Melody's POV
The flight was really long and annoying I didn't believe the second I arrived at my hotel room and crashed on my bed ! After a long night of sleep I woke up once again to the sound of my alarm I looked at the watch and it was 7:00 so I hoped out of bed exited for what will happen today. I called my parents to inform them that I arrived safe and sound and I went and grabbed out of my suitcase a nice dress and some heels to look a little bit more serious I am going to the studio .I was on Hollywood gossip news the old reporter had to quit so I applied at her place! I didn't believe at first that they would accept ME but I mean I think its natural after all I am a reporter/actress/singer/stylist so... Ok back to the point ! Then I entered the bathroom to get showered it felt so good like all the pain from yesterday morning till now is gone in a second ! Then I dried my self up,wore my clothes, put some make-up on and I tied my hair like usual after I finished I heard a knock on the door I went to reply and to my surprise it was a employee from the channel I work with :
- ummm hello...(I said confused by his appearance: a chauffeur hat and a black tux)
- hello mrs Melody please if you are ready to go to the channel the limo is waiting
- ummm sorry but who are you and whats happening ?
- sorry miss I forgot that they didn't tell you yet my name is Richard and I will be your chauffeur as long as you stay in L.A the channel sent me here to take you and after that we will help you choose your new house.
- oh ok now I understand...and choose the house?
- yes thats what you heard you are not going to stay here in this hotel are you ?
- no of course not and thank you for coming come on lets go.
I was really shocked by that I mean my new house and a limo and a chauffeur ! wow celebrity life is great ! He offered me his hand and escorted me to the limo then he opened the door I couldn't help but smile this was truly awesome ! Richard took me on a little tour in L.A before we arrived to the studio .
Once there Richard opened the door for me , I gasped at the view of the studio it was enormous practically made of glass and you can see the channel logo in front plus all the security that are surrounding the building and all those actors and actresses that are coming up and down from the studio....my thoughts were interrupted by Richard who was calling me to come. So I came to him and he said with a grin on his face :
- so this is it its your new second house miss Melody !
- it...it... simply I love it !
- you are going to love it even more when you are going to start working here
- I hope because usually "work" isn't that much fun !
We both giggled as he guided me to the elevator he pressed on one of the buttons I think it was button number 5 !? We arrived to our floor and Richard and I entered a large room were there was a man and a woman sitting in it , as soon as I walked in they both stood up with huge grins on there faces.

I said goodbye as Sarah lead me out of the room and into the hall and said that we need to get on going . We first need to get me introduced to my job and the studio then to my stylist and hair-dresser after that we were going to go to the photo shoot and finally my new house ! So yeah our day is really crowded ! But its worth it plus I am living the dream I mean I didn't think of it this way I am going to be rich famous plus I will have a cute wardrobe that everyone will want and I am going to meet celebrities but most of all do my dream job..... Okay back to reality !
We walked threw some doors and into lots and lots of corridors than we arrived in a large room cameras were everywhere it was awesome ! And then Sarah said :
- so Melody this is it you are going to film the weekdays shows in here to the left of the room is your dressing room . Every morning Richard will give you the papers so you can read them on the road to here . So your job is very simple you just need to tell whats on the papers and make a little bit of jokes just to spice up the mood . Before you start filming you will dress yourself and your hairdresser is going to do your hair and makeup. The show will be filmed at 11 and will be broadcast at 12 so you can see it too but remember like mister Florent said sometimes you will even have to talk about yourself for example if you date any celebrity or be best friends with them , you will have to say that I Melody am dating or I am best friends with this celebrity you understand what I mean ?
- yeah I do but don't worry the whole boyfriend girlfriend thing won't happen I am not here to date so...
- Melody don't forget that sometimes you can't control nether your heart nether your destiny if you've been prepared for something, something else will appear in front of you so don't be surprised . There are different choices in life and you have to take the right choice . Anyway I am here for you , take it like a older smaller sister talk k ?

- your welcome now lets go to the set of your friday show shall we ?
- oh we shall ! ( I said laughing its the first time I feel that I have someone else than my family ,Mia and Rayane to count on )
So we exited the room and once again we took the elevator but this time we went into a tunnel to another part of the studio that I haven't realize was there when Richard and I came ! So there were lots of cameras too but this time it looks like a stage I was lost in my thoughts when I hear someone say hello to me I turned all of a sudden :

- And hello I am Cynthia your hairdresser (another lady said smiling and looked the same age as Sarah and Rosalinda )
