Chapter 2: Who Is He?

Sometimes Fantasy Is Better Than Reality

September 23, 2016 6:00 PM: Delano High School: Gene Beck Football Stadium

"This is where it all began Haru-yah. This is where mommy began her career in youtube, the first ever vlog I put up was actually here when it was during our homecoming sweetie." Bituin said with a smile as she carrying her six-month old daughter Haru through the gates of the Gene Beck Stadium.

Bituin couldn't help but smile, she was finally back at her alma mater Delano High School, where she first began her first vlog and posted it on YouTube. This school, gave her a lot of good and bad memories at the same time. She discovered her first heartbreak from her middle school boyfriend Dominic Ocampo but where she also decided that she wanted to become a youtuber as her career. She smiled, her four years in high school was actually the best four years of her life, sure she faced heartbreak, backstabbing, fake friends, and finding true friends but it helped her become the person that she is today.

Even through all that, this school had helped her find want she really loved doing. She was in choir for four years and because of that it helped her post her first cover on YouTube as well. Drama club, helped her wanting to become a better version of herself while she helped out in a mental disabled program it help her realize that she wanted to become a nurse.

"Bituin Marie!" a manly voice called her out as she turned around, she saw her high school counselor Mr. Norman Truman with a big smile on his face, she walked towards him while carrying Haru.

"Mr. Truman! It's so nice to see you again! I wanted you to meet my six month old daughter April Mae." she said with a smile.

Mr. Truman hugged Bituin as he smiled at Haru as he laughed, "Well I can't believe I'm already have a grandchild from you already Bituin. I thought you would have waited until you were 28 to start a family." he said.

Bituin couldn't help but laugh, she knew he was correct because when she was 16, she kept talking about that she wanted to have a family when she was 28. She wanted to finish her school and then find a job then start a family but it didn't turn out that way, college was way more expensive then people told her about. She had the struggle of paying for her classes and her college books.

"Where is your husband by the way? I want to meet the man who finally tamed my daughter and given me a beautiful granddaughter." said Mr. Truman.

Bituin bit her lip, she didn't know what to tell Mr. Truman that her ex-boyfriend left her when she found that she was pregnant with Haru. She didn't want to tell him that she is a single mother since some of her classmates were happily married and started their own family as well. She didn't want them to frown upon her and talk behind her back but she knew that since she put her life on the internet that people would soon realize that she is a single mother.

"Well actually Mr. Truman to say the truth I'm a single mother. My ex-boyfriend left me when he found out I was pregnant with April. He wasn't ready to start a family yet or even wanted to be a father yet." she said softly.

Mr. Truman frowned when he heard what Bituin told him, he had met Bituin's ex-boyfriend Kim Jong-Suk a year before. He never did like him at all because he seemed like he was never happy to have Bituin as his girlfriend. He always thought that Jong Suk was never good for Bituin and he always felt that he would always run away after he got Bituin pregnant.

He sighed, he knew that he should have never trusted that Kim Jong-Suk guy near his favorite student at all. Now, Bituin was alone raising a beautiful six month old daughter named April Mae.

"You should have called me if you had problems Tuin. You know you're like family." Mr. Tuman said softly.

Bituin sighed and nodded. "I know Mr. Truman but then I wanted to do things myself and I know it was going to be hard being a single mother but I wanted to become strong. She became the best gift for me." she said softly.

Mr. Truman nodded his head, he knew that Bituin would always be an amazing mother and he saw how loving she was towards Haru and he knows that hopefully one day, that she would find someone who will truly love her and Haru like his own daughter. Bituin meant a lot to him because he knew her story, she was adopted by her aunt and uncle and was raised as their own daughter because her real mother died from a car accident and her birth father was in Korea but didn't know she exists at all.

"I'm proud of you Bituin. You became the best version of yourself, I remember you when you were just a student here in Delano. You felt so lost and you didn't know what to do. Look at you know, you became a single mother to my granddaughter, you are a well-known over the internet but also you still remember where you came from. Never change Bituin, I know one day that you will find your prince charming. I'm so proud of you Tuin." Mr. Truman said as he gave Bituin a big hug.

Bituin smiled sadly, she had hoped she will find her prince charming soon. She felt bad that her daughter didn't have that complete family that she always dreamed for her daughter. Even if her parents always said that Haru is lucky to have her as a mother and that she doesn't need a man to help her raise her daughter all she wanted was a complete family for her daughter and for herself.

Who is he? Who will be the guy who will love her and be a father to her daughter? Of course, she had admirers but none of them fit her ideal type or they were simply already in the friend zone and she didn't want to go beyond that. She had a lot of amazing guy best friends and amazing brothers who had helped her raise Haru but she felt jealous at times because she wanted Haru to have a father-daughter relationship that some little girls have with their father and what she has with her father as well.

After talking to Mr. Truman for a while, she kept walking around the stadium before the game had to start. She had passed by some of her classmates in high school and said hi to some of them while some didn't even notice her at all but she didn't mind. Some of her classmates were already married and have a family of their own, she was jealous of that and she wanted that so badly.

She looked at Haru as she kissed the top of her head as tears ran down her face, she was clearly jealous of the complete family that some of her classmates had and she just wanted that for her daughter, that's all she wanted. She heard Big Bang's 'Bang Bang Bang' starting playing as she saw the varsity players coming out as she started to laugh, her baby brother William had made it to the Varsity team even if he was just a freshmen but she also saw him dance as well.

Haru started to light up when she heard her favorite song play and start to babble along with the song as Bituin started laugh a little. She knew her daughter was a big fan of Big Bang and the youngest fan of them as well, Haru kept moving her arms like she was dancing along to the song and it made Bituin smile that her daughter was happy.

How could a six month old baby be such a happy virus and make her day so much better. She smiles as Haru looked at her as she said softly, "You really love Big Bang that much huh Haru-yah. Sometimes people think that G-Dragon will be my future boyfriend and will be an amazing father to you one day. Sometimes I think they are joking because he doesn't even know I exist anak."

Haru looked at her like she knew what her mother was talking about but Bituin knew she was still confused as well as she laughed softly and kissed Haru's nose.

"Ate! Hurry up! Mom and dad want to take a picture of all of us together for Haru's first football game." she heard her younger sister Yamella Mae call to her as she walked towards her on top of the bleachers.

Bituin smiled and nodded as she handed Haru to Yamella Mae as she heard her sister ask Haru, "Did you see Uncle Will dancing to your favorite song?"

Haru babbled like she knew what her aunt was asking her as Bituin smiled, she was lucky to have amazing family by her side and help her raise her daughter and stay by her side as well when times get rough.

"Ate, next thing you know it when Haru turns three, she might want G-Dragon to be her daddy and to be your future husband. Wouldn't it that be amazing though?" Yamella asked excitedly.

Bituin couldn't help but laugh, her family always knew that Haru's favorite member from Big Bang is G-Dragon and her eyes would always focus on him the most then at all the members of Big Bang as she shook her head as she said, "Mella, what are you talking about? I don't even think G-Dragon knows that I exist though. I've done a lot of K-Pop covers and done some reactions as well but I doubt that G-Dragon would know who I am."

Yamella frowned, she didn't really agree with Bituin at all because she remembered that her sister was well known with some Korean fans as well. She did remember that her sister did get a lot of calls from Seoul to be part of some dramas and to do some OST's, she always declined them because she worried about their family and Haru so much. Bituin always put their family and Haru first before anyone else in this world and sometimes it scared her that her older sister will never find someone who will truly loves her but she knew that she sometimes had to meddle because all she wanted was her big sister happy.

"Ate, all I want is for you to be happy. I want you to fall in love and give Haru that family you always dreamed of. You've always worried about us and Haru so much and at times you forget to live your life as well. I'm sorry that meddle too much and joke too much that G-Dragon will be your future husband but I just want you happy." Yamella said sadly as tears ran down her eyes.

Bituin smiled and hugged Yamella tight as she said, "Mella, I am happy. I may not be in love right now but whoever he is and wherever he is then I just hope that he will understand that family mean the world to me and he should also love Haru as well as his own. Right now, I am happy because I have you guys in my life. Prince charming may not have come yet but at least I have my family with me."

Bituin watched Yamella carry Haru down the stairs of the bleachers to their seats as she sighed softly, she knew that Yamella Mae was correct because her family did worry about her not being in love after what had happened between her and Jong-Suk. Love would always find its way to her and she knew that it takes time. She didn't know who he is or where he is but she knew that it would come naturally. She laughed as she saw her younger brother William Jr. dancing and lipsyncing to 'Bang Bang Bang' by Big Bang, her younger brother always loved making Haru smile and would do anything to make them laugh as well.

She walked down the stairs of the bleachers, she laughed how the head coach of the varsity team was actually trying to act like G-Dragon and saw Yamella cover Haru's eyes because she didn't want Haru to get any nightmares. She saw her father William Sr. and her mother Stella laughing along and sighed, she hoped that one day she would have a relationship just like them. What she didn't know that her whole life was about to change forever.
