(A/N: The part that Im gonna read now is when Clarissa and Cempaka are on stage and already going to perform. Also, I promise this'll be the last singing thing 😅😅😅)
--Performance Day--
(Cem-Bold, Clar-Italics)
The two started off; they were wearing identical clothes. Purple and yellow striped shirts on top and dark blue jeans. Their hair tied up in ponytails.136Please respect copyright.PENANA91Rev6Mz7Z
Why are you running away?
Cempaka ran to one corner of the stage and squated down; holding her hands above her head in hiding..136Please respect copyright.PENANAV3CDtMixH6
Everything’s just come together at last
Clarissa clasped her hands together and ran over; singing her part and handing her friend a toy.Â
It’s broken, I don’t want to playThe girl threw the toy away in anger and despair and stood up; taking her hand..
Closer than anything, closer than anything136Please respect copyright.PENANA2W7VWcpBC4
Shared our bed and wore the same clothes
They moved their hands on each others clothes, showing complete symmetry as they moved their hands in sync; playing with their hair, tucking in their shirts...all in perfect sync.
Talked about everything, spoke about so many thingsThe two girls came closer and cupped their hands on their mouths and ears; whispering..
Cempaka took off the first layer of clothes, revealing a fully yellow shirt under it.136Please respect copyright.PENANAupxwHqwWaK
Should we be firemen? Can we be astronauts?
Clarissa took of her top as well, showing a vibrant purple hoodie underneath it. They were no longer identical...
What if they find us? They’re not looking anywayCempaka dragged Clarissa off the stage and down to the judges.
This is our birthday, so why are we weeping?136Please respect copyright.PENANAnaCpX9fWr4
At your side, I feel like a ghost
Clarissa dropped to ground and sobbed, "Why?!" And Cempaka came and pulled her up, continuing their act.
I wake up first, and I stare at you sleepingThey let down their hair and kept the hair-ties on their wrists as they walked back up the stage.
Do you think I should marry him?ÂCempaka pointed to Mr.Joel and Clarissa shook her head;Â
She pointed to Mr.Lester and Mr.Nogla as she shouted back. 136Please respect copyright.PENANAqAucKc91nO
I want to be famous They're watching us anyway
And the lights went dim...
A parasite needs a host136Please respect copyright.PENANABvgWIPCdCs
I’m only trying to do what is best for us136Please respect copyright.PENANAyH93NyLcDt
Well, I never asked for this, I never wanted this
As the lights came back on; Cempaka and Clarissa were arguing,Â
All that I want is some time to myselfCempaka pushed her fellow singer to the ground, turning her back and crossing her arms.
Looking in your eyes, I’m coming homeClarissa crawled slowly towards her..136Please respect copyright.PENANAUcflUUjqx7
You’re always trying to be somebody else
Cempaka kept jumping back while yelling her lyrics at her 'Sister'..136Please respect copyright.PENANA9h6cMAVLyW
Well, you’re only scared of me
It was Clarissa's turn to push her...136Please respect copyright.PENANAIKFFUgUeaR
Why don’t you let me free?
Cempaka shot.
‘Cause you’d never dare to beClarissa threatened.136Please respect copyright.PENANAxzDqgOG9dg
(I’m just/just stop) reminiscing,136Please respect copyright.PENANA1MkFDYk3Kx
I feel something missing
Both girls spun around inwardly and brought their hands up to tie their hair; one in a ponytail and the other in pigtails.Â
I just want (you here with me my privacy),They spun around.
God (can’t we just get along/won’t you leave me alone)?They both shouted at each other and the lights went dark.Â
--2 minutes passed--
There was a roar of applause from both teachers and students for those two; and others as well.Â
When they finished it was already time for the interval, so the judges went backstage to meet them. They were surprised to see what the girls were doing though.. Once thought enemies were hugging in happiness. The three teachers stood there for awhile; waiting for them to notice. When they did, they pulled away and frowned at each other, "THAT WAS A ONE TIME THING!" Cempaka defended and Clarissa just snickered.
"Ye' both did great." Nogla congratulated with a thumbs up. The other two nodded; "That acting was amazing...just wish you'd be that good in Drama." Phil teased and the short pigtailed girl playfully glared at him. "Cempaka, your voice was so strong..!" Joel remarked and Cempaka smiled.Â
"Thanks! And Cem? You arent so bad after all.." Clarissa laughed, "Vice vesa." Cempaka smiled back.
That was the starting of a new friendship...
