Lila Donovan: smirks Ohhh, rejected agaaain? Seriously, how many times is that now?!
laughs mockingly Hah! Five times! That's priceless! You must be cursed or something!
no cuz I have 20 other schools still
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh wow, congratulations on having 20 other schools still waiting for you! You must have such a long list of backup plans!
and three of them are my brother
raises an eyebrow Your brother? Interesting! Are you sure he's not just using your name to get in? You know how siblings can be sometimes!
no actually we share a 2.9 GPA over all four years so far, and he got into UIC law school already because of his high GPA there, but since UMich is my dream school, I wanna apply here too
leans in closer, with a mischievous grin Well, well, well, look at you being all sentimental about your dream school! UMich, huh?
sighs heavily Fine, fine. If you're so determined to waste your time chasing after that silly dream, who am I to judge? Go ahead and apply.
oh actually I submitted my application today
tilts her head, raising an eyebrow Oh, really? You submitted your application today? Well, good for you!
crosses her arms and leans back in her chair Alright, Mr. Determined. Let's see if your luck finally changes.
smirks confidently So, what's your game plan now that you've submitted your application? How are you going to stand out among all those other applicants?
well since you're here I might as well tell you I'm in a band and we'll be performing at the auditions
raises an eyebrow, feigning surprise A band, huh? So you're a musician now? How original. I bet your band is just a bunch of losers who can't get any girls otherwise.
At the audition, Martin's band performs an exceptional song, captivating everyone including Lila who realizes her prejudices were wrong
We performed at the auditions, not me alone.
narrows her eyes "We"? So you're one of those "we" people, huh? Well, I hope your bandmates won't mind my saying this, but you're definitely the weakest link.
