give yourself a try // the 1975
"You're going to do fine," Austin said to me over the phone as I sat in the parking lot of The Seattle Times office. "I believe in you."
"Thank you, I'm just really freaking out," I let out a long sigh. "I wish you were here with me."
"I'm sorry, my love," He sighed as well. "We just couldn't take August that far."
"No, that's not what I'm saying," I told him. "Anyways. I'm about to go in."
"Okay," He said. "Good luck, my beautiful girl. I know you're gonna kill it."
"Thank you," I chuckled.
"Say, good luck, Aunt Livi!" Austin said to August and I smiled hugely.
"Good luck, Li Li!" August said loudly into the phone and I let out a laugh. She still hadn't mastered the art of the 'V' sound so I was currently Li Li. Not that I minded, she could call me anything.
"Thank you, sugar!" I said to her. "I will see you two soon."
"Bye, babe. Good luck," Austin said and I smiled, lucky to have him. "I love you."
"I love you, too," I said. "Bye."
I pulled down the visor and slid open my mirror, checking my lipgloss. I applied some more and fixed my hair before turning my car off and looking at myself one last time.
Let's. Do. This.

3 hours agoOnce I got out of the interview, I decided to explore a little more before I headed home. I found a coffee shop to go into. It had chalk drawings all over the wall and was so charming. I ordered a dark roast coffee and walked out, walking into the record store next door.
As I browsed through the vinyls, I remembered the times with Austin. I smiled to myself, reminiscing. How did I ever live without him? I looked up at the walls, seeing a mural with caricatures of artists from all genres. I gasped when I saw a familiar face.
I immediately got my phone out and dialed Austin's number to FaceTime him.
"Hello?" He answered, his face popping up on my screen.
"Babe! Look!" I said, flipping the camera around. "You're in this record store!"
"That's sick!" He said excitedly. "Take a picture, please!"
"I will," I smiled, flipping it around on me. "I just got so excited."
He laughed and just stared at me for a second.
