The Last Song -Chapter 7
Chapter 7: The Fading Echo
Anna was standing behind the curtains, her heart racing with the familiar mix of nerves and excitement. The murmur of the crowd reached her ears, a reminder of the countless faces waiting on the other side. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and clutched the microphone like a lifeline.
The stage was her home, the one place where she felt truly alive, but now it was also a reminder of what she was about to lose. Her voice, once strong and vibrant, was now a whisper of its former self. Yet, she was determined to make every note count, to pour all of her soul into the melodies that had defined her life.
Leo was there too, hidden in the shadows, his camera ready to capture the night. He had promised Anna to keep her secret, and he intended to honor that promise. He knew the truth about her illness, but to the world, she was still the star that shone bright, her music a beacon of hope and joy.
As the curtains lifted, Anna stepped into the light, and for a moment, all her fears and worries faded away. She sang, each word a piece of her heart, each note a tear she couldn't cry. The audience was captivated, hanging on to every sound, every expression that crossed her face.
Leo watched, his heart heavy with a sadness he couldn't express. He saw the struggle behind her eyes, the effort it took to keep singing. But he also saw the strength, the courage, the undying passion that drove her. He felt privileged to be the one to tell her story, to show the world the true face of bravery.
After the concert, as the applause died down and the crowd dispersed, Anna and Leo shared a quiet moment. There were no words needed; their eyes said it all. They were in this together, a singer and a journalist, bound by a story that was more than just headlines and fame.
