Sona's Dream

Chapter 9

I take my clothes. Ugh they smell like salt. I put them in the bathroom. Well what shall I wear then for today? I open the wardrobe. Even though it's full clothes I have the feeling its empty. I need desperately shopping! I choose a black shirt on which is written 'the crazy girl', a black-white short and black sneakers. I attempt to visit 'the young superteens' today because today is the semi-final of the rap group. I go down and ask a typical American sandwich and hot milk with honey. Suddenly they come down. When they see me they smile brightly. I turn my face to the other side. I do not want to see their stupid faces anymore. I eat my sandwich quickly and go toward the shopping district of San Francisco. I go a little around and then I see a Zara, which is at least 3 times bigger than the one in Glasgow! I go in, wow! It is enormous! So many clothes. I don't know how long I spent my time inside this shop but I know that when I came out I had 3 big paper bags full of clothes. On one side when I look at those clothes, which are mine now, I feel happily but on the other side my pocket hurts. Almost no more money. Seems I have to ask mom again for money. I go back to the hotel because the sky is already dark. Immediately I go up in my room, I take a dark-blue dress with little blue flowers on the side out, a black legging and a pair of dark-grey high-heels out, and put them on. Then I put some make up on my face. Finish! I look at the clock: 8 o'clock p.m. ... Already so late?! The show begins at half past nine no? I take out the paper on which all the dates is written. Half past nine. I still have to eat! I run down to the restaurant. What do they have as dinner? Chinese Chow Fun Noodles, Kerupuk with legumes and rice, Draniki with Pelemy or spicy boiled yams. I choose Kerupuk because you can eat it faster than the others. After I finished it, I called immediately a taxi. Already nine o'clock. They begin in 30 minutes!

-Stage 'the young superteens' please. And fast I don't have much time.

- Roger young lady.

After 20 minutes we arrive before the stage. Good I have still 10 minutes.

-That will cost you 35$, young lady.

I give him 35$. It is so expensive! Well at least I'm not late. But unlucky when I enter the door, there is a line of a few dozen people, who are waiting to get in. So I had no other choice than to wait behind them. I arrive 13 minutes too late. 2 rap songs are already finished. The third one was ongoing:

So we are here to take the prize

(Refrain) No matter what you do, we do it better

No matter where you are, don't forget to write a letter

You shall send it to us and beg for grace

But it will only happen if you go to space

So the same will be with this rap challenge

No one will been able to block our passage

And if someone try to take on us without knowledge

Then we will whip them out with full damage

Only a few steps more

And we will stand on the top floor

From there we will look down

We will have the rap crown

But it's also thanks to our fans

Without all those helping hands

We won't been able reach our destiny

So we guarantee that our rap will make you all happy

(Refrain)

Don't know what to say. It is really not style. To be honest I don't listen rap music so I really don't know what a good rap song is. To me this one sounds so bad and weird but well it has to be not that bad because if not, then they won't be in the semi-final round. Other people seem to like it because many clapped. The announcer thanks them and calls for the next group called 'Asian Panda Group'. What for a funny and cute name and as the name says, 4 Asian guys go on the stage. They are all dressed in black and white. The name of their song is 'Panda is back again':

We are the little pandas

As famous as those panda canvas

We are here again to rock the stage

We will set you free from the boring all-day cage

The adorable pandas are everyone's mascots

We make everyone happy so fast like a gunshot

No matter from where you come

It doesn't matter if you live in villas or slums

We are there for everyone

And we do not let anyone alone

(Refrain) Little cutie pandas rap again

We are the today the most adorable men

On this floor we rock everyone out of their door

From one to four

And everyone will fall in love

Well we are sorry for our move

But we cannot change the fact that we are so adorable

We know that we are so liveable

I'm done for, I'm out. What are those for verses? It sounds so crazy and stupid. No wonder that I don't listen any rap. I go toward the door and wanted to leave. But Mister Stanford suddenly appears:

-Hey Sona. Are yu here today to watch the semi-final of the rap group?

-Yes I wanted to but unfortunately it is too boring for me. It's really not y style so I just wanted to go back to hotel again.

-Everyone like something else so it's normal that you don't like rap music. Well next Wednesday begins the rap battle between the top 8 groups. It will be more interesting then.

-You sure?

-Yes I'm sure.

-Hm, ok I will come next week then back. Thank you Mister Stanford. And I have a question.

-Yes?

-When do we begin? I mean when do we have to sing?

-Next Friday. Ah yes did you already find a partner?

-Oh no! I totally forgot it!

-Haha its ok you don't have to stress yourself. You still have time and even if you have one now, it does not mean that will stay as your partner. Maybe he will fail the first round and you have to find a new one. So just calm down you will find one. Good I let you then now. I still have things to do. Good evening Sona and until next week then.

-Thanks, you too.

I go out of 'the young superteens' and calls for a taxi to take me back to the hotel. Unfortunately, I didn't know that someone listened my conversation with Mister Stanford in the background. That person had a big smile on his face when I said, that I totally forgot to search a partner, so that I don't have a partner.
Hey a new chapter is out! :3 hope you guys enjoy it! :D
