't fucking good about the morning anyway. Dumping my bag on the small couch and sitting in my chair Kady came in with all her glory, literally! A coffee in her left hand, a cheesy croissant sandwich in the other and ofcourse her homemade liquor in a small bottle.

I couldn't help but smiled as she closed the office door and draped me in her arms. Her hugs always made me feel better, she would make me feel safe and that I could trust that she'll always be here. 'Whose fucking body should I bury cause someone pissed off my bestfriend!' she said. I laughed so hard the tears began to fall again, and this time I let them.

I told her about the man I loved, and how he took my heart and crushed it and gave it back to me. We were together for four years, I became pregnant but I miscarried. After that everything went down hill as I immersed myself into work and became damn good at it. I had rented an apartment for us, only to come home one day to find him and a pregnant bitch snuggled together on MY couch. He didn't even flinch when he saw me, all Leanzo said was 'Oh, you're home early', I smiled because that was the only reaction I could muster.

After a good minute and couple seconds, I replied 'yea, no overtime today'. I went straight to the refrigerator took out a bottle of iced water and poured it on the both of them! One, don't disrespect me in my own house!!... well technically its mine cause I'm paying for it. Two, have some fucking respect!!

I didn't even realize that the pregnant chick was screaming until I heard a vase broke, and that's when shit got real. I took out a taser I'd always been carrying and tased him while he was trying to calm her down. 'What the fuck you crazy bitch' I smiled and told her she hadn't seen nothing yet. She ran out the door leaving Leanzo and I alone in the Living room. I quickly packed his bag and asked him to leave.
After taking my virginity and loving me only he knew how..or I thought he did.

This is the outcome, but that's not the worst part. While leaving he said 'no wonder why our child didn't survive inside you, you make me sick!'. That's all it took for me to start screaming and breaking things while crying at the same time. I can't believe he used it against me!...

Looking at Kady with tears lining my face, she was smiling I was like 'the fuck you smiling about?!'. 'I'm smiling because despite that, you're still able to tell your story and show up for work, that proves how strong of a woman you are. As for Leanzo and what he said, he can always suck my dick! Oh, and Sean's dick too'... Man that did the trick as I laughed so hard that I started loosing breath. Sean is a close gay friend of ours who always knows what's going on in everybody's life.

Anyways, looking at kady in her bodycon dress she's pretty sexy I mean, she's slender but has a little weight, nice size boobs and golden eyes. Me on the other hand is the shorter version of her, I stand at 5"2 perfect size boobs, 27" waist and 38" hips didn't look so bad on me with my grey eyes.

Its 9:30 and you have an audition in 15 minutes, get your act together boo.' 'Shit', I didn't realize how long we were talking. I am the head of an agency, the best in the country I might add. If anyone had a big show, music video or play to showcase I am their go to gal.

Born and raised in Kingston,Jamaica but now residing in California for the past decade. I Serene Delawere didn't come out bad I presume, gulping down the coffee and making my way through the sandwich I was beginning to feel better. Kady came in with a hairbrush and makeup supplies, so I made use of that.

It's now 9:45 and I'm called to the room by my secretary Jazz, that girl got spunk I tell you. There is this strong aura about her that I absolutely adore. Sitting at the head of the table I began looking through the file that was left for me. Jim Witherspoon a well known author wants to put his ink to screen and is seeking a well built African American man for the lead actor and a curvy female for the lead actress.

614 applications for the lead actor and 501 applications for the lead actress. I phoned Jazz telling her to bring a strong black coffee, a slice of cake and another sandwich. This was going to be one heck of a day, after Kady does screening one whoever passed they'll be sent to me and Clark for the final call.

It's now 1:42 and I've seen two potential lead actresses but none for the Male lead. I start to get agitated as we are already behind schedule seeing that he wants names by 9am tomorrow. Sighing I took the cake and started to eat.

Clark entered and exited, I honestly didn't even know he was here half the time. He's very observant, keen on detail but hardly speaks. I don't mind at all, he always gets the job done. 'Next' I called, entering the room is hulk himself! Believe me I'm not exaggerating, even Clark had to do a double take. Dressed in a fitted black pants, plaid button up shirt with the first three buttons unbuttoned showed exactly what he had to offer. His face was drawn to perfection, chocolate brown eyes and full lips.... this man is fine.

Clearing my throat an introduction was done, he was Dwayne Moore. He did a couple commercials here and there, experienced in plays too plus he had a perfect accent and tone. I gave him the script and he and Clark roleplayed.

I was taken aback as to how he expressed each word spoken, he paused where necessary and raised his voice when needed. He nailed it! But he didn't know because I scrunched up my nose and sighed. 'Thank you for your time Mr.Moore, look forward to a call or email regarding this audition.'

He then came up to me grabbed my hand, looked into my eyes and said, 'No, thank you for your time Ms Delavere'. Kissing my hand he winked at Clark and left.

Clark topped over laughing saying that my expression was priceless but he had no idea what was going on the inside. I felt a pull towards him that shouldn't even be there. After pulling himself together he decided that he's done for the day because he found the lead actor
