Hey guys sorry it's taking so long to post. Hope you like the new chapter.
"Who is it?" I ask as I walk to the door.
"Jose." I inwardly groan, it's nothing against Jose but the last thing I want to do is have talk to someone after the week I had. After closing the door on Christian I ran to my room to cry and after an hour or so of sulking around the apartment I get a text from Kate reminding me she wouldn't be home for two weeks because she's flying out with her parents and apparently Elliot to go to the Bahamas. She said she would have reminded me in person but she couldn't find me and she along with Elliot had to hurry as not to miss their flight. My routine has become boring and sad honestly. Wakeup, work, eat, come home, take a shower, made eat again, and sleep. I open the door and Jose smiles than frowns. "Are you okay" he asked pushing his way into the apartment.
"Why wouldn't I be?" I close and lock the door behind him before sitting in the love seat next to the couch where he sat staring at me.
"I don't know you don't look good, no offense. You look like you haven't brushed your hair or teeth in a week."
"Well that is because I haven't." I laugh picking up my tea, "anyway why did you stop by?" taking a sip of my delicious tea.
"Ok moody, I stopped by to say I booked us a gig." I choke on my tea as I try to process what he just said.
"A gig? Where?"
"This woman name Miss Lincoln is hosting a garden party and she called the café asking for you and I said you have been out sick. I told her to give me her number and I would give it to you when I saw you." He handed me the number, "Also I wrote a song and I think you will like it." He also hands me the song. The song is called Beautiful and it's a duet, he continued explaining it to me.
"Wow Jose this is beautiful." I really do like it, I ask him to sing it to me and I fell even more in love with it. I tell Jose finally that I will think about the offer and get a hold of both him and Miss Lincoln when I have made a decision. Getting up to walk him to the door I give him a hug while saying my goodbyes. My stomach growls from lack of food and I reopen the door.
"Jose would you like to stay and we can order in some Chinese food? I'm hungry I don't know about you but I could use a beer and a good tv show." I laugh.
"Yeah I would love too," and we did just that sat on the couch drinking beer, eating good food, and watching re runs of back to the future. When Jose finally left for good I picked up the dishes and turned off the tv. I picked up my phone and decide to call miss Lincoln.
"Hello?" I hear her crisp clear tone and I straighten up in my seat.
"Hello this Ana, you wanted to get ahold of me?"
"Yes, I am having a garden party and I would love to have you come as the singer. You will need to have 30 songs you can perform and you will be there on duty from 7-11:30."
"Ok and what should I wear? What is the dress code?"
"All white." She states simply. "Be here at my home an hour before you need to start singing to set up. I will pay you 1,000 and if you blow me out of the water maybe it will be more." She hangs up after giving me her address and I thank her for the opportunity. I text Jose saying we have a gig and should practice his song to perform at the garden party. That night I slept well no dreams of grey eyes.
