Chapter 7
"Angela have you seen my notebook full of my sketches?" I asked weeks later.
"No but I thought I heard Jessica saying that she would get you back for taking 'her' music to the piano festival." Angela exclaimed. I hurriedly went over to Jessica's dorm room.
"Jessica did you take my art notebook?" I asked.
"No why in God's name would I want that trash?" she glared. She shut the door and I headed to the room Angela had left. I noticed a note on my bed with a rose and a diamond right beside it. The note read:
Dear Mlle. Chagny,
If you would like your notebook back, meet me on the stage.
Your Obedient Friend,
O.G.
P.S. Here is a rose for a rose and a diamond ring for the beauty you possess.
I quickly put on the ring, and put the rose in a cup of water, then headed to the stage. When I got there I saw no one.
"Hello! Anyone there?" I asked. I saw a shadowy figure come out of the side of the stage…. it was the Phantom with my notebook! He stared at me his eyes holding childlike innocence. He looked at my hand noticing the ring then a smile gleamed on his face… a smile.
"Your notebook my dear." he said. I opened the notebook and found an application for tryouts on would represent the school for this world wide piano contest, held at this school this year. I also found music for the audition laying on my art. The music was the actual Phantom of the Opera Overture (ironic, I thought.) I looked up at him and at the music once again.
"I know you're still a bit frightened of me my dear, but I am harmless, and if you allow me to tutor you, you shall be in and win this contest." he whispered gently.
