the audition

“Jane whats my schedule like”? I turned only to find Chloe talking to her assistant while they both walked towards me.

Chloe looked up only for our eyes to meet for a split second.

“Miss, the audition is held on the second floor, the third door to your right”.

She said politely

“Thank you”.

I replied with a smile and turned to walk up stairs.

Sitting by the corner, I was number 127. I waited patiently as I notice everyone who went in come out within minutes.

Chloe went in next as she was contestant number 126 and she was the only actress who stayed the longest in the hall. For about ten minutes, She came out all smiling and I felt like a bucket of water was poured on me because it only mean she had landed the role.

But i was shocked that I was still called next which bosted my spirit as I gracefully walked in.

3rd person POV

A young beautiful girl walked in with so much grace and elegance. Her simple maroon gown complemented her pale skin, her face was bare only a light lipstick and she had a very slim body with the right curves which made her perfect for the role, but the problem now was can she act.

A lot of actresses are beautiful although most of them had layers and layers of make up but their acting is usually terrible.

The judges silently stared at her as she walked in and introduced her self.

“Hello everyone”.

Kyra said with a small bow as she greeted everyone, she noticed director Clark sitting in the middle while to the right was Mr John the producer, next to Mr john is the writer of this amazing scrip Mrs Lenny, while to the left is the male lead the legendary first of all the young ladies and even some oldies Lexus.

“Can we meet you”?

Director Clark said with a very serious tone.

“I am Kyra Monroe, am here to try out the role of the second female lead”.

Kyra said with so much confidence.

“Alright, lets cut to the chase shall we? have you acted before”?

“No actually its my first try sir”.

“Mm, okay lets see what you have got, act out the scene 7, were you finally met with your step sister who had you murdered, you survived but stayed hidden and surgically altered you face so no one will recognize you”.

Every one looked at director Clark as that part was one of the most difficult act to depict as it carries a lot of emotion. Even Chloe an A-lister couldn't really pull it off.

Kyra just simply smiled and nodded.

“In three, two, one action”.

Kyra bowed her head but the next moment she raised her head she was a completely different person.

She looked very calm and collected but the looked in her eye was completely unfathomable as she stared straight at the directors. Some of them could even feel shivers as they looked at her.

The aura around her and her stance fits perfectly well that director Clark actually almost forgot to end the act.

A round of applaud could be heard as Kyra finally got out of the act.

“That was amazing”.

Director Clark said as he looked at Kyra in amazement.

“What was running through your mind Kyra? Because most people will begin to shout like mad people or they will be shooting daggers from their eyes. Some of the so-called A-list actress where actually just acted rude and cold that was the best the could do but you some how gave life to the character”.

He asked with so much interest in his eye, because he has almost given up on this character since no one could do it right and he wanted nothing but perfection which is why all his movies are always award winning movies.

“I just decided to put my self in the characters shoes, I knew the pain, the confusion and betrayal the character must have felt”.

Kyra said with a little smile.

“Good, good that is how a really actor should be”.

Director Clark said as he offered Kyra a sit beside Lexus the male lead.

“Welcome to the team”

Director Clark said to Kyra as he shook her hands, he told his assistant the audition was over.

Director Clark's assistant told the other participant that the audition was over. Which caused a bit of an uproar, but was latter calmed as everyone began to leave one after the other.

Chloe assistant quickly went over to inform her that the audition was over. Chloe felt so satisfied feeling as if she had landed the spot but her assistant told her that the person who got the spot was a newbie called Kyra, which made Chloe so angry that she went back to the audition hall to ask for an explanation, as for as she was concerned she was the most qualified candidate among the participants.

“What the hell is going on here”.

Chloe said the minute she bursted through the closed door into the hall.

“And who do you think you are to ask that”.

Said director Clark as he stared at Chloe, his eyes shooting daggers at her.

“I am sorry director Clark I'm just a bit confused since I thought this role was already mine”.

“And how is that so? Have we signed any contract with you Miss Chloe? I didn't think so. Please escort Miss Chloe out of the premises”.

Director Clark said with a very cold expression. Chloe then looked at Kyra angrily, remembering the had met at the reception she vowed to deal with her and then stomped out without sparing anyone a glance.

“So sorry about that Miss Kyra”.

Director Clark said as excitement was evident in his eyes.

Mrs Lenny also gave Kyra a satisfied look while Mr John nodded with a subtle smile on his wrinkled face.

“Miss Kyra, what agency are you sighed under, so my assistant can reach you with your schedule”.

“I am sorry but I'm new to the industry but you can contact me directly for now”.

Kyra said.

“Okay, get her details and send her schedule ”.

Director Clark's assistant got all her details as the all shook hands with her,

“welcome to the crew once again Miss Monroe ”.

She walked out of the hall after their conversation ended.

Kyra was about to stop a cab when a red spot car stopped in front of her.

There was a familiar face smiling at her asking to give her a ride.

“Sure”.

Kyra said as she stepped into the car and noticed someone else in the passenger's sit. She was about to say hello but soon she realizes that her eye was getting heavy and she couldn't move.

'What was going on'.

Kyra thought to herself only to look up and she saw a devilish smirk on their faces before she finally passed out.

Within a board room Klein phone suddenly vibrated which was unusual as it was his private line and only a few people had it.

Klein raised his hand in order for the person presenting his proposal to hold on.

Turning over his phone, what he saw made him instant stand up from his sit. It was a picture of Kyra tied up in an empty room laying unconscious with a caption saying

“Surrender yourself where you killed my parent before midnight, else she dies”.
