*Pippas POV*
I was standing in my dressing room looking at myself in the mirror, I was fully in costume for the opening number. I tried to calm my breath, but it was hard, my Broadway debut was no small thing.
I was so incredibly excited as well as being absolutely terrified. But my thoughts were interrupted when I heard someone start open the door.
"Ella es muy nerviosa tan por favor no hágase demasiado excitado alrededor de ella." She heard Lin whisper to someone but due to the fact I don't speak Spanish I had no idea what he was saying. "she is very nervous so please don't get too excited around her."
( Ruff Translation: "she is very nervous so please don't get too excited around her." — "I don't want to freak her out too much." )
"bien, bien, lo consigo pero usted prometió que yo podría encontrarla. tan déjeme encontrarla." I heard a woman whisper back to him.
( Ruff Translation: "okay, okay, I get it but you promised I could meet her. So let me meet her." )
"Bien, vamos entonces." Lin whispered before he opened the door, I turned from the mirror to look at the door.
( Ruff Translation: "Good, come on then" )
When I had fully turned I saw Lin, in his costume for the opening number and two older people.
After a second I realised they were his parents. He brought his parent to meet me, why did he bring his parents to meet me?
"Hey pip." He greeted softly, as if he knew I would be too excited about this. Not that I wouldn't want to meet them, but now wasn't the time, plus we technically weren't even 'official'.
"Hi." I greeted with a small smile and a small wave.
"Pip, I want you to meet my parents." He said moving a bit, and I stepped forward in front of them.
"Hello, I'm Phillipa Soo, it's a pleasure to meet you Mr. And Mrs. Miranda." I said a bit stiffly, due to how nervous I was.
"Hello Phillipa, it's very nice to meet the sweet girl that makes our son so happy." His mother greeted holding our hand for me which a took shaking her hand. "And please call me Luz."
"And call me Luis, Mr. Miranda makes me feel old." His dad- Luis said extending his hand to me, which is when I let go of Luz's and took his.
"So, are you excited about the show tonight?" Luz asked once I pulled my hand away from Luis.
"Yeah, definitely this is probably one of the most exciting moments of my life." She told her. "But I'm still very nervous."
"Oh, well I'm sure you'll be great." Luis assured me. "And from what I hear Lin say about you, there is no way you could mess up." Which makes me smile and when I look over at Lin I can see him blushing a bit.
"Okay, okay... well I should get you two to your seats.." Lin started and Lins parents laughed a bit.
"I think I embarrassed him.." Luis started. "I didn't know I could any more."
"Well I guess we'll have to go now.." Luz told me. "Good luck dear." And as soon as she said that my mouth dried.
Like most actors are known for, I am very superstitious. So, though it was an innocent 'good luck' it freaked me out immediately.
"Luz I think you're supposed to say, break a limb or something." Luis told her.
"Oh, right.. it's uh, break a leg dear." She said with a smile, and I just nodded.
I watched as they left, trying to calm myself down, because there should be no reason to worry. Everything should be fine and I shouldn't be this superstitious.
"Come on Phillipa, just chill, nothing bad is going to happen.." I tell myself as I began to pace.
A few minutes later I heard someone come followed by a:
"Pippa, sweetie, why are you pacing?" I heard Lin ask.
"I'm trying not to freak out." I told him as I continued to pace.
"Is it Because of what-"
"Yeah..." I said with a sigh. "I know it's stupid but I just-" I couldn't help but groan.
"Phillipa." He started moving in my way, putting his hands on my shoulders. "Everything is going to be just fine."
"I know it's just- what if it does go wrong-?"
"You will be perfect, everyone will be fine, and all we can do is hope it's good." He told me kissing my cheek, and a nodded.
"Yeah... I know.." I said with a small smile.
"Are you gonna be okay love?" He asked me.
"Yeah." I told him with a small nod. "I'll be okay Lin."
"Okay, Good." He said pecked my lips quickly before leaving my dressing room.
Luckily Lin was completely right about the show. Everyone got in the right places, no one fell off the stage or forgot any lines.
It was a pretty amazing show, and it was extremely exhilarating and exciting.
But the entire night wasn't perfect, no it was far from that. Something bad did happened.
