Chapter 13 Day Before The Interview.

(Kara's P.O.V)

It is Tuesday morning, the sun has risen perfectly, I was still on my bed reminiscing the past events that had happened lately the past few weeks.

First, I had to perform in a concert that accidentally revealed my secret, fought with my best friend Tracy, made up and lost contact of each other again.

I had to hold a press conference to calm the commotion that has been going on and I'm glad it worked perfectly, now I only have to worry about this annoying interview.

I wish I could just cancel the interview and let them say what they are gonna say, but I can't help but feel scared that it might ruin my eight years in the music industry, just thinking about this fact made me sigh deeply.

"Rise and shine, it's a new day!. I could hear Rebecca calling out to me as she came inside my room.

If not for Rebecca I would have probably been lonely now, she has been taking care of me like her own blood sister regardless of the fact that we just met not long ago.

I for one also see her the same way as she sees me, which is as sisters.

"Wake up sleepyhead," I could hear her say while trying to shake my body, so I could wake up easily, unknown to her that I am already awake.

"I'm up, I'm up, what time is it?. I asked her while pretending to be half awake.

"It's past ten in the morning, sleepyhead," she said pretending to be angry at me.

"Oh, time run that fast! wow!. Do I have any schedule today?. I asked her.

"No you don't have any schedule today, except for your home school lessons with Mr. Phillip, he will be tutoring you at your study room as usual," she answered.

"Oh okay, then I'm gonna head to the bathroom to have a quick bath," I said to Rebecca.

"Okay then I'll prepare your casual dress for you to wear today before you leave the bathroom," she said to me while walking to my walk-in closet.

"Okay thank you very much," I said to her while walking to the walk-in closet to open the security door of the closet for her.

Getting to the door, I placed my hands on the fingerprint sensor, and the door opened immediately, giving the opportunity for Rebecca to access the closet and pick up a nice casual wear for me.

Turning to Rebecca, I asked her about the whereabouts of my mom.

"I'm sorry Kara but Mrs. Stewart left the house for the office as early as eight this morning, she said she has a board meeting in the office this morning," Rebecca said to me.

"Okay, but did she have breakfast?. I asked

"Yes she did," Rebecca answered me.

"Alright that's good, it's a relief that she was able to eat something before the board meeting," I replied Rebecca with a smile on my face.

I left the room and started heading straight to the bathroom when I suddenly asked Rebecca about Mr. Phillip.

"He's fine, he's doing fine, is there a problem?. Rebecca asked me politely.

"Not that I care if he is okay or not, he's a strict person for a teacher and I just only needed to know when exactly he was coming, so I could prepare myself upon his arrival," I said to myself.

"I just wanted to know when he'd be showing up," I said to Rebecca.

"Okay, I'd be sure to let you know immediately as soon as he arrives Kara, so just don't worry about that okay?. Rebecca said to me.

As soon as I heard that from Rebecca, I immediately went to the bathroom for a good warm bath, while Rebecca called in the maids to arrange my room and remake my bed, while she picks one of my casual wears for the day.

After about thirty minutes in the bathroom, I came out from the bathroom and immediately went to the spa room, upon getting there I did a body massage and some manicures and pedicures before coming out of the room and heading straight to the dining room downstairs.

I got to the dining room looking so fresh, I sat down on the dining table and my breakfast was immediately served, the head chef of my mom, Mr. Chun li, a five-star hotel chef has overdone himself in preparing my breakfast.

Looking at the servants' faces, I was so sure they were craving for the delicious meal I was eating, so I immediately called out to the head chef who has already returned to the kitchen immediately after serving me.

"Mr. Chun li, is this menu still remaining in the kitchen?. I asked him while looking at him inquisitively.

"Yes Miss Stewart, but I'm afraid it's not much, I didn't know you would have more than your desired quantity today, please forgive me, I can quickly prepare another one if that's okay?. Mr. Chun li answered me politely.

"No, Mr. Chun li, I've had enough okay?. I just want you to prepare the same menu you prepared for me and share it among yourselves, please ensure you triple the quantity so It'd be enough for you all." I said to Mr. Chun li making him to stare at me in shock.

It seems like he couldn't believe what he just heard now, from me their young mistress.

"Who would blame him for staring at me like that?. I asked myself while looking at his shocked face, my mom has always inflicted that fear on them making them dumbfounded upon hearing my orders.

She has always been the one to maintain an employer-employee relationship, with no room for closeness except for my manager Rebecca that she has considered a daughter of hers.

But she wasn't cruel to the servants and that alone made me happy.

"Ma'am it's okay, we would just manage the remaining quantity left in the kitchen," Mr. Chun li said after he was finally able to recompose himself.

"No! I want you to prepare another fresh meal of this same menu and triple it, and this is how it would be done in this house starting from now! I said with a commanding tone making him terrified a bit.

"O...Okay M....Miss Kara, I'd be sure to let the kitchen staffs and the entire house staffs of the new law, you just made now," Mr Chun li said to me while stuttering.

"Good! I said to him with a smile while preparing to leave the dining room.

"Okay ma'am, so if you would excuse me, I would love to go and see your oders are carried out," Mr. Chun li said to me with an excited tone.

"Okay, you may go," I said to him giving him the permission he asked for.

"Thank you very much, ma'am," he replied with a bright smile.

Getting up from the dining table I headed straight to my room, sat down on one of my couches in my room, picked up my apple laptop, logged into my social media account, and started to view the comments attached to the post of me releasing an album soon with my actual name "Kara Stewart" instead of the usual "K.S" name I was using before, posted by Rebecca on my behalf.

Looking at the smiling photo of myself on the laptop screen I was wearing a red gown and a red diamond necklace to match, It was obvious that I was looking gorgeous in the photograph, thanks to my make-up artist and stylist, they are always known to do a great job.

The said post on my social media had over nine hundred and fifty billion likes, eight hundred and fifty billion comments, looking at the positive comments about me, I was beyond happy seeing those positive comments about my upcoming album, instead of the usual negative comments that have been flooding my social media ever since my secret was revealed, made me smile happily that my eyes teared up.

Looking at my profile closely, I saw that changes have been made to my social media account, it was now having the name "KARA STEWART" instead of my old name "K.S" which is the abbreviation of my real name.

My followers had increased greatly in a matter of hours, I was having nine hundred and ninety billion followers on my social media account, but looking at my social media profile now, my followers have increased to thirty-five trillion followers.

I was beyond shocked about the increase of my followers, never did I expect that I'd attain that number of followers on my social media account, I was even expecting to see that my followers have been decreased, but instead it increased greatly.

Exiting my social media, I quickly web searched myself and saw that the same changes has been made, my profile was now having the name "KARA STEWART" instead of the usual "K.S" it was having before, no doubt my social media account was edited and changed by Rebecca, but looking at my profile showing on the web, I was sure they might have changed it immediately my secret was released.

My profile was now read as follows:-

There was not much difference from the old profile except now my name has been changed to "KARA STEWART" in place of the old one "K.S."

Every detail my mom gave in an interview on my behalf, when I was still little, was still written on the profile, except for my networth, awards, and songs that they normally keep updating every year.

When I release a new song, the old ones changes to the new one sung by me, so non-fans and fans can know about my new songs, it was something they do constantly every year.

What shocked me to the core is that I became the most searched celebrity and public figure on Wikipedia, I for sure knew that it has been a month since my secret was out, and I wasn't expecting this to happen, I was beyond amazed and happy about the turn of events.

I was still checking out my profile on Wikipedia when Rebecca walked into my room.

"Kara! Mr. Phillip has arrived, he is downstairs waiting for you," Rebecca said to me as soon as she came inside my room.

"Okay! I'll be down in a minute, thanks for letting me know Rebecca," I said to her.

"You are welcome, but be sure to come down on time, you don't want to keep him waiting, trust me, he doesn't look like he is in a good mood," Rebecca said to me while leaving my room to attend to other things on my behalf as my manager and publicist.

"Thanks, Rebecca," I said to her while switching off my laptop.

Few minutes later I came downstairs to the living room to welcome Mr. Phillip, my tutor.

"Welcome Mr. Phillip, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting, please forgive me." I apologized as soon as I came to the living room.

"It's okay Miss Stewart, so shall we start with your studies now?. He asked sternly.

"Y...Yes, we shall." I stuttered while answering him, Rebecca was really right about him not being in a good mood.

We walked into my study room and he started tutoring me with all seriousness, I on the other hand was listening to what he was teaching with rapt attention.

He taught me about seven subjects, gave me tests to practice on and assignments to solve at my leisure, well that's the advantage of having a private tutor and being homeschooled, If I was to be a student of Malibu high school, there's no way a teacher would give you assignment to solve at your leisure, it is totally unacceptable.

Five hours passed, and finally, Mr. Phillip was through with my tutoring lessons, he packed his belongings and immediately left as if the devil was chasing him, without even saying goodbye to my mom who has just returned back home and currently relaxing in our garden.

After finishing my assignment, I quickly went to the bathroom and had a quick shower before coming out to the garden to have lunch with my mom who was still waiting to have lunch with me, she felt she needed to make up for her missed breakfast with me this morning.

I was still solving my assignment when a male servant came to inform me that my mom was in the garden waiting to have lunch with me.

I felt elated knowing that my mom wanted to have lunch with me, she was a very busy woman for a mother, being the Chairwoman and C.E.O of "K.S RECORDS," one of the most prestigious and most leading entertainment company.

I felt proud of my mom's achievement but I couldn't help but feel sad for her, she was always too busy that she often misses her sleep during nighttime.

I can't really blame her, millions of people are depending on her for their income and livelihood, and she has to meet up at always, therefore, overworking herself all the time.

At least her work has been reduced a little since Rebecca came to become my manager and publicist, but nevertheless she was still always busy, busy enough to miss breakfast sometimes.

I couldn't help but feel excited upon hearing my mom wanted to have lunch with me, I hurriedly finished my assignment but I was sure that what I had solved was correct.

Arriving at the garden, I greeted my mom and she answered me with an excited tone.

Upon sitting down on my seat opposite my mom, the kitchen staffs immediately served us our meal.

It was marshed potatoes going along with chicken fried steak, barbecue rib, apple pie, green chile stew, cheeseburger, reuben sandwich, and chocolate chip cookies which happens to be one of my favorite cookies alongside boston cream pie for dessert, followed by my favorite almond milk.

No doubt the chefs had overdone themselves, looking at the table it was covered with meals as if we were having a banquet.

I and my mom were looking like teenage lovers having a date, except we were females.

After half an hour, I and my mom went for a stroll in the garden capturing the wind of nature.

My mom took me to the lounge located at the mansion and sat me down to have some serious discussions.

"Kara you are here in the Whitman show, tell us about yourself," She said to me.

I looked at her with my eyebrows rising up, who knew the serious discussion we were to discuss was about my upcoming interview with Alaric Whitman holding tomorrow at 9 am in the morning.

"Mom what's the meaning of this?. I asked her with my eyebrows raised.

"Tomorrow you are going to be having an interview with a very strict TV host, he isn't Charlie Leslie, the one that conduct interviews for you these past two years, Charlie Leslie only has a TV channel that covers America, but Alaric Whitman has a TV channel that covers the seven continents of the world and he's a strict interviewer, he doesn't grant favors no matter who his client is, no matter his or her status, that's why he got the nickname the "FEAR GIVER" his face is very intimidating and he has an intimidating aura surrounding him, he instills fear on his client." My Mom said to me in an explaining manner.

"So what?. What if he's a demon or the devil himself, I ain't scared of him," I said to My Mom firmly.

"But you gotta be prepared! This interview is unlike any interview you've ever faced." My Mom said to me with a convincing but firm tone leaving no place for argument.

"Okay let's prepare," I said to My Mom while sighing in defeat.

I and my mom conducted the question and answer section, she was posing as Alaric Whitman, while I was posing as myself.

The interview practice lasted for two and a half hours before retiring to the mansion, as soon as we got inside the mansion, I and my mom went to the dining room and we had our dinner, I wasn't able to eat much, having eaten a lot of food earlier during lunchtime

After eating, I went to the bathroom, had my bath, put on my nightgown, and went straight to my king-size bed to sleep, because tomorrow was the day of my interview.

I needed to sleep on time so I could wake up on time.

I didn't want to risk waking up late knowing I'm having an interview with one of the coldest TV hosts, a man who wasn't easy to please, I couldn't help but feel nervous about tomorrow morning.

Brushing those thoughts away from my mind, I decided to sleep and deal with the said cold TV host tomorrow, after all the said interview was tomorrow.

Sighing deeply, I finally closed my eyes in sleep but it was interrupted.

I was about to close my eyes to sleep completely when I suddenly felt something warm and soft touching my cheek.

Opening my eyes, I saw My Mom kissing me on my cheek while wishing me good night.

"Good night and sweet dreams baby girl! sleep well and dream of me," I could hear my mom whispering to me softly while leaving my room.

There was a surge of happiness gushing into my heart at that very moment, it has been long since my mom did something like that to me.

She was always kissing me good night and even reading stories to me at my bedside when I was three to four years old, but immediately I became famous and she started the K.S RECORDS company, she stopped doing that with me, because she was always exhausted whenever she comes back from the company.

She, doing this with me now, made me felt so much happiness and with her sweet gesture, I felt I finally had the encouragement I needed.

I felt nothing was going to scare me anymore because my mom would be there for me every step of the way, she would be inside my heart and that alone would be enough for me to face even the devil himself.

Twenty minutes passed, I finally switched on my nightlight placed on my nightstand, seconds by seconds my eyes were getting heavy and I was finally able to sleep without any negative thoughts, anxiousness, or nervousness clouding my mind.
