~star's perpective~

By the time I reach her door my mind is clouded with thoughts about how much I'm going to tear her a new one for what she did. I bang on the door trying not to break it down as I hear shuffling inside someone saying something before the door opens and a young woman stands in the doorway. She has long blond hair that's pulled back into a ponytail and baby blue eyes that are glossed over with some tears, why is she crying? "May I help you?" she sounds tired and she isn't really looking at me like's she's lost in space. I wave my hand at her face, she looks at me for a couple seconds before fear is expressed on her face as she looks me over her eyes falling on the pendant hanging around my neck. "You, I...it can't be" she stumbles with her words stumbling back a bit in fear. I don't have time for this "ok listen I'm here to see Luna I'm guessing you're her mother so may I talk to her please?" I snap a bit rudely at her the anger slowly rising again as I try to calm my breathing.

 "you can't take her" 

"what? I just want to talk to  her"

"well you can't"

That's it I tried the nice way with her but no, she has to go and act crazy and attack me like this.

"listen here ok I just want to yell at her because of what happened at school between us and how she did something that has me pissed"

She looked stunned by what I have said but I don't care and I am not done with her. Before I can speak though she says with such boredom"what's your name?" I'm taken back by the question but I just respond anyway 

"Vega but I prefer Star." 

"you're that Star girl she talks about then, where did you get that pendant?"

 Luna talks about me, weird "some kid from my school gave it to me" she thinks about before walking into the home so I just walk in after her and just decide to stand in the hallway of her home while she heads upstairs. Shortly after I feel a tug on my shirt as I look down to see a little girl who looks to be maybe 7 or 8 her blue eyes glowing as she looks up at me "who are you?" she askes me and I can't help but smile at her "I'm a friend of Luna's" "oh cwool." "what's your name?" I ask her "emiwy" she chirps smiling before twirling in a circle her long hair flying around her before she stops to face me again.

 "What's your name?" 

"it's Star"

"that's a pwitty name"

I can't help but giggle a bit at how adorable she is, wait I don't giggle, why did I just giggle? I shrug it off as I hear someone coming down the stairs and It turns out to be Luna's mom and Luna trailing behind her. Her mom gives me a hated look of daggers as Luna looks up at me and then at her mother "coming?" I ask her and she just nods before following me out of the house.
