I stand off to one side, alone, my violin cradled in my arms. The rest of
the orchestra is gathered about, waiting for our cue to take to the stage.
Glancing down, I find the toe of my high heel tapping against the hardwood
floor and immediately cease the nervous tick.
Where is she?
We’re mere minutes away from entering the stage, but Eleanor, our
concertmistress, still isn’t here. It’s unlike her not to be here on time, and as
our musical director, Mr. Edrington, says, if you’re not early, you’re late.
Eleanor is always early; so, where is she?
“Nora,” someone whispers behind me, and I turn to find our general
manager, Charlotte, sidling up beside me in the dark.
“Yes?”
“I just got a call. Eleanor can’t make it,” she whispers.
My heart stops for two reasons: something bad must’ve happened for
Eleanor not to be here, and this means I’ll have to take her place as the
concertmistress.
Oh my god.
“Is everything okay?” I ask.
“Her son’s sick. They’re taking him to Children’s. Probably just that flu
that’s going around.” She shakes her head, and her brow creases in
annoyance. “We need you to take her spot. Do you know the solo?”
“Um . . .” My hundreds of hours of practice flash through my mind.
Honestly, I could play the solo in my sleep while balancing on one foot, but
for some reason, all that comes out of my mouth is a wavering, “Y-yeah, I
can play it.”
