Life Of Young Starlets

Episode 13
Scene 1: Starr's flat
"Oh! Hello Starr! Welcome home!" Blare tried to be friendly with Starr but she didn't answer instead just walked off to her room, slamming the door behind her. Pur-lease! Like her pretends will make me like her! Go to hell with all her fake attitudes! Starr thought to herself. She let herself drop on her bed and took out a box under her bed. Its an old box that she has since the death of her mother. She took out a photo of her mother standing right next to her with a big smile on both of their faces. Starr was the happiest person alive that time. Now, she has this hollow and sorrowful feelings in the corner of her heart that she can never erase away, even when she tries. She turned the box over and everything that were in it, fell on her bed. The heart shape necklace that her mum gave her for her 5th birthday, a drawing of her and her parents that she drew with crayons.The most precious thing to her that was in the box was, a china doll that her parents bought for her from Beijing. She knows it had cost her parents a fortune and she loves it so-o-o much that she is still keeping it. Its was speacially for me from mum and dad... Starr wiped the tears that were flowing down her cheeks. She quickly put the things away in the box as her dad came in after knocking for few times. She didn't have time to hide the box. Damn! She sweared to herself. "Hey Starr!" TK stared at Starr and then frowned. "Have you been crying?" he asked then everything makes sense to him after he saw the box. His frowned changed to a concern. "Oh! Honey, are you okay?" he asked, sitting down next to Starr and putting his arm around her. Starr nodded but tears kept on pouring down. She couldn't stop them from doing so. "You miss your mum, don't you? Starr, honey, I miss her too but life need to go on, sweetie. We can't just kept on crying and let our feelings rule us. You would need to learn to accept Blare like how she learned to accept you and love you. She loves you, Starr! So, I hope you could do the same. She is even willing to do anything to make you happy," TK explained. "Oh yeah? She's willing to do anything to make me happy? Why don't she get out of our life and not replace mum? Then, I will be happy!" Starr screamed like a little girl. She's been keeping all her problems to herself lately. So, she is miserable and always in a bad mood. TK hand went flying and hit Starr's face. Starr said nothing but kept on crying. "How dare you say that! Blare is part of our lives too, now! You better respect my decisions and support me, Starr!" TK cools down and continued, " I need your support," he whispered. Silence filled the room. Starr looked towards her bedroom door as TK left the room without a word. How can I support you dad, when I don't even want to be here. In this world. I want to be where mum is. Heaven! Heaven! Heaven! She thought to herself.Starr wiped her tears again and put the box away where she'd found it. She took out a sheet full of music notes, next. Grabbed her guitar, and started playing the song she created herself, on the paper. It was specially for her mum and will always be...
Scene 2: Eddie's house garage
The band started practising with extra energy. They are having this small concert at this cafe next week. "This song will sound better with the drum but stupid! You can't even convince her properly!" Courtney scolded Brad as they stopped to take a break. "Shut up! I tried, OK? Besides, we can't carry on forcing her," he answered. "We are not forcing! We are convincing!" Courtney replied, thinking that was a smart answer. Well, Brad is smarter. "Same thing! When you convince, it usually take you one time to do so and if the person is still not convinced, you should just give one more try then, stop but we never stop, do we?" He has brain, huh? The others couldn't answer to that so, Eddie braven up and said something. "Well, we should keep on forcing her then! We need her for the 'Battle of The Band' or else, we're never going to get that precious trophy." The others exchanged glances except for Brad, who just stared at his guitar. "We all agree to keep on forcing Heather. How about you, dude?" Courtney asked. "I need to agree anyway, because the trophy has been what we always wanted from the start of the year," Brad made the others smile big. "Thanks, dude! You are the best!" the others said. "I know!" Brad boasted and they laughed.
Scene 3: Heather's house. Dinner time
"Wow! The foods look damn delicious!" Heather said to Catherine, not realizing that her mum was at the dining table too. "Mind your words, honey!" she scolded. "Opps! Sorry!" Heather and Catherine giggled. They sat down around the table and started eating. Lamb stew and mashed potato. My favourite! Heather thought to herself. "So, girls! How's school?" Mrs. Enzyl asked. Heather just replied, "School is good!" Catherine is the one who is always telling them about her school and her friends. So, she blabbed all the way through dinner. How rude! Can she finish her dinner first, then show off about how she got A+ for Maths, Art and History? Heather made a face as she thought about it in her head. Her mum doesn't seem to mind though. After dinner, Heather just sat in the living room with Catherine and Mrs.Enzyl. They were watching T.V when the house telephone rang, startling them. Catherine ran to pick it up then covered the bottom of the telephone and turned to Heather. "It's Eddie. He wants to talk to you", she whispered. She knows how Heather isn't close with him anymore so, she just wants to know if Heather would like to talk to him or not. "Damn! Tell him I'm sleeping!" Heather whispered back. "Sis! It's only 8. Who sleeps at 8?" Catherine raised her eyebrows. "Oh right! Umm, tell him I'm out with mum and you are staying at home. Alone! Yeah! Tell him that!". Mum, next to her, laughed and said, "More like lie to him that...". Heather blushed. Her mum knows about this as well. So, Catherine told what Heather had asked her to. "Oh! OK then. I will just call her again tomorrow," Eddie answered back. "OK! Bye! Night!" Catherine said and hung up.
