It was the second week of summer, in two months I'd be at college. I didn't really wanted to think about it, not that I wasn't excited as my friends were for the first year of college, all that crazy parties and the new people, even if we would all be a part from each other, it was something that attracted me there. College atracted me more fore the parties than for the Economics degree that I wasn't it would be the right choice for me. 

I wasn't sure what I wanted so I picked my father's degree and got in, my grades were good and I liked economy and what I used to see my dad working on, although the only thing that completely filled my heart was music. But for now all I wanted was to rest and enjoy the summer with my friends. Trying to put on my head that I would never be a big dj or music producer, the dream lived in me, the oportunities didn't.

I was on the beach with my best friend Jade, we were sunbathing, she was talking non stop about the guy she was seeing and texting all the time and I was listening and watching Jack on the water with his friends. He was my ex boyfriend, we end up badly and he hadn't stop trying to get back together, my mind was thinking why, he cheated on me and then didn't let me move on.

"Are you listening?" she said "Kat?"

"Yeah, he sounds nice" I looked to her and she furrowed her brows.

"I know you were looking to Jack." she sat on her towel "Look, I know you were pretty bad when that happened but I can see his sorry for everything, and he definitely still loves you"

"I," I didn't knew what to say or think "I just, I don't know, there's a part of me that is completly over him, but sometimes I miss the good things of our relationship. I guess I'll never completly forgive him, I need to distance myself from him. That's what I need"

"If thats what you want, I support you" she turn her back on her toal, still looking at me "How's your music going? Ready to put that on youtube?"

"You know that's never gonna happen" I was to afraid of the results of that, what if no one liked it? I couldn't live with that.

"Well, you need a distraction to get over Jack, and your music is amazing!" I stayed quiet "And it's your dream! And we live in Miami, it's summer, there's so many parties where you can start!" she was more excited than me.

"I don't know, I'm afraid no one is going to like it or whatever and then everywhere I go people will know I'm that girl that tried her luck on youtube and ended up being humiliated, you know that" she looked to me like I was crazy.

Then she spent the rest of the afternoon trying to convince me to put my musics on youtube and even listened to my new ones, then told me again about the guy she liked.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I got home some hours after "Katherine?" it was my mum, the rest of the people only call me Kat "Is that you?"

"Yes" I said while walking to the living room, she was on her ipad.

"Today is your grandma birthday, hope you hadn't forgotten" I totally forget but I tried to pretend I hadn't "I can see you did,  but it's ok, just remember we are having dinner at the Palace, ok? We leave at 7pm" she kissed me in the forehead as I got closer to her.

I went to my room, it was 5:28 pm, I had to take a shower, so I went to the bathroom that I shared with my younger brother Tom, I locked the door that had acsess to his room, I could hear the guns from his videogames and laughs, he was probably with some friends. I took a shower and wash my teeth, dressed a simple dark green dress with a pair of sandals, some gold acsessorises, a little mascara and I was ready. 

"Can I come in?" My brother said on the other side of the door, I opened the door and he came in "Hey you"

"Hey"

"Were you on the beach all day?" he sat on my bed.

"Yeah, why?" I got my eyes away from the computer and looked to him, he was wearing a dark green polo, matching my dress, god.

"Dillon Francis have been posting videos of him with Martin Garrix and Zedd on snapchat. You gotta see! They are all here in Miami!" I got excited, I felt like the chances of finding them were so good in that moment, my brother grabbed his phone and opened snapchat. My brother loved edm such as me, I probably made him like, always sending him links and whatever and now he loves it "They are all here for the festival we are going on saturday to see Dillon and Zedd"

"If they three came they should all play sets!"

"That's what I tought but I read Garrix is in europe now and is meeting them later" he said "They said that will be here to work on some new songs and enjoy the summer because a lot of his concerts now are here or close so they are staying for at least three weeks because they are working on something together. And the best part!!" he made a pause and looked to me "They are staying in mom's hotel!!" what he meant was the hotel where my mom worked.

"She told you that?" Incredible.

"Yeah, she was trying to say that someone we liked was going to stay there, she said those Djs or youtubers you and Katherine like, Zet or Zed, Dylan and that one that is younger, Martin Garrix" I facepalmed myself imagening my mom saying that "and so I realised it was them, and I had just read online they were coming"

We stayed there, sitting on my bed watching Dillon's snaps and identifying the places where they were until my dad came in "Hey thing 1 and thing 2, uhuh, matching outfits, what a cute siblings you are" he said jockingly and told us it was time to head to the restaurant.

--------------------------------------------------------

 When we get to the restaurant a lot of my family were there, my grandma looked really happy and we were happy for her, is not everyone whose turning 78 and is so well and strong as she was. 

An hour later or more we were singing happy birthday and eating the cake, my aunt Helena turned to me and asked if I were excited for college, and the feelings came again, I answered yes but all I wanted to say is that I wasn't sure about my choices and all  I really wanted was to create music.

Later I got home, I was so tired from the day at the beach and so full of food from the dinner that I dressed my old Harry Potter shirt and put some shorts on and fell a sleep.

Next morning I woke up with someone opening my door and screaming my name.

"Kat!!! Kat!!!!!! Katherine William wake uuuuuppppp!!" my brother screamed and shook me.

"What??" I said and made a mad face at him.

"You are not going to believe what just happen!!" I looked to him still mad and waited with my arms crossed "Jade put one of your musics on youtube, she shared it everywhere and look!" I pushed his phone from his hand and looked "15 thousand views since last night! It's amazing!! People are loving it!" He was all happy, I was shocked. So that's what she wanted me to see last night. 

People were sharing it everywhere, there was no coming back. I was happy but shocked, god, my music was being recognized and apreciated, I tought I was dreaming but then I felt my brother hugging me while reading some comments and it felt so real and good.
