"Since you said that Cillian Redford is handsome, does it mean that you're attracted to him? Is it possible for you to fall in love with him, your Highness?" Amaia Producer asked her a follow-up question. Princess Astra blushed again like a steamed crab after hearing her lady-in-waiting's question. "Oh, I think it's too early for you to ask me that. But one thing is for sure... Cillian is a good person." she firmly stated. "Well, you're right. We'll see what happens next. But for now, you need to take a rest because you had a very hectic and tiring day today." Amaia smilingly suggested. Princess Astra nodded in agreement. Many things have happened to her today, and she is feeling so exhausted. She will take a good rest tonight, so that she can regain her energy... ==================== Cillian and Astra met again after a few days. They are now at the Marquis Garden, which is one of the famous gardens in the capital city of South Marquina. They are strolling the garden, while the
A few moments later.After their tea time, Cillian suggested Princess to do a tour around the Begonia House grounds. They can go around the vast area while riding a horse.Since Astra has been riding a horse everseince she was a little child, Cillian requested the Presidential staff to give her a horse as well. And now, the two engaged couple are touring around the area, while riding in their own horses."I'm going to bring you to my favorite place. I'm absolutely sure you're going to like it as well." Cillian spoke again."Alright... But where are we going?" Princess Astra curiously asks him."Let's just say we're going to paradise." Cillian replied, in a mysterious tone."Paradise, huh?' Astra secretly thought, as she is looking forward to their next date location...After riding their horses for twenty minutes, Cillian lets out a smile, and he calls for Astra's attention."Welcome to my most favorite place in the whole world..." Cillian smilingly welcomes the princess."This is lik
Princess Astra slowly opened her eyes. She realized that it was already morning, and she woke up really late because she finished reading a very interesting book and it was already wee hours in the morning when she finished the whole book.Mr. and Mrs. Redford invited her to stay at the Begonia House for the night. Of course, she and Cillian were given separate rooms, and that's what she wanted as well...She decided to get up from her bed, so that she can start her morning by having a hot cup of coffee.She is also planning to look for Cillian, as they agreed to have breakfast together everyday.After washing her face, brushing her teeth and changing into presentable clothes, she is now slowly making her way downstairs while feeling so excited and happy...=================================After a few minutes.Astra is now walking around the Begonia House while searching for Cillian, but she stops in a halt when he saw him talking to a certain woman.She quickly hid herself at a near
Few days have passed.Tonight is the Welcome Party for Alena, which is going to be held at her very own mansion."Are you alright, Astra?" Cillian suddenly asked Princess Astra, as they are making their way to the party venue. He noticed that Astra is looking so anxious and apprehensive while they are driving their way to the Welcome Party."I'm fine, Cillian. This is my first time going to a grand party, outside of my kingdom, so I'm a little bit nervous." Astra relayed."Look, everything's going to be okay. I'll never let go of your hand and I'll always be by your side throughout the party." Cillian made a promise to Astra."Thank you, Cillian. Saying those things mean a lot to me." Astra said, while looking grateful.Both of them continued walking, hand in hand and Astra feels comfortable with him and she feels like nothing can go wrong as long as she is with Cillian."Oh, hello there! I'm so glad to see you here at my Welcome Party, Cillian.... And Princess Astra..." Alena greeted
Few hours have passed.After talking and saying goodbye to Alena's parents, Cillian decided to look for Princess Astra so that they can go back home and take a rest.He is getting worried because he can't find Astra, and he is wondering what could've happened to her.He was about to go to the Women's Comfort Room hoping to find her there, but he suddenly stops when he heard a familiar voice nearby."I can handle myself, sir. I can still drink! Please get me another glass of cocktail!" he heard Astra's voice from the distance.He quickly made his way towards the garden, where Astra's voice is coming from.He was surprised to see her at the poolside with the male guest they previously encountered at the dinner table. He saw Astra trying to walk in a drunken manner, while the stranger is trying to assist her.Cillian didn't like how close they are, and their closeness is making him feel jealous. He quickly marches their way towards them."Excuse me, but what happened to my fiancée?" he d
Cillian and Princess Astra arrived home safely. He is currently laying Astra in her bed. Once he made sure that she's comfortable enough, he decided to say goodnight to her."Goodnight, Astra. I'll see you again tomorrow." he gently whispers, while staring at the sleeping princess.He was about to get up and leave, but he was taken by surprise when Astra suddenly grabbed his hand."Please don't leave me alone." Astra was groaning in her sleep.Cillian worriedly stares at her, observing her if she is having a nightmare. He clasped her hand firmly, making her feel that nothing's going to harm her, she's not alone and everything will be okay...At the same time, he is having this urge to kiss those red and kissable lips of hers!"Dear heavens, please help me from this temptation." Cillian whispered, trying his best to control himself.Cillian's heart skipped a beat when he saw a tear flowing from Astra's eyes and unto her cheek. And with that, Cillian can't fight what he's feeling anymor
After a few days...Cillian and Princess Astra are now busy doing preparations for their upcoming wedding...The couple are now talking to a Wedding Planner, who's been very nice, kind and accommodating to them. Astra's so excited to share her vision for the wedding."What theme do you like for the wedding, Astra?" Cillian suddenly asked her."I want to have a beach wedding. I also want to go with the wedding ceremony during the sunset. Astra dreamily stated."Sounds like a good plan." Cillian nodded in agreement."But if you want something else, it's alright with me." Princess Astra said, because she thought that Cillian might be thinking of another plan for their wedding..."Don't worry about me, Astra. I know that having a wedding is one of the most important milestone in a woman's life. I think the beach wedding sounds awesome, too." Cillian responded, in a sincere manner."Thank you very much, Cillian." Astra happily replied.She was touched by Cillian's statement about the weddi
A few minutes later, Cillian helped Princess Astra to ride at one of the horses. The whole team rented the whole place for today's shoot, so they are the only ones inside the amusement park... The carousel began to rotate. "Please look at each other's eyes..." the photographer ordered them again. The cameras starts rolling as the carousel continues to rotate. Astra looked at Cillian straight in the eyes. His big, warm eyes are staring back at him, and her heart starts beating like crazy! "Okay, lovebirds! Get closer!" the photographer instructed. At the same time, Cillian was thinking of doing something. But he must first get the perfect timing to execute his plan... When Astra's horse came down a bit, he wasted no time... He moved towards his bride and without any warning, he kissed her sweet and soft lips... Meanwhile, Astra felt like everything around her stopped moving, as soon as Cillian started kissing her. She feels like she's going to have a heart attack because
Jason nodded in return, thinking that Clarissa still has the right to know what happened to Edward and Victoria. "Don't worry too much about them.As far as I know,Edward is now the official choreographer in the entertainment industry ,and Victoria is now a dance instructor at a prestigious dance school.But let's not waste anymore time, Clarissa. This time let's talk about us." Jason abruptly changes the subject. Clarissa bit her lip, while looking at Jason. He is right.They need to talk about them, and put a closure between them so that they can finally move on with their lives... "You're right. We need to talk about the two of us. Tell me right now that you have someone special, or you're engaged, or if you're already married." Clarissa felt the pain in her heart after saying all of those things. Jason's brows met in a frown while looking at Clarissa with a puzzled expression on his face
Back at the hotel..."I can't believe he ignored me just like that! And it actually hurts like hell!" Clarissa continued on crying like a banshee while drinking wine with Jessica."I can totally understand your feelings, Clarissa. You know what, you can cry and drink all you want for tonight but starting tomorrow, you'll start moving on with your life, okay?" said Jessica."That's easier said than done, Jess! You just don't have any idea how I kept him in my heart for the passed years! Oh, maybe I'll die loving him!" Clarissa continues to wail her heart out.Eventhough Clarissa tried to stay professional throughout the show, but she hurting deep inside.Jason really changed, and he became like a stone... With no emotions.Jason didn't bother to talk to her from the beginning until the end of the show. Jessica was about to say something but she wasn't able to do
Clarissa is currently doing the new choreography for her job. She was contracted by a famous male pop singer to choreograph dance moves for the artist's latest music video."Clarissa, we got some mails!" her Manager, Jessica suddenly appeared at the practice room. She laid the letters on the nearby table.Thanks, Jessie." Clarissa thanked her.She decided to take a break for a few minutes because she has been dancing for three hours. She looked at the letters one by one.Some of them are from her fans, and some of them are from her students and her co-workers.One particular letter suddenly caught her attention.It was sent from Tokyo, Japan. She quickly opened the letter to read it."Clarissa, are you alright?" Jessica asked her.Clarissa was in utter shock after she read the letter. She wasn't able to speak for a few minutes. But once she recovers from her
Two Years Later.New York, New York.Clarissa almost jumped out from her seat when she felt something cold from her cheeks. She quickly glances back, and she rolled her eyes heavenward when she saw Aiden, her classmate at the New York Dance School chuckling, while holding cold cans of soda."Aiden, don't scare me like that! You almost gave me a heart attack!" she smilingly reprimanded him."Sorry about that, sweetheart." Aiden apologized, while still chuckling."That was really funny to you, huh?" Clarissa sarcastically spat at him."Alright, peace. Take this as my peace offering." Aiden tries to console her, as he gives her one can of soda."Thanks." Clarissa thanked him.She popped open the soda can and drank the refreshing drink. Afterwards, she turned her attention back to Aiden."By the way, what are you doing here?" she curiously asks him.
Clarissa is lying on her bed while staring at the ticket for NO Border's concert tomorrow. Part of her brain is telling her not to go so that she can forget about Jason, but her heart is telling her a different thing. Her heart is telling her to go to the concert, and see Jason one last time.She wearily sighed. Looks like she won't be able to sleep tonight...======================The night of the concert came.Clarissa is sitting in one of the many chairs inside the Grand Dome. She's happy to see that the place is packed with people, and she is so proud for NO Borders.She's 100% sure that the concert will be successful.Clarissa snaps out from her reverie when when the lights suddenly went out, and the concert is about to start.After a few seconds all of the members of NO Borders appeared onstage...Her heart is overwhelmed with so much e
Jason eyes immediately searched for Clarissa as soon as he steps onstage. He anxiously looks for her and he couldn't see her from the crowd of dancers..."Alright, guys! Gather up! I have a very important and serious announcement to make." their choreographer suddenly called for their attention.As soon as everyone has gathered, Jun spoke again."As you all know, the NO Borders' concert will start tomorrow, and this will be our last rehearsals. For the passed few days we had a problem and because of that our Big Boss decided to --- permanently remove ai Clarissa as one of the back-up dancers.That's why we decided that for Jason's partner for his solo performance, she will be replaced by Victoria." he pronounced.Everyone was obviously shocked after they heard the announcement."Is it because of the scandal?" Edward bravely asked Jun.Somehow, he was still worried about Clarissa.
Victoria wasn't able to answer because she was taken back by Jason's calm demeanor."Everyone, please calm down. For the meantime we need to concentrate on the rehearsals first. We only have a week before the concert starts, that's why we can't afford to waste anymore time." Nick calmed everyone down."Nick is right. That's why I want you all to do series of warm ups and afterwards, we'll start with the rehearsals, okay?" their choreographer announced as well.All of them didn't have a choice but to follow their choreographer's orders.Meanwhile, Clarissa secretly watches Jason. It was obvious on his face that she is affected by the scandal that appeared on the newspaper, and she feels like it's all her fault...She decided to talk to Jason later and apologize to him...=========================Clarissa is standing by the door, which was NO Borders' private room.

At a certain fastfood restaurant..."I'm really going into a monster-mode right now! Even if Edward doesn't say anything, he still cares about that bitch!" Victoria angrily muttered, as she slams her fists on the table.The other customers at the restaurant stared at her in surprise, but she doesn't give a damn about them. She is now raging in anger because she knows that her boyfriend still cares for his ex-girlfriend. She needs to do something that will destroy Clarissa!"---I just need to dig up some dirt or scandal to any members of the NO Borders, and I know our magazine will sell like hotcakes, again... I'm just waiting for a big break."Victoria snaps out from her reverie when she heard the old man's voice, who was sitting at the nearby table. He was talking to someone over the phone. She decided to listen to the old man."----I've been monitoring them for a month, and I followed th
Every female dancer starts to get excited after they heard Jun's announcement.Being able to be picked is a huge advantage and they can have an exposure...On the one hand, Clarissa is not too hopeful because it is obvious that Victoria will be chosen. As a professional dancer, she will not harbor any resentment towards Victoria if ever she was picked. She can clearly admit that she is the best dancer in their group.Meanwhile, Victoria gave out a big smile to everyone because she's absolutely sure that she will be personally picked by their choreographer."And now, I'm going to formally announce the dancer who will dance with Jason for his solo performance... We decided to pick Clarissa this time, and it was an unanimous decision." Jun suddenly announced.Clarissa held her breath in shock after they called her name. She can't believe that she was chosen! It was obvious that everyone is expecti
