My eyes slowly lifted open. Where was Raven? He was gone! I immediately sat up and got off of the bed. I looked around the room. "Raven! Raven? Where'd you go?" After a few minutes of searching and calling his name, the door opened.
"Good morning." Raven sighed as he walked in with two trays. "You overslept so I brought u breakfast." He set down the two trays onto the night stand and sat on the bed, grabbing a bagel and biting into it. I grabbed a chair and sat across from Raven, grabbing my tray.
"Thanks." I said as I bit into a donut. There was a lot of awkward silence as we chewed. Raven avoided eye contact the entire time. "Oh what time is it?" I looked to the clock. 9 am? Oh no! I better not be late! I sat the tray down onto the nightstand and ran into the bathroom, grabbing a towel and an extra pair of clothes. "Thanks again Raven. I'll be in the shower ." I said as I took off my clothes, hiding myself behind the door.
"Okay, I'll be heading out."
I poked my head out from behind the door, "Where are you going?"
"Out." He said tiredly.
"Alright, will you be coming back?"
"Mmm… Probably not."
"Really?" I was a bit disappointed, "I'll miss you."
"Yeah, whatever." He slammed the door shut.
I turned the water on, he left, and I would never see him again either? He came into my life so quickly and left even faster. Well, we haven't known each other for that long. Why am I so disappointed?
My shower was over in minutes, I heard my phone ring. I grabbed the towel and wrapped it around myself. I walked out of the shower still wet, I looked at the caller ID on my phone. It was my manager, I sighed as I accepted the call, "Hello, Stella."
"Hello Rena! I have wonderful news!"
"News?"
"Yes! Yesterday there was a break in into the auditorium!"
"Ummm... I'm not really sure how that's good news."
"The good news is that the security team had found footage of you singing on stage! They sent it to me and I sent it to my boss, he loves it!"
"R-Really?"
"Yep! Rena! Pack your bags, you can't live in that lousy apartment anymore! You're going to be a star!"
I was silent; I could feel my heart racing.
. . . . .
I packed my things; I couldn't believe this was happening so suddenly! Stella had immediately called a limo. No more apartments for me. She told me that the company was providing me with a much bigger and better HOUSE to live in.
Why would the company want me to be an idol so suddenly, after only one accidental preview of my singing? There was another knock on my door, "Raven?" I called brightly.
"Uhhh…. Errr… No, this is Vanessa."
"Oh." I was a bit heartbroken, but I opened the door with an imitated smile on my face. "What's up?"
"There's a limo outside for you. Something special, I assume?" She grinned.
I nodded, "Yep."
"Good luck out there." Vanessa helped me with my suitcases, we walked out of the room, I looked back, and it was so empty. I walked through the hallways with Vanessa right by my side. She helped me into the limo and closed the door. I waved out the window to her as the limo drove away.
I looked out the window, watching the buildings pass by rapidly. I rested my eyes. For some reason I could only think of Raven. Raven was the first person that I talked to for something besides work, even though it was because he saved my life. My work had completely taken away my social life. Well there's no chance that I can quit now. My career is getting started!
. . . . .
"WOW!" I looked up, this wasn't a house. It was a MANSION! It was huge! I looked around. It was already furnished with beautiful glass and wooden furniture. There was a giant spiral stairwell leading up to three floors! Why would a person need this much space?
"Stella will be here shortly." My new butler bowed and walked away.
I explored the house, it was beautiful! Big white walls, displayed with pictures of nature. Black leathered chairs circled around a giant glass coffee table. This house is just for me?
I heard someone walk in and looked behind myself, there was Stella. "Hello Rena." She smiled brighter than average.
"Hello." I said with a real smile to my face.
"Do you like your new home?"
"Yes, but is it really necessary for this house to be so big?"
"Of course, a new idol must live like one."
"But, I'm not an idol YET."
"I can tell you will be one day. You have a beautiful voice, you write your own songs and you love music. You may even perhaps have an actor's quality." She circled around me with her fingers to her chin.
"Oh, thank you."
"You're welcome. You're career starts today! Get ready, I'll tell Chung to bring your new clothes right away."
"Chung?"
"Your new butler, I believe that you have already met him?"
"Oh, yes I have. Isn't he a bit too young to be a butler?"
"He was adopted by the agency, it is quite normal for this sort of thing."
I felt a bit sad for him, living on his own and working for others just like I am. It's a sad life.
"Okay, so I'll just be going. Remember your first voice recording starts in fifteen minutes. If my bosses like you, you're in."
"I won't disappoint you!"
"Good." She exited through the door, "Chung will show you to your room."
Chung came into the house after Stella had left; he came in carrying piles of clothes in his arms. "Hello, Rena, My name is… Ugh… My name is Chung." He tried to balance the clothes.
"Ummm… Here! Let me." I took some clothes from him.
"N-No! No, you can't! It's my job!" Chung shook.
"It's okay, it's okay!" I giggled. Chung was obviously the clumsy type.
"Well, if you insist." He led me towards my room which was on the second floor.
It was big. Although I could've picked any room in the house, this room was meant for me.
"Well you better get ready soon. You have only ten minutes."
"Oh!" I rushed.
Chung left the clothes on my new dresser and asked as he was about to leave the room. "Is there anything else you need?"
"No, but thank you Chung." I smiled and rushed into my new closet.
The closet was huge! But for now it was empty. I quickly changed into one of the outfits, as shown on the packet of pictures. Wow…. Today was going to be different.
Me: Am angry.
Raven: Why?
Me: *growls at you* Oh you know perfectly well why. *Holds a .45 ACP loaded pistol*
Raven: Woah woah O_O hold your fire.
Me: *bangs my head on the table*
Everyone o_o
