SZNS SERIES 1: Summer by Maria Writes (books for men to read txt) 📗

Caroline in a tall gal, with a pretty long blonde hair, and like Chloe, she is a bit pale.

Both of them are partners in crime if people are going to ask. Caroline and Chloe are inseparable. Chloe without Caroline is blunt and vice versa.

A few hours had passed and no one came to their booth. Now both Chloe and Caroline are losing hope. They never experience such problem for the past three years. If they don't have the right number of people for this year, they will be forced not to push their play.

Chloe is now hyperventilating because of nervousness when Caroline rubbed her back to calm her down.

"Calm down Chloe, it's already past lunch, let's just go back to our dorm and come up with a strategy to persuade people, we have four more days to gather people, okay?"

She sighed hearing Caroline's words because she was right, nothing will happen if I'll just sulk. I have to be smart in coming up with my plans, and I have to be laser-focus to execute this play well.

Chloe gathered herself together and head to her dorm. Caroline and her are staying on-campus to avoid any hassles, they are sharing the same dorm room and quite benefited them with the arrangement. As they entered their room, Caroline immediately turned on her laptop and make something while she just laid on the bed, thinking of ways on they should do tomorrow. Today really exhaust her. She was filled with stress and frustration. She has to make this year's play a success. She doesn't know what to do if their organization failed to have their play this year. She was a legacy to held high. She cannot fail her mother.

Her mother, Katherine King, was HFThespian's best director during the 80's. Her mother insisted her to join the organization and she cannot say no because she's the only child, she must do everything her mom says. And besides, she's gifted when it comes to performing. Thanks to her parents, she inherited her acting skills from her mom, and her singing and dancing skills from her father.

Yep, she's a complete package.

Just as she was about to talk about tomorrow's strategy, Caroline speaks as well in a voice she never hears unless she's stressed.

"We should print flyers to disseminate tomorrow. In that way, they can find us if their interested in joining us. I'll do the layout and I want you to go to the library to print a hundred copies. Understood?" Caroline said with her eyes wide open.

She just nodded without saying a word. She knows Caroline will just burst into emotion if she says a word. Caroline being Caroline is so bossy when she's stressed. Whether she admit it or not, Chloe knows that her friend is stressed as well, she is just good in hiding it. That is her dilemma with Caroline all these years, even if they're friends for years now, it is very hard to read her emotion because she is really good in hiding it.

The thought made her sigh and got up from her bed to sit beside Caroline. She was busy doing the flyers layout when Chloe gave her a hug. She just felt like hugging her friend, she knows that she has been a burden to her today that she hasn't even noticed her being stressed as well.

She just stayed hugging her while Caroline is busy on her laptop. A couple of minutes later, Chloe talked.

"Just give me everything I need to do today for the booth, I'll do it. I will also go back to the grounds later when the sun sets, I will decorate the booth as well to make it more appealing. I promise, we are going to be successful this year."

Caroline just handed her a flash drive and without saying a word, she stood put and laid on her bed. She must be really stressed today. Thanks to me who has been a real bitch.

She pushed herself to work hard tonight to make everything perfect by tomorrow. Everything must be according to her plans. First, print the flyers and decorate the booth. Two, tomorrow morning, we must be at the grounds at exactly 8 AM to make everything in place. By the end of the day, we must have the right number of people we needed.

That's it, she must take this seriously, because aside from failing to executive the play, she will also fail her parents and she doesn't want that.

With everything almost done, Chloe placed the last piece of décor on top of the booth and let out a sigh of relief. Finally, she finished decorating their booth. She looked at her phone for the time and it's already past 10 pm. She has to go back to her dorm to finish the script for the play. She entered her dorm building and started climbing up the stairs to her room.

Chloe has so much stuff to do before the week ends. And by next week, they have to held the auditions. But before that, she has to finish the audition pieces she wants the people to do. And she only has less than a week to accomplish everything.

You can do that, Chloe. You're Chloe King. You are born strong. You can handle anything.

Finally, she reached her room but when she tried twisting the door knob, it's locked. Did she really lock me out of the room? That bitch! She scrambled through her purse to look for the keys. When she finally found it she quickly inserted it to the knob, and juts as she's about to enter the room, she heard noises that her virgin ears couldn't handle. What the heck!?

Are they...? NO DON'T GO THERE CHLOE!?

She quickly skedaddled away from their room and when to June's, her cousin, room. She knocked as many times as she can because she can still hear the
