Chantal sat at a bench watching a bird nestling on a nearby tree branch. She had just realized that she hasn't been in this part of town for years. Ever since she was a little girl, she had always enjoyed the tender surroundings of this hidden garden, one that to this day made her feel like Mary Lennox.
She sighs, frustrated. Her relaxation was being ruined by an unruly bunch of little kids. She turns and glares at them. They did look like they were her age; 'Oh please, they could never be compared to me.' she thought roughly. |

Kristin was trying to enjoy the time that she had to herself thinking about her new designs and if she should continue or not. Sharpay had gotten Kristin the Job at the high school as the dance coach, as soon as she had her twin girls she would probably take the job...but she would be working two jobs and wouldn't have time for her children...she would have to think about everything right now she just wanted peace and quiet. She took a rest on the bench, she was sure that no one would recongise her here. Kristin was on the dance team at east high her senior year and she had taken the team to nationals and won that year. She had helped Joey with his dance studio back then and was a professional dancer when she was younger.
Kristin had been to the Black pool in England many times and won all but twice. Only someone who was really truly into dancing would recongise her...if she even was still talked about. Kristin wasn't just a model either when her parents owned vouge, Kristin was the IT girl and she had been in every magazine even teen vouge. She was also Married to Joey Parker the famous Singer. Kristin had been in the public's eye her whole life and now that everything had settled down she was happy that she wasn't the public's guinea pig any longer.

Chantal stared at the lilacs of the garden, it was a big reason of why she loved this place. It was peaceful, filled with memories and she realized as she gazed around, the meanings of the flowers. She smiles, this was truly her 'place'. She notices a young woman take a seat on a nearby bench, but didn't think about it. She was in her personal space trying to breathe out the forces of high school. As she listens to some old song from 6 years ago, she couldn't help but tap out the beat. The song, she noticed, was one from her tween phases. A pop icon perhaps?
She laughs at her description of the song; up beat, very cheesy, and coming from her tween phase. Liking it again would be very interesting. She sighs, why was she stupid enough not to think about listening to her I pod before? She glances back to the woman and tries to recall where she has seen her before. Giving up on it, she walks up to her. "Hi," she says softly, "This is sort of weird but have I met you before?"

Kristin looked up at the girl and smiled. "hello, i'm not sure? have you?" Kristin asked her smling. Her hand was resting on her stomach, she was really glad to be back in Albuquerque. Kristin had put out one album in her youth but only because she wanted to do it for Joey. She helped a friend out by giving her friend her label and calling it quits for the music business. She wanted Joey to have the singing life and she didn't want to intrude. Most everything she had done was about five years ago or from when she was really little until she graduated from amarican high school about five years ago. Kristin had already graduated from secondary school when she was about sixteen and worked on her career and the start of her family...until she had to break her fiance's heart. She really didn't like to tell people about her past with Marcus Kane, World renoun pollitical figure of the United Kingdom.

"Well that I really don't know." Chantal said as she sat down next to the lady. She contemplated on where she has seen her before. Former tutor? Nah, that can't be it. Baby sitter? Nope, she had a nanny 24/7. She sighs then gives up. "Oh well," she says, "I'm Chantal Parr." She stares at a nearby squirrel trying to climb up a tree. 'Oh snap out of it!' she thought, trying to get herself to stop staring at everything else. Which she always did when she was slightly embarrassed. She looks at the lady again and says, "Sorry for just walking up to you and asking. That was sort---was awkward."

Kristin giggled.. "it's alright i'm used to it...maybe i can help you remember." she thought for a moment, this girl had to be about seventeen or eighteen not much older than her. Kristin hadn't ever really looked her age. "well when i was in high school about five years ago i came out with a cd...just one because i wanted to do it for..." she struggled not likeing his nickname, she had always hated his nick name of course Kristin was much more propper than Joey anyways. "JP, wo is now my husband... i've been a dancer all my life, except when pregnant of course and i was a model my whole life up until i came to the united states and started school at East High Senior year. i've had so much press in my life that if someone like you walks up to me and asks me something it doesn't bother me at all." she smiled at the young girl. "By the way...i think i'm not to much older than you, i'm guessing your about seventeen or eighteen? i'm twenty-two and my name is Kristin Parker..it's very nice to meet you miss Parr"

"Joey Parker the singer," Chantal pursed her lips and began to think. This woman is his wife and she was a celebrity too. She looks at the woman again. "Um, you're Mrs. Parker. That's pretty awesome though." It bothered her very much. The feeling of ignorance was something Chantal hated. "I really know who you are but you're name escapes my tongue. I'm sorry" She smiled at the woman, she was glowing. "How long are you due?" Mrs. Parker was resplendent, "Are you having girls?" Chantal figured since women were mostly stunning when they have girls. "I'm sorry, if I'm badgering you with questions." She giggled nervously.

"yes thats him, and i'm just you're average clothes designer...not really that much of a celebrity...the only reason i have the title is because of Joey and my past life" Kristin chuckled a little. "yes thats me, and it's alright dear...my maiden name was Kristin Serratos" she looked at Chantal sweetly. "i'm about five and a half months in i'm due in October, and yes i'm having twin girls... my son Bryson is thrilled about being an older brother, he's only four though" Kristin giggled a bit. "no your alright, i don't mind...it's actually rather nice for you to keep me occuiped it helps me think a bit better for some reason"

Chantal glanced at Kristin. Now, her name rings a bell. But Chantal was not particularly sure."Ah, so you're a designer then. That's probably why I thought you were familiar." She beamed. "If you don't mind me asking, what is it like to work in fashion and maintain a family?" Chantal was curious, this woman was successful in business, married to a celebrity and was raising kids at the same time. She admired Kristin for what she's doing was quite tremendous. "Because, quite frankly I don't think I'll have kids till I become a professional dancer and maybe after that."

"i'm not just in fashion...i designed the remodel of the theatre at East High as well as their Gym and i designed my own house with help of course" she thought for a mement before answering her question. "in truth, it's hard to say..i mean my son stays with me while i work...i have a small studio in Brookyln but we live in Manhattan New York. I don't do that much traveling so in a way it's easy. But my husband does a lot more taveling and it's really hard on the family at times which makes things much more difficult. Every person is different and copes with work and a family differently. As much as i love the fashion business and desgning i love to dance more, it's what has really made everything i hoped for in my life come true" she explained to her as much as she could. "but from one dancer to another...don't give up your dreams.Just don't push yourself to hard because it's not worth it. We can't stand to be away from here and are really excited to be coming home. and if your going to be attending East High in the Fall, i might possibly be your dance coach"

"Well, going after the 'dream' isn't really my problem. I mean, I know where to try to go, what to do. It's just the handling all of it part is what's getting to me-- but I'll figure that part out eventually." Chantal replied to her. She looked shocked at what she had just heard. Kristin is going to be a teacher. This was more awkward than it previously was to say the least. Finally she says, "Oh, so you'd be replacing Mrs. Thompson?" She laughs inwardly, "That's great! At least, I know who'd be training me for my last year in high school!"

"your young you'll figure it out when it's time" she smiled at her. "i might, if we decide to move here after the babies are born...i really love this place and i already built a house but i love my little studio in new york and it's just going to be hard with both of us working. i might not be able to do it. the babies are going to need to be looked after and i don't know if i could do that but i guess i'll come to that road when i reach it. it would be exciting but my forte is mostly in ballroom dancing i do know the other dances and of course if i did become a teacher you'd have the most unique dance moves." she grinned happily thinking about dancing.

"That's exciting." Chantal says nodding at what the elder has informed her. As she has absorbed she had realized that she too needed to sort some things out. College applications, arrangements for living adaptations and such. She smirks, this year would be a challenge. She looks back to Kristin when she hears her talk about dance, "Oh ballroom dancing, that'll be interesting! I mostly do jazz and ballet though."
