Audrey sat beside Becky and asked softly, âBecky, whatâs wrong?â
Becky sobbed as she cried. âMiss Audrey, I, Iâ¦â
âAlright, alrightâ¦â Audrey pulled him into her arms and gently patted his back. âDonât be sad. Just call me by my name. Thereâs no need to be so polite with me.â
Beckyâs eyes were swollen from crying. After a few minutes, she asked in a choked voice, âAudrey, am I a failure?â
Audrey was very surprised by her words. âHow can that be? Why do you think so? Youâre so outstanding, so why do you think youâre a failure?â
Becky wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, âI really feel terrible⦠When I was auditioning that day, I really regretted that I didnât perform well. Otherwise, I wouldnât have missed a role in Romeo and Juliet.â Oh, so it was because of this.
Audrey was stunned for a moment. Soon, she patted Beckyâs back with heartache and said, âBecky, Eric⦠My second brother has his own criteria for choosing people. Itâs not that youâre bad that he didnât choose you. It might just be that he has other thoughts.â
âI know. Itâs my own problem⦠Audrey, you donât have to comfort me. I knew a long time ago that I had many shortcomings, but I just didnât want to face them.â Becky looked sad, as though her heart had been broken.
Audrey sighed, then gently comforted her. âBecky, donât think too much, okay?â
Beckyâs eyes were red as she looked at Audrey and said, âAudrey, thank you for comforting me. Actually, I donât have anything to feel aggrieved about. I wasnât chosen as an actor in a stage play because Iâm not good enough. Thank you for being willing to listen to me spout so much nonsense.â
Audrey didnât know whether to laugh or cry. âBecky, you have to believe in yourself. Youâre an outstanding person to begin with. Thereâs no need for you to doubt yourself.â
Becky took a deep breath and said, âAudrey, Iâll continue to work hard in the future. I want to regard you as my role model. In the future, Iâll come to the auditorium every day to watch you rehearse. I want to learn your acting skills.
Donât reject me.â
Looking at Beckyâs sincere gaze, Audrey couldnât help but feel a little sad.
âBecky, youâre a very talented person to begin with,â Audrey said earnestly. âRomeo and Juliet is just an ordinary stage play. So what if you didnât get chosen this time? Youâll still have many opportunities in the future.â
Becky still had a sad expression on her face. âAudrey, to be honest, Iâve always admired Senior Eric. Heâs so talented. Back when I found out that he would return to school to participate in a stage play, I hoped to work with him.â âHeavens!â Audrey couldnât help but cover her mouth in surprise.
âOf course, I knowâ¦â Becky said dejectedly. âIâm just an ordinary person. How would I dare to hope that Senior will notice me one day? I only hope that when he recalls this stage play in the future, he will occasionally think of me.â Beckyâs current behavior was that of a little girl who could not be loved.
Audrey confirmed her previous guess.
Becky liked Eric!
However, Audrey also knew very well that she couldnât plead with Eric for this reason and get him to arrange for Becky to act in a stage play.
Eric was in charge of Romeo and Juliet. Even if Audrey was his sister, she couldnât interfere with Ericâs decision.
At the same time, Audrey knew very well that if she really thought of a way to squeeze Becky into the production team of the stage play, the other students might have a problem with Becky. Furthermore, Eric might have complaints about her because of this.
Even if Eric had never gotten angry with Audrey before, Audrey didnât want to touch Ericâs bottom line.
âIn short, donât doubt yourself,â Audrey said to Becky with a smile. âBecky, you have to know that vou are an outstanding Derson. Donât denv vourself completely just because of some setbacks, okay?â
Becky nodded, red-eyed.
âItâs almost time. Why arenât you back yet?â Suddenly, Ericâs voice came from not far away.
Audrey subconsciously looked up and saw Eric standing at the door of the auditorium, waving at her..
