"Beneath the stage's bright, relentless glare,
A celebrity toils with unwavering care.
Each spotlight moment, a product of sweat,
Behind the glamour, a tireless mindset is met.
Through fame's tumultuous tide, they strive,
In the quiet hours, where dreams revive.
For the hard work of a celebrity's reign,
Is a testament to resilience, amidst the fame's gain."

"Eirene?"
Someone knocked on the hard wooden door.
"Eirene?"
Someone was called, but no one answered. Instead, the rustling of fabric echoed in the room.
"Eirene? If you've woken up, it's time to wash yourself and have breakfast. You have to continue filming, right? Wake up"
*knock *knock *knock
The girl in question was still lying on the bed, motionless. Eyes still closed, and arms spread wide enough to occupy the bed.
Soon after, the girl turned and suddenly. *blagh!
"Ughh..."
*knock *knock
".... Did you fall off the bed?" The person outside asked.
"Noo.. I flew off the bed" Eirene said with a hoarse voice. With eyes still closed, she frowned before getting up from the floor.
"Get out of the room now. It's time for breakfast"
Eirene walked, eyes still closed, towards the door then, *slam! "Ouch!" She squinted her eyes then opened the door.
*Yawn~
"Good morning. Oh, and be careful not to catch flies"
"Good morning... Yawn~ what's my... Schedule for today?"
Eirene sat on the chair while a hot milk was quickly served in front of her.
"It's early in the morning yet you already want to talk about work?" The assistant raised her brow at Eirene while holding a spatula.
Eirene blinked slowly at the assistant before speaking, "Then who was it that told me I need to continue filming while waking me up?" She picked up the mug and drank from it.
"You always have something to say, don't you?" The assistant twirled the spatula around before turning back to the stove and flipping the pancakes.
"Of course!" Eirene raised her lips with smugness.
"That isn't a compliment so don't smile" the assistant said as if she had eyes on her back.
"I'm not smiling~" Eirene, still smiling, enjoyed her mug of milk.
The assistant sighed loudly enough for Eirene to hear. "Hehe" Eirene couldn't help but be happy early in the morning.
"Here" and a plate of pancakes came into her view.
"Thank you" Eirene started eating her pancake. Meanwhile, the assistant opened the television then came across the morning news.
