CHAPTER ONE.
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.
