Starstruck

Description

Lalisa Manoban had a lot going for her. She was drop-dead gorgeous with an equally beautiful voice. She was sweet but very temperamental. She had a lot going for her. Her music career took off and she had everything she could have ever wanted. Until she couldn't take the pressure anymore. The hours upon hours of dancing was exhausting and had put her in the hospital several times. Her hectic schedule often caused panic attacks. She felt like she couldn’t keep up with it all. She began forgetting her lyrics during live performances. People who have talked and interacted with her described her as being “spacey” or “not totally there”. In the beginning of her career, she was level-headed and her spirit was strong. As time went on, she began having fits of rage. She would feel like running a marathon one minute and break down crying, exhausted, the next. Lalisa was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. When word got out, her career was over. After a suicide attempt that landed herself in a psych ward, she could no longer live her dream.

 

   Rose is an up and coming singer-songwriter with a big heart and a desire to save. On a foggy morning, when they met at a coffee shop, something clicked. Rose was starstruck. She had admired Lalisa throughout her career and couldn’t believe she was standing in front of her. As Rose’s career flourished, the burning desire to take Lalisa up with her was overwhelming. They started as friends. Until something inside them connected.

Foreword

The door to the coffee shop slowly opened as the bell, attached to the handle, sounded softly. Fog filled the streets and Rose thought people must have stayed home. It was also a Sunday, and the coffee shop was nearly empty. Rose quietly approached the front counter to place her order. The door leading to the kitchen creaked open as the barista made her way to the counter.

 

“Hello. What can I get started for you today?”

 

Rose stood still, shocked. It was as if something the air out of her lungs.

 

“Lalisa?”, she asked, her voice sounding nervous.

 

She was starstruck.
