"You.."
Ray smirk."you're that girl from the under_ground garage"
"And you're the rude celeb. Does your fans know how rude you are?"
" Aren't you my fan? You should know better", Ray replied.
"I stopped been your fan", she replied. " I wonder why I keep bumping to you....."
"You don't think this is fate or something, do you? This is merely a coincidence."
"Now that you mention it, it could be fate. Why don't we run into each other but keep bumping into each other"
"That's because someone is so careless"
Dorris smiled."Beg me"
"Pardon?"
"Beg me or get mobbed", Dorris said again.
" Mob... What! Don't tell me you are going to reveal my identity here?", Ray asked.
"Do you dare"
"But why do i need to beg?"
Dorris opened her mouth as if she is about to scream,
"Okay. I'm sorry", he apologized.
" For?", Dorris asked, obviously enjoying herself.
In a moment, Dorris found herself in his arms.
"Pervert! Are you trying to....."
"I'm about to get into a scandal with you. You will be at a disadvantage here you know. It's your turn to beg me"
'So shameless'. Dorris could not believe that the man could be so shameless. 'How dare him harass me like that? When next I saw that brat, I have to take my revenge".
"Jerk, I'm gonna get even with you"
"Sis, why are you vexing so much. Who offended you, tell me I will teach him a lesson", Douglas teased.
Dorris hissed, " As if"
"Sis, Why is sister Ashley not visiting these days?", Douglas asked.
" My friend is busy with her boyfriend. I should have a boyfriend too but I'm too busy with auditions", Dorris said.
"Sis Ashley boyfriend, do you think he is good to her?", Douglas asked.
Dorris turned to her brother" why are you concern about that?"
"Sister Ashley is just as important to me as you are!", Douglas yelled and left the room.
Dorris raised her eye brows,
" why is he so angry?"
Dorris is so anxious. She has a final audition that morning. She had auditioned for the first and second round and she's made it to the third round.
"Breakfast is ready", she heard her Dad voice and came out of her room.
" Good morning, dad"
"Good morning, my sweetheart"
Dorris mother died three years ago when she was in her last year in college. Dorris is twenty year old then. Her dad loved her mother so much and he promised her to be mother and father at the same time on her sick birth. Louis had not gone back on his promised. He adored his kids even more than he adored them when their mum is alive.
"Dad, I don't want to eat breakfast", she told him.
" And why is that my sweetheart? "
"I'm nervous"
"Don't be. You have to eat so that you will have the strength to audition well"
"I agree with Dad", Douglas said chewing on his food loudly.
" Eat, my sweetheart. Dad will drop you off at the venue".
"Thank you dad. So many hearts for you", Dorris said and started eating.
Dorris is so nervous.
" The name of the band will be Ginger girls. You will be eight. ", The assistant director said.
Dorris looked around. There are ten of them here.
'God I don't want to be part of those that will go home. I need to win this audition'
" If you hear your name now, you are part of the Ginger girls.", the assistant director said again. They all held their breathe.
"Juliana, Susan, Cynthia, Rosalind"
Those they called released their breathe immediately.
"Penelope, Dorris, Grace and Mercy"
Immediately Dorris heard her name, she jumped in joy.
"Congratulations" The assistant director said.
"Penelope will be the band leader. She had the most outstanding performance", The director said and walk out.
" Congratulations to all of you", Penelope said. "I need you all to listen attentively. We need to make LS stars proud for signing us into their company. We are signing tomorrow. Let's dress decently and be in our best behavior. I'm I making sense?", she asked.
" you are", the band chorus.
"Is there anyone who wants to say something?", Penelope asked.
Dorris signified.
" Let's hear what you have to say"
"I just feel that we should learn to make our team strong. We don't want to get disbanded, we all know what usually happen to bands that get disbanded"
"I agree", Rosalind put in.
" I believe this is in our hand. It will work out if we want it to", Grace said.
"After the signing event tomorrow, let's go out to have a drink", Mercy said.
" I'm in", they all agreed and laughed.
Dorris loved their personalty. She is really looking forward to working with them.
They both saw her message to meet at that chicken place.
"Why do you suddenly want to spend some money?", Douglas asked has he sat down.
Ashley hit him. "Can't you be more matured. Your sister just debuted"
"Sister you can't hit me just anyhow. I'm.... What? Sis debuted? Is this why you suddenly want to treat us to chicken and beer."
"Why did you invited this brat?", Ashley asked Dorris.
" 'Cause he is the only male friend I have", Dorris replied. "My band is called Ginger girls. You guys need to start following our band. Douglas, you need to open a fan page for me. I'm now a celebrity"
"Good for you so why should I open a fan page when I'm not even your fan?", Douglas asked.
Ashley hit him again.
" Say something awful again and I will beat you up", she told him.
"Better not to say anything bro. All your words are awful", Dorris said chewing on her chicken.
Ray father stormed into his office.
" Dad", Ray called.
The man ignored the greeting.
"What is this that lawyer Drone is saying? Are you really investing in the entertainment industry?", Mr Dalton asked.
Ray remained calm. He knew this will happen. He knew his father will ask him this question.
" Dad, I'm not investing in the entertainment industry... "
"Of course, I must have heard it wrong", the man cut in.
" I'm establishing my own entertainment agency".
"You...."
"Dad, it is not as if I'm going back to being an artiste. I only noticed when I'm in the industry that it is a good business. I'm a business man after all. I will only think about making profit"
Mr Dalton is still not convinced.
"Don't worry Dad. I'm in charge of the company now. I know what is right and what is not right"
