"You have a girlfriend," she says between sighs.
"It doesn't matter," she tells him.
"Alonzo," she says mysteriously.
"Tell me Katherine," she adds.
Astrid's Voice intervenes.
"I'll leave my luggage on the floor right here, in this room it's big, Miss Daniela told me that there is a bed available, it's that I'll stay here, ok," Astrid says.
"Don't worry," Katherine tells him.
"You're welcome," Alonzo tells him.
"Thanks, I'll go downstairs with the others," Astrid adds, retreating.
"Well, cute, what does he say? Tell me?" Alonzo asks.
"I would never date someone like you Alonzo," she tells him.
-Are you sure about that? She asks.
—Yes, and by the way, thanks for the song, now I have everything, the end is beautiful and I already have my song, thanks to you, it is complete. Her, ”she adds.
"I know, we can sing it together if you want, Katherine," she suggests.
"If your girlfriend doesn't mind she'd accept," she adds.
"It's just singing it's not that we really go out together," she adds.
"I know, but since your girlfriend is capable of pulling me by the hair again," Katherine adds.
"I know, but don't worry, she won't notice," she tells him.
Brenda's voice intervenes.
"I don't realize it?" Intrigued question Brenda.
Katherine and Alonzo freak out.
Miss Daniela's voice intervenes.
—Brenda We still have to talk and I want to make it clear! Daniela exclaims with annoyance.
-That? She asks.
"Don't let something insignificant end your life," Daniela adds, grabbing her arm and her eyes go to Katherine and Alonzo.
"You guys come down, dinner will be served, move on right now," she tells them while they wait for them to go down the stairs and she takes Brenda to another room.
When the two are alone, Daniela feels upset.
-What's the matter? –Asks Brenda frowning.
—Look, Brenda, we had not agreed that in front of people we do not know each other, and you calling me aunt, what is that, outside of them I am not your aunt, let it be clear Brenda.
"Anyway, she's fine, and I can ask Why did you have that photo? I've never seen it, why is it there on the table?" Brenda asks.
"I don't know what you're talking about and I don't know anything about that photo, don't be so questioning, I can put the photo I feel like hoarse," Daniela added nervously.
—That photo I saw is very peculiar aunt, you put it there because it's special, it must be strange, there is aunt I don't know what else to say, by the way, that woman in the photo is too young. Who was she? She, ”she asks curiously.
"That's none of your business, now come down to eat in the room," adds Daniela.
Brenda comes down the stairs while Miss Doris intervenes.
"Miss Daniela, everything is ready," she adds.
Miss Daniela opens the box where she contains photos with regret, she observes them and does not stop seeing some photos and the babies they include.
"I'm sorry about the babies," Doris adds.
"That didn't have to happen, I'm very sad, the babies were my happiness, I don't know how they could leave," she adds.
"Miss Daniela, my condolences for everything, her food is getting cold," she adds.
"Ok," Daniela adds, walking down the steps with Dorian.
She heads into the living room and everyone is staring at her.
"You can get her name tag along with her name after dinner," Daniela adds.
"Thank you," they all reply.
Miss Daniela takes a seat, and everyone has dinner, minutes later the staff removes the dishes and in order they take the badge that is in a basket, each one looks for her name and retires to the room.
"Arthur, by God, come here," Brenda adds.
"What's wrong, don't you see I'm writing one of my new songs," Arturo adds, frowning.
"If you're doing it without me, that makes me angry, I also want to help you and you don't let yourself be helped, my ideas are more beautiful than yours," he adds, frowning.
"You can calm down, they're stressing me out," Arturo adds annoyed.
"Stop peeling," Tania adds.
"You could do the song without screaming, apart I don't understand why you bother, you two, it's just a song that if you want to write it together you do it, that's it," Katherine adds.
"Of course we'll do that, Brenda," Arturo replies.
"If you give me the page, I'll write down some ideas. It's our song now, so you have to sing it with me," he adds, frowning.
"Hay Brenda ok just don't take your nails out," Arturo adds.
"It has nothing to do with that, don't make me angry, she worries me so many things, by the way, Katherine would lend me your violin," Brenda adds with intrigue and a cynical smile.
"Yes of course I'll help you with that since you need it," Katherine adds, oblivious to the trap that Brenda will set for her.
"You stress me out," Arthur says through clenched teeth.
"I'm going to sleep I'm very tired, good night everyone, I hope you don't kill yourself while you sleep," he says sarcastically.
The other girls and boys say good night to start to sleep, the only ones who stay awake are Arturo and Brenda who quietly solve the song, without making the slightest noise so that Miss Daniela does not notice anything .
All the week all the boys and girls were preparing by filling out applications for their entrance to the University as soon as possible each one chose their career, some are nineteen years old and others eighteen years old, Katherine and Brenda had used the same shared violin, since Brenda didn't have a personal violin.
One day before the happy test, everyone received an email by cell phone saying that the test was today at 7:00 in the morning, so they had to be at that time without fail, everyone could see the face of enthusiasm, Katherine was ready, everyone was ready, Brenda had already used Katherine's violin one day before the test, Katherine put all her trust that Brenda would take care of him when he took the test.
The day of the test arrives, everyone got up very early in the mansion to be at the Universiade at half past six and wait to take the test.
Katherine's eyes did not stop observing the jury evidence room in detail and with her nerves on top of her all the rehearsal was worth it.
Katherine was the last contestant, the jury rules were clear, they had to convey feelings with the lyrics of the song using the violin as its instrument.
Everyone gave the test, everything is fine, the penultimate to pass was Brenda using Katherine's violin, happy and showing off at all costs.
When Brenda finished her presentation, she went to a door covertly without anyone noticing anything, she got there and with a scissors that was on the desk, it occurred to her to scissor all the violin strings, ruining it, and she did not give her a chance , and left the violin lying down, she left the door as if nothing had happened and she saw that Katherine was still talking with Arturo, and her blood was consumed from how angry she was, they had not yet called Katherine by microphone.
Brenda went out the back door and did not see anyone, everything was alone, and she went walking since she had a plan in mind to say that a man took her, and as she is clever she knows some places of refuge and put together the drama of that she was kidnapped by men to victimize herself.
While Katherine was oblivious to Brenda's malevolent plan.
The jury calls Katherine to give the test, she sits on stage nervously waiting for Brenda to appear and give her her violin, but she did not pass that as they had agreed.
"Start testing now Miss Katherine," she adds.
Arturo, seeing that Brenda did not appear with the violin, had no choice but to give his violin to Katherine.
Arturo walks gives him the violin.
"I'm waiting for the signal, do you want to continue the process?" The jury asks.
"Excuse me, I don't know what my violin did, but I already have a new one that I gave to my friend to test," says Katherine nervously.
"Good luck," Arturo whispers in Katherine's ear.
While another young man passes the microphone to Katherine and she is ready to debut her song and the violin instrument that would accompany him in the rest of the song.
All the jurors are watching Katherine, her voice dazzles and transmits feelings that they are looking for, the stirrup of the lyrics is missing and Alonzo gets closer to her and begins to sing the part of the song that he composed for her, and their voices join , which makes all the jurors stand up from their chairs and clap their hands.
They both end up transmitting a lot of feelings.
"We have never seen a presentation like this before. We have made a decision, Miss Katherine," says one of the jurors.
Katherine is nervous but surprised by the applause and Alonzo grabs Katherine's hand and Tania gets jealous when she sees that.
The jury stares at them at that moment with so much mystery.
