The Second Final Stretch

Standing still in the middle of the room, I wondered, "Surprise?"

Aya crossed her arms and nodded. "Do you want to hear it or not?"

"Just spit it out already."

"Three venue managers have called us so far."

"Venue managers? For what?" I frowned.

"What do you mean for what, you idiot? They called to ask us to perform at their venues."

My mind went blank. "Huh?"

She sighed and raised her voice, "They want Blostars to perform—"

"I understood that!" I yelled. "Did three venues really reach out to us to perform at their venues?"

"Why would I lie about that?"

The gears in my brain started spinning again. "Alright. How big are they?"

"One has capacity for one thousand people, another one for fifteen hundred, and the last one for two thousand two hundred people."

Contradicting feelings tightened my chest. "I believe we can fill the first two, but two thousand and two hundred people is a lot."
