The next morning , i got to school early hoping to have some spare time to apologize to Zoey during the morning announcement and i did, we ended up talking things out and we both put the past behind . For once i actually listened to the announcement today.
Today was my first time at drama club and since I've stage fright am praying to get stage crew duty, i really hope my drama teacher Mrs Becks answers my prayers.
*****************
MRS BECKS: welcome , my little butterflies are you ready to sore ?, i know i am.
REEN: has this woman had some of Zoey's medicine? .
DASK: nope, that's Mrs Becks for you always over dramatic.
REEN: wh...a...what are you doing here?
DASK: well is drama club.
REEN: your point?
DASK: am the drama king in this school . I've the lead role in the play.
REEN: oh, right your the one whose mum was a famous actress . omg.. am sorry i shoul.....
DASK: is OK ! am proud of my mum , that's why am following in her foot steps. and is that all you remember about me?
REEN: yes, i think so.
DASK: T or D night , the kiss.
REEN: nope! doesn't ring a bell.
DASK: really?, you want me to do it again?, maybe it will jug your memory.
REEN: oh, that T or D , don't worry i remember perfectly, so anyways is really amazing that you want to follow your mum foot steps.
DASK: yes, so what brings you here, from that your epic viral video, i figured you'll might be a competition, seeing you stole the show at the club.
REEN: oh, you saw that video.
DASK: you kidding me, everyone saw that video, their calling you Angel Wings.
REEN: what , why, would they call me Angel Wings, I taught they will call me something bad like epic fail or peukzilla.
DASK: no, they mostly focused on your singing and dancing on stage .
REEN: so no one saw me throw up into Mee-Chu hats?
DASK: oh, they did , they just didn't care that much and Chu told everyone that you were ill that's why.
REEN: Chu did that?
DASK: yup, his a nice guy.
MRS BECKS: everyone on stage , were going to do some warms ups.............and 1 .................and 2..................and...................3. OK! that's enough,so you'll know that the school play is next month and we already have our lead actor Dask Drewer [Mrs Becks pauses for second as she notices me standing next to Dask] and we just found our lead actress Angel Wings .
REEN: huh! what! me, Mrs Becks please , i can't be the lead role ....i can't even act.
MRS BECKS: nonsense , i saw the video .
REEN: you did?
MRS BECKS: yes, i did , i know how to use the internet, my phone and social media.
REEN: no,i didn't mean it like that , but I've stage fright and plus i wasn't quit myself on that stage if you know what i mean,[wink]
MRS BECKS: no, i don't my decision is final.
''Excuse me, Mrs Beck but i thought i was the one playing the lead actress with Dask''.
MRS BECK: am sorry Kelly , but I changed my mind you can be Reen's extra, like if anything happens to her you will fill in.
KELLY: what! but she doesn't even know the lines nor those she want the part for God's sake.
REEN: right , Mrs Beck let her have her part back.
MRS BECK: girls, am not having this discussion anymore my decision is final, class dismissed.
[Mrs Beck storms out]
KELLY: you BITCH!, you think you can just walk in here and steal my spot , well i just hope nothing will happen to you before the play, that will be a shame ..for you that is[she walks away].
REEN: what! just happened ?.
DASK: hey!, Reen you coming?.
REEN: coming.
DASK: don't let Kelly get to you alright , am sure you'll be great for the part.
REEN: not really, i have stage fright .
DASK: but the video.
REEN: i was on drugs when i did that.
DASK: whoa!,so what you going to do?
REEN: i don't know, i guess i have to rehearse or i fail, Mrs Becks made that very clear.
DASK: don't worry , i'll help you.
