Triplets?
Chapter 2: Prologue: Singing and Modeling
"Now, turn this way Sakura. No, not that way, this way. Okay, good, you got it." Ms. Kobe was talking to Sakura who was turning on the runway in preparation for the new collection of Coach. She would be dressed in a white strapless dress that had the Coach symbols on it and a pair of white gloves would adourn her arms while she held the new handbags.
"Come on Sakura! You have to have your makeup on! The show's starting in 20 minutes!"said Ms. Kobe and motioned for Sakura to go in the makeup room.
"Okay Sakura! I'm so glad you got it this far!" said her makeup artist who was also her best friend.
"Thanks Kelly! But shouldn't you be doing my makeup right now? 'Cause I only have like twenty minutes left, and that doesn't even include me getting dressed and rehearsing my song right before I start to walk the runway!"said Sakura with her nervousness showing.
"Sorry!" said Kelly with self-addressed guilt.
"It's okay, just hurry, ok?"Sakura said while bending down to smile at Kelly since Kelly's head was lowering.
"Okay!"Kelly replied with a huge smile that made Sakura smile back at her.
Kelly quickly applied the makeup needed, which wasn't much since Sakura already had most of the correct tones of color on her face.
Sakura then went to the dressing room and put on her black Coach dress which she would sing in, and changed her gloves. She was always seen with gloves on, even Kelly had never seen her arms. When her class was supposed to be learning to swim properly, she got a note saying that she could not take off her gloves, and was seen wearing water-proof gloves.
After she had her hair into her famous pigtails, she went pacing back and forth to rehearse her song she would sing.
About five minutes later, a large round of applause told her that the show had started. She went to find Ms. Kobe since she would tell her what to do next.
"Do you have everything memorized?" asked Ms. Kobe.
"Of course!" said Sakura who was shocked at being asked that, but she guessed that it didn't hurt to be true.
"We now welcome Asakura, the queen of pop! She will be performing a song, and will come back later afterward to model the handbags. " said the host. As he went off the stage, he passed the microphone to Sakura who would have the entire stage to herself.
"Hello! The song I will be singing is called Ai no Uta." greeted Sakura. When she came onto the stage, the audience immediately begun clapping and whistling since they had heard of her before and had seen her face in many posters all around the city. The media began to take pictures of her since pictures of her were very rare since her famly made it clear that she could not be in any pictures except for the pictures taken when she was on the runway and when she was singing, but none otherwise. The lights dimmed and there was a spotlight trained on her.
She began to sing :
Kono chi ni chikara o
No ni hana o
Kokoro ni ai o...
Nee kono mimi o oshiatete kikoeta inochi no zawameki
Sou oboeteru atatakana kodou ni tsutsumareteta koto
Dare ka no koe mo, dare ka no kizu mo, kikoenai furi o suru
Sonna minikui kao ni damasarenaide
Ima sugu ni ai ni ikite
Kono yo ni umarete
Anata no me ni
Nani o utsushite
Ima kono chi ni chikara o
No ni hana o
Kokoro ni ai o...
Nee kizutsuita sono hane o iyaseru sube sae shirazu ni
Sou doko made mo bokutachi wa aruite mata sore o seoi
Donna jidai mo, donna basho demo tashikana ai wa aru
Dakara furueru koto mo nageki kanashimu koto mo nai
Ai no naka e
Namanurui kaze ni
Utare boku wa
Nani o nokoshite
Ima kono chi ni chikara o

Soshite
Dare ka no koe mo, dare ka no kizu mo, kikoenai FURI o suru
Sonna minikui KAO ni damasarenaide
Ima SUGU ni ai ni ikite
Kono yo ni umarete
Anata no me ni
Nani o utsushite
Ima nama nerui kaze ni
Utare boku wa
Nani o nokoshite
Kono chi ni chikara o
No ni hana o
Kokoro ni ai o...
After she finished, the crowd screamed and whistled and clapped and the lights came back on. The host went back to the podium and was given the microphone from Sakura.
She quickly changed into her white Coach dress and gloves. And the show continued.
At the very end, the designer of Coach went up to the runway and she placed her hand in the crook of his arm. They then went to the back together and heard the host saying to the crowd that the show was now over and that they could leave.The audience groaned since they wanted to hear Sakura sing once more, and they knew she could make a failing show seem like a winning one.
Backstage, the designer was thanking Sakura and all the other models for modeling so well during the show. Then he thanked her personally for singing the song when he found out that the original entertainer couldn't make it.
"Thank you so much! You made this seem possible when before it seemed so impossible. Thank you!"and then he left to talk to his peope who were telling him with great excitement that people were already starting to order so soon.
Ms. Kobe led her to her car and put her in the back seat carefully since Sakura was already sleeping and she would have to create hertwo musicvideostomorrow.
THE NEXT DAY
"Sakura! You need to wake up! You're expected at the studio in half an hour!" said Ms. Kobe as she tried to shake her charge awake.
"Huh!"said Sakura with great horror. She looked at the clock and saw that it read 7:30 am. "Ahhhhhhhhhhh!"
AT THE STUDIO
The moment she stepped into the studio, she went into the bathroom to wash her face to get herself more awake. That always helped.
"Sakura! Come on! We don't have all day for you!"said Ms. Kobe from outside.
"Okay, I'm coming!"Sakura replied and she stepped out.
She got settled in one of those blue egg chairs and started eating a piece of toast with some jam on it.
Once she got her mouth free of the toast, she said,"Okay, we don't have much time since I'm expected in Japan at about 4:30, I want to do the music videos for...Every Heart andFukai Mori, okay?"
No one shook their head.
She got onto the platform and creased her forehead in thought. Ms. Kobe immediately went up and smoothed out Sakura's wrinkles that were starting to form.
"Okay, first we will do Every Heart, then Dearest."stated Sakura
The tech people began the music for Every Heart and she slowly moved to the beat, putting her head-microphone on, she began to sing : (A/N : for every heart, i can't have the lyrics the way it should be on the website, so there is space between every line, ok?)

At the end, she had to look away and wipe her tears away. She always enjoyed singing the song, but she always felt sad at the end, she never knew why.
She stepped off the stage and prepared for the next song, Dearest.She quickly got the lyrics and rehearsed them in her mind. She stepped back onto the stage. The music started and when it reached the point, she bagan to sing :
hontou ni taisetsu na mono igai subete sutete (It would be nice if we could put away and throw out)
shimaetara ii no ni ne (everything except what really mattered, but)
genjitsu wa tada zankoku de (reality is just cruel.)

subete ga bukiyou de (it was all awkward.)
shita yo netoomawari (We went the long way, didn't we?)
tadoritsuitan da ne (We got hurt, didn't we?)
The song ended when Sakura looked at the camera with eyes that were beginning to tear.
Someone began to clap.
Everyone turned to look at the person clapping. They all sighed in relief when they saw it was only Sakura's foster brother. No one of the public were supposed to find out that the famous Asakura was only 12 years old and that she was a child prodigy.
"aniki, what are you doing here? I thought you were going to wait for me at the airport!" said Sakura with shock.
"I did. It's just that it's already 5:00, and you missed your flight."said Atobe, Sakura's foster brother.
"Whoops?"said Sakura trying to make her aniki feel happy rather than mad.
"It's okay, but we have to get going NOW. Otherwise you can't meet that person I want you to meet."
"Okay, okay. Hold your horses." She said goodbye to Ms. Kobe and all the other people on her techno team.
They were able to land in Japan by 6:00 pm.
That's close, otherwise Ryuzaki would kill me since we're supposed to meet at 8:00 am. thought Atobe.
