Mrs Greenwood furrowed her eyebrows and looked at her wristwatch. It was already late.
"Where's Thea?" She asked Samantha who came out of the changing room alone.
Samantha awkwardly smiled and played with her fingers saying, "She won't see Aaron's performance. But she will come on time when her turn arrives."
"Why isn't she gonna watch his performance?" Mrs Greenwood's voice sounded a bit upset.
Thea had to understand her opponent's skills too, right? Why couldn't she understand this?
Samantha didn't answer her question. She just shrugged her shoulders. When others heard that Thea wouldn't see Aaron's acting skills, they burst out laughing.
"Poor girl! She can't bare to see his amazing skills. She's just afraid." Someone said.
"Yeah, yeah. When she sees that Aaron is too perfect as Rajh, she won't be able to make up her mind to concentrate on her performance. So I think her decision is great, right? Ha ha haa..."
"Yep! You got it, second Sherlock Holmes."
A girl scoffed when she heard them.
"Anyone can understand that idiot. You don't need a special brain or a high IQ."
Aaron was unhappy to hear that she wouldn't come to see him. He had a selfish thought of showing off his talents in front of the girl he... ahem... he found interesting? He completely lost his desire to perform his part as Rajh.
Sofia felt nervous too. She thought that whether Thea was feeling sick or something. She felt troubled and uncomfortable at that thought. Her heart asked her to see Thea and find out the truth by herself. However, she made her heart steel and waited. Thea would show up later anyways. At that time, she can ask what the problem was by herself. She consoled her messy heart, thinking like that.
During his performance, Aaron said his lines like a robot speaking.
When he said, "Jinia, I love you and I can sacrifice the whole world for you", he was lack of emotions.
Aaron was surprised by himself. He didn't feel any sparkles or fireworks when he uttered such honey-coated words. Instead, he found them stupid.
'Who speaks such nonsense cheesy words?!' He thought annoyingly.
He took a quick, heavy breath to collect his thoughts and looked at the girl in front of her. Only if she was Thea... Aaron's whole face turned red at that thought.
The girls bit their fingers to prevent themselves from screaming. All of them had seen how Aaron blushed like a tomato when he said his dialogue. They found him so adorable. Even the teacher was satisfied at that moment. She was a bit troubled when she saw his performance which was a lack of emotions and after seeing his blushing face, she secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
It seemed like he finally came to his tracks. Sofia blinked her eyes in confusion.
'Why are you blushing?' Her mouth itched to ask that question. She felt bored. She wanted to quickly end this thing.
She surpassed her true feelings and smiled sweetly saying, "I know."
When Aaron finished his acting, most of his classmates went up to him and congratulated him as if he had already won. Some girls took this chance to make a conversation with this handsome, young man. They impatiently pushed each other in order to find an opportunity to steal his attention even for a bit.
It looked like almost all of the students had completely forgotten about Thea's existence long ago.
Until...
Someone screamed with excitement.
"Wow! Who's that handsome boy? Is he a new student? why haven't I seen him before?"
Everyone's attention turned towards that voice and soon they also found out about whom she was talking about.
On the stage, a boy was standing in a corner while putting his right hand inside his pants pocket. He lowered his head. His eyes were only half opened. He looked hella attractive and breathtaking.
His position looked especially sexy and it made the young girls blush instantly. Although they had seen so many handsome boys like Aaron before, there was something special about this boy. He looked exceptionally gentle, sweet and approachable unlike most of the other boys. His easygoing appearance increased girls' confidence.
When he saw that everyone was looking at him like they wanted to swallow him entirely, he finally lifted his head and with a slight smirk, he winked at them! Gosh! He was deliberately seducing the audience below him.
"Who are you?"
Finally, Mrs Greenwood asked suspiciously. Why did she feel that he looked so familiar?
The boy bowed down a little and said, "I'm Rajh! Nice to meet you Mrs Greenwood, my dear beauties and handsome buddies!"
His voice wasn't that much of masculine one. But it was quite elegant and pleasant to hear. It was soothing.
When others heard his voice and the name he used to introduce himself, they eventually realized that... he was actually Thea!
Everyone was completely dumbfounded. The hall which was filled with lots of noises a moment ago now fell into a dead silence and could hear a pin drop!
"I can't believe this. I thought he's my future hubby!" A girl's voice made them come back to their senses again.
