Be Come A Star Novels & Stories

I turned to him. My forehead furrowed. "Why a star? E, you can also be a moon." "I want to be a star because I want to be with you. I know that many men are drooling over you and they are like stars. If you'll be the moon then I'll be one of those stars beside you, admiring you. " We stared. Deafening silence. My heart pounded. With that force, I think Thyro can already hear that. Fortunately, I could not stand because I knew my knees would soften. Damn. What is happening to me?

I was happy, but even more so because I had helped so many children. “Mr. Smith, would you like to say a few words?” The host’s question was the only one I was asked. I gripped the microphone tightly. “I know I’m just a small star in the vastness of the universe, but there are many like me, stars willing to burn themselves to spread knowledge. “I hope that we will never forget our true purpose and try our best to light up the world.” As thunderous applause filled the hall, I imagined my old teacher smiling down on me. “You did it, Dante. You did well.”

"My guess is he's going through withdrawal on top of getting his ass kicked the last few days." "Yeah well he told me the meetup location. I think it's worth checking out. What do you say?" "I'll be there soon. You, me, Rich and Noah can handle this and fill them in." I ended the call and told Ame we had to head back to her mom now. "But I want to stay with you." She pouted her lips. "Hey I'm sorry Ame I have something to take care of. Once I'm done we can have a movie night when I get back. Okay?"

“And what if I… what if I can’t control it? What if I become the thing I’m hunting?” Mae smiled faintly, not cruel, just realistic. “That’s the risk. But what’s the alternative? Staying human, waiting, hiding… running forever? You survived once. You survived the worst. This… this is just the next step. And you won’t be alone. I’ll be with you. We’ll figure it out.”

Would I be able to pass? I’d always dreamt of working at such a place. It came with prestige, better working conditions and a gorgeous salary. I was tempted. No, not just tempted, I’d become determined to join. First things first. I needed to prepare the outfit and everything else I would need for tomorrow’s interview. Needed to rehearse what I would say and more. ~ The next day ~

"My dad has been sick, Steph, you know that. I have been working my ass off to make ends meet. Mom has been trying to, but the hustle hasn't been easy." I finished my makeup and put on my silver earrings. "So, I decided to give it a shot. I'm qualified after all, so I went for an interview, and ta-da! I have a job now." I lied through my teeth as I got up from the dressing table and reached out to my bag beside the mirror. "That easily? I just feel a pinch of worry for you, Nadi.

After he left, I took a shower and went to bed. I had a dream. In it, I was still a child. I circled my arms around my father's neck. With an affectionate look in his eyes, my father asked me what I wanted to do when I grew up. I told him that I wanted to be like him and my mother, who were doctors that participated in the medical humanitarian assistance to help the sick and injured. My mother smiled and said that I should eat well and grow bigger since I needed to be physically strong to be in their line of work.

“Go away. You’re not him.” He stepped closer and dropped to one knee beside me. He stared into my frightened eyes, his thumb brushing lightly against my cheek. His voice was unusually soft. “There’s no one else here but me. “I know you’re upset about the live stream today. I swear, once Wendy has the baby, I’ll come home and spend more time with you. “Come with me to the family dinner tomorrow. Okay?” His grip on my wrist loosened slightly, like he was waiting for my answer.

Keegan spoke in a relaxed tone, "I prioritized my studies, gaining the ability to control my own life before delving into celebrity fandom. "What about you? At your age, you still rely on your parents for everything. Even if they can afford your star-craze pursuits, what will your position be when you finally share the stage with your idol?
