THE CALL
Sitting in her room was Millie, the nerdy nerd, 17 year old, frustrated teen, trying to fix her broken goosey spectacles, fed up , with a thump on the table she got up ,walked to the nearby mirror, she had in her giant four-walled palace room with just a space to fit her and her creaky bed, alongside the table .
Tears rolling down her beautiful brown eyes she observed herself on the mirror "What a pathetic creek i was to think of joining them " ,ringed her so-called wordy mind , restlessly returned to her bed and dozed off just to be woken up by her loud shouting ,rose-tinted ,adamant alarm continuing to be the antique piece ,so reluctant to just shut off.
Abiding by the rules ,setting up her bed reaching out to her goosey spectacles she unknowingly thumped on a package at her table , her eyes not so rubbish made her react to the amazing ,long-awaited gift she had been wanting since 5 years , the best replacement for her goosey spectacles, 'the contact lens'. Breaking open the door she ran downstairs to jump hold on her mom, dad who at the table were busy setting up meals for their beloved hope , their Millie and their not so good for anything ,their younger son steel ,
"momma ,dadda thank you so much ,I really wanted one and you know, my spectacles had just resigned from its duty yesterday".
Her mom laughed at her cranky joke , hugged her to murmur
"Happy Birthday my dear may you achieve heights to become a doctor soon ".
The sudden smile on Millie's face had left traces , approaching towards her dad and getting to hear the same monotonous tune ,she just retired to her room to put on with her daily schedule.
Sitting a moment on her bed she pulled out a letter hidden under her pillow, opened up ,
"Oh!, gosh, how can I just show it to them" in her hand was the result of her exam of medicine and grades out of expectations, not adequate to get admitted anywhere,.
The knock at the door , hurried her to fold in the letter hastly and throw it down, under her bed.
It was her brother steel,
"were you planning something spooky sister?. What did you hide? "
For that Millie said
,"Yes indeed, I was planning to murder you, So was listing your schedule to finish hands on it smoothly".
Listening to it he giggled and replied
"You might be really jealous and would really have your thoughts into action after hearing to what I will say, Mil, I wanted to share something serious, something that's
for my future "
She nodded willingly, he went on
" you know, I'm not interested to study, so I recently had applied to a company willing to join , it's a company hosting singers,I had applied for audition and was called on to perform on 2nd of this month, now yesterday I got a call to inform me that I had been selected and was asked to leave for Vancouver within a month".
She asked," what is the probability of it being true and why, travel so far from Rome and its expenses is it even affordable to us?.
"Sister the company is well-known, 'Buta- star' and travel expenses handled by the company, but the problem is ,how to please mom and dad and also that at the expense of schooling , will they allow?"
Millie didn't answer ,she asked steel to talk on it at afternoon with her, and she left for the place she had kept secret from her parents.
Reaching the destination, standing in front of the shop she headed in with a sigh , placing an envelope at the reception she said, " I am ready for the job ,will you let me in and pay accordingly ?"
The lady there smirked and replied,
"The costume is downstairs, put on and stand on the most crowded town area" .
