Mystical Me

Lisa Darhk, a 13-year-old girl, had finally arrived at a momentous stage in her life. It was her very first performance, and the nerves were fluttering within her. As the organizer announced her name, the audience's anticipation grew. "Keep it cheering for our one and only Lisa Darhk," the organizer declared.

With all the courage she could muster, Lisa stepped onto the stage, and the audience's gaze was fixed upon her. She began to sing, her voice carrying the weight of her dreams and aspirations. "There's nothing you could do to make me walk away from you, it's true; I've got your name across my heart, a promise written in the stars, for you..." Her voice was like a beacon, captivating everyone in the room. Her performance was nothing short of magical, and the audience responded with thunderous applause.

At the end of the competition, Lisa emerged as the victor, solidifying her status as a star in the making. Her parents, who had been distant due to their own demanding careers, were now beaming with pride for their talented daughter. But this story begins much earlier, with a glimpse into Lisa's background.

Lisa had been born into a world of fame. Her father was a renowned figure, and her mother was a famous model. Despite their illustrious careers, they had little time for their daughter. However, Lisa had found solace and purpose in her extraordinary talent – her singing. Her captivating ruby-red eyes and short, bobbed hair were complemented by a voice that had the power to ease the sorrows of anyone fortunate enough to listen.

A month after winning the competition and becoming famous, Lisa found herself in an unfamiliar situation. It was her first day of high school, and she eagerly sought her parents' guidance and support. But, to her dismay, she couldn't locate them anywhere in their grand house.

Lisa's perspective takes us inside her world. She descended the staircase in search of her mother, hoping for a warm and reassuring presence on her first day of high school. What she encountered, however, was far from what she expected. The vast, opulent kitchen was staffed with a cook and a butler, but her parents were conspicuously absent.

Butler Shawn, a familiar figure in their household, informed Lisa that her parents were still asleep, despite having left for work in the morning. This revelation was disheartening, as Lisa had always been used to receiving their blessings and a touch from them before going anywhere. It seemed as though the promise of their presence had been compromised.Disappointed, Lisa left the kitchen and retreated to her room to prepare for her first day at high school. Her room was unlike any other, reflecting her family's opulent lifestyle. She had pleaded with her mother to change the room's decor, but her requests had fallen on deaf ears. Her room boasted a family-sized bed, a full-length mirror, a dressing table, a colossal wardrobe brimming with more clothes than she could ever wear, and an overflowing shoe rack. Her mother had insisted that the room was already well-furnished, leaving Lisa feeling like a stranger in her own space.

She dressed for school and, as usual, left with her driver. Arriving at the school, her driver handed her the school bag, and she approached the entrance. What she encountered there took her by surprise. A group of students had gathered, blocking the hallway, and they held a banner that read, "WELCOME TO OUR SCHOOL LISA, WE LOVE YOU." It was an unexpected and heartwarming reception.

Though she was inwardly shocked by the display of affection, Lisa maintained her composure. She graciously thanked the students and tried to make her way through the crowd. Yet, they persisted in surrounding her, eager for a moment of her attention. Lisa couldn't help but think to herself, "This is obviously the life of a famous person."

In the midst of the attention and the luxury that came with her family's fame, Lisa was just a 13-year-old girl trying to navigate the challenges of adolescence, school, and her own desires for a more normal family life. Her journey was only beginning, and she would have to find a way to balance her newfound stardom with her personal aspirations and the need for a meaningful connection with her parents.
