"I'll crush them! I'll crush them even though I don't make it to the finals!" Derek spat angrily as he watched Nicholas smirk towards him as he held the medal.
★
Music high is a popular school for arts students who want to further their career in music.
It is hella expensive which means the students came from reach background.
But some— are through community scholarship.
Derek is one of the most popular and handsome singer in music high. His grades were top and he was the center of attraction.
His greatest rival was Nicholas. Nicholas was one of the best. And also has good look on par with that of Derek.
Derek thought he was unmatchable/unbeatable until he engage in a school challenge with Nicholas and Nicholas won because of their lead single who could sing and also dance.
Derek organized with his manager to get him an extraordinary singer and dancer so that he could win and show Nicholas who is boss.
Nana, Is a good singer and dancer in her home town who was sponsored by her community to Music High.
But she was poor. This made under students look down on her and despise her cause of her talent.
She had to be in one of the big band to not be bullied and unfortunately,they all had a singer and dancer.
Except Derek's squad.
Derek hates poor students and also students without talent. He thought Nana was one of them.
Nana knew how much Derek hates her because of her poor background.
She knew he would never except her.
Nana had to change her identity to be interviewed by the all mighty Derek.
People in her community had given her their best. She has to give them her best too..

Music 1
The application to become the dancer for one of the most popular and singer in Music high: Derek was holding right at a musical building in the school compound.
The magnificent and beautiful building was built purposely for Derek and his bands.
Unlike other school days, the school was extremely busy with ladies from different states, they were hundreds and its really surprising to know that Derek management will only pick one dancer.
Everyone knows Derek as the best singer, he wins practically all song context but lost the recent one cause he didn't have a dancer.
Now that he needs a dancer badly, I would definitely be applying.
I know I stand a little chance of winning but since applying doesn't hurt, I decided to apply.
Mary ran to me on seeing me.
She was my best friend.
"Nana!" She called my name and we hugged.
"You could have come to class first." She said.
"No no, don't you see the number of people that applied, my number is 70... some people's number are above 200 I don't want to slack on this." I said. Trying to get her off me.
She licked her lower lips and said; "But...you know you are wasting your time, Nana Everyone knows Derek hates you and the last thing he would ever want is to have you as his dancer..."
"Are you discouraging me already?" I asked,my face in a frown.
"No..." She said and glanced at the crowds of applicants.
"I actually have a plan..."
"Tell me about it?" She requested.
I brought out some make up and clothes.
“when it's about to reach my turn,I'll put in on!"
"You want to pretend to be a goth baddie?" Mary asked.
"Well...if that's what it takes"
Mary was quiet for a while and said; "I won't discourage you, I'll sit here until you are done...Good luck."
She then went to sit.
I waited for a while until it was the turn for number 70 to be called.
"Number 70 your turn." Someone shouted from the inside and I walked in.
I appeared in a large and very beautiful hall, I was on a stage while Derek , his four bands and his management sat as judges.
"Show us your dancing skills." His manager said and one of Derek music was played.
It was one favorite song of his.
I began to dance. People used to tell me that my dancing skills will make way for me and I believed it.
In the past, I had danced flawlessly. I had participated in many local dance context and won.
But this is a professional one that requires extra skill and...grace.
I heard claps from them all of a sudden and an expression of happiness could be read on their faces.
Derek was the first to stand.
"This is beautiful." He said and clapped the more.
I was surprised. I didn't know he could look this please.
This goth thing got luck.
His four brothers stood too and continued clapping, then his management stood up and clapped for me.
My head swell and I can't help but ask myself if I had been picked or...
I was confused.
"Congratulations." I finally heard his manager said and I screamed happily to the top of my voice.
My mind drifted to how I would bless my poor and devasted community with money earned from being Derek Dancer.
"We need to see your singing talent Goth princess"
One of Derek band brothers said
A mic was given to me.
Good thing I had prepared.
I opened my mouth to sing and the music took me.
I sang This love by Taylor swift.
When I was done,everyone stoop up with encomium.
God! This is a dream come through for me.
Bobby whispered some words into the ear of Derek, he then turned to him and said; "Yes, dismiss the rest. This lady here is so good. I love her dancing and singing skills." His manager went out to dismiss everyone.
My happiness would have been full if I was my real self but I was actually putting on a mask.
God help me, I was extremely nervous.
They all walked to the stage and began to shake me hands to hands one after the other , saying; "Congratulation,Welcome to the band."
I shook the first four brothers and then, it was Derek's turn.
My heart was beating loudly.
What if he recognizes me?
I had heard him vowed during an interview on the television that he would never see any reason to touch poor people.
I don't understand why he hates us so much but here is, about to touch me.
He probably thought I was rich.
"Are you wealthy?" He asked softly before he extended his hand to shake me.
It won't be good if I lie in my very first conversation with him.
Afterall, they need my skill and not my identity.
"No." I shook my head in response.
He ran a distance away from me and began to examine his body.
"Call the doctor, she's poor, she must have contacted me with a germ." He said and his manager ran out hurriedly.
He came back with a middle aged doctor and the man began to quickly examine Derek
What! What exactly does he see poor people as?
Jeez!
"You are fine sir!" The doctor said to hIm and he breathed heavily.
"Bobby! what we're you doing that you didn't know a poor girl applied for my contest?" He shouted at Bobby.
"I am poor and so what? I will be rich some day too"
I ran out with tears pouring heavily from my face. Not like I chose poverty, I was just a victim.
And there I was, being treated like I housed germs.

Music 2
Mary sighted me crying beside the building and ran to me.
She sat beside me and before I could even tell her what happened, she bursted into a loud cry.
After we had both cried, we relaxed.
"I know he would find out and embarrass you, was that what happened?" She asked me.
"I exposed my identity already but that was after he chose me as his dancer. I let out.
" Congratulations!" She screamed happily.
"I think he would call for another dancer's context, he would definitely not want me to be his dancer for any reason, remember what happened the last time I stepped his shoe? Derek hates me so much and I know" I lamented bitterly.
Mary was quiet for a while before speaking; "Did he chase you out or you walked out yourself?"
"Huh! Am I suppose to wait till he chase me out? He was already embarrassing me believing I have so much germs on my body." I explained to Mary.
"Your skill is outstanding, give him time. If he realizes that he can not do without your skill, he will send for you." Mary said and dragged me up.
As I stood, I turned to mary pathetically and said; "But there are better dancers and singer than me, why do you think he may not be able to do without my skill?"
"There may be better dancers than you but no one in this world dance in the exact same way that you do." She said.
I nodded and felt encouraged, maybe in the future, Derek would really send for me.
Gerald POV
I watched the poor girl walked out of the stage, I recognized her to the girl that made Derek angry last week Tuesday when she hugged him by mistake. What audacity does she even have to apply for his context?
Derek who had just watched the poor girl left turned angrily to Bobby; his manager and said; "If not because you have being with me for years, I would have ordered that you should be fired."
"Derek! be calm." Bobby said and walked to him.
He does not look scared at all.
"The next context is holding in two weeks time, we did not have time at all... Are you interested in her skill or her status?" Bobby asked.
"Organize another contest immediately.' Derek said and went to sit.
He rested his head on his palm.
" No." Boby answered and went to sit beside him.
"I'm your manager and I know what is best for this band, organizing a contest will take another one week leaving you with one week, are you insinuating that a week is enough to practice with your dancer?" Bobby asked.
"Brother, I think you should listen to Bobby. We need her skills not her status...it's too late to organize another context!" Lucas the most gentle amidst us said.
"Bobby, Organize another contest." Derek insisted.
"Fine, if it's what you want!" Bobby said an walked out.
Those present with me knew better not to utter a word.
A week later, we were in the same hall sitting as the judge for another dance context.
Many ladies participated but Derek didn't like any of their dancing skills.
After the contest was over, he lowered his head sadly to the desk.
"Derek, we have six days left after today, should we still let Nana out of this?" Bobby asked.
Derek raised his head after a while and said; "I can't have anything to do with poor people, is that too hard to understand?”
Derek walked out and we followed him.
Two days to the final context, Derek hasn't got a dancer still.
Derek was at the sitting room staring at the television that was displaying the video song of one of his songs that he would be performing in two days time.
Lucas,Troy,Stephan and I walked to join him at the living room
Before we could even talk, Derek said; " I don't want to believe Bobby has sent you to try to convince me about that poor girl?" He threw the question up in the air for all of us.
"Not at all." Lucas answered. "Derek we only want to know how we would be performing without a dancer in the next two days, don't you think no matter how best we sing, we still wouldn't win."
"If I do not win...it will hurt but I love that compared to performing with that poor girl." Derek said adamantly.
"Fine." Lucas stood. "I hope you also know that if we lose this time, our fan base will keep decreasing and the bands in our favour will start switching to our competitor."
We all walked away from him.
It was finally the day of the context, our competitor; Nicholas and his beautiful bands had already performed and they were leading all other bands with 40 points."
We were the last band to perform.
Derek held the microphone and began to sing, while we parted the songs, few minutes into our performance, a female dancer suddenly joined us and began to dance perfectly to our song.
The cheers amidst the crowd increased, Derek was stunned at the increase in the shouts of crowds in our support, Derek turned at the same time. He turned to see who the strange dancer was.
Behold, it was Nana.
