Helen: Chapter 2

"Five minutes to the show!" Samantha called out to the performers. She was the timekeeper, making sure the people on this project are on time.

"Helen!" Eileen pulled her and made her sit down on a chair.

"You haven't put on your make up! We only have 5 minutes!" Eileen took the makeup kit and helped Helen.

"Sorry! I'm so excited!" Helen said cutely, inside she just feel so emotionless, so hollow. But she couldn't express it, no, she will not destroy her friends' Christmas.

"I'm doing your hair!" Cathy came running with a red ribbon on her hand.

"Stand by guys! Make it work!" Ma'am Julia said Project Runway's quote, making everyone giggle.

"Curtains." Ma'am Julia told Jeremy.

The red curtains went up and the music started... ...

Santa U Are The One

you come around to every child in the world
always in time you're never late every year
how does it feel to work,everyone's off,no one to help you
how do you reach your soul,its for sure,no one does it better
Christmas is finally here
its time to celebrate cause
you make a better world year after year
soon you'll be on your way
spreading joy everywhere
there's no one like you
santa you are the one

(thank you santa,thank you) you are the one
(go go santa go go) you are the one
(thank you santa,thank you) you are the one
go go santa go go

its a gift from everyone
thank you for all that you have done

christmas is finally here

spreading joy everywhere

Sleigh Ride

just hear those sleigh bells jingling
ring ting tingling too.
come on, it's lovely weather
for a sleigh ride together with you.

outside the snow is falling
and friends are calling 'yoo-hoo.'
come on, it's lovely weather
for a sleigh ride together with you.

giddy up, giddy up, giddy up,
let's go, let's look at the show,
we're riding in a wonderland of snow.

giddy up, giddy up, giddy up,
it's grand, just holding your hand,
we're gliding along with a song
of a wintry fairy land.

Distance

i know it wasn't our time
we had to go our separate ways
you don't know that silently i
was crying out for you to stay

the years come and go but i'm still alone
my tears like snowflakes falling without a sound
i wish i was with you now

when it snows outside on this winter night
i'm looking for a trace of you
i'll never forget the time that we've met
catching us in the snow

when it snows outside on this winter night
i'm looking for a trace of you
i'll never forget the time that we've met
the winter when we fell in love



As the last note sounded, the choir ended the song, the audience stood up and clapped.

The choir bowed and went back stage.

"Good job everyone! Marvelous!" Ma'am Julia said while hugging everyone.

"Helen, you're crying." Eileen and Zoe were by her side. They noticed when she was singing the last song.

She only nodded and smiled brightly.

"Are you okay?" Eileen asked worriedly.

"Yes. I'm okay. I just need a little time to cool down." Helen laughed a little.

"Come on, we're going to my place." Eileen said while taking Helen's bag. The three said goodbye to their teacher and friends and left the hall.

"I'm driving."Zoe said while taking the keys from Eileen.

"Why? This is my car."

"Cause the last time we sat in your car, when you were driving, I almost puked." Zoe reminded her. Eileen was a... well... let's just say her driving skills need a little practice, especially on the brakes and accelerators.

"It's MY car!" Eileen said again, loudly into Zoe's ear.

"I'm driving. Get in." Zoe said and took the driver's seat. Eileen beside her, arms crossed and Helen behind them, tears still falling.
