Chasing the Star: How My Internet Crush Became My Boyfreind When Stars Align

[Scene: Akira’s bedroom, late evening.]

Akira stared at her phone, her fingers hovering over the screen. Her heart raced as she read Adam's latest reply. It wasn’t just a typical “Thanks for the support” message. He had sent her a voice note.

Adam Lictawa

(voice note) “Hey Akira, your thoughts always leave me smiling. You’re different. It’s like you see a side of me that no one else does. Let’s keep this between us for now, okay? Goodnight, star chaser.”

Akira’s cheeks turned crimson as she played it for the tenth time. His voice, soft and genuine, felt like a melody only for her. She let out a small squeal, rolling onto her bed and clutching her pillow tightly.

Akira Kai

“What does he mean by ‘you’re different’?” she murmured.

Manager

“Adam, are you even listening?”

Adam Lictawa

“Yeah, yeah. Something about a photoshoot, right?”

Manager

“It’s more than that. We need to maintain your image, keep the mystery alive. Fans love the untouchable vibe.”

Adam smirked but didn’t reply. His mind wandered back to Akira’s honesty. She didn’t treat him like a god or a product. She treated him like… Adam.

[Scene: Akira’s school cafeteria.]

Akira sat with her best friend, Lea, who was munching on fries.

Lea Villanueva

“You’ve been grinning like a lovestruck puppy. Spill it!”

Akira hesitated but couldn’t contain her excitement.

Akira Kai

“Okay, but you can’t tell anyone.”

Lea leaned closer, eyes sparkling with curiosity.

Akira Kai

“Adam Lictawa… He replied to me again. He even sent a voice note.”

Lea nearly choked on her fry.

Lea Villanueva

“What?! Adam Lictawa, the Adam Lictawa, sent you a voice note? Girl, you’re living the dream!”

Akira giggled but quickly shushed her friend.

Akira Kai

“Keep it down! I don’t want the whole school knowing.”

Lea nodded but couldn’t hide her excitement.

[Scene: Adam’s livestream that evening.]

Adam adjusted his camera and greeted his fans with his signature smile.

Adam Lictawa

“Hey everyone! How’s it going? Let’s hang out for a bit before I head to a meeting.”

Akira joined the stream, her heart pounding as she typed a comment.

Akira Kai

“What inspires you the most?”

To her surprise, Adam paused when he read her username. His smile softened.

Adam Lictawa

“You know, sometimes it’s the little things. Like genuine conversations, unexpected connections… and people who remind you why you started in the first place.”

Akira’s breath hitched. Was that directed at her?

[Scene: Akira’s bedroom, later that night.]

Akira’s phone buzzed. A message from Adam.

Adam Lictawa

“Did you catch the livestream? I meant every word.”

Akira stared at the screen, her fingers trembling.

Akira Kai

“I did. Thank you. It felt… personal.”

Adam Lictawa

“That’s because it was. Akira, I’ve been thinking… Would you ever want to meet in person?”

Akira’s eyes widened. Her heart raced like never before.

Akira Kai

“Are you serious?”

Adam Lictawa

“Completely. But only if you’re ready.”

Akira bit her lip, excitement and nervousness swirling inside her.

Akira Kai

“I’d love to.”

[Scene: A quiet café, a week later.]

Akira sat at a corner table, her hands gripping a cup of hot chocolate. The doorbell jingled, and she looked up to see him—Adam Lictawa, in the flesh.

He wore a simple hoodie and jeans, but his presence was magnetic. As he approached, he smiled, and Akira felt her nerves melt away.

Adam Lictawa

“Hey, star chaser.”

Akira Kai

(smiling shyly) “Hey.”

They sat and talked, the conversation flowing effortlessly. Adam shared stories from his life, and Akira opened up about her dreams.

At one point, Adam leaned closer, his eyes locking onto hers.

Adam Lictawa

“You know, Akira, you’ve made me feel more… human. Thank you for that.”

Akira blushed, her heart swelling with emotion.

Akira Kai

“And you’ve shown me that even stars can be within reach.”

Their hands brushed briefly, sending a jolt of electricity between them

[Scene: Adam’s car, later that night.]

Adam drove Akira home, the city lights casting a dreamy glow inside the car.

Adam Lictawa

“Tonight was special. I don’t want this to end.”

Akira looked at him, her heart full.

Akira Kai

“It doesn’t have to. We’ll always have the stars.”

Adam smiled, reaching out to gently tuck a strand of hair behind her ear.

Adam Lictawa

“You’re one of a kind, Akira Kai.”

As they pulled up to her house, Adam hesitated.

Adam Lictawa

“Can I see you again?”

Akira nodded, her cheeks flushed.

Akira Kai

“I’d like that.”

With a lingering glance, Adam watched her walk inside, a newfound hope lighting up his world.
