The premier and news

"Over here, over here!"

"There is our sweetheart, Allison."

"Oh, you're perfect!"

It wasn't the first time Meira was on one of the film premiers of Allisons films. The normal chatter could be heard between the paparazzi, with their big cameras, microphones and expensive dresses. Everyone asking for Allisons attention or just one look in their camera. But the constant yelling started to annoy her. But she has herself under control and her adoptive mother, Sophie Cashers, was standing just meters away from her, so she shouldn't cause any drama right now, just because of the loud noises. Even less when you think about how much she had to argue with her, to be allowed to go at all. So sure thing is, that she won't ask to go home.

She really learned over the last years in the Cashers household, how kids behave and how it is to live like one. In the present she doesn't even need to try to act, she kind of just accepted the role as a teenage daughter. Sadly her new "Mom" isn't much home because of her new boyfriend, soon-be-fiancé, who doesn't like her. But on the bright side it was her chance to spend more time with Allison. Sometimes she think of her more like a mom than her adoptive one. Yet she sees her more like a best friend, which seems a bit of because of the physical age difference. Only that her mental age is much higher than Allisons.

Her thoughts get cut short when she shifts her whole Attention to Allison. The woman in the middle of Attention this evening. Which is understandable, if you remember that she is playing the main role in the film series "Love on Loan", which premier they are on right now. And even if Allison wouldn't have been the main actress today, she would have been the most eye catching one. The only word that can in any way describe her look is gorgeous! With the long, red, body-hugging dress which definitely complements her curves and her curly mass of hair, but still good looking, she just stands out of the mass.

Meira and Sophie and all the other coworkers or security are wearing elegant black suits. But her attention got pulled away once again when she noticed the change of Sophies demeanor. Her hand moves to her ear and she silently nods. Suddenly the shouts of the crowd got louder once again and their content is completely confusing her.

"Allison have you heard the news?"

"When was the last time you saw your father?"

"Have you heard from your brothers?"

And more in this way.

She looks confused to Sophie, as Allisons main assistant she should know what's up. And she can see the shocked expression planted on her face. In the moment she starts to walk over Sophie suddenly starts speed walking onto the middle of the red carpet, directly behind Allison. From where she stands she can barely hear anything they say to each other. But she tried to anyways. She can only make out sing words, anyways she got the main message: Allison Hargreeves is dead.

The man, who the celebrity barely talked about at all and if mostly about bad things. How he made her suffer in her early childhood. How he used them, her and her six siblings, for his own fame. How she never got treated with love from his side. How he was the strictest person she has ever known in her life. In the last fact Meira can clearly disagree, because there are far more worse people that she has known in her past. But that's not the point.

The moment the information drawn the actress, her face falls a bit, but more than that nothing in her physical appearance. She just strides from the red carpet, alongside her first assistant. Meira hurries after them, with the luck of Jupiter, she gets to them without drawing much attention to herself.

"Allison? What happened?" She has to play innocent. They can't suspect anything, she doesn't want them to know the truth. Who knows what would happen if they do?

"Meira my Darling! I'm ok...no need to worry,"Allison smiles sadly at her.

"And even if, it's not our business Darling!," her mom replies sharply. Meira quickly nods, pretending not to know what happened to Mr Hargreeves. "It's ok Sophie,"the star calms her assistant, scared for another argument between the mother-daughter duo. They nowadays happen really often because of Sophie's new love interest. She often hears from Meira how bad the man is, but she won't interfere in her friends love life. The tension between the two females grew and get unbearable, so Allison thought about, how to stop the growing tension in the air. Maybe they need a pause from each other? On her own side she has problems as well, so she would be able to help the two much. But how about-

"Sophie?", the celebrity cuts in, the named woman breaking away from the stare-test:"Yes?" "What do you think about me taking Meira with me to the funeral?So you and Kai could have some time alone and Meira could see the place where i grew up?" she suggested to the adoptive mother. When Sophie considers the suggestion, Allison doesn't miss the lack of motion from Meira, after she said funeral. But in this moment she doesn't think much out of it. After a bit of convincing Sophie finally agrees to let her daughter go with Allison to her family reunion. Happily Meira skips out of the room, into the direction of her own, to pack her things for the trip. Excited she she opens her door.
