Chapter 1- The News
It was a fine hot day for Lacus to start school. While walking Lacus is looking in the booklet that has been given to them few days ago by the drama club. It was the day she was waiting for because the drama club will perform Cinderella, which is her favorite fairy tale. Smiling she said "I wish I could be the one to perform this role, I've always dream to be Cinderella."
"And who would be your prince?" asked a teasing voice from behind.
Lacus stop and look from behind. There she saw Cagalli who's looking on her own booklet and as if not interested to the play that is going to be held that morning. "You're not interested are you?" Lacus asked with a childish face.
Noticing that she had hurt Lacus' feelings, she denies what she really feels. "I'm interested." She said smiling, a bit not.
"No you're not" Lacus continue walking to the building leaving Cagalli behind.
"Why is she acting like that? It's just a play." Still looking at Lacus who didn't even look back at her. "I give up." She sigh "I guess she's still a child." Then followed Lacus and holds her hand.
"What?" Lacus said surprised.
"You want to see the play right?" Cagalli looking closely at Lacus. Then Lacus nod. "Then let's hurry or we'll be left standing!"
The two of them run to the building until they reached the performing hall. They sit besides their friends. The play is about to start, everyone was asked to keep quiet and turn their phone into silent mode. The lights were turned off. Everyone's looking at the stage. And the play starts with the appearance of two young girls with lights focus to them.
"Cinderella!" said an innocent looking girl in a very loud voice.
What's with this play? She looks to kind to be a cruel step sister. Cagalli thought while watching.
"Cinderella! Where are you?" said again by another innocent looking girl in a louder voice.
This is nonsense. Cagalli thought again feeling funny for the play.
The lights were all turned on and in the stage they saw a girl in a ragged dress sitting in the floor. The girl stands up and looks in the crowd. "I'm here my dear sisters." She said in a very sweet low voice.
Cagalli and Lacus were surprised and at the same time dumb founded when they saw that the girl who's playing Cinderella was Flay Allster. The girl that they always have an argument with. They saw Flay looking at their area with a smile which Cagalli find insulting.
Cagalli, controlling her anger "What's with this damn play? I thought that she hated the drama club and now she's the lead character!"
"Well…." Lacus said while not looking Cagalli but instead in her dress. "I think she's very cute."
"Lacus!"
"Well, she did audition for that role. They accepted her." Said Lacus feeling a bit depress still her eyes on her dress.
"And they chose her over you?"
"Yes"
"What's with them? Everybody knows you're good, um no, you're great when it comes in performing and you really are dedicated!"
"Ssshhhh" Some of the students where staring at them badly.
Lacus' smiling. "Let's keep quiet, ok? Their staring at us already."
Cagalli was feeling bad for Lacus. She know that Lacus really deserved the role but for some reason she wasn't chosen. They continue to watch the play feeling bored but when the scene is about Cinderella and the prince talking, Flay forgot her lines and ended up being saved by the boy who plays the prince. At least Cagalli feel a bit happy and contented.
After the play. The students went to their own classroom to do their own work since its school festival. Lacus while giving food to the costumers saw a girl outside the room sneaking. She went outside and saw Flay Allster.
Flay Allster went to her with chin up. "How do you like the play?"
"It was good." Lacus said frankly.
"It was not good! It was excellent! Because I played the role of Cinderella not you…" Flay said arrogantly.
"If that's how you feel." Flay was looking insulted by Lacus' words. "We have many costumers from different classes and schools, I guess I need to leave you now." Lacus walk inside.
"You're jealous! I know, I can see it. You're not accepted that's why…"
Cagalli suddenly grab Flay's wrist firmly. "That's why what?"
"Let go of me! You idiot!" Cried Flay angrily. Everybody was looking at them. Lacus went to Cagalli and tried to stop the fight. But Cagalli didn't stop.
"Maybe the whole play is excellent, but I guess your role wasn't. Try to memorize your line first before going here!" Finished Cagalli before letting go of Flay's wrist and went inside the room to drink some water.
Flay stop for a moment, she look at Lacus meanly and went away.
Miriallia went to Lacus to comfort her. "Don't mind her, let's go inside?" she said while patting Lacus' back.
Lacus nod and went inside together with Miriallia.
It was getting dark and cold. the day is already over, they have made their part, and cleans everything before going home. Lacus and Cagalli were driven home by Cagalli's driver, Ledonir Kisaka since Lacus will sleepover to them.
When their there. Mrs. Athha smile at them while going down the very wide stairs. "I'm glad to see you Lacus."
"Good afternoon Mrs. Athha. Cagalli invited me to sleepover here tonight." Lacus greeted politely.
Cagalli kiss Mrs. Athha in her cheeks. "Yes, Cagalli told me that yesterday."
"Mom, Lacus and I will be going to my room." Cagalli hold Lacus while going up.
"Lacus…"
Lacus and Cagalli stop for a moment and look at Mrs. Athha.
"Yes, Mrs. Athha?"
"I saw your father this morning with his fiancée. She's really beautiful and seems to be a good mother for you."
Father with his fiancée? Lacus thought surprisingly.
