Play your guitar Sophie
Trapped
Of course, taking a bath in a hotel is not the same as taking a bath in your own home. The hotel gives you a little soap, a little shampoo, a little toothpaste, a clean, fragrant towel, hangtat water and a bathroom with a bath tub. I decided to soak for a while enjoying the warm water soaking my body and relaxing the entire muscles in my body.
The time I took a shower there, a kind of ‘klik’ sound on the door and soon I said, “There are people!”. Maybe this is the time I finished the bath. I dry my body and hair and start to change clothes. I applied a moisturizer, a little powder and lipstick on my face and was about to open the bathroom door.
But this door can't be opened. I tried many times – times but not open as well. I tried to scream, though,
“Halo”
“There are people outside?”
“Please open”
But there's no one outside. I gedor – gedor bathroom door is also free. I searched – find my HP and only realized that I didn't take it to the bathroom. The show is about to start and I'm still stuck in the bathroom. Once again I gedor – gedor the bathroom door and heard the sound,
“Sophie!? You're inside?”
“Din .. Dino! Yes Din …! I'm inside! Open Din!” I screamed to recognize that Dini's voice was outside.
Bathroom door shaken – shake and still not open.
“You lock the room from inside Soph?” Dino yelling.
“Ne is Din. Why am I the key. I don't know. I didn't lock it when I came in!” I screamed in despair. The temperature in the bathroom was hot, making my ready face now sweaty, big – as big as corn that I usually give to Fernando.
“Soph.I'm looking for a hotel technician only!” I heard Dino say. I stayed in the bathroom, sitting on the edge of the bath tub. I was right – miss toebroek. It must be at a time like this Grandma and Frans are busy again. Fortunately there is Hardin who wants to help – help. Hardin it's kind of like a son-in-law.What we do, he's coming. I miss him too. I should have been dating like this like her like any other girl in the world. Sunday night khan time for dating. But why am I even working here? Stuck in the bathroom again. I became angry at myself.
“Soph! You're inside?” this time I heard Stan's voice.
“Iya Stan, inside!” i'm yelling.
“Kok can get to that key how is the story? Event is about to start.”
“Well, don't know what Stan's story is! Am I purposely locked like this?” I said annoyed. Is there anyone locked but intentional? Except Harry Houdini or Chris Angel of course.
Then I heard the bathroom door on tap – tap, on push – push and Dino yell, “mechanics hotel already come Soph! You'll be out in a minute!”
After waiting for a while, the door finally opened as well and I breathed a sigh of relief. Stan took my makeup equipment. He took a tissue and cotton swab and began to wash my face from sweat. He took the powder and rubbed it on my face.
“Already Stan, don't be thick – thick. Later people think I'm a clown, not a singer.”
Stan laughs.
“You're cantic now. Do you remember all the songs you were going to sing?”
I'm nodding.
“You remember all your parts?”
I nodded again.
“Iya Stan, yes. I remember everything. You don't worry.”
“Ok ... ok ...” Stan said as he raised his two hands.
I took Mama's guitar and was about to go on stage before Dino left me.
“Sophie, I was looking for – find you to hand this over.” Dino handed me a guitar. The guitar is nice, modern looking with an electronic regulator on the side.
“Sophie, it looks like you can't use your guitar this time,” said Dino.
I was surprised because I felt there was no problem what – with this guitar Mama. “What's wrong ? The sound is still OK and the strings are good – is fine Din.”
“Such an old guitar does not deserve to be on an event like this,” Diana chirped with an exasperated face. I don't understand this girl any more. What mistake did I make that he didn't like me so much. “What is your problem really? After a whole day of trouble with me and you're locked in the bathroom? Who else do you want to get attention from?”
“Diana, can you shut up for a minute ? You have made many people ‘panas’ today,” firmly Dino while looking at Diana sharply before I had time to answer . “That's not what I mean Sophie. But we're short of extra mike for your guitar. So you have to use that guitar,” Dino pointed to a guitar that looks good. The guitar has a kind of tool that can be directly connected to the loud speaker. “You try Sophie.” first
I took that guitar. A little heavier than your guitar. I tried to play and I heard her voice was so clear. Maybe clearer than Mama's guitar. But I have to say that I have no attachment what – is with this guitar. This guitar is like a stranger who has absolutely no idea who I am nor do I know who he is. Although I can play it well, but still I feel less fitting, uncomfortable, doubt – doubtful and others as much.
“Din, is there no other way that I can keep using my guitar ?”
Doni. It seems I have to accept it.
“Already, don't be too much behavior. You know how noisy these – people were when you disappeared? Are you deliberately seeking attention? Let – people worry you're not here, is that it? Now use a good guitar just want to belagu? The guitar is not appropriate in a hotel like this. But more precisely, a village girl like you does not deserve to play in a starry hotel like this,” Diana again attacked me.
Duh, this girl. It's been – times I want to punch her in the face. But the time is always not right. If it were just the two of us, we wouldn't be playing right away, and there weren't many people here, I would've knocked him out yesterday. I don't know which bravado got into it, but I don't cry anymore if this chick bothers me.
“I've tried to honor Sister Diana as a senior here. But Diana's sister doesn't deserve respect. It may be true Stan said, Sister Diana is old, and almost no longer selling. If there was no me, Sister Diana would not be used in this place,” I said calmly while trying to catch my breath.
He came to hold my hand. Outside I heard the show has started. The hotel leaders began to talk in turn. Sometimes I hear laughter and applause. It was different from what happened backstage, Diana and I. I clap his hands and I push his body. He went forward again and then with a hazy eye said,
“That's why Dino managed to find you. You should have rotted in that bathroom. That bathroom door won't lock by itself khan?” he smiled cunningly. Eyes shiny.
“You!” i'm upset. But that was exactly when our two names were called onto the stage.
