"That was incredible!" said Lua, wiping tears of happiness from her eyes. She was just an assistant to Alan, however, she had also come to know Irina and Cecilia along with Alan.
She was very emotional as the debut that everyone was painstakingly working toward ended with a big success.
"I can't believe we did it," said Cecilia, her voice shaking with emotion. She hugged Irina and Lua.
"That was so much fun, I want to do it again," said Irina, grinning widely.
Irina and Cecilia could hear the crowd chanting their names, and she felt a rush of adrenaline. They had worked so hard for this moment, and now they were living it.
"Congratulations!"
Alan said. He was happy that the debut had turned out to be a success. He felt that his hard work was truly worth it when he saw Cecilia and Irina's smiles.
Cecilia turned to him, grinning from ear to ear.
"We did it!"
She said.
"We're idols!"
"Thank you, Alan! Really thank you."
She hugged Alan with tears in her eyes. She was very excited and very thankful, especially toward Alan. She had seen how hard Alan had worked for them.
"EEK!"
Although after her excitement died down and realized what she had done, she quickly pushed Alan and apologized.
"Sorry! I was so excited that I didn't know what I was doing. Alan, sorry!"
Cecilia said. Her face was red. She was very embarrassed as it was her first time hugging a boy.
However, there was no response from the other side. Alan was too dumbfounded to speak.
( Was it real? Is this reality? Did I get hugged by Cecilia? Hehe, if this is a dream I don't want to wake up. )
Alan has already gone into his own world. He could not believe that the girl that he liked was hugging him. He even had a stupid expression on his face.
Irina didn't seem very pleased with what was happening and glared at Alan. Though Alan had not noticed this due to being high in the cloud.
"Wake up! What are you grinning for!"
Irina said, not able to watch his stupid face anymore.
Only then did Alan come back to reality where he saw Cecilia apologizing.
( Was it real? )
He still couldn't believe it. But he couldn't have Cecilia keep apologizing.
"Don't apologize! It was not anything big."
Alan said.
( Rather I should say thank you. Thank you, God! I know my hard work has paid off. )
He said, shouting in his heart.
"But I have touched you without permission. I should apologize."
Cecilia still felt that she did something inappropriate. Especially in front of Irina. She turned around and glanced at Irina. Despite this, Irina didn't seem to mind her actions, which was to her delight.
"Forget it! This guy would have rather enjoyed the sensation. Just say it was a reward for his hard work."
Irina directly said.
Irina, who knew Alan had a crush on Cecilia, also knew Alan would never hate being hugged by Cecilia. Moreover, who would hate being hugged by a girl as cute as Cecilia?
"Yes, there is no need to apologize."
Alan said. The wording could have been better, but he chose not to say it because he didn't want Cecilia to feel guilty for nothing.
"I still have to congratulate you on your wonderful performance."
Alan said.
Their last performance turns out to be much better than he expected. He was sure that they would get fans quickly and become popular.
They once again celebrated. They also receive many calls from their friends to congratulate them on their wonderful debut.

"Did you see that? Cecilia and Irina had killed it with their last performance."
One of Cecilia's classmates said. Many Starfire school students had come to support Irina and Cecilia. They had good expectations which had been fulfilled by them.
"I did! I did! Now, stop shouting."
One of the girls replied. She was getting annoyed by her friend shouting in her ears. Though, she had to admit that Irina and Cecilia's performance was out of this world. At least, better than all the concerts that she went to.
And she was right! Many of the audience were still filled with excitement. They were discussing everything that they had witnessed there. It was truly a great night for them.
Flawless vocals, intricate choreography, and an engaging stage presence. They had everything, however, the greatest point of the concert was definitely the songs.
Even the best singers in the country would rarely have such good songs. Those songs had already become their favorites and they were eager for them to be available on MeloPlay.
After the concert, fans flooded social media with their reactions to the debut, expressing praise and shock at the group's incredible performance.
One fan wrote, "I can't believe how amazing their debut was! Their vocals were so powerful, and their dance moves were so sharp. I'm already obsessed! Irina was the best."
Another fan commented, "I've been a fan of different Idol for years, and I have to say, this debut blew me away. Cecilia has so much potential, and I can't wait to see what she has in store for us next!"
Some fans expressed shock at the level of talent and professionalism displayed by the newly debuted idol group.
"I can't believe they're rookies! They performed like seasoned veterans. I have no doubt that they're going to be huge," one fan exclaimed.
Overall, the response to the group's debut was overwhelmingly positive, with fans praising their talent, charisma, and potential to become one of the biggest names in the idol world.
Not only them but there were also some critics who had managed to come to their performances. Music critics, journalists, and some bloggers were all busy writing about today's concert. They were excited to write after having witnessed such a great performance.
The number was way less compared to other Idols but definitely more for an Idol Debut. Some were invited by Alan while others had just come because they were free. Anyway, reports about idols always get popular, so they thought they might get some interesting news.
And they did! Despite the fact that it was radically different from what they expected. They expected a low performance from the rookie's Idol debut which turned out to be the complete opposite. It was a phenomenal performance being on the level of Top Idols.
One of the popular music critics called 'Tune Titans' wrote their review on their website which instantly got ten thousand views.
<"Rising stars: The captivating debut of Irina and Cecilia"
As the idol industry continues to grow and evolve, we are constantly introduced to new faces and voices that leave us awestruck. And with the debut of Irina and Cecilia, we can add two more names to the list of rising stars.
Their debut performance was a masterclass in showmanship and talent. From their impeccable vocals to their flawless choreography, Irina and Cecilia showcased a level of professionalism and polish that is rarely seen in rookie idol groups.
But the biggest surprise for me was obviously the songs that they sang. It was at the level of world-class, especially their last duet called 'STAY'. 'Stay' is a beautifully haunting ballad that showcases the group's emotional range and vocal prowess. The melody, coupled with the simple yet powerful lyrics, evokes a sense of melancholy and longing that resonates with listeners. The acoustic guitar and piano accompaniment provides a delicate and intimate backdrop that allows the members' voices to shine.
I believe that this song could be the best song of the month, maybe even the best song of the year. Yes, it has that much potential. We hope to see all their songs on MeloPlay.
Overall, Irina and Cecilia's debut was a triumph. They are a shining example of the potential and promise of the pop industry, and I have no doubt that they will continue to captivate and inspire audiences for years to come." >
Tune Titans evaluated Cecilia and Irina very highly. Even going to the length of saying that 'STAY' might win awards which some might consider is a big claim.
No matter what, Irina and Cecilia had started to put their foot inside the Idol Industry.
