Once Upon a Star

Chapter 2

Debby won’t stop moving and looking for cute guys, which made Hanna feel irritated, “Will you please stop moving?” Hanna yelled at Debby. Debby sat still and looked at Hanna who was looking at her with her arms crossed. “Sorry,” Debby told Hanna, as Hanna looked away from her. Debby did stop moving and looked at Hanna’s way. Hanna noticed and then she looked at what Debby was looking at too. Hanna turned and saw Sean. [How Nice Would It Be by Lunafly]

“He’s so handsome. Look at his hair and posture,” Debby whispered. Hanna looked and thought, “I already know that, Debby.” “I think it’s about to start,” Lyndon told Sean. Sean was looking at the stage when he suddenly noticed Hanna looking at them. Debby looked away the moment Sean looked at them. Hanna still looked at him; she placed her right hand over her chest. “My heartbeat…” Hanna thought as they looked at each other.

[Stardust] “Miss Hanna Park. Miss Hanna Park? Miss Hanna Park!” someone called her attention. Debby tapped Hanna, “Huh?” she asked Debby after staring blankly. “Just nod,” Debby told her friend. Hanna nodded, “Very well then,” said Miss Pauline, the principal of their school and went on speaking. Hanna looked at Debby, “She was asking you to prepare something for the general assembly,” Debby explained.

Sean was looking at Hanna, “She’s always like that, she often loses herself,” Lyndon explained. “But she is kind, and understanding. She may shout a lot, she may be bossy and loud, and clumsy, but she’s actually kind,” he added. Sean looked at Lyndon with a serious face; Lyndon just smiled and looked away.

“What were you thinking about?” Debby asked Hanna as they walked in the hallway. Hanna stopped walking; she faced her best friend, took her friend’s hand and placed it on her chest. “My heartbeat,” Hanna explained with a serious face. Debby looked at her friend with wonder, Hanna let go of her hand, “Never mind, you won’t understand anyway,” Hanna explained and walked away.

[My Destiny by LYn] “Stars, do you know where my father is? I know you do; you can see everything down here from up there, right? Can you tell me where he is? Because I badly miss him, almost two years of not seeing him makes me worry so much. He’s doing well, right? Please do look after him, and my sister too. She’s been working very hard to pay off the debts, and to pay the bills and all. Please look after them, it’s okay if you don’t look after me, just look after them,” Hanna talked to the stars as she smiled at them.

Sean placed the cup of warm chocolate on the table as he lied down on his couch outside his balcony.

“It’s still early,” Hanna told herself as she entered the elevator and dropped her handkerchief. Sean got out of his condominium unit and went to the elevator. He saw the handkerchief and picked it up as he shook his head.

Debby was holding two sandwiches as they walked in the school park. “Why do you always misplace things?” asked Debby she held the sandwiches. Hanna stopped searching and looked at her friend, “You found it already?” Debby asked, “You can walk ahead and not wait for me,” Hanna said and kept searching. A hand was handing Hanna her handkerchief that made Debby and Hanna look at the person who’s holding the handkerchief.

Sean handed the handkerchief, still with a serious face as he looked at Hanna. Hanna looked at Sean and took her handkerchief from his hand. “Thank you,” Hanna said, Sean walked away from them. Debby looked at Sean, then at Hanna.

“You live in the same building as he is? Why didn’t you tell me?” Debby asked, “Why do I need to tell you?” Hanna asked back. Debby moved her face closer to Hanna’s, “You like him, don’t you?” she asked Hanna. Hanna looked back, “I like who?!” Hanna asked back. Debby took a bite on her sandwich and looked at her best friend with suspicion.

“Hey can we…” Lyndon asked them, “No!” Hanna yelled as she looked at Debby. Hanna saw that Debby stopped eating and looked at behind her, where Lyndon was standing. Hanna looked behind her and saw Lyndon and Sean. “You guys can sit with us,” Debby answered with a smile.

They were all eating when Lyndon broke the ice, “So…” Lyndon uttered, “Sean, these are my girl friends,” he told him. Sean suddenly looked at Lyndon, “I mean friends who are girl, you get it, right?” Lyndon told him. “This is Debby Jane Do, just call her Debby,” Lyndon introduced Debby. “Hi,” said Debby as she smiled and waved at him. “And this is Hanna Park,” said Lyndon. Sean looked at Hanna, Hanna looked at Sean.

“They’re both from section 3,” Lyndon added and took a drink of his orange juice. “Nice to meet both of you,” Sean said in a low voice. Lyndon smiled at them, “Hey Hanna, have you decided on what you will perform?” he asked Hanna. Hanna looked at him, “Can I play the guitar for you?” Lyndon added. “Can you play the piano?” Hanna asked him with a smile. Lyndon shook his head with a sad face; Hanna just smiled at her friend.

Hanna was outside her balcony playing the guitar. [Genie Acoustic] Hanna then stopped strumming, “I believe that you can hear my song, can you please grant me my wishes?” Hanna asked as he looked up at the sky.

Sean was smiling as he talked in a phone call. “Yes, I will. You don’t have to worry about me. You take good care of yourself too, okay? I love you too, bye” Sean then hanged up.
