Star * Heart

Chapter 14

Harry's POV

While I was being looked by girls..my eyes keep seeing only one

It was finally tonight, the audition for the dinner night performance. At first, I thought of making our appearance as a surprise for Sheira. Well, I've been interested to perform as well for the dinner night after I've seen most of my friends participated. Including her. How the team was formed? I told Muaz, my roommate about being interested to do some fun and cool stuff. Muaz introduce me to Tod who happened to be someone that already involved in dancing. One is Tod roommate and they often dance together during free time. In short time, we manage to get a practice room however, we loves practicing outdoor since the natural breeze is better. Zaeim became interested after I told him about my plans. It was a coincident that Tod and Sheira's team leader, Ash are friends. I've been told that Ash used to be a member of the dance group before he got scouted by a lecturer to enter the drama group for a certain competition. He fell in love with the drama group and become inactive with the dance group. However, Tod is an understanding friend. Well, Ash often visit the dance practice room since he still loves dancing.

It was a short period, we became teammates, got ourselves a practice room, practice, register and perform. Everything happened instantly.

I looked around the main hall and saw that there are many students there gathering. some are the contestants, some are the audiences. At a corner, I saw Sheira and her teammates. She looks happy. Well, she always am happy. That's not doubt.

'Hey, Harry, let's sit down' said Zaeim to me while leading the way following Muaz, One and Tod. Coincidently, our seats are next to Sheira's group.

'Ash looked worried' said Tod to One. I glances toward Ash as Zaeim and Muaz did the same thing. 'as a leader, he must be very nervous' said One agreeing to Tod. 'ah, Sheira went to sit next to him' said Muaz a little bit of the teasing tone from his voice. I glares at him. 'what?' he asked. I sighed. I stares at Sheira. 'she's calming Ash down, I assumed' said Zaeim. 'Sheira has been close to Ash since the last semester' said Tod pausing. 'eh, she is?' asked Muaz. Tod nods. 'She likes trying out things including dancing. Ash scouted her after into the drama team as soon as he realizes that she got talent' explained Tod. 'but, need not to worry. Ash is with Fira' said One punching me a bit. I glance at him. 'why are you...' before I managed to end my words, Tod butted in. 'yup, since last semester' he agreed. 'whatever' i said.

It's time to perform. I focus of what should be done by me. Sheira might notice this, we used different music from last night. Last night was actually a practice for the Dinner Night. We prepared a lot since we have confident in being chosen. Just wait, I'll show you the other side of me that you never see before.

'woooohooo!!' I heard a very familiar voices along with a loud clapping. I glances toward the source of the voice and it was Sheira. She froze after me and my teammates all looked at her. She got all panicked and covered her face with her small palms. I chuckles. 'idiot'

'she's awesome, dude' that statement, I agreed indeed.

On the stage, if The Coffees potrays their feelings into a drama, we..will potray our stories through dance following the rhytmn. The dance that we came up together. The dance that make us, united. As I was being serious and having fun on the stage, my eyes suddenly averted to Sheira's. She looks enjoyed.

From the beginning, I've heard clapping and cheering for us. But, once I;ve seen her face that looks like she is enjoying our performance, I'm blank. 'ah, crap! I missed the rhytmn' I averted my eyes from her and focus again. The performance ended after 5 minutes of dancing.

'arghh!' I screamed inside of my heart.

'Harry. you look down' Zaeim tapped on my shoulder. 'i made mistake, bro' I told him. Zaeim smiles. 'everyone does. Don't worry, no one notice' said Tod calming me down. I sighed deeply. Sheira will definitely makes fun of me. I hate her grinning and teasing about my weakness. 'damn it!'

'I hope I don't meet her after I get down from the stage' and yes, I did not meet her. She went to the backstage before we all went down the stage. Our exit is at the different location from The Coffees. Me and my team sat to our seats and waited for The Coffees to perform. I'm looking forward to see the side of Sheira that I didn't see yet.

As their performance started. My eyes are always looking for her. After a while, it's not just her that I paid attention too, it's the drama as well. The story that they played really unique and creative. It's different from usual. It's also humorous. What awesome about their drama is they manages to capture our heart and also us. They took us into the drama. Yes, they manage to catch us. Sheira's face showed that she really enjoys the performance. 'that smile..it's real' I wondered.

'they're awesome'

Everything ends, and the MC announce the chosen participants. Rhytmn and The Coffees both chosen. I sighed. 'we will once again become rivals, huh' I said to myself. 'it's not a competition..but, we will surely compete of being able to attract the audiences' it's the truth..the real intention of our fight. Attract audiences and make them have fun as we are on stage.

I took a deep breath after we went out from the hall. 'hey, go and meet her' said Muaz pushing me a little. I glance at him. 'who?' i asked. 'her' Zaeim joined us and glances at someone. I averted my eyes toward that person they meant. 'oh' i said. I turned at them and they smiles. 'well, I'm going' said Muaz going ahead of me. 'heyyyyy' I pull him backward. I chuckles and I lead the way. Zaeim laughed. so did the other boys.

'you did great..you looks cool' Sheira said to me as I thought she might tease me as always. In fact, she acknowledged my show. She was amazed. Her reaction is like she was seeing idols on stage live. She was too over-acting. I giggles. She's waayyyy too interesting.

'for a second, i looked at you as a guy' that what she said. even though you used, 'for a second' but still, you looked at me as one, right?

Mom, sorry. But, I can't be together with this noisy girl. We promised. We will stay as friends. Like we promised..
