The third day of the week: Wednesday, is going to be the most terrifying day of my life. My audition to be in the play, Peter Pan. I'm trying out for the part Tiger Lily but so is Izzy and that means I'm gonna be a part of a little lost boy with maybe two lines if I get lucky. Izzy is the stage managers daughter (or should I say little diva) who gets every part she wants and I want for that matter.
Today is Wednesday and I'm little uneasy (I'm freaking out) ok walking down the pathway to the stage is nerve racking because I can't feel my legs. "Hello my name is Tiffany javick but call me Tiffy. I'm singing take me out to the ball game and reciting the rhyme ' little miss muffin' thank you" Beginning to sing I think I'm wobbling in front of those directors-it must be bad because the music teacher is holding back laughter. The main director is holding her hand in front of her mouth and the lady in charge of costumes has turned her back and checking her phone.
I'm onto my poem and its doing great " little miss muffin sat on a tuffin eating her..." Then it hits me-no it rings in my ear, the lady in charge of costumes',miss Tellice, phone ribbits like a frog and all my lines disappear. " Was that a frog" and then I get so embarrassed I run off stage crying! As soon as I'm outside I hear a familiar voice say
"Oh Tiffy I saw it you did great no matter how bad you messed up I topped it all" I turned around wiping my tears and see Izzy McCardnole with the most sympathetic look in her eyes. She continued " Oh I was terrible you should have seen me I got on the stage and froze-that's all I did other then mummer' somebody help me' oh I was so embarrassed but you..you nailed it!!!!" This was the first time I ever saw Izzy as a friend and not a competitor. I guess everything happens for a reason.
A few weeks later the cast comes out. I'm not tiger lily (big woop let me guess who is) but then I read what part I actually got...I'm Mrs. darling! I keep reading to see who my best friend forever without exception (bffwe) is playing. Before I find her name there it is...no there it isn't. Izzy didn't get the part she is tinker bell...and Natalia (or my bffwe) is tiger lily. I'm happy for her. We all got good parts, but I didn't get the one I really wanted.
Oh well. We'll have fun.
