| ATS Chapter 1 |
| "What happened Sara?" Marie asked peeking through the curtains of my bunk. "He dumped me." I responded through heavy tears, "and he didn't even look upset about it." "Why? Why?! You guys were fine!" Marie exclaimed loudly,"Sorry, but...this is the last thing I expected." "Yeah me too," I sniffled, "We were out to dinner and he went to the bathroom, so when the waiter came I was just talking with him. He said something funny and I laughed. Dhani came out and started acting really strange, then on the way home he said he thought it would be better if we weren't together anymore. Our relationship had too much mistrust and jealousy!" "I'm sorry! Today..." Marie began when I cut her off rudely. "I just want to be alone right now, ok?" I stated bluntly. "Yeah sure, I uh...hope you feel better." Marie trailed off leaving me alone once again. It had been almost three months since our first real concert and our album had stayed at #1 for almost three weeks, and our group was a huge success. We were still on our first tour and had our first awards show coming up. Everything was going well, everything except for Dhani and I. We had had a few arguements before the big break-up but nothing had prepared me or even hinted at it. I was in total shock and completely heartbroken. I stayed in my bunk for nearly a week, only leaving to go do performances and such. I tried my best to look perky and act like everything was okay, but ended up just going through the motions. I didn't remember how to live my life without him, or even how to feel things. I wouldn't leave the bus unless I had to and stayed in my bunk to avoid Dhani while on the bus. Marie and Amit tried to get me out as much as possible but I refused. Marie finally talked me into going to a concert with her. It would be my first real outing in almost two weeks. *** *** "Sara!!! Hurry up! We have to leave or we're never gonna make it on time!" Marie yelled at me from the front of the bus. I turned to look into the full-length mirror. My hair was up in a messy bun and I wore very little make-up. "Guess this'll have to do." I thought to myself. "SARA!!!" I heard again. I turned and ran to the meet Marie. *** *** I stepped out of the car and followed Marie into the stadium. We danced through the whold concert then made our way backstage. The record company had given us backstage passes. We were backstage for only ten minuted when Marie disappeared. I sat there on an old couch hoping it was almost time to leave when a gentle voice startled me. |
