Chapter 1
Napaigtad ako nang marahas na bumukas ang pinto ng dressing room. Nakita ko ang galit na mukha ng manager ko habang nagmamartsa palapit sa'kin. Binaba ko ang suklay at nakangising humarap sa kaniya pero hindi niya man lang na-appreciate ang ganda ko ngayong gabi, agad niya na akong sininghalan. "What the hell did you do, Leigh!? What did you do this time, huh!? Did you just add oil to the fire!?" Napapikit ako nang dumagundong ang malalim niyang boses sa buong dressing room. Parang umatras tuloy ang dila ko at hindi agad nakasagot kahit na ang totoo, kanina ko pa pina-practice ang sasabihin. Patakbong pumasok sina Bridgette at Yael at agad siyang hinawakan sa braso. "Calm down, Mr. Kim. Let her explain, please. Maybe that wasn't really her," Bridgette said calmly. My extremely mad manager glared at her, she shrinked back to where her original place was. "That wasn't her!? Calm down? Are you serious? Are you blind!? She just made herself the most viral person in the world! She's destroying her image that we all helped to build!" Malakas na singhal ng aking manager. Umayos ako ng upo sa swivel chair at hinanda na ang sariling magpaliwanag. Pero hindi pa ako nakapagsalita, bumaling na agad sa'kin si manager Kim. "Just what the hell did you do, Reign Leigh!? Viral ka na nga dahil sa scandal video mo, viral ka pang nambasag-ulo sa bar! At talagang pinakita ko sa media at fans ng dalawang 'yon! Ngayon, kilala ka na ng lahat na bitter ex girlfriend ng isang arising actor at envious best friend ng isang international model!" Napapikit ako nang marinig ang sermon niya. Agad bumalik sa'kin ang problema at nakaka-frustrate na impact ng kalukuhan ng ex boyfriend ko at ng matalik kong kaibigan. Those traitors, they really teamed up to drag me down into dirt. Nagngitngit ako sa galit at tumayo para magpaliwanag. "That wasn't my scandal, I have no scandal!" Iritado kong sabi at gigil na umirap. "They faked it! They're taming up to drag me down because they're bitter of my success! Tama lang ang ginawa ko, manager Kim. I wont just sit back and watch them destroy me!" "Tingin mo hindi pagsira sa sarili mong reputasyon ang ginawa mo ngayon?" Balik niyang asik at pinanliitan ako ng mata. "Pumunta ka talagang bar at sinadya ang kaibigan mo?" "She's not my friend anymore! She was never. She just used me for her career, wala siyang utang na loob! Nagawa pa akong traidorin!" "I don't care, Leigh! I don't care if you hate her now. Pero sana hindi mo na sinugod, lalo lang lumala ang gulo at ikaw na naman ang lumalabas na masama! Sa mismong birthday celebration pa ng Blaire na 'yon, ngayon lahat na masama ang tingin sa'yo!" "Then alright, masama na ako! Hindi naman ako mabait, Jaden. They hurt me, they betrayed me! At least, even in this tiny thing I can make her feel how miserable I was!" Sigaw ko sa inis at napapamewang. Malakas na bumuntong-hininga ang dalawa kong assistant at matabang siyang tumawa. He's as frustrated as I was, but the thing is, I felt a little satisfied now knowing that I ruined Blaire Anthony's birthday and put bruises on her ugly and annoying face. Kulang pa nga 'yon sa lahat ng ginawa niya. I helped her, I helped her reach her dreams and I even made her as famous as me. But after she reached all of those, she just suddenly showed her real color. She snaked my boyfriend that is now my ex, and the worse thing? They tamed up for my downfall. They made a fake scandal video of me and Rio himself. I was a w***e in the video and I was real embarrassed. Sa lahat ng ginawa nila sa'kin, walang-wala lang ang ginawa kong paglampaso sa pagmumukha niya kanina. "Mas lalo ka lang mapapasama, Leigh. Worse thing is, they're going to file a case against you!" "I don't care, Jaden Kim. Mag-file sila, sasagutin ko at ako mismo ang magpapatunay na inosente ako at hindi ako iyong nasa video." "Paano mo gagawin 'yan? May evidence ka? Sige nga! Sana kasi hindi ka na tumakas sa security mo at hinayaan mo na kami ang gumawa ng paraan. Ngayon naman, mas dumami pa ang bumabatikos sa'yo. May video pa kung paano mo binugbog ang walang hiyang Blaire na 'yon!" "Tingin ko hindi rin siya makakauwi ngayon sa condo niya," singit ni Yael. "Maraming media sa labas, marami ring antifans niya ang nakaabang. "Paano na ngayon 'yan? Itutuloy pa ba natin ang interview niya tungkol sa scandal video na 'yon?" Tanong ni Bridgette. Nasapo ko ang nuo at napaupo ulit. May interview nga pala ako mamaya pero tingin ko hindi na talaga ako makakadalo. Biglang dumating ang secretary ko kaya mas lalo kaming naging tensiyonado. I wonder kung ano na namang masamang balita ang dala niya? "What is it, Lex?" "Manager Kim, nag-cancel po ang limang company sa contract nila kay miss Leigh. Iyong endorsement po." Parang mahihimatay bigla ang manager ko sa narinig, nakagat ko ang labi at hinilot ang sentido. Hindi ko man aminin pero bahagya rin akong nagsisisi sa ginawa ko kanina. Ngayon mas nadagdagan ang problema namin at malaki ang mawawala sa'min. Bagong contract pa naman iyong lima na tungkol sa endorsement. "M-Magka-cancel? Pero napirmahan na 'yong kontrata!" "Ayaw na po nila magpatuloy dahil sa issues ni miss Leigh. Saka hindi pa naman po nasisimulan ang projects." Nanghihinang napaupo si Jaden sa sofa at nasapo ang nuo, tumayo ako at lumapit sa kaniya. Pinaypayan siya ni Bridgette kahit may aircon naman kami. "Oh my goodness..." Usal niya. Napakagat-labi ako at hinagod siya sa likuran para pakalmahin. "This is crazy, why do I have a hunch that it's not just them? Baka may mag-back out na namang project mo." "Then let them pull back, I don't care, Jaden." Napatingin siya sa'kin at napailing, nanlulumong sumandal siya at pinatigil ako sa paghagod sa kaniyang likuran. Ngumuso ako at bumuntong-hininga. "Madaling sabihin pero mahirap gawin, mahirap bumawi. Kailangan mo magpabango sa madla para at least kahit sirang-sira ka na, may susuporta pa rin sa'yo." "You sounds like a senator," sabi ko. "I don't need to do that, if my fans want to support and trust me, they would without ado. Iyong naniniwala lang sa'kin, saka alam ng modeling agencies na dinaanan ko kung anong klaseng tao ako. Alam nilang magaling talaga ako." "Over confident ka lang, Leigh. Hindi pa rin malilinis ang pangalan mo, mae-stress ka lang lalo." "Ang daming posts tungkol sa ginawa mong panunugod kanina, Leigh," singit ni Bridgette, ngayon nakaharap na sa screen ng phone niya. "Sobrang daming fans ni Blaire ang pinagmumura ka na, kahit fans ng ex mo." "Iyong hayop niyang ex," may galit na sabat ni Jaden. "Nag-comment din siya, actually." "Ayokong marinig, ah. Wala na akong pakialam sa kaniya, sa kanila. Hayaan mo silang magsama, papatunayan ko sa kanilang hindi sila kawalan." Hinding-hindi ako aatras, hindi nila ako mapapabagsak. That jerk, Rio is taking his revenge on me because he knew, I never loved him as he loved me. He's the real bitter among us. He just want to prove to himself that he's better off me. But it's always the opposite. Biglang dumating ang isa sa security team ko at kahit hinihingal agad itong nagsalita. "We have bad news, sir, ma'am. Blaire Anthony's fans and some individual reporters are trying to break through us. They're eager to enter the building for an interview." "What!?" Napatayo si Jedan at nagpuyos sa galit. "They're crossing the line, that can't be! Do your best to shove them out of here! We really need to fix this as soon as possible." "Anong gagawin natin? Gusto ko ng umuwi at magpahinga kahit saglit," ungot ko. Napahilamos siya sa mukha at natigilan, nang tignan ako ay seryuso na siya. "I have a plan." "What is it?" "You need to go home." "Oo nga, sa condo ko." "No, I mean, in your own home. In the Philippines, Leigh. In our country."
