kassie wakes up. in that white room again looking around for her grandma. She gets up in a panic. "grandma?!" she yells. she keeps on looking around think she is stuck here forever. a tap on her shoulder appears. kassie turns around in a hurry. "oh kassie dear!" the grandma touches her cheek. kassie cries. she wakes up still in Lavern's car. lavern is driving on the highway. "lavern?..what happened?" says kassie. "mom kicked you out." says lavern. kassie touches her shoulders "ouch!" kassie looks at her shoulders and sees a big bruise on her. she panics. "weres my things?! were are we going?!" kassie yells. lavern stays quiet. "lavern pull over! pull over!" kassie repeats. lavern still drives. "lavern!" lavern screaks to the side of the road and stops driving. "kassie we are in a mess! we cant go back to school we cant go back home!" lavern yells. kassie pauses and stays quiet. "we only have 2,000 dollars, it wont work..." "I know, What should we do?.." they both pause. "you sing more!" lavern says. kassie turns and look at her "are you serious?!" "yes come on we need to travel!" lavern explains. "after what happened? no thanks." kassie opens the door, lavern grabs her arm. "kassie please!" lavern yells. kassie pauses, she sighs and gets back in the cars and she nods her head. "fine.." says kassie slowly. lavern waves her hands and the wind blows. they drive off to the next town. w
they stop at the next town Rochester. lavern gets out of the car and goes into the store to pay for the gas. kassie leans back with a hat and sunglasses on her face look thru memories in her head. finding good ones at her old home. her mother hugging her tight, when sarah wasn't there to ruin her life. lavern comes back with a news paper and snacks. kassie sits up and opens a bag of chips and reads the news paper. places were people are playing at in buffalo. lavern gets back in the car and puts on her seat belt. "lavern look we can do a gig there." says kassie. lavern looks at the news paper and reads it. "buffalo seems far?" says lavern. "we can do it!" says kassie. lavern thinks and grabs her phone, dialing the number and calling them straight away "hello?" says lavern on the phone. she talks low. kassie looks at the newspaper and reads more about it. lavern quickly gets off the phone. "okay then to buffalo we go." says lavern. lavern turns on the engine and drive off to the highway. it was late, kassie and lavern were tired so they stop at a hotel. lavern runs inside the lobby to get a hotel room. kassie gets out and gets the bags and waits. lavern comes out and points at the hotel room. they go inside the room and put down everything and start to sleep for the night. right in the morning they put there stuff in the trunk and drive off. 40 minutes later they stop for gas. kassie talks over and over that she was hungrier and she was bored. lavern walks inside for chips and drinks again. kassie picks at her fingers, counting them. lavern passes her another newspaper. kassie sits up and reads it. she looks on the list and sees her name. "AT JOHNS RESTURUNT GUEST COMING APPEAR! Donald Robinson, Kassie Z London, July Dankworth, Kallie Berry," and others more. Kassie screams of joy. "we are on the list!" lavern runs in and sees Kassies name. lavern and kassie screams and jumping around makes the car shake. lavern runs turns on the engine and drives straight to Buffalo.
after an 1 hour they finally got to buffalo. kassie was asleep. lavern parks on the side of the road. she wakes up kassie. "we are in buffalo" says lavern. kassie wakes up in a hurry and gets out. she sees a building that says "dress store" kassie looks at lavern. "this isn't the place to do the gigs at" says kassie. "I know it isn't" lavern says. she closes the door and walks inside the store. kassie walks inside the store, seeing beautiful dresses, gowns and jewelry. she gasps. the clerk comes with more dresses and spots them searching for dresses. "hello! what do you need?" says the clerk. "a dress a black dress." says lavern. the clerk walks in the back to grab a dress. kassie taps Lavern's shoulder. "you sure?" says kassie. lavern nods and the clerk comes back with the dress. "here you go!" says the clerk. the clerk give it to lavern and lavern gives it to kassie to try it on. kassie runs to the dressing room to try it on. she comes out. "i-it fits" she says. lavern waves her hands of joy. the clerk waits behind the counter for the pay. kassie goes to the dressing room, takes the dress of and lavern pays for it. they get back in the car and drive off to the gig.
They get out of the Car seeing a big line starting at the end of the street. kassie sighs. "are we really gonna do this?" says kassie. lavern looks at kassie. "we cant back out of this" says lavern. kassie takes a deep breath and walks inside. a bunch of people looked and recognized her right away. "kassie!" someone yells. "kassie z London!" they yell again. kassie wasn't very much popular, all they know that she goes to gigs. they sign the paper to let her in. she walks in. the owner of the store greets kassie. "hello! kassie welcome!" he says. she smiles and waves not knowing what to say. he walks away and they get closer to the back of the stage. they come in. seeing new people there. all the people that were on the list. the microphone spats loud. "LADYS AND GENTLEMEN PLEASE WELCOME YOU!...DONALD ROBINSON!" Donald Robinson walks past lavern and kassie, lavern puts her hand on Kassies shoulder. "good luck child!" lavern runs out of the stage. kassie stands by and sits to do her makeup. a girl with a white dress sits right next to her. kassie looks up and see it was July Dankworth, ready to do her makeup. kassie stares at her getting ready to do her makeup. July Dankworth spots kassie looking at her, kassie turns away. "you from Brooklyn new York?" says July. kassie giggles, "y-yes" July puts on her makeup. "i use to do a lot of shows there once." "do you still do shows there now?" "no" says July. "how come?" "to crowded, not much pay." July stops speaking and stares at her "why you in buffalo?" "I'm going to los Angeles" she opens her mouth a little with a gasp and turns the other way putting more makeup on "well i hope you like the stay her London" she walks to the outfits. kassie sits there in a panic and cleans herself up. she cleans wipes her whole makeup and redo's it. the crowd was clapping like crazy. kassie knew that noise. she rushes. the manager comes up to kassie "get ready" he says to her. she brushes her hair faster than she ever ran. "BRING TO YOU KASSIE Z. LONDON!" screams the person on the microphone. kassie goes up stage scared. she puts her mouth closer up to the microphone. "Ahh" she lets out a tune "seeing you by the waters, calling the moon close to you, and ahh, made sure you can make it to the end of the time to save us all." only some people knew who kassie was. she keeps singing. "when will you know is your games that you play...and ahh" she sings the highest note. "will always keep loving you" lavern watches her sing in the distance. the owner comes up with cash in his hands. "here you go Mrs. grace" the owner hands her the money and walks away to the back room. she counts it. "oh!" "oh!" "ah!" kassie screams in the microphone. she hits the highest note "ahh!" the music stops, she stops singing, the crowd claps with cheer. kassie smiles and waves and walks away. kassie comes with the dress she wore in a plastic bag, walking to the car. she puts it in the back and hops in the car. "how much?" says kassie "214" kassie sighs and yawns. "we will talk about it in the morning." says lavern. she drives off to the nearest hotel in the night.
