I was even more grateful to Renee for bringing me here.I am a good singer but I have two enemies 'stage fright ' and ' critics '.Once I got so scared on stage that she literally cried and then the queen bee, Ava, made fun of me in front of everyone. They named me cry baby .I imagined myself singing in place of that girl and everyone cheering and applauding. Oh! It was all so beautiful. The girl stopped singing, everyone clapped to cheer her the loudest was me.I knew that the key to become a successful artist is encouragement that you receive from others because when you are a artist you look at yourself from others perspective . Jenna called out to Renee. Renee signed me to come along.Renee used to work her as well. Jenna asked her "What are you doing here sweetie ? I thought that you were on a break today . ""Yes I am on a break today. She is my sister Ariadne, I told you about her.""Of course you did. Hi Ariadne " She shook hands with me "Well Ariadne I must say that you are
Renee told Jenna that the singer was standing in front of her. Both Jenna and I were confused. And I was a bit irritated because Renee was not letting me speak ."What are you talking Renee? I can only see you and Ari not a singer."Oh God I suspected what was going in Renee's mind I whispered her to back off but Renee didn't listened to her "Exactly Jenna you are right! Ari is the singer . ""What?" Jenna said, she was not able to get what Renee was pointing out."Exactly what?" I whispered to Renee. Renee ignored me, again. No wonder why I was irritated."Jenna, Ari is a fantastic singer and you will see it yourself just give her a chance ."Jenna stood up "I appreciate your sentiments but we don't need a bathroom singer we need a professional singer. ""Jenna, Ari is very good, trust me. She won't let you down, try her. "Judy turned to me "What do you say? Do you think you can handle this? I must tell you that it is not a joke or a party they you guys go to. Some of the people he
"I don't drink." I told Jenna. "Trust me it will help a lot ." Jenna said pouring me a glass .The last minutes that were leading up to the show again were killing me. Just 10 minutes to go. Time was tickling back. I knew that my nervousness will screw up things again.So I had a glass of wine.Then I had another one. I was feeling better that before. Jenna was right.I went on the stage again. This time my nervousness lasted less than one minute. I realized that actually I was loving to perform .I stopped worrying about playing the songs exactly right and started rocking out with reckless abandon. I hit some wrong notes, but it was only because I was rocking out so hard.This time I could read from audience's expressions that they were also vibing. This drained away the tiny bits of nervousness that was in me. I closed my eyes and got lost in the music. I slowly opened my eyes as I finished my song. Everyone was clapping and cheering. I realized that the fear, the nervousness was
"Feeling better?" Ava asked him."I guess I do, thank you. So tell me what happened the other night . And look at my finger it seems like I punched someone.""I found you at the bar , you were with some girl.""A girl! Yes I remember there was some girl what about her.""I don't know . You were chatting with her so I left you too alone. When I was returning home I saw you on the streets. You were so drunk you were barely even able to stand. So I thought that I should drive you.""You could have dropped me at my house . "She snugged "In that condition no, you needed someone to keep an eye on you.""Did Leon have a part in any of this?""No." Her voice stammers "Why will you think that?""I don't know. I just feel like I had a talk with him last night. I remember it vaguely. ""No, I was with Leon all the time. I don't think that he met you yesterday.""Are you sure?""Of course I am, what is there to be unsure about it?""Ok, thanks for letting me stay here but I think that I should l
I tried to explain him a simple thing in an even simpler way.Ok long story cut short , I sung your song in front of a fairly large crowd without asking you. But before you get angry I just want you to know that all the appreciation that I got was actually for you. And everybody loved your song.I said in a flow and then I waited for his reaction.There was a pin drop silence between us for a while. Oh god he was definitely angry. Nobody spoke from the other side. "Still There?" I asked him"Yes, I am. ""So say something. You are freaking me out . If you are angry just tell me . I know I should have asked you but I didn't and it was all because I was so nervous.""It is fine" His voice sounded dull. "Is it?" I asked him again."I am not angry with you. It is just that I don't know how I am feeling right now, you know. I never thought that anyone but me will hear my songs because they show my vulnerable side but it is fine I was not the one on stage. ""Yes but I didn't took credit
23 July:Dear diary, last night was fun.We spent all the night watching movies, getting dressed and taking polarized pictures. And then we thought of doing something that they both have never done before. So we got drunk and shifted our kareoke from my room to the balcony. A few neighbors even stopped by to ask us to keep low but we ignored them. After all the night was supposed to be all about bad decisions.We were going crazy . Renee even drunk dialed her ex who was also Ava's present. We laughed about it for hours, I even fell on the floor laughing. We were up all night so it was not surprising that we missed the alarm. But a big surprise was waiting for us.We were sleeping, when someone knocked the door. "Who is it?" I asked throwing the pillow on the door."Keep it down Ari, can't you see I am sleeping?""So am I." Someone knocked the door again."Oh wait for the love of God. Rachel?""What?" She said snoring ."Be a lamb and go and open the door. I am very sleepy.""Why th
I ran downstairs and drove as fast as I could. There was so much crowd on the road. I honked to avoid any other vehicle blocking my way. My phone rang. It was Renee."You left me alone. How could you do this?" I yelled at her."I know but I freaked out on seeing her. She asked me to not get anywhere near you. Didn't she tell you that she will be home after a week? " "Hey you mister watch out it's road not your garden." I yelled at a man that almost came front of my car "Well as I always tell you that you can never trust her. I thought that you have learned it by now.""Who were you yelling at?""Some old fellow who for sure could not hear the horn. You know what I am so done with her, I have decided that I will save my money and then get an apartment. Because if I will keep living with her then I am not sure if I will be able to live for long. Anyways where are you?""I am at college, you know something weird happened. Ian was asking for you. I don't know why. I told him that you wil
Professor was giving a boring lecture. The moment he starts speaking the time literally pauses. Five minutes feel like an hour. Renee and I were sitting on the last seat of the second row. Ian sat on the seat before them in the adjacent row. Renee was noticing me and Ian. She noticed that he was signing something to me. Well he was just asking for lunch but I didn't got that.Renee kicked me,"Ouch! What are you doing?""What is going on between you two?""Shh... sir is telling an important topic. Don't disturb me. And you also concentrate, it will be better for you . ""Oh come on I know how much you listen to professor. Do you even know which chapter he is teaching right now?""Ye-yes, chap-chapter 15.""Oh come on he finished that chapter like a week ago. Now enough of excuses. I know you are hiding something from me and I want to know what so tell me what is going on between you and Ian""I will tell you only if you will promise that you won't freak out . ""Honestly evaluating t
The morning sun next day brought new hopes and desires.John's health was showing improvement"which was a good sign.Doctors said that if he continued to recover this way then he will be able to go home very soon .Olivia was with John.They both were reliving their old days.Everyone was thinking that John will loose his life but no one thought that he will find it.Olivia was taking great care of him"being it his medicines or his food.She was handling everything herself.John was feeling good to see Olivia taking care of him .She was showering her love on him.All the emotions that she buried deep in her heart came to the surface.She was show casing nothing but love to him but when he acted like a child while taking his medicines"she acted like a strict mother .Leon was in the hospital with them .Avawas connected with them by phone.She wanted to come there butLeon thought that it will be better if she stayed back because she was very sensitive and the aroma of hospital made her sick....
Ava started to think that he won't show up.She kept on checking her phone if he left any message but he didn't.It was already 12.She thought that there was no point in waiting any longer.She got disheartened.She typed to him that"HiLeon"where are you ? I am waiting for you." She was about to press the send but then she thought what if he decided to back off from their wedding.YesAvatold him that she didn't wanted to marry him but none of these words were true.She knew that he will beg her to not leave him.But what if Jessica made a mistake by saying that ? What if the space that she gave him made him realize that he was better without her and that he deserved to be with someone better.Someone who won't leave him .She blew off the candles"she decorated the room with .She looked outside the window it was drizzling.She sniffed .She went to close the window.And there she sawLeon .He was sitting alone in rain."Leon !"She didn't say it out loud but he heard her .He stood up and looke
Ari drove to Cloud Wave hospital.According to Dr. Cooper's neighbor"he worked here now.Ari hated hospitals"the sickening smell is nauseating.And she was a germaphobe.Blood creeps the hell out of her and there was one more thing that she feared about the hospitals.It was less scary and more weird.In the same place some start their lives and some lives end.Some start their stories and some have to put an end to theirs.Some cry and some laugh.Some find hope and lose all they own ! All of this in a single place !It is weird right ?And more over she had some harsh memories with the hospital.Not this"but all in general.It was in a hospital her life shattered .oA man walked in with an angelic face but an arrogant personality.His face was rough but still a delight to watch.And his abs peeped out of his white shirt.He rolled his shirt up.His hands looked so firm"wonder what will it feel like to have them round your waist .He was the kind of guy every girl will fall for. He bumped against A
Ava was trying to manipulate Leon to blindly obey her.When she thought that he was getting more inclined towards Ari she moved out of his house.She knew it very well thatLeon will do anything to get her back.He needed her and he could not afford to let go of her.She was chilling at her house withAvawhileLeon was guilt ridden because he thought that he sabotaged their relationship.He was feeling like a failure because he thought that he failedAva. He failed to stand on her expectations.How different was the definition of love for both of them ?~~~Leon knocked the door . Ava went to open.She knew it wasLeon.But then she thought that if she opens the door it could seem like she was waiting for him and she had nothing better to do that sitting and missing him and waiting for him to come to her door.So she signed Sara to come to her.She whispered her to open the door and tellLeon that ever sinceAvacame from his house she has locked herself in her room and she is not letting any one in.Th
Flashback:Dear dary,It was already hard enough for me to cope up with the fact that my dad was no longer with me but then I found out that he wasn't even my real dad.My mum had an affair he was just kind enough to keep me. It is stupid o expect Claire to be quiet after this.~~Claire walked in the room ;Claire:"What are you still doing here ? I thought you left."Ari:"I will leave in a short while , I just wanted to feel his presence for the last time."Claire:"Well I guess you are done now because it's time for a clean up."Ari:"What do you mean ? "Claire:"Come on in."Claire called in two men that were waiting outside the room to be called in .Claire:"You can start packing from the book shelf then you can do the cupboard."Ari:"Wait, what is happening here ? Who are they ? "Claire:"They are from a charity house they have come to take Kevin's stuffs with them."Ari:"What? no , who called them ? "Claire:"I did.Isn't it obvious."Ari:"Why will you do that to dad ? "Claire:"He
The darkness creeped over. The blue sky was turning grey. The light breeze was taken over by storm.And Ari was lying helplessly in the car.“Ari” She heard a whispered. She forced her eyes open.She parted her lips to say, “Dad?”“You are not alone.”“Look at me dad, I am a mess. I have no one. I know I am dreaming but I don’t want to wakeup.”“What about your daughter?”“Maybe she will be better of without me.”“They need you.”“Who they?”“They all rely on you.”“Who are they dad?”“You can’t leave them.”
What the hell was happening? She drove as fast as she could. The car was chasing her.She was loosing her mind. She thought that maybe she was hallucinating or something. The road was quiet with only two cars racing with each other. The car came and hit her.That son of a bitch.But Ari ignored that. She was a little dizzy so it was getting very hard for her to drive. And suddenly the car banged against hers, she lost control and her car hit a tree.She was not wearing seatbelt. Her head hit the steering wheel and blood oozed out of her forehead.
Ari was so confused she had no idea what was going on. But it was driving her crazy. She felt like for a second she found herself in a totally different world.A world where she was not like how she used to be. She sat in her car to drive away. She just wanted to get out from this place. For a while she thought that maybe this place was haunted. There was something different in its aroma. She was feeling like something was trying to get onto her. Maybe a truth. A car was honking behind her. She looked at it. “Wh..?”It was the same dead guy.
What was happening? It was so confusing for Ari. She was not able to process it. And suddenly she got a head rush. She swayed from side to side. Her body was not able to hold her weight. She fell on her knees. She was feeling like someone was hammering nails in her skull.And suddenly she saw a faint vision. It was her but only by face if that even makes sense. She had a guj in her hand and she shot someone. What worsened the situation was that the someone was Leon. What was going on. She was panting.
