Three days ago.
I heard a knock on my door, I was in the bathroom so I wrapped myself in my towel. I walked towards the door and twisted the knob.
"Good morning paps"I greeted my dad. "My beautiful daughter,hope you slept tight,hurry up before you get late for your auditioning ". My father said with a welcoming smile on his face. I blushed and smiled and he walked away. I closed the door gently and checked the time it was almost an hour for the audition to begin.
Flash back.
Some weeks ago, I had being looking for a job, I need a decent Job,while I was searching online, I came across many jobs, but there was a particular request that got my attention, It's a particular woman requesting for a babysitter. I really wanted a job as a babysitter because I love playing with kids. I really nèed that job,if I'm able to get this job I'm going to get enough money to support my dad to pay the house rent. We pay rent monthly and my father is not rich ever since mom divorced him,she made sure he lost his job and ever since then he had being struggling for a living,taking a job and helping him will be the best thing I could do to help him.
I went to the woman's house and we discussed on the terms and conditions of the job,I gladly accepted. The girl I'm to be babysitting was introduced to me her name is Eli, she is six years old,smart a bit fleshy and cute. "Eli" I called out her name, she smiled at me and I carried her. I'm happy she likes me already, even on our first day of getting to meet her.
Her mum smiled. "You can resume work tomorrow"Eli's mum said and walked away.
"Eli you're very cute, I cant wait to play with you all day tomorrow " I said and smiled.
"Why can't you stay, I want you to meet my brother, he promised to buy me cookies " Said Eli. I smiled. "If that's what you want I'm going to stay till your brother comes back" I said placed her in the chair we started playing. Some few minutes later 3 guys entered the house. Eli runned and flew to the one in the middle's shoulder. I stood stylishly looking at their faces since I did not know them. "This is Arielmarie she's my friend she will be babysitting me since mum would be busy".As they walked towards me, that was when I saw them clearly . OMG! They are the coderz brothers the one in the middle his fans call him Manderz.
"OMG! I'm your biggest fan. I've being crushing on you for a very long time. Is it a dream? I have your posters all over my room. I've your songs as my ringtone, your pictures as my wallpaper and profile picture on all my social media accounts,Can some one wake me uo! I like you, I like you so much,OMG!" I thought crazily,I wish I could say that out loud but he might sack me because I just got the job. I comported myself and lowered my head slightly.
"Who are you?" Manasseh asked. " Im Arielma..." I said but he interrupted." I don't need your surname, you are Ariel right? What do you want here?" Manasseh asked " Errmm I'm the new babysitter for Eli" I replied gently. "You can't work here,leave you are fired". He said with an mean face.
"But mom gave me the job and...." Before I could finish talking, he went to the center table in the living room he took a water gun Eli and I were playing with ,he sprayed the water in it on me.
"You are just and ugly duckling,with no aim, with dirty body,you stink leave here before I do something stupid now"he said
His friends kept staring at me. I looked at Eli with tears filled in my eyes and she looked at me with a sad face. I knew she did not like what a brother did but she couldn't help. I walked away shamelessly.
FLASH BACK ENDS
I dressed and kissed my dad on the check and said goodbye, he wished me good luck I got to Henderson high and entered the hall way, I went to where the participants stood. They were calling us in numbers one after the other . Many people were entering to perform some passed others others failed. Finally finally my name was mentioned, my heart started beating very fast as I was approaching the stage and I was suprised when I saw the coderz brothers as the judges "They see me as someone who is good for nothing they hate me I'm already disqualified" I thought painfully.
"What do you have for us Arielmarie?" Javion asked.
"Annie Marie,2002"I replied and faked a smile. I sighed and begun to sing
"I will always remember the day you kissed my lips. Light as a feather and it went just like this
No, It's never been better than the summer of 2002(ooh)
Uh, we were only 11
But acting like grown-ups
drinking from plastic cups
singing love is forever and ever well, I guess that was true"
The first flower boy stood up from his chair and said "wow! For me yes I really love your voice" I almost jumped with joy but 2 people had to say yes before i would be qualified. "Eww your voice stinks and it's very ugly" Manasseh said with a mean face. I felt bad when he said that but I had hope the last coderz brother will say yes. "Well, I'm really amazed I just don't know how to describe your voice,yes" the last coderz brother said and I jumped with joy.
