Scene - Hidden Voice

After the song they are cheering, "One more!" Marcel yelled.

"I am sorry but I am just covering. Next up is my good friend for her own music." Zhonya said and one of the woman put on her dj and it was her friend. That's when Jerry walked in the cafe and the girls was just watching.

"There you are. Boo you haven't texted me? You completely disappeared. What happened? Are you alright? I was worried sick." Jerry said about to hug her yet stepping back one step.

"What are you doing here?" She asked.

"Of course looking for you." He replied.

"After three days? Oh wait no, one week." She replied crossing her arms. The music stopped and everyone was now looking at them.

"What? One week? No, You are not gone that long." He said.

She chuckled and about to walk away, when he was about to touch her Jonathan put a hand on Jerry's shoulder.

"Excuse me Miss, Is this guys bothering you?" He asked.

"Jon. No, it's fine. He was just leaving." Zhonya said when Jerry was angry.

"So you were cheating on me." Jerry said disbelief.

"Asshole." Jonathan said crossing his arms.

"Since when Zho?" He said playing the victim card.

"Wow, you're playing that role." Zhonya said chuckling in disbelief.

"Nah, Uh, douche bag. YOU are the one cheating. Not my girl Zho here." Lee said when A waitress walked in on them.

"Zho, Don't let your friends terrorize the cafe." The woman who asked Zhonya to cover for her.

"Ah! Grily. It was terrorized when I walked in." Brian said and the other guys laughed.

"Hannah, Please. If you are picking sides you should've picked the right side." Zhonya said and walking away from the scene.

"But your friends started it. Jerry was just worried you were gone." Hannah was now in it with the scene.

Zhonya cough to stop the tears from coming, "You know what, Marcel I think you should get your request. And I've got the best song for it." Zhonya said and walking back to the stage.

"You had it all the day you told me (told me) you want me

I had it all but let you fool me (fool me) completely

Yeah I was so stupid to give you all my attention

'Cause the way you played me exposed your true intentions"

Zhonya walked down and the girls was behind her.

[Chorus:]

"And one day I'll have you beggin' on your knees for me

Yeah one day I'll have you crawlin' like a centipede

You mess with me and mess with her

So I'll make sure you get what you deserve

Yeah one day you'll be beggin' on your knees for me"

Zhonya pointed at herself then Hannah, everyone was now paying attention to the songs and the one performing it. Phones was out, people was making a video about it. Specially the crew.

"So watch your back 'cause you don't know when or where I can get you

I've set the trap and when I'm done then you'll know what I've been through

So oh, Mister Player, do you feel like the man now?

And I bet you're nervous 'cause this song makes you freak out

[Chorus:]

And one day I'll have you beggin' on your knees for me

Yeah one day I'll have you crawlin' like a centipede

You mess with me (yeah) and mess with her (yeah)

So I'll make sure you get what you deserve (yeah)

Yeah one day you'll be beggin' on your knees for me

I know I'm being bitter but I'mma drag you under

'Cause you just don't, don't deserve "Happy ever after"

For what you did to me after you told me you never felt that way

It was only just a game

(you had it all)

[Chorus:]

(And one day)

And one day I'll have you beggin' on your knees for me (beggin' on your knees for me)

Yeah one day I'll have you crawlin' like a centipede (crawlin' like a centipede)

You mess with me (yeah) and mess with her (yeah)

So I'll make sure you get what you deserve (yeah)

Yeah one day you'll be beggin' on your knees for me"

After the song the girls squeals and hugged their friend. When Jerry was now feeling guilt, he went to her not in an aggressive way but a really sad and hurt way.

"So, it's really over? All those years." He said when Zhonya sigh and smiled.

"One more song wouldn't hurt. One last song Jerry?" she went up to the stage and stayed there, "Hello everyone, one last song before I get fired. Oh, and visit Perferming Arts Academy for the showing of Hamilton. Directed by my friend Nicole." She said when she nodded and Jane started to strum the guitar.

"I probably shouldn't say this

But at times I get so scared

When I think about the previous

Relationship we've shared

It was awesome but we lost it

It's not possible for me not to care

And now we're standing in the rain

But nothing's ever gonna change until you hear, my dear

The 7 things I hate about you

The 7 things I hate about you (oh you)

You're vain, your games, you're insecure

You love me, you like her

You make me laugh, you make me cry

I don't know which side to buy

Your friends they're jerks

And when you act like them, just know it hurts

I wanna be with the one I know

And the 7th thing I hate the most that you do

You make me love you

It's awkward and silent

As I wait for you to say

But what I need to hear now

Is your sincere apology

And when you mean it, I'll believe it

If you text it, I'll delete it

Let's be clear

Oh I'm not coming back

You're taking 7 steps here

The 7 things I hate about you (oh you)

You're vain, your games, you're insecure

You love me, you like her

You make me laugh, you make me cry

I don't know which side to buy

Your friends they're jerks

And when you act like them, just know it hurts

I wanna be with the one I know

And the 7th thing I hate the most that you do

You make me love you"

Jerry was now down in the dump, but when she started at him with pity, and when used to looked like when she was still in love with him.

"And compared to all the great things

That would take too long to write

I probably should mention

The 7 that I like

The 7 things I like about you

Your hair, your eyes, your old Levi's

And when we kiss, I'm hypnotized

You make me laugh, you make me cry

But I guess that's both I'll have to buy

Your hand in mine

When we're intertwined everything's alright

I want to be

With the one I know

And the 7th thing I like the most that you do

You make me love you

You do (oh)"

She finished and they both exchanged smiles,of course the girls was not happy about it. "Bitch." Lee said looking at Hannah who was whispering something bad about Zho.

"Really? We wanna hear you sing." Nicole was angry at the woman.

"I don't know what you mean Misses." Hannah was now playing the victim.

"Girls that's enough. She has nothing to do with this." Ivan said trying to be a white knight.

"Thank you." Hannah said with a little flirting.

"Your welcome honey." Ivan replied when Jean was surprised.

"Hey! We're  you just hittin' on my girl?" Jerry snapped. When Zho and the others was surprised.

"Jerry!" Hannah yelled.

"He. He never does that." Zhonya was shattered.

"What? I said nothing." Jerry said.

"Idiot." Hannah whispered again.

"You never get jealous for me. You... So it was just all a game." She was showing no emotion not like the one during the songs.

"What? I don't need to be jealous, you are loyal to me. Plus no guys would try and steal you from me." Jerry said with a nervous Chuckle at the end.

"Oh really?" Rose said crossing her arms.

"Well, This girl is a student in PAA. She'll have better guys than you rag." Jane said protecting their new friend.

"Girls, it's fine. I get it." Zhonya said walking in between the girls and Jerry.

"Zho? Come on let's go back home." Jerry said holding her arm.

"Jerry, Sorry. We're through. You should be with Hannah, she's the one who you truly love. Plus, if you can't be with a woman like me it's fine. You're a boy, I need a man who is willing to wait for me." She said holding his hands and slowly taking it off.

"No, I want you Zho. I won't do anything stupid again." He said holding her hand too.

"Come on now. Who am I to be that person who you should be with? I am just an old traditional girl. Who can't even do anything right." She replied she was smiling, her eyes tells other wise.

"Zho, come on. Don't be like that. Let's just go back to the way it was." Jerry was still trying, but in Zhonya's eyes Jerry was just static.

"Excuse me maybe this would help you." Jonathan went to Jerry putting a hand on his shoulder and punched him so hard he sat on the ground.

"Jonathan, oh my god!" Zhonya said stopping Jonathan.

"Stop it man, haven't you hurt her enough? Go with your hoe and stop bothering her ever again." He said.

"What's your problem?! You are not a part of this!" Jerry yelled.

"I was there you prick! You left her under the rain! She was hurt when she saw you walked out a building with that woman! I was there when her heart was shattered in a million pieces, back together and shattered again! Stop it man! Men like you gives us other men a bad reputation!" Jonathan was trying so hard to stop himself from beating the shit out of him, if only Zho wasn't holding him back.

Everyone was quiet, they are just staring at Jonathan who was actually standing up for this. Despite his reputation at the academy.

"Jonathan." Luke was surprised and worried.

"I am calling the cops." Hannah said about to go to the telephone when Jane dialed someone.

"Yeah, There's a bit of chaos here. People are getting hurt please come quick." Jane said and a few minutes sirens was heard.

"Is there any problem here?" A police man walked in.

"My friend here is being harassed." Jane explained.

"Well he punched this guy." Hannah said when Jonathan smirk.

"It's self defense." He replied.
