The day of the concert came, as I was getting ready. I knew that I wouldn't sing at the concert, and even if I wanted to, it would be already too late. In my mind, I was praying that Phoebe would not get caught pretending to be me, as the queen is very strict on her.
"You always ruin things for me!" I heard a yell from the dining room.
I quickly ran to the dining room, and saw my sister Serena crying, as Sam (her fiance), was trying to comfort her. I overheard them talking about running away from home, and to be honest, if I were them, I would've wanted to run away too.
"I can't do this anymore," Serena sobbed, as she was running upstairs to pack her bags.
"Wait, please don't go!"
They ignored me.
"I can't believe what the queen has done!" I grunted, "This is absolutely the worst way to start off a concert."
"Penelope, can you come here!" Phoebe yelled.
I quickly ran to Phoebe's room to see what's up. When I entered the room, I saw Phoebe hide the papers.
"Yes, whats up?" I asked.
"You have to hide from the queen, so that she doesn't find you," she explained as she got up, "I have already arranged a ride for you".
"Who is the driver?" I asked.
"Dylan will be driving since he will be doing nothing today," She replied.
"Oh ok, well have a fun concert i guess."
"Bye," she waved.
Later this evening, I was hiding under the car, as I heard the car parking. I quickly arose from the car seat, as I was looking around to see if the Queen's family was near me. After a few seconds, it was safe enough to get out of the car, so I grabbed my things, and opened the car door.
When I opened the car door, I saw loads of cars and vans parked, as people were rushing towards the auditorium.
"I can blend in the crowd."
While I was running with the crowd, my mind kept on worrying about Phoebe getting caught by the queen. When I entered the auditorium, I spotted the Queen's family at the very front of the stage, so I picked a seat very far from the queen, so she doesn't notice me.
"Welcome to the 74th annual Mokland concert!" The spokesperson announced, "Are you ready for the concert?"
"YESS!" I heard the audience yell.
"Ok. So today, we are going to hear Penelope sing for us, along with other talented musicians," she explained.
I was very anxious that Phoebe won't pull off the disguise as well as I thought she would do.
Pretty soon, I saw Phoebe confidently walk on the stage in her disguise outfit.
"Hello Moklanders," She smiled, "Today I will be singing 3 songs, so get ready, cause it's going to be the best performance of your life."
Seconds later, I saw the curtain unravel, as I saw many musicians with their instruments.
A moment later, Phoebe was singing her heart out, and I got chills from her beautiful and sweet voice. I began feeling nervous because the queen might get suspicious, because I wouldn't sing that good, but I brushed it off. After Phoebe sang her last line, the audience was clapping so loud that it started ringing my eardrums. I was astonished by her performance, and I really wanted to sing like her.
As the audience was leaving, I followed them so I wouldn't have to face the queen in public.
Once I entered outside, I saw Phoebe (disguised as Penelope), walking proudly, as people were congratulating her. I also saw the queen next to her, holding her hand, so I hid in the audience.
Later tonight, after everyone got home, the queen rushed in her room, and locked her room.
"I know Penelope's tricks," The queen snickered, "She's lucky that she is privileged, or else she would've been kicked out like Phoebe"
The queen opened her journal, and started writing.
"I'm going to get rid of Phoebe, Alex, and Dylan, they bring shame on our kingdom and royalty," The queen grunted, as powerful winds started pouring inside the room .
