Janelle POV

I woke up to the annoying sound of my alarm, the rate at which I turned it off is annoying also different. I stood up and get ready quickly leaving a note that says “am gone” on his bedroom door, my twin brother. I wonder how he still manage to keep hold of his job being constantly late.

I work as a waiter at this restaurant down the street, since we lost our parents and our relatives isn’t the best option cos when we’re with them, we’re constantly maltreated, so we wait till we turned 18 and move out to somewhere far like Hollywood when they live at New York. My brother is also a waiter but at a casino three feet across our street.

I keep collecting orders and delivering them, when suddenly this news caught my attention about Nicholas musical high hosting a talent hunt for free, I mean NMH is the second biggest and largest music schools in Hollywood, aside Hollywood’s arts. I focus my attention keenly on the news, “It comes surprisingly that Nicolas Musical High is hosting a talent hunt audition for free at the school’s auditorium, it says any special talented kid should come for recognition, and also no fee required. Note just three special people will be picked.” The news lady finished her speech.

I just can’t believe my ears, me when I thought this is our end road of being successful. I delivered the order currently in my hand and call in sick for the day immediately.

I rushed home texting and calling Dorian at the same time to know if he heard the news, and he just keep snubbing my messages and cutting my calls.

Dorian sometimes can be impossible, I mean he can sometimes be mad I don’t call him daily or get upset for me calling him. And today’s call is important.

I got home, went straight to our store room and brought out our abandoned instruments out. Instruments containing a two shining new guitars , one piano with is personal stand, and two black and white microphones for us each.

Mum got this for us as our 15th birthday gifts, when she discover we’re special. The last birthday they celebrate with us, I mean what could go wrong on her and dad coming to get us from school.

I wiped the tears falling off my face, and barged into my brother’s room to see him still asleep on his bed.

“Wtf!!!!!!!” I screamed, he jerked up fisting his hands

“Get out of my room Mal!” He said dropping back on his bed.

“Well your boss said you’re fired!!” With that said he sprang up like a thunder bolt.

I watch as he run around the room like a crazy person, I said nothing as he keep scattering everywhere. I check the time to see he is ultimately fired, how could someone spend 16 hours sleeping none stop? Yeah my brother.

“Get out! I need to change,” he ordered hastily, about dropping off his boxers

“Woah, woah, won’t u even shower,”

“Am freaking late, just get out,”. I get out laughing to myself.

I watch as my brother scurried off like a thief to his workplace. And just about 10mins later he waltzed back in straight to his room, I got up to go share the news with him to cheer him up, cos it obvious they fired him.

“Hey, I see they fire u already,”

“Is not there fault am lazy,”

“No you’re not, in-fact I have some good news for ya,”

“Not this time Mal,” he just love calling me by my middle name

“NMH is holding a talent hunt starting tomorrow,” I dropped the shell with a lot of enthusiasm. My brother just look at me and look away. “So????” I said again.

“So what? We haven’t practiced in years, how are we ever going to get in?”

“Maybe with a little courage and hope,”

“That doesn’t exist,”

“U know u just got fired right? Huh look for another job and get fired there also with your laziness, or think ahead of yourself for once Carlos! For once! And stop being a boy!” I said in one breathe about loosing my cool. He look at me, I knew he don’t care about my words.

“Gat any song in mind,” yayyyyy, told ya my brother is 0-level bipolar.

<<<<<Two days later>>>>>>>>>

Also the last day of NMH talent hunt

So far so good, NMH haven’t pick anybody, so I believe we still have a chance after a lot of practice. Dorian is now hot once again.

We got to the auditioning a-bit late, submit our applications and were given numbers, told em am singing a duet with my brother. We settled down on singing and playing “Perfect harmony” by Madison Reyes ft Charles Gillespie.

On our number it says 24&25, so we have just three more people ahead us, I won’t lie am kinda nervous. I stood up to take a peek at the judges to see the almighty “Golden boys” being the judge, I mean those boys are the meanest, rudest being on planet earth, no wonder they’ve not been able to choose one person since the hunt started. They’re group of three boys, a band rather, they once dropped an album that hit the whole America for a year, So year they’re kinda hell popular.

“Number 24&25, you’re up,” The lady in front of the podium says and signal to us at the backstage, where we are. Oh gosh am super nervous.

Dorian stood up and held my hands tight with his as we walk to the stage.

“Dorian and Janelle Sharks right, [scoffs],” said one of them

“Shanks!” Dorian replied looking intimidating.

“Well you should know, if two of us three say yes to whatever u came to sing, you’re officially in, if we don’t u know the answer,” he said nonchalantly.

“We’ll be singing “Perfect harmony” I said heading to the piano stand.

*Clears throat*

I fixed my microphone well on micro space provided on top the piano

My brother started off his parts, bringing in the melody

*Step into my world*

He give way to sing my part, switching to the solo part

Him:You’re more to me

Together *We create a perfect harmony*.

We finished our performance smiling at the spark in us is re-ignite, I look at the crowds to see an amazing look on their face as they rouse up and clap for us, as we bow gentlemanly. I glance at the judges to see Scott the Golden boys leader crying. Why is he crying? “It a no from me,” He said suddenly, shutting up the already surprised crowds and turning them into bewildered ones.

One thing is that, if it a no from the leader, it a no from all of them.
