EPISODE 3
The next morning, Auggie and I got prepared for school and after eating a bowl of cornflakes together, we were on our way, as we walked down the stairs Erick came out of the house and with a smile on his face, he waved to us.
“bye” he yelled.
“let’s go Auggie” I said to Auggie preventing him from waving back to Erick.
“hey I wasn’t talking to you, but Auggie okay?!!” Erick yelled before walking back inside, I rolled my eyes and Auggie and I hurried down the stairs.
We both trekked to school and after dropping Auggie in his school I went to mine, but our school isn’t that far from each other.
I got to our overpopulated class and went to my seat beside Annie who was seriously busy with her phone that she didn’t hear the “hi” I said to her, i ignored her and brought down my backpack. Half of the class were busy with their phone mostly girls, while the boys are at the back of the class playing some stupid game that I can’t explain.
“ahhhh!!!!!!” Annie screamed.
“Annie are you okay?” I worridly asked. But she ignored my question and stood up.
“guys, he’s here, he just landed and some paparazzi had already taken pictures of him at the airport and spreading it on the internet” Annie said and everyone rushed towards her and she showed them pictures of the person she was talking about.
“oh.. He’s so cute… “he’s adorable.. “look at his cute smile”….”oh I wish I could skip school and go to the airport… “yeah me too”..
I heard those kind of murmurs behind me and I know they were talking about Daniel hangerson.
After looking at the photos of Daniel, the girls went back to their seats and Annie sat down beside me finally noticing me.
“hey you’re here” she smiled.
“I’ve been here ages ago but you were too busy with your Daniel hangerson” I said and she gasped.
“don’t ruin his glamorous name, it’s Daniel Anderson okay?!” she said and I rolled my eyes.
“whatever”.
“so are you going to his concert on Friday?” she asked.
“no” I said plainly and she moved closer to me.
“hey let me tell you a secret,” she said and moved even closer to my ear and in a whisper she said.
“I have someone, well let’s just put that aside, I’ve got tickets to his concert”.
“did you just say you have tickets to Daniel’s concert” a girl behind us suddenly said and everyone turned to Annie.
“what? No I was just joking, you know when you joke about something it comes true” Annie said and laughed nervously and everyone turned back to their business.
“phew! That was close” Annie said, stood up and dragged me outside.
“okay I had to lie to everyone, I actually have tickets to Daniel’s concert and I’d really like it if you go with me please?” she said with her eyes shimmering at me.
“I’m sorry Annie I can’t” I have things to do that Friday” I said and she pouted.
Let me calculate, If I go to the concert, I’ll stay out late and sleep late which means I’ll wake up late on Saturday morning and miss the paper delivery.
“sorry, I can’t” I said again about walking in the class but she held me.
“please June! I’ll do all your homework for a week and I’ll never mock you about Maria Li ever again” she said and I sighed.
“why do you want me to be go so bad?” I asked folding my arms.
“so you’ll see the beauty he has inside” she said with smile.
“so I’ll be fangirling over him like a lunatic, well thanks but I can already see his so called beauty from your wallpaper” I said and she sighed.
“fine! But I’ll surprise you on friday” she said and grin slyly before walking behind the teacher who walked in our class.
Annie and I had lunch in the classroom with three other girls, Julia, Phoebe and joy since our cafeteria was a bit small and the four of ‘them’ started talking about
Daniel Anderson. And before I knew it they started to sing his songs.
? «««I’m tormented, I’m crushed, I don’t know what to do. I’m confused, I’m lost, I totally got no clue. I know I love you. Yeah, that’s true. But when will you start loving me too?
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
All I need is you, baby.
All I need is you
Cause you’re all I got
So when will you start loving me too»» ?
The song was great the way they sang it and I wished I knew it, I’ve never listened to any of Daniel Anderson’s song but this one will be my favorite if I listen to all of them.
“what’s the title of the song?” I asked.
“why do you suddenly care about our Daniel’s beautiful song” Annie said and I rolled my eyes.
“it’s called ‘just love me’ it’s his second song after his debut song, “second chance” Phoebe said and I nod.
“oh second chance is my favorite the way his voice synchronized with the beat and the lyrics made it feel like he was really in love and heartbroken” joy said
“but what if he really dated and got his heart broken before being a singer?” Annie suggested.
“but on the internet it was said he’s never dated before” joy said.
“as much as I love Daniel, don’t believe anything you see on the internet” Julia warned and they all nod.
“but are any of you going to his concert?” joy asked.
“yep” they all answered among themselves and giggled.
“but just imagine guys, he’ll be up there singing and I’ll be down there screaming out his name and slowly his glamorous eyes will look down at me and then his hand will reach for mine and grabbed it, he’ll pull me up the stage and then. He’ll.. He’ll kiss me” Annie said with a smile and Julia rolled her eyes.
“you dream too much” Julia snarled.
“I’m just saying, you don’t have to pretend you’re not jealous, Daniel and I will make a perfect couple and together we’ll be Da-Annie” Annie said smiling after her day dreams..
“no together he and I will be Dabie” phoebe said. And we all laughed. I laughed too cause it didn’t make sense and joy’s was worst, she smiled before saying “Daniel and I will be Doy” joy said and we all burst out into hysterical laughters.
“that’s crazy, just leave it for the best Da-lia” Julia smiled and Annie huffed cause it made a beautiful name “Dalia”.
Well school was over and I went over to the elementary school to pick Auggie and we both went home.
Auggie and I got home and we met Erick in the living room with Ella, I almost forgot we have a new family member.
“you guys are back” Erick smiled.
“Ella!” Auggie said happily and ran to meet his dog which was happily wagging her tail as she saw us.
“Auggie go take off your uniform before playing with that canine now!” I said strictly and Auggie pat Ella’s head before walking inside our room.
“how was school?” Erick asked.
“it’s was pathetically not your business” I smiled
“June, learn to be polite” My grandma said coming out of her room.
“but I am polite” I said with my head high.
“you know what I’m talking about” my grandma added and glance back and forth between Erick and I.
And I sighed and turned to him
“school was great today, thanks for asking” I said loudly with a small bow.
“satisfied?” I smiled at my grandma.
“not yet” she smiled back before walking away.
“I love your grandma, she has a sense of humour” Erick smiled and I rolled my eyes at him before walking into my room.
Auggie was taking his bathe when I walked in cause I heard the shower running and as I dropped down my bag, he came out of the bathroom and with hastiness he wore his clothes and ran out of the room, I heard him call Ella, Erick’s dog and I smiled and shook my head negatively, so he couldn’t wait to play with her.
I removed my uniform and before I knew it, I found myself under the shower. I took my time before walking out of the shower, and wearing my clothes, I wore a loosed sweater and a Jean short and I got on my bed, I placed my phone beside me and started to play one of Maria Li’s song, ”it had to be you” lip syncing the song quietly I fell asleep, I must have been so tired, and my skin looks like its getting tanned everyday because of the burning sun, but it’s a good thing, summer is approaching.
I suddenly saw myself under a stage light and on a stage, I looked forward and saw thousands of people staring at me and chanting my name, they were so many of them holding up light sticks and waving it in the air.
And then I saw Maria Li in front of me and she gave me her glorious smile and then she raised up a glittering microphone to her mouth and then she started to sing..
