1983
I walked to my best friend Melinda house. I knocked on the door.
"Hey Paris."Her mother greeted me.
"Hey."I smiled.
"Come on in."She let me in. Melinda was ready.
"Oh great bye mom."She said and we left out of the house.
We walked down the street to the store. I grabbed some blow pops,soda,and a bag of chips. I walked up to the counter.
"Hey Lil sis."My big sister Londyn smiled at me. She work here.
"Hey."I paid for the things I bought a water gun.
Melinda paid for her things and we walked out. We walked to my house. We walked in upstairs to my room. I looked through my clothes. I got Melinda an outfit to put on. I got dressed. I smiled and put my hair in a ponytail.
We walked out of my room. We walked downstairs. We walked out of the house. I locked the door.
"Yo you want to go to my cousin Ralph house?"I asked her.
"Yeah is Mike going to be there?"She asked me. I laughed.
We walked to my cousin Ralph house. My aunt opened the door.
"Hey Paris hey Melinda."She smiled.
"The boys are in Ralph room."She told me. I nodded. We walked in and walked back to Ralph room. I knocked on the door.
Ralph came and opened the door. He smiled.
"Hey Paris."He smiled at me.
"Hey."I said.
"Me and the boys are about to leave you want to come with us?"He asked us.
"Yes."Melinda smiled.
"Alright come on."Ralph said and I followed him.
We walked out of the house. Bobby,Mike,and Ricky behind us.
We walked down the street and then to a building. We walked in.
"Alright follow us."Ralph told Mel and I.
We followed them to a little studio. We walked in. I looked around. I smiled.
"Great y'all here my nephew should be here in a minute."A man with glasses on told them. They nodded.
"Hi I'm Paris Jones and this is my friend Melinda Smith."I informed him.
"Nice to meet."He smiled at us.
A big man came into the room.
"Alright your nephew here?"He asked.
"He on his way."He told the other man.
"Who are they?"The big man pointed at us.
"These our friends Melinda and Paris."Mike smiled at Mel.
"They can sing too."Bobby told him.
"Really that's good let me hear a little something?"He asked us.
I looked at her. She nodded. I had a cassette tape in my purse with my song on it. I put it in the tape player. The song started. It started playing Superstition. Melinda and I started singing. The two men were in awe as we finished.
"You ever thought about having a career?"The big man asked.
"No we never have."I told them.
"Well I think you guys should."He told us.
"What are you saying?"Mel asked him.
"Sign with us like the boys."He told me.
"You sure about that?"I asked him.
