Chapter 232 Do You Know Who H Is? ,Coolest Girl in Town
Elise faced the camera with a smile as her eyes swept across the thousands upon thousands of fans who were here with her today. She said candidly, “First of all, I’d like to thank you all for coming here to see me. You guys honestly touched my heart. I mean, how lucky am I to be loved by so many people in the world? Thank you all for giving me endless surprises and love, and thank you for waiting for me all this while! Hopefully, I’ll be able to return one day in the future to release more music for you all. Thank you!” The stadium once again erupted into applause.
“Of course, there’s nothing we want more than for you to continue making music. After all, fans are still waiting for your new song to drop. To be honest, in these three years of your hiatus, H, I’ve been looping the same few familiar songs of yours on my phone. I wonder if we’ll have the honor of hearing them live today. What do you say?” The host turned to Elise while the crowd cheered her on. Elise gave a soft smile and nodded. “Definitely!” The audience cheered ecstatically, and even the host was visibly excited to hear that. “Well then, what are we waiting for?
Let’s all sit back and enjoy the music!” With the host’s words, the entire stadium quietened down at once. “Now, H will be bringing us a medley of three songs. The stage is yours, H!” The host then left, and Elise was now the only one left onstage. She stood in the middle, trying to find Mikayla’s seat. After skimming the audience, she finally spotted her friend in the crowd. Her lips curved into a sweet smile as the stage lights gradually dimmed. The background music played, and Elise’s dulcet voice filled every corner of the stadium through the speakers.
Her fans eventually started singing along with her softly. Elise sang three of her hit songs in one go before ending the performance. “Well, I was the only one singing on stage earlier, and I felt like something’s missing… Why don’t I pick a lucky winner from the audience to join me in my next song?” Just as Elise spoke into the microphone, her surroundings exploded into squeals. “Pick me!” “H, look here! Pick me!” “Pick me!” Her fans in the front row screamed eagerly, and Elise simply smiled casually as she said, “I’ll just pick someone at random, then. How about the person in the sixth seat on the third row?”
When Mikayla heard the number, she instinctively exclaimed with her ticket in her hand, “That’s me! She picked me!” Jack said in encouragement from the side, “Get up there, then! Go and meet your idol.” “Let us welcome our lucky fan onstage,” Elise said, and a light focused onto Mikayla all of a sudden. She wasn’t used to being put under the spotlight like this, but she still stood up excitedly and made her way to the stage under the envious eyes of the audience. Elise took the initiative to go up to Mikayla when she saw her. Mikayla was so nervous to meet H that she couldn’t speak, but Elise reached out and wrapped her in a hug as the singer whispered in her friend’s ear, “How are you feeling?
Are you excited?” Mikayla jolted at the sound of that voice. She pulled away from H in disbelief, staring into the eyes of this unfamiliar face. For some reason, she felt like she knew this pair of eyes… “Are… Are you…” Elise smiled and took Mikayla’s hand. “This next song is for my best friend. I was a little surprised and shocked when I heard that she’s my fan. She told me that her biggest dream is to one day be able to meet her idol, so I feel like I have to fulfill her humble wish today. So, this song is for you, best friend.” Immediately, the music started playing, and Elise sang into the microphone as she faced Mikayla.
Mikayla was stunned by the sight before her. The look in her eyes was filled with astonishment as she stared at Elise. I can’t believe it—the singer that I’ve idolized for so many years is my best friend? How’s this possible? Perhaps she was overthinking, or maybe this was all a hallucination. She stood on the spot and pinched her thigh as hard as she could. The sharp pain that shot up her skin made her realize that this wasn’t a dream. It was real. She stared at Elise, her mouth slightly agape in an upward angle. The next second, she took the initiative and held Elise’s hand, immersing herself in her best friend’s singing.
So this is what she wanted to surprise me with! What a huge surprise indeed! After the song, Elise and Mikayla shared a meaningful look as they locked eyes. “Thank you so much for coming onstage with me! I have a small gift for you.” Just as she was done speaking, a stage worker brought out a brand new CD. It was a song that Elise had recorded just for Mikayla—it was the one and only copy just for her best friend. “This is for you.” Mikayla took it and said, “Thanks!”
She pulled Elise in for another hug and whispered, “Thank you, Elise!” Elise let go of her with a smile and watched as she got off the stage. Mikayla was still quite jittery when she left the stage. She clutched the CD tight in her hands and went back to her seat, unable to hide the emotions she was feeling. When Jack saw her excitement, he couldn’t help but ask, “How was meeting your idol in person?” Mikayla chuckled bashfully without answering his question. Jack frowned slightly and said again, “Look how happy you are! You’re even more excited than someone who’s just won the lottery.”
However, Mikayla simply ignored him again with her eyes fixed on Elise who was on the stage. She still couldn’t recover from the shock from earlier. Seeing that she wasn’t responding to him, Jack was a little disappointed. The endless cheers for H around him wasn’t helping either. He became even more annoyed. “I really don’t know what magic she holds over these people for them to act so crazily.” Unexpectedly, Mikayla was very upset once she heard that.
“Shut up, Jack! Are you the only person that’s allowed to make your fans go wild?” Jack threw his hands up helplessly. “That’s not what I meant. It’s just that these fans are really too… crazy.” Mikayla broke into sniggers, but she immediately followed up in a mysterious tone. “Do you know who H is?” Jack was baffled. “What do you mean?” Mikayla tilted her head and gave it some thought. I’m afraid I’m the only one who knows H’s true identity. She said again, “Like I said, do you know who H is?”
