ANDREWS RESTAURANT**
A cup of cappuccino” Someone ordered
“Coming right away” Amelia answered
?The STARS are back
?Like seriously
?I missed their concert
? It’s true, they arrived this morning
“My idols are back” Jewel gushed making Amelia face her
“You too…. Who are the STARS? I was wondering why they are all screaming”
“You don’t know them?” Jewel asked looking at her as if she’d grown ten heads
“Do I need to know them? do they share money for people?”
“Are you in this planet earth at all? ”
“No, I’m in Jupiter and who told you that earth is a planet? Someone is getting brainy” Amelia teased ruffling her hairs
“Thanks for the compliment, at least I’m better than someone who doesn’t know the STARS”
“I don’t even know our president’s name why should I know the STARS? What’s on my mind is to work hard and save money for college”
The whole world knows them” Jewel said
“Not the whole world because I don’t know them… As if they will add value to my life”
“Listen to me hunn, once you set your eyes on them, they will take your breathe instantly”
“Will they ki|| me? Why will they take my breathe away when I didn’t offend them?”
Jewel shook her head inhaling loudly
“Did you attend high school? you probably passed the back of the school”
“What!!” Amelia yelled smacking her head
“Are you here to work or play?”a voice said behind them making them freeze
” Have you suddenly gone dumb?” the manager added
“We are sorry, sir” they chorused
“Amelia, go over to that table and clean up” He said before leaving
They released the breathe they’ve been holding
“You’d better go now if you don’t wanna get fired”
Amelia moved to the table and packed the used plates and glasses. She saw a paper on the table
“What’s this? ” she wondered loudly
She opened it and she gasped instantly, a scholarship form into Blitz college!!
She put the paper in her pocket before taking the used plates
*****
“You don’t mean it” Jewel said beaming in smiles
“Like seriously, this is the form” she replied bringing it out
“OMG, I’m so happy for you”
“I’d better start reading to prepare for the exams”
“Congrats in advance”
“Stop talking like we won’t see each other again”
“Will a student of Blitz want to talk to someone like me?”
“You aren’t best friend, I can’t possibly forget you” Amelia said hugging her tightly
Jewel phone buzzed and she quickly brought it out
“The STARS are organizing a concert, I’m so gonna go” Jewel squealed in happiness making Amelia look at her strangely
“So… the so called STARS can brighten your countenance like this”
“I wish I can just meet my crush” Jewel said staring into the space dreamily
“In your dreams”
“What!!! I can meet them someday, it’s not something impossible”
“okay, good luck”
“Take a look at their pictures” Jewel muttered bringing her pinging her phone hurriedly
“This is Ryan” She added turning to face Amelia only to find out that she’s gone
“Amy, wait for me” she shouted going after her
“Why did you leave?” She asked as soon as she got to her
“Why won’t I leave? I told you that I’m not interested in the STARS or wh@ťěver name called. Besides, my mom and sis would be waiting”
“You are coming with me to the concert, it’s in two days time” Jewel said
“I’m not going anywhere with you”
“You are and you must”
“You can force an horse to the river but you can’t force it to drink water” Amelia said tactfully
“What’s the meaning of that?” Jewel asked
“Why did you drop out of high school in the first instance?”
“What!!! Why does it seems like you are mocking me?”
“Me, I can’t possibly mock my best friend” Amelia said with an innocent look
Jewel looked at her suspiciously before shrugging her shoulders
“Let’s go home”

THE STARS MANSION**
“I’m not going back to school, Sir Eddy” Arnold said
“You all have to, you went to musical school not college. You will all be attending Blitz college with the MOON girls” He said
“Why do we need to go to school? Our schedules are tight and you want to add schooling to it?” Ryan scoffed
“It’s for your own benefit, you should just pick days to attend so it will be less stressful for you” Sir Eddy replied
“What do you think about it, Ted?” he uttered
Arnold looked at Ted hoping he’ll be against it. At least if Teddy is against it, they would not have to go
“It’s fine by me” He answered picking up his phone
“I’ll be there soon” he said into the phone before hanging up
“Where are you going to?”
“The lawmakers request for my presence” he replied
“Don’t those people get it? why can’t they just leave you alone?” Arnold grunted
“Are you the one they are calling over? why are you the one complaining?” Sean retorted
“I just feel pity for him, my first love”
Ryan looked at him shaking his head lightly
“When will you use your sense? My hyung can’t be your first love”
“Are you talking to me that way? I’m f***ing older than you, kiddo” Arnold replied with a smirk
Ryan expression changed immediately, he h@ťěs being called a kid
“I’m not a kid” he said standing up
“Then what are you? a grandpa?” Arnold said mockingly
Ryan looked at him for a while before storming off
“Your concert at Vietnam was excellent” Sir Eddy said
“All thanks to Teddy who covered Arnold silly mistakes” Sean replied standing up
“You wouldn’t blame me, will you? I never wanted to go to the concert”
“You should have stayed back then, not like you are of importance” Sean said running away immediately
“What!!!” Arnold screamed going after him
