Tala sat on the window sill, her legs tucked under a blanket, Tate on her lap as she had a cup of coffee in one hand and a book on the other.

Although she didn't progress in the book, she just reread the same line over and over again. The line where Hermione Granger and Harry Potter argued in the Hogwarts library in the book, Goblet of Fire.

She tried to play it cool, it had happened multiple times in the time that her and Karl had been going back and forth online. Although it had gotten worse when she uploaded that photo with Grey.

Maddy had to persuade her all day before she could post it. She was scared and she admitted that. She didn't wanted to be judged but she could only admit that meeting Karl, Jojo, Taylor, Maddy, Katie and the others had taught her to love her skin.

Sinag was thankful when she noticed the change in her sister, she was more confident, more into herself than ever before. But these stupid people online who didn't know any better had ruined it.

Everyone had tried to contact the eldest Reyes but she had turned off her phone, she was supposed to be modding today for Karl but Jojo said she should stay away from the internet for a while.

It was different this time, the fans had opted to go to not only her dms but also her cousins and her aunts business email.

So there she was, watching the rain fall as she sipped her coffee as she tried to get pass Hermione hitting Harry with a parchment on the head. Sinag sat on the sofa, silently glancing between her and her phone.

Jojo and Maddy had been messaging her on how she is but the youngest Reyes didn't know really. Her sister was always closed off when it came to negative emotions but she always knew when something was wrong. But this time she couldn't read her. And it pains her that she couldn't, she was scared, terrified even that Tala believed what the people was saying about her.

So despite the fact that Karl was streaming she messaged him.

Karl furrowed his eyebrows, the game he was playing with Dream and the rest of the crew boys paused. Even before Karl could see what it was all about, it seems that the chat knew what it was already.

The moment Karl opened his Luna's instagram, her blood boiled, his ear reddened, his hand gripped his phone tight, eyebrows furrow, lips formed into a scowl and when he looked back up the camera, chat knew.

"Karl?" Dream asked cautiously. He had opened his friend's stream when he didn't respond when they were calling out for him.

Karl breathed in and out deeply. When he finally got the words in his head, he turned off his phone and scoffed. The other crew boys tensing at the sound.

"You I always appreciate you guys. How you support me, how you guys do everything you can to give back what I give to you but sometimes you guys are just too much." He said, trying to calm himself down.

He sighed and rubbed his face, he frowned as he imagined what Tala could be thinking at that moment, "You have to remember that people you see in screen whether you support them or not, are still people so are the people they are with. You can hate on me all you like but leave her alone." He said coldly.

Karl didn't even look at chat, "I don't care that you guys hate on me or you blame me about Mr. Beast and so on, but don't ever bring up the people I care about in this." He said sternly.

"Tala is her own person, she can change whenever she wants and I adore her for that. She grows out of her comfort zone which you don't know about because she doesn't need to say anything about it." He continued as he glanced at his phone.

Lighting up because of the amount of encouraging texts he was receiving from their friends. "Tala is an artist and if you were really into her art or a supporter of her you would know that she now has a website where she shares commissions and art designs. Clearly most of you don't know her."

Karl looked at chat for the first time, Jojo and Taylor changing it to subscriber only chat. He sighed again, "Look I appreciate the lot of you, but Tala is one of the most important people in my life and if you can't accept that then maybe you aren't really a real supporter of mine. If you can't accept the fact that Tala is a part of my life and a part of me then maybe you should leave." He said.

Clear and audible gasps were heard from discord and Karl shook his head. "You don't apologize to me, you apologize to Tala" he said as his heart ached.

He clenched his eyes shut as he imagined what Tala would be going through at that moment. That moment when he would much rather run to her but he knew he had to say something now rather than just leaving it at just.

"Her name may mean star in Filipino but she's my moon, my Luna. She lit up the moments where I felt darkness, I just thought you should all know how important she is to me. Just in hopes that if you really support me you'd understand."

And with one look at the camera, Karl finished his stream leaving the viewers and his friends in shock.
