I do not own these characters, well a few I do.
Carey's POV. March 3rd, 2001.
I listened to the message on my phone over and over. Hearing and understanding
every word, but not quite comprehending it. I think this is what they call
shock. Not sure if I'm liking it that much. I hadn't told anyone about the
phone call, not even Molly. I should tell her, I should make a decision first,
I I really don't know what I should do. And I would have to make it completely
on my own, nobody could tell me which road to take. I hit the back button the
machine setting the message back to the start point, and I listen yet again.
"Hey Carey my name is Thomas Young I am a singer with a band called Horse
Riddles. Our guitar player recently had to quit because of family situations.
Well the band and me caught your performance last week in St. Paul you have so
fuckin' amazing talent. We loved for you to be apart of our band. Call me back
at (122) 419-8232. Thanks."
I had no idea how this guy got a hold of this personally cell phone number, but
with information available everywhere it wasn't comply impossible. Horse
Riddles weren't some little wanna-be band with a lot of spirit and little
talent, they were known and talented. Not known in the fact that I could say
the name and everyone would respond, "Oh I have heard of them." More like up
and coming, on the edge of really breaking out. How great would it be to be
apart of something like that!?
I couldn't do it though. I had commits and promises I made to Molly and the
rest of the band. They needed me, not that they couldn't survive without me, oh
I don't know! We could also be on the brink of big time stardom, it's possible.
But I must admit not very likely. I love the music we do, Molly has a wonderful
voice, just people aren't into that kind of music these days. Their more into
stuff that Horse Riddles play.
My heart had the answer; my head had one as well. Unfortunately they weren't
the same. I would go with my heart, it always knows the best decision. I grab
the phone and dial the numbers, listen to the rings and wait to tell Thomas my
decision of his request.
