Suddenly all the lights of the music hall turned off and Everyone became quiet.
Shein: "Hey, The performance has been started. let's talk later."
Priscilla and Esme chuckled a bit and maintained their focus on the stage.
There were two groups divided into teams.
All the orchestra students (From the first team) appeared on the stage and played the classical symphony orchestra.
Everyone was amazed by the performance of the first team but the second team was facing some issues during their performance.
When their (second team's) performance ended, everyone was quiet and disappoint.
but those students were facing some issues with their instruments.
Priscilla was deeply attracted to that team and she stood up and clapped with smiling facial expressions in the entire hall.
Everyone was confused but Esme and Shein smiled at stood up while giving the company to Priscilla.
Priscilla wanted to cheer those students.
Priscilla looked around to sign every single guest to cheer those students. Everyone stood up and clapped.
Those students smiled at each other and bowed their heads toward the audience.
Esme leaned her head towards Priscilla and whispered, "May I ask you the reason for being happy at their performance? I mean they didn't perform well."
Priscilla chuckled and responded, "I think they did their best and we are here to enjoy their performance, so let's enjoy that."
Shein: "This child (Priscilla) is amazing."
Priscilla smiled at Esme and Shein.
Priscilla thought about a moment while looking at the floor.
***Fifteen minutes before starting the performance of the second team***
Priscilla headed the way towards the bathroom but she heard the conversation of two girls.
Those girls were the students of the second team.
A girl with a bangs haircut said, "Our conductor is worried. I think we are going to lose the chance to get the winner's trophy."
Another girl: "I think someone from the first team did something worst with our scripts and instruments."
A girl with bangs said, "Yes I also think so but what should we do now? Our performance is going to get started within ten minutes."
Another girl: "I hope our leader and conductor would not be disappointed."
A girl with bangs, "Let's go. We are getting late."
Priscilla stepped out of the bathroom and thought of something. While putting her arms in a crossing manner.
***That was the only reason for Priscilla to cheer the second team happily***
Priscilla head out of the hall and went to the dean's office with Esme and Shein.
Both Esme and Shein were unaware of Priscilla's actions.
Priscilla entered the dean's office and discussed the whole situation.
The dean called the leaders and conductors of both teams.
They arrived at the dean's office.
The dean looked at the conductor of the first team and raised a suspicion, "I have watched your team's performance before. Your team was the best. So what exactly happened in the last performance?"
The leader was also a student. The leader replied, "Sir, Our instruments were out of order and our conductor's script was changed."
The dean nodded his head in an understanding manner and looked at the conductor and leader of the first team.
The dean: "Does this situation has to have something to do with you?"
The leader of the first team glanced and responded, "What? Dad, Are you blaming us?"
He was the son of the dean.
He was behind all the scenes that happened to the second team.
The dean: "Yes, You made me doubt you. I know my son better than anyone else. You hate losing."
The dean's son was rude, proud, and arrogant. His name was Peter.
Peter: "Wow, you are doubting your son."
The dean: "I don't need to doubt you, even I am sure that you did that."
Peter: "Is that so? Okay, I did it. Now, what would you do?"
The dean stepped forward and slapped his son.
Everyone in the dean's office was shocked and Peter ran out of the office without apologizing.
The dean looked at everyone and bowed his head towards the floor while saying, "I am so sorry for this situation."
The conductor of the first team responded, "I also apologize I didn't know about his plan."
The conductor and the leader requested the dean to permit them to perform again.
The dean permit them and they performed very well and won the first prize.
The dean and the conductor (of the winning team) thanked Priscilla.
The leader of the winning team invited her to dine together.
She didn't want them to get bullied or disgraced by their performance.
When the ceremony ended up, Priscilla joined the winning team for dinner with Sasha and then reached her resort.
She changed her clothes into a night suit and lay on her bed.
Priscilla remembered her memory.
***A memory of her high school***
Three and a half years ago,
She was studying in the orphanage high school. She (Priscilla) was already turned 18.
Priscilla was fed up with living in an orphanage, so she decided to do a part-time job so that she could take care of her living expenses and rent a room or small apartment for herself.
Priscilla started a part-time night job of being a janitor at an internet café.
[Her job was to clean the bathroom and flooring.]
On those days, her final exams started but she didn't study properly. She just wanted to graduate and she cheated on her exams. But she got caught cheating in her final exams and she was expelled from the school.
While seeing that moment, Priscilla fell asleep.
*A new bright day began*
Priscilla woke up.
It was a weekend.
Priscilla had a specified plan for hanging out with her friends (Courtney, Dylan, and Noah).
She freshened up and met her friends in the lobby of the resort.
Priscilla was wearing a jeans shirt. She was binding her hair in the Dutch braid style. She was covering her face with a black-colored face mask.

One girl coughed a little and expressed a fake smile while saying, "Mam, I am your biggest fan."Priscilla chuckled a bit and responded: "Wow! Then I feel great to see my fans smoking and bad-mouthing about me even if they are on the edge of their big mistakes."Another girl replied: "Mam, we didn't know that it was you I mean we are not doing all this to enjoy our lives. Everyone has their personal problems, so do ours. Likewise we poor and homeless people release our tension by smoking."Noah: "Do you think that what you are doing is right for your life I mean it is going to harm yourself not anyone else and what do you think about tension?

Priscilla raised her head to see that person and he was the same boy who was making money by dancing on the street.He clenched burgers from Priscilla's hands and returned them to the lady.Lady: "I have called the police, Stand right there otherwise you'll suffer the worst punishment."The boy bowed towards that lady while saying: "Mam, My apologies. She is my sister. I told her to go to your stall and get two burgers. I'll pay you later but I had no idea that she would perform this activity without your permission. I promise that this will not happen again."That lady: "Oh dear! You look sensible and she is so innocent. You should take these burgers and tell me whenever you are hungry.

I have a meeting with the director and a new agent."Grey: "Agent? Oh! you mean my mom?"Priscilla: "Yes but how did you know that Mrs. Allaire is my new agent?"Grey chuckled a bit and responded, "Ever since my mother met you, she has become your fan and since that day only you are talked about in our house and my father is also excited to meet you."Priscilla: "Oh! wow."Grey: "I think we are talking over the subject so let's get to the point and let me know your response to my offer."Priscilla: "Wait, what offer?"Grey: "I want you to eat breakfast with me and after that, we shall go to buy a beautiful dress for you for today's ceremony."Priscilla (took a deep breath): "I am so sorry Mr. Grey but I have my plans and you don't have to worry about my dressing, it is my problem, not yours and by the way, I already have some beautiful
The salesman stepped out of a coin counter corner and stood in front of a shelf. That shelf was on the right side of the shop and so many Vintage decoration pieces were settled there. He (salesman) delicately picked up a small wooden music box, which was placed at the back. A wooden vintage airplane-shaped sculpture was glued to the lid of that music box. The salesman stepped near to Priscilla and Courtney.He (salesman) picked a dusting mob and clean that music box while saying, "I hope you would like this. This is the most antique delicately handmade piece in my shop. You can gift this amazing piece to the couple. They would love it and they will surely keep this stunning airplane sculptured in a distressed yellow finish with the gray highlights music box on a spot where their eyes will go again and again and they will remember you when they see it."Courtney held that music box in her hands and raised a suspicion, "Indeed! It looks beautiful but I am curious as you said it is a mus

Grey: “Once, I interviewed him as an entertainment reporter, and then coincidently we kept meeting on several occasions, and one day we became informal to each other and became friends.”Dylan: “I have a very small friendship circle and now, he is part of that circle.”They finished dinner and walked on the beach. Priscilla was shivering with the cold weather, and Grey and Dylan noticed that. Grey tried to take off his coat but shortly Dylan draped his coat over her shoulders.Priscilla: “Thank you.”Dylan: “No problem.”Priscilla: “It’s getting late; I think we should head back.”Grey: “You are right, let me drop you.”Dylan: “Grey, your home is situated on the opposite side, let me take her back.”Priscilla: “Dylan is right, otherwise you already did too much for today.”Grey: “Come on.”Priscilla: “Thank you.”Grey: “Okay, call me when you get home.”Dylan: “She is not going with me for the first time, I am not a stranger to her.”Grey: “Okay, bye.”Dylan left with Priscilla, Noah
Courtney: "Okay, see you later."Grey: "See you later."Grey hung up the call. Courtney looked at Priscilla. Dylan and Noah were glancing at Priscilla surprisingly. Priscilla was confused and glaring at Courtney.Dylan: "So you have a date."Priscilla: "Aunt Esme asked me to go on a dinner date with him. It is not a date, it’s just a formal meetup."Courtney: "Aunt? When did she become your aunt?"Noah: "Something was up, I wonder now, this was the matter you were thinking about."Priscilla looked at Dylan and said, "There is nothing between Grey and me."Courtney: "Forget it, what will you wear?"Priscilla: “The one I am currently wearing.”Noah: “Shut up, you have to look pretty. I have heard he is renowned among girls due to his dashing personality.”Dylan: “I am an actor, I have so many fan girls and you are a racer, you also have so many fan girls. There is nothing to do with fame.”Priscilla: “Yes.”Courtney: “Oh Dylan, you don’t know about dating, let’s go, Prissy, I’ll make yo

A man appeared and mumbled: “Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dear Courtney, happy birthday to you. May you have many more, may you have many more, may you have many more, dear, happy birthday to you.”Courtney looked at her father and said, “Daddy.”He was her father, Alexander Joyce. He was a captain of the armed forces of the country.Courtney rashly hugged him and said, “Finally, you are here, I missed you a lot.”Alexander: “I missed you too, my lovely.”They released the hug. Alexander looked at Priscilla, Noah, and Dylan and inquired, “Are they your friends?”Mrs. Joyce: “Yes, they are her friends for so many years.”He met everyone, Courtney cheerfully cut the cake with her parents. Priscilla became emotional and tears popped out of her eyes. She sobbed, Dylan heard her and gazed at her. He held her hand to console her.Later, Priscilla was sitting in the front passenger seat and Dylan was driving back to the resort.Priscilla: “I envy her.”Dylan:
Priscilla: 'Not at all. I am fine. Please let me know the date and location of the fan signing event, I will arrive by myself."Esme: "You seem to be very excited about this, okay we'll let you know the exact date and location. Otherwise, we’ll discuss it later."Priscilla: "Okay, thank you."Priscilla stood up and said, “Seems like the meeting is over, I better leave.”Sasha: “Wait, aren’t you going to have coffee with us.”Priscilla sat back and claimed: “I would love to.”Sasha: “Shall we go outside or order in here.”Elijah: “I think we should go to the new café that just opened last week.”Esme: “I know that place, my husband took me there a few days ago. That is a good place.”Sasha: “Let’s go.”They (Priscilla, Sasha, Esme, Shien, Elijah) all stood up and headed to the café.*Later*They were sitting in the café, a waitress served coffees with two pieces of plain butter croissant, two slices of coffee cake, and three pieces of roasted vegetable crepes.Elijah: Wow! The edibles
Grey whispered in Esme’s ear, “Mom, you are making me embarrassed.”Esme: “It’s okay.”Priscilla furiously gazed at Esme.Grey smiled and loudly claimed, “My mom is joking, don’t be serious.”Grey looked at Priscilla and mumbled, “Miss Rimiley, you look gorgeous but not my type.”Dylan: “Grey, what are you doing here?”Grey: “Hey, my mom’s car got out of order so I gave her a lift here.”Esme and Grey stepped toward Dylan and Sasha.Esme (to Sasha): “She looks like a goddess.”Priscilla’s Fashion designer was also standing with Sasha; her name was Natalia.Natalia: “She would have looked better if she had bridal makeup.”Sasha: “Then why didn’t you do that?”Natalia: “I was going to start her makeup but she prohibited that and said that she is a model, not a real bride. Moreover, she also said that she will be showing off the dress; so I have to give more attention to her dressing instead of her face makeup.”Dylan: “She is Priscilla; she always does whatever she wants.”Grey: “I thin
Dylan: “Don’t laugh, I am serious.”Sasha: “I told her to put on some makeup and dress formally.”Kate: “You look hot.”Priscilla: “We are getting late. Sasha and Kate may go. I am coming with Dylan.”Sasha: “But why?”Dylan: “Don’t you want me to go with Prissy?”Sasha: “No, I didn’t mean it.”Priscilla: “I called Dylan, last night. I asked him to go with me.”Sasha: “Don’t you have a shoot, today?”Dylan: “No, I am free today.”Priscilla looked at her wristwatch and muttered, “Let’s go, we are getting late.”Dylan: “Okay.”Sasha and Kate looked at each other and went out of the resort with Priscilla and Dylan.Priscilla set in the car with Dylan.Priscilla: "See you both at the Shooting location."Sasha: "It's not in the company, I am sending the location to Dylan."Dylan: "Okay."Sasha sent the location to Dylan, he started driving the car. Priscilla disconnected the exact location and said, "Let's head over to the graveyard."Dylan stop the car and inquired, "Why?"Priscilla: "I w
Priscilla chuckled and responded: "Let me get straight to the point, last night you both argued and she left her home furiously, she came to my place and cried a lot. Don’t worry, she is safe and fine but she is depressed and I can't see her like that. I am here to convince you and tell you something that you don’t know but you should know."Mrs. Joyce: "I am listening, what is it?”Priscilla: “Let me share a secret story with you. There was a girl, who always wanted to become an artist. She always enjoyed fulfilling her dreams. She lived with her parents, they were doctors and they loved her so much. But unfortunately, they wanted her to become a successful doctor like them. She fought for her dreams, but they forcefully made her a doctor, she took top positions in every medical exam. On the day of her first surgery, they proudly put their courage on her and she started performing the surgery. As I told you she wasn’t interested in becoming a doctor, guess what happened after that.”
Esmé: "You heard me right, a fan signing event, now you better go back to your place and Sasha will notify you of the next step of our contract."Priscilla: "What step?"Esmé: "We have to capture your pictures for your profile, she will tell you about that."Priscilla took a deep breath.Priscilla's apology video was posted on the official website of the agency.*DPN (news station) entertainment department*{The biggest news channel in the town was Daily Premium News.}Grey was sitting on his desk and using her laptop. Daphne's desk was situated near Grey's desk. Grey received notification of Priscilla's apology video.Priscilla (in the video): "Surely you guys are seeing me in this kind of video message for the first time, maybe you will see this kind of video in the future also. This is not a message video but I want to apologize to all of you for my behavior this morning. Whatever happened this morning was for the first time. I mean, I was suffering from mental stress due to some p
