Oh, hi, Marjorie. And, what's new?

- We have tickets for Hanson.

Maybe I'll come to the concert.

- Is sold. For months.

In addition,

why would you want to come with us?

Yes, I also think

because you belong to something, do you?

Yes.

Yes.

Ok, I'll see you sometime.

See ya.

I was scared.

I felt so alone.

Everything was different.

I closed my eyes and felt

that my eyes the tears

could not hold back.

I began to cry, to me, to Cybil

by Darcy at all.

Most of all I cried for Todd Sparrow.

For a moment it felt like,

as he would put his arms around me.

And that was nice.

May I come in, dear?

- Yes, Daddy, come clean.

Why are you crying?

- I do not cry.

Ok.

Do you know

your mom and I are old.

We can not understand many things.

But we want you to know one thing:

We are so incredibly proud of you.

And grateful that you exist.

The day is come tomorrow.

Daddy?

Yes, dear?

Lhr understands everything.

Good night, darling.

"Thank you for your letter, Andrea.

Us feel good.

We have added much new material.

The CD should be out soon.

Take care of yourself.

And thank you for your support. Todd. "

The manager would also be

may have written.

Sh*t, I suddenly knew,

I had to do.

Kevin.

I'm so sorry.

Oh, no big deal.

I get us' n water.

- He was so understanding.

'Ne good idea.

And I hated it.

Everything ok?

Who would have thought that good looks,

Intelligence, charm and honesty

could be merged in a boy

me and not the so-turns?

But maybe that was my destiny.

Maybe it was my fate,

and I would learn to love him.

And then every night we would ...

Kevin.

I need to get out.

- I'm coming with you.

Toll.

Exactly what I meant.

You really think our way

for a rising star.

This ladies' man.

This is likely bootlicker here

did not live.

Not to mention his appearances throughout.

This record bosses do not know

what is good and what is bad.

- He was like a verbal percussion drill.

With a constant hum

He drilled into your brain,

until you loved him best out of your head

would blow up.

Kevin.

Do you play music?

No.

Wait a minute.

Cybil!

Andrea!

Cybil?

Hi, Andrea.

Where have you been?

To Mitchell.

- For Mitchell?

He said if I 's place

needed to sleep, I could stay.

I needed him, so I stayed.

That's it.

Everything is ok?

Andrea.

Could you take my school closet

clear up for me? I'll do ne fly.

We have only two months before us.

- Why should I torture myself?

I'm not so 'n Ass like you

- Hey, I'm not an ace, yes?

The knowledge on the Brown University

apparently not.

And what becomes of your degree?

I do not think

I need to at all.

You have 'n record deal, am I right?

My God!

I am so incredibly proud of you.

- My lyrics, my.

Those were always yours.

Andrea!

Do you remember me?

- We need to celebrate somewhere.

I will strike for the first appearance

the Music Hall before.

Sure to come good.

- Hey.

Hey.

- Are you okay?

Fairly well.

- Where were you, Cybil?

Oh man Kurt Cobain has never

'Ne thrown sample.

The still's not at all know?

- What we do not know?

Buzz Mitchell has talked to me.

And now we make 'a record.

Hey, guys, this is Todd Sparrow label.

Not for long. And you are famous.

I just can not believe it.

I knew it.

I knew it. I've told you.

Sh*t, I'm soon 'ne system

with 24 tracks. No. By 48

No, with innumerable tracks.

- I can not believe it's still.

I do not believe this.

- Is perhaps better that way.

He just wants me.

- What?

He just wants me.

And then you told him that we

'Are a band and always have. Or?

That we 'ne unit.

We're a unit. We're a band.

Got it?

Buzz says,

you are not mature enough as a musician.

I'm supposed to occur with other types.

I play probably

not even own bass.

Sh*t.

Richard. I could not do anything for you.

I've always said you're the band,

Cybil.

I wish you all the best.

You'll make it

Your lyrics, what?

Listen to me. It's never been gone,

as I wanted. Now I have a chance.

And I do not think

I will excuse myself.

Sure. Cybil must never apologize.

That makes everything so much easier.

Not Cybil?

Make business interests

and art together,

is a conflict almost inevitable.

- Wimp, just simply shut up.

I was just

to believe in this whole rock star crap.

What it delivers on stage

is not sh*t. It's good.

Yes?

- Yes. Yes, sure.

And what shall I say more?

So, how did you react just as,

that was incredible.

I'd gone crazy full.

Yes.

Well, if one so much disappointment

and humiliation as has happened to me,

then you learn

to take it with a certain dignity.

Really?

So I think you're great.

Hey, you bum. Do you know what I know?

- No idea.

"Color Green" have tonight

her first big appearance.

Guess who breaks forth.

Only, not to return by Todd Sparrow

considered to be? Forget it.

Am in the process.

- Me too.

I like you, man, I know I red

'A whole lot when the day is long.

There is not much time for most,

what to bring myself.

But are you anyway

more of the quiet variety.

How far is it for?

- I do not think

that it can still be very far.

Folks, I swear,

that it must be here somewhere.

Crap, crap. We will miss him.

We will not see him.

We will miss him.

- Sweet, do not get excited. Here.

Take what the calm down.

When we go at last?

- Oh dear.

It obviously has something against someone,

I see Todd.

Screwed up sh*t.

Sh*t.

- It goes forward.

It goes forward.

Ok, all right, come in..

ID cards.

Why?

On the poster

was no age restriction.

One can not just believe everything

what one reads.

Hey, we went an extra 200 miles.

- Then you have 's broad back.

Why do not you go in and say

Todd Sparrow, that Andrea Marr's there?

And I did not have a pen here.

Yes, and then tell Todd also

that Suzy's waiting outside.

The small, with the tattoo.

- Where is the tattoo?

It's wherever you want.

- Come on.

And you, a good trip.

And on it goes.

And what now?

- I guess we will go home.

Do you? Is not that bad here.

- I think that's bad is not.

Andrea, please. We can finally go?

- I belong to Todd.

I must see him, absolutely.

It takes a long time now, certainly not.

And as he walked through the light.

He would see and recognize me,

what he had made a mistake.

He would ask me for forgiveness.

Todd.

Todd.

Todd.

Sh*t, that was the absolute

worst experience of my life.

I agree with that, man

Suddenly I realized

that maybe, just maybe,

I, Andrea Marr, was about

become a groupie.

And my existence would no longer

differ from those

love him too.

And although we love all the same,

I felt different.

I always felt like something special.

Because maybe, just maybe,

his smile was meant for me.

That night I had

a crazy dream.

They were all there. Darcy, Rebecca,

Cybil.

Todd was also there. They were all there.

All except me.

I was somewhere else. I was ...

I had taken drugs? No idea

what is the meaning of this dream.

And so the author tries

the journey of the reader
