The cheers- The excitement - The steps -The lights- All in one place. There was a sudden burst of excitement as I walked to the stage. My movement was So rhythmic and dramatic-one could think l practiced it.l stopped in the middle of the stage, facing the crowds, l closed my eyes for a brief moment,l loved that sound, the sound of people appreciating me,l wanted to enjoy it for a moment. The stage is set in a vibrant backdrop, flashing lights and dynamic sound system. All of a sudden the spotlight shines on me, reflecting my beauty. Guys called me a pagan queen and girls refers to me as a goddess. Of course they are not wrong, I'm tall, beautiful and slender, with an air that makes people feel my presence. I have an oval face with a little scar on my left cheek making me look mysterious-every scar has a story. But what brought out the mysterious sense was my eyes-my wide eyes and dark eyeballs brought out the sense of danger and mystery. My hair is dark, matching my skin colour and short, only reaching my chin . I'm blessed with a good body shape making me goddamn attractive.I am every ladies model and every guys dreams. My dress brought out a cute look,I'm dressed in a leather silver jacket, black crop top and a silver flay sirt .Eyes wide open, I stared at the crowd for a brief moment, taking time to observe my surrounding and mostly- my fans, I smiled a little after observing the crowds. A dark background tune begin to play,giving me an entry to start my contemporary moves,after a while I began to sing " I got plenty secret, It's hidden in my heart, Gonna dance it out Until my heart clear, I wanna be free, No more secret, So please take me home...” still singing the backup dancers enters wearing matching outfit and echoing my dance steps.“so take me home” I ended my song in a high pitch tune rounding up my performance. There was loud screams and Excitement coming from the crowds.Walkingout of the stage, I felt good, my performance was definitely Amazing or... “Hannah”Zoe, a middle aged woman called snapping me out of my thought.I smiled immediately I sighted Zoe-forcefully “You were amazing out there” Zoe said happily as if she was the one who did the performance. " What a leech” I thought to myself. “ Thanks,being amazing is something I must be” I replied toZoe.Zoe chuckled “Celebrity life,right? You are so lucky,you have a lot of fans that appreciate you. I envy you. “ Fans?”I scoffed “ Fans are just selfish people,they only love you if you reach their expectation-if you don't, they leave you without looking back. They only appreciate you if you entertain them, they are my burden...” I kept quiet for a brief moment, I wanted to let it ring in Zoe's head "They stress me out so much but Istill need them...so do you still envy me”I said in a frustration tone. Zoe smiled “ Yes, I'll still wish to be in your shoes-no matter what.” “ I heard you are likely to be the heir of your dad's company..." “ Are you always this nosy?” I asked trying not to be rude. Zoe heard the tone in my voice and knew it was atone telling her to shut-the-f**k-up. " I'm sorry ,I must have crossed the line” Zoe replied sheepishly,I decided to remove the forced smile on my face " It's not..." I stopped immediately I sighted Jacob. He looked stunning,standing in the middle of the dancefloor,sipping-sexily-a glass of wine.He isn't the definition of beauty, buthe is a man who could fit in any suit. He is tall and muscular,someone like him will definitely have an amazing, well structured-packs. He isn't all that handsome but he is attractive. I stopped my observation when my eyes met with Jacob's. I hated all this eye contact.I hated the uncomfortable chills it gives me.I don't like it. And I will never like it.Jacob smiled at me and I returned it to him- a little. Zoe saw the smile on my face,she knew it wasn't for her “ Thank God" I thought to myself..She got her answer when she saw Jacob “ Gosh..." she said facing me " People like him are just distraction, don't mind them” Zoe advised me. Zoe made a mistake saying that. “It's my life, isn't it? People who are nosy, just get on my nerve” I said rudely. “ Excuse me” I said with a forced smile and walked away, walking closer to Jacob. “ That b***h, I don’t even know why I pretended to like her” Zoe said angrily. I stopped when I was only one step away from Jacob. “Hey” Jacob said smirking “you are stunning”. He was flirting and I wanted to play along. I chuckled, “ you sure know how to flatter a girl”. Jacob smiled“ I’m glad I could flatter you” he said whimsically You sure did” I said smiling. I sighed “ so will you be attending the Halloween party?” I asked . He looked at me “Maybe” he replied “do you want me to come?” he asked teasing me. He was trying to make me laugh but it wasn’t funny. “Like I care” I said dryly “ but I will be there” I said after a brief silence. Jacob kept quiet for a moment. Making me uneasy- a little “do you want to go out sometime?” he asked. “no” I said dryly . Jacob isn’t the type I want to have a thing with. He is the kinda guy I just want to keep around. You know. Just in case. “ouch, your words are painful but nice to hear…” he said ,acting like my words had a negative impact on him “ see you in school” he said , with a half smirk. Half smile. Walking away. I stared at Jacob as he walked away “people like him are not distraction. They can only be a friend or foe, and to me Jacob is a chapter…I don’t understand. Is he a friend-or foe?" I thought to myself.
