Chapter 1: The Band
844 Words
It was a sunny afternoon in North Carolina. I was lying on my bed doing nothing but to stare at my white and pink ceiling. I almost run out of ideas to have fun and make the most out of my summer.
The school semester will start again real soon. I get off my bed frustrated and mad because i don't know what to do to have fun.
I checked my phone.
*ting* oh, my friend Josh messaged me.
For sure, he will just tell me about what happened between Mavy and him. Urgh! I'm not in the mood to talk to anyone.
I ignored it. *ting*
*ting* another message from Josh popped up.
I turned off my cellphone. Go to my bathroom and stay on my bath tub for a while.
Nothing's more better than this.. Sometimes i need a little break tho. Maybe i should stop thinking and just meditate for this day. :))
* F L A S H B A C K *
"Hey, come on! She's just a friend.." Jay explained.
But I refused to believe. Who is f*****g dumb guy who will chat other girls being sweet and hearts without something, right?? I am not gonna tolerate this s**t.
Jay is loving and caring. And because of him being too sweet he became sweet to other girls too. I don't think it is normal!
We are in a relationship for f**k's sake! He is taken. He should know his limits and commitment. Ugh!
"Leave me alone, Jay. You don't even think about my feelings when you're doing that." I said to his face not even blinking.
But i know to myself I am close to crying.
I'm not gonna lie though. I admit it really hurts to be neglected. Like it seems that your feelings are not valid enough to change his ways.
* END OF FLASHBACK *
I opened my eyes. Oh, there's a tear but nevermind. I should focus on good things to have fun and enjoy my last few days of summer vacation.
I won't waste my time being sad on that stupid jerk.
I continued my bath. And while I am dressing up, I'm still think what should I do. Maybe I should go shopping instead.
*Cellphone rings*
*Josh is calling*
I frowned and wonder why he's still calling so i answered it immediately.
"Hey..?"
"Hey, G. Why aren't you answering my calls??"
"Uhm, i'm sorry i'm just busy-"
"Nawp, you're not busy for this, Gi."
I frowned again and wonder what was he talking about. I sit on my bedside while wiping my wet hair.
"What are you talking about, Josh?"
I hope it's not about his lovelife. I'm tired of hearing cringy stuff his been doing for the girl he's courting, Mavi. I rolled my eyes just by the thought of it.
"I don't know you are good at singing!"
"Hey, just straight to the point!" I shouted impatiently.
Yeah, i admit i know how to sing and confident that I have good voice. Pfft. Self-proclaimed, B. That's just how I am. Come on, no one's gonna be your big fan, but only you to yourself. Why not!?
"W-whoa! Calm down right there, G! What's yo problem??"
Ugh! This guy can't understand simple things. I just told him to f*****g straight up to his point and here he is.
I took deep breathe and close my eyes. I should focus on good things, B. Don't ruin your Monday.
" Go on. Just tell what you want, Josh. You're wasting my time right here." I said it calmly.
"Told you, it's not a waste of tim-"
" JUST f*****g TOLD ME, JOSH! WHAT THE FUC-?"
He even have the audacity to laugh. Oh my God!
"Okay okay fine! Calm the f**k down, Gi!" He said while still laughing.
I just waited for what he is about to say.
"Soo, our band is looking for a sub vocalist. And you will be our vocalist for tomorrows rehearsal."
What?
"Na-a-ahh. You can't refused me. Deal!? Okay deal!" He added.
"Hey, Mavi's better in singing than me. I don't even know how to perform in a band, Josh! Stop foolong around, Haha!" I said.
"Nooope, i know it's what you wanted. Maybe it's a good start right? Plus, it is just a rehearsal so no pressure. We'll just jam and enjoy, Woo-hooo!" He said happily.
Yeah, he's right I can't refuse him. Maybe he's annoying but he is a good friend of mine.
Buuuut what happened to my confidence!? Yea it is also true that I want to be a vocalist of a band. But never in my entire life that I expect to make this come true.
Oh, Gigi! Don't overreact. You're just a sub vocalist and will not perform on-stage. Relax, Big Head!
I laughed at the thought of it. Yearight! It's just a jamming. Not a concert or what. But whatever, it makes me excited though!
But for today, Imma go shopping. I am gonna buy for tommorrow's ootd ?
Here I come!
