Dear diary

Somethin' new.

" Writing in your diary again?" Josh said chewing gum.

" You know me!" I cheered.

" Just the people I was looking for! " she said standing in between of us and putting her hands on our shoulders.

" Ms. Lela, uh hi " I smiled.

" What's up?" Josh asked.

" Glad that you asked. There is something I need you to do for me. You know how we have a play at the end of the year and producers and various other members for several acting universities come and see us perform? "

" Ofcourse...it changes lives." I chuckled.

" Indeed, yeah so about the play I have to go visit my parents.... my dad hasn't been keeping well so I won't be here to take some of the rehearsals."

" Wait, so are you going to cancel the play?" Josh asked

" No no please don't, is there anything we can do to help?" As I continued.

" Yes there is, since I won't be here you guys get to manage everything from sets, directing, choreo, the songs, some writing to even casting the play, absolutely anything you want. You just have to get it approved by me."

" Woah that's so cool" Josh said smiling at me.

" Wait if we're gonna make the casting calls that means we won't get to be a part of it. Josh we don't get to act."

" Umm that might be a problem since Brooke is looking forward to perform infront of the scouts." Josh said looking worried.

" Exactly, Ms. Lela, I can't afford not to act in the play..I have to. This can get me into any college I want but if I don't act...what will the scouts even see? How will I get to impress them?" I sighed.

No no ! I need this. I need this to happen. I need to act in this.

" Yes yes you are right and there's no problem at all, Ms. Walton tells me the both of you make a great team and you're the best we have here. The both you have been chosen. You guys should be happy right now." She explained.

" But, but what is the use of doing everything and making everything happen if we don't get to actually perform...the only thing the scouts are gonna see is the various performances." I sighed. " I really really, Miss. Lela I know that you know what's best for me but, I can't risk this."

" Brooke, honey that isn't true at all, the scouts do see the performances but what's going to makes it perfect is what you guys are going to do. Remove the thought from your head that all they care about is what they're going to see on stage..they do care about that but obviously they know that the only reason why the cast will do their best is because of the both of you. Every detail in the choreography, singing or acting they do is going to be all you. Brooke I am giving this to you so you can have the best because you deserve it." She smiled patting on my back.

" Wait really? I just assumed all they cared about was the people just acting over there on stage. I am realy sorry. I'll be honored. " I said widely smiling. " But I am still a little disappointed about not getting to act."

" The both of you will do great. You guys have lots of time to make it perfect. I'll see guys in 3 weeks? I don't know but with the time about 4 or 5 or 6 months you guys have, it is going to be perfect. When I come back, I will obviously be helping you with a few things but eveything else is...you. This is the script of a play that I wrote but you guys can change it if you want. And remember, all you." she took a deep breath. " Okay bye guys! Good luck or as we say in the theatre...break a leg or legs since it's the both of you." She chuckled.

" Thanks bye!" I smiled as we waved him goodbye.

Yeah so I was a little bit sad, mad and disappointed that I don't get to be the face of it but I decided not to let it affect me. Because Ms. Lela has experience and she chose me, us and she was right, we make a great team so I decided to put on a fake smile and started thinking that it actually might be good for me.

" Let's get to work" I smiled as I heard the bell.

" Great, this is going to be so great...we get to work together."

" Yup" I chuckled.

....

" What's the play about? I didn't get a chance to read it." I said sipping on coffee as he handed me the script.

" No way! Are you kidding me right now?! Now I feel really bad we don't get to act. " I sighed.

" But on the plus side we get to direct, something I like, and you get to do something you love....being bossy and choreograph or anything you like. " he laughed.

" I'll go make the posters for auditions but for the final show we need to click pictures of the cast in costume...it'll be perfect." I sighed.

" Hey, it's okay I know you're disappointed you don't get to be in it but I promise you, we'll have alot of fun"

" Yeah, totally, I'm gonna make the posters now." I smiled.

" Great! I'll ask the art department if they can help us with sets."

...

" Here you go." I said giving him the poster.

" It's really nice."

" Yeah thanks, that's us from last year's musical by the way."

" I know that's why I said it" he laughed.

" Okay let's get to work...Go make a 100 copies of these to put around school, I'll even text Ashley and Rooney to come help us. " I commanded.

" A 100?"

" You're right make it 200" I said as he smirked. " What are you smirking about? Get to work!" I chuckled pushing him.
