I get a text message on my phone. – Jenny. I close the listening tab and go to messages.

‘ What are you doing tonight? ’

‘ I'm at my parents' house tonight. And need to read a book. ’ I reply.

Not even a minute goes by. There's a call from Jenny.

‘ Hello ’ I say.

‘ It makes it easier to communicate, ’ Jenny says.

A few seconds of silence. I say:

‘ Jenny, I'm so worried about the audition. ’

‘ No, Jake, don't be! You're going to do great. ’

‘ I hope so. ’

A knock is heard in the background of the conversation.

‘ Jenny, is someone here to see you? ’

‘ It's Bella, ’ she said.

I hear rustling and some talking. Jenny continues:

‘ Bella offers to stop by your place. ’ After these words I hear some interference. ‘ Ouch, or rather I suggest. ’

I laugh.

‘ Of course come! I'll be waiting for you. ’ I finish.

The phone conversation stops. I put the phone on the nightstand by the bed and leave the room to get my mom's laptop.

I walk down the stairs, turn my head to the right and see my mother. She's sitting in the hall, finishing her coffee and watching some show. I start asking loudly so my mom can hear me.
