hired help.
“The hired help getting a new dress tonight,” I screamed to myself as I saw the dress laid out for me today,
It was gorgeous; the kind even Jonathan’s girlfriends would wear. He would take them to a place like this as well. Elegant; expensive and away from the shadows of people like me. But just like Jonathan Mason, even this dress was a dream. I had to give it back after the night came to end, just like my dreams of football star Nate Mason disappeared when the night ended too. I sighed; daydreaming did not pay the bills.
I changed and did some vocal exercises before going on my own little stage; today I would be performing jazz numbers throughout the night. Like the dress and my fantasies whenever I came to this place, they were borrowed as well. I sighed, what was up with me today?! Usually my pity party was reserved for the weekends with a tub of ice-cream as I thought of everything that had gone wrong with my life. This was definitely a bad omen.
My pulse throbbed in my throat as I watched the manager walk toward me, what was going on? He never interrupted me during a performance! I relaxed when I saw the smile on his face though as he slipped me a piece of paper.
“The gentleman in the far left table, number 7, has requested this song. He is about to propose so if you could just go over to them after your first song, that would be great. He tips very well too!”
I smiled and nodded, that I could do. If I was ever good at anything in this world, it was using my voice. It had served me well in many price talent shows. It had served me well when I was screaming in labor and it would definitely not let me down tonight. Maybe I could even buy my daughter a new tricycle if the tip turned out to be well enough.
I took a deep breath when it finally came to singing the couple their engagement song, this memory would be forever in their hearts. I needed to make it perfect for them. I started the song as I walked toward their table, just as the man got down on one knee, how sweet. Everything around them was perfect and the lady shrieked as she stood up. And that was where the perfection ended, because for the first time in my life, my voice failed me. My abrupt stop caused the man to look up at me and the lady to do so as well.
“Katie, what are you doing here?”
That’s what I asked myself every morning. Now my former best friend, the rich and beautiful Helen Mason was wondering the same thing. Great!ife, my voice failed me. My abrupt stop caused the man to look up at me and the lady to do so as well.

“What?” I yawned and stretched.
I chanced a glance at my clock and groaned when I realized it was still five in the morning! Seriously, I really needed to discuss boundaries with my sister. Or at least buy her a damn watch! She was talking about something at a million words per minute and I couldn’t hear a single thing, I also needed to invest in a translator. I sighed as I tried to get a word in but my attempts halting the moment my sister said her name.
“Can you imagine? I had been trying to get a hold of her for so long and then I just bump into her the day Jamie proposes, I tell you Nate, it’s fate!” she rambled on.
My mind was still stuck on the word Katie. Katherine Forster. My sister’s best friend and the most interesting girl I had ever met. Even now just thinking of her brought a smile to my face even though it had been years since I last saw her.
“Nate, are you still there?”
I wondered if I could get away with remaining silent until she gave up. I loved my sister but I had a killer hangover and needed a few hours to fix myself up.
“I will call you in an hour, okay? I’m not…up yet.”
I heard her sigh dramatically and mumble something about brothers who didn’t
