The Rockstar

Chapter 1 : Concert Hall

(Jennifer's POV)

After many years, I am going to New York. It was the place where I lost my love, my feelings, my world and everything. This flight journey is too boring and I couldn’t focus on my sleep even though the moon is playing in its own way. My mind is preoccupied with many thoughts and a lot of things revolving in my head. The smile, and that damn look flashing in the mind of my mistaken love makes me to think about that stupid lovable past again.

 PAST - #8 years ago#

“George!! Breakfast is ready. Come down.” I shouted.

“Coming darling.” George replied.

George uncle is one of my favourite people in the universe. I love the way he cares me. He is my dad M.R. Jonathan Rodriguez (one of the famous musicians in the west)'s best friend as well as relative and was settled in New York. I used to call him as George since my childhood and we are more like friends rather than Uncle-Kid relation. I was grown up in Texas with my mom as my dad kept travelling the world for business purpose and I kept my complete focus on Music. Yes, my dream is to become a famous lead singer. My mom died when I was 16 and I was depressed a lot. I didn’t focus on anything so I left Texas with George for New York. I was trained in New York by many top singers and on my 18th birthday we decided to do my debut music album.

As we decided the day came and I was scared and nervous. I kept practicing for many years but I was really afraid to sing infront of so many people. Everyone knew about my father and so many are enthusiastic about my singing which made me nervous more.

"Happy birthday darling.” George wished.

“Thanks George.”

“Seems you are thinking about evening’s concert.”

“You know George I am really scared. I turned 18 today and going to sing infront of many people. We will do it next year George. I am really afraid.”

“We can’t do like that. Remember you are the daughter of the great musician. Your voice is blessed. Don’t worry everyone will love your album.”

After few hours, we reached the concert hall and I saw a lot of people gathered there. I went to my room and relaxed a bit. It’s time I must show up myself to everyone. I saw paparazzi all around the hall.

With confidence, I reached the stage and everyone kept shouting my name. I looked at George and he gave an assured look. With that I addressed everyone

“Hello New York. This is for you.”

I started singing and after few minutes everyone involved in my song and enjoying themselves. I finished the album and walked to George.

“George! How's it?”

“It was amazing. Look at the audience. They are struggling to get your autograph. It’s gonna be a big hit. Soon your name will be on one of the top most singers.”

After that, we walked out the hall and everyone kept asking me selfies. In all the flashlights, photographs and all the chaos I saw him. From then, my life was changed. He stood among the people and kept staring at me. That look strike straight to my heart and I was attracted to him just like iron attracts to magnet. I couldn’t take my eyes away from his deep blue ocean eyes. And that smile.... I can’t forget that in my entire life. He got a dimple across his left cheek which made him look more cute and sweet.

After few minutes, we left the place remembering his face.

That night went weird with dreams about his smile. Perhaps, I was attracted to his eyes and smile. I know it's just a crazy feeling about some random cute dude, which most of the girls feel after seeing such cute faces. But the thing is..... I felt it more than just a normal thing.

                                                  .......................

 I woke up the next morning and started for labels.

“George I am going to labels.”

“But I have work Jen.”

“I am not asking you to come George. I am giving you the information.”

“Alone? No. You are not going. I will ask Matt to come here.”

“George I am 18. Did you forget?”

“Yeah 18 since yesterday. I remember. But no means no.”

“George I will be back within few hours. Don’t worry about me.”

With that I ran outside the door and started the car.

“Jen. Jen. Wait!!!!!” George shouted but I already drove off.

After few minutes, I reached Zach Labels which is a famous concert organisation and production house of many albums. Zach uncle is one of the friends of my dad as well as to George. At present, Matthew runs the labels. Matt is Zach’s son and my friend since childhood. He is my senior and went to school with me in Texas. After few years, he settled in New York. Now he is looking after his dad’s labels.

"Hey Matt!!”

“Hey J!! I’ve been waiting for you for the past 2 hours “replied Matt.

"Before I apologise for my late arrival, I am here to ask you a question. Why didn’t you come to my concert yesterday?"

“J!! I am so sorry. I started to come but unfortunately few foreign clients came and so....”

“Stop. Don’t utter any word. I am so angry at you.”

“Cool J. I will not miss your next albums. In fact, your dad decided that we must organise your next album under Zach labels.”

“For that you have to wait for few months. I have my modelling work.”

“Model as well as singer. You are great J"

“Praising to cool me. Not working Matt.”

After few minutes chat I said bye and left his cabin.
