Annie's Point of View

I left my seat as I enthusiastically skipped my way to the door. I looked at the monitor and saw the delivery man waiting patiently for me to open it.

I opened the door and greeted him as I ardently signed the papers. He gave me a small box before leaving.

As I got the package, I locked the door and ran towards the living room just to plop back down the sofa and open the package using a knife.

When I opened the package, I smiled widely as I saw the dvd stored in a hard container. It has been several months since our last filming ended and the director sent me this package to show me the end product.

In those several months, Armin has been visiting my place every twice a week to hang out with me. We would usually talk but there are some times that we have sex as well. I slowly got used to his size and I can now ride his dick and get laid without crying out loud. Most of the time we just cuddle. There are times that all we needed was silence and rest.

He has been busy lately, working on his new book. He won't tell me about the details within it so I just let him be.

I slid the dvd into the player and waited excitedly for it to play. Usually, the movie would be emailed to us. But there are instances that our accounts get hacked, resulting in movies to get leaked before the release date so the safest way was to send a dvd with a different container through a trusted delivery service.

Before the movie started playing, I turned off my phone's notification to avoid any disturbances as I focused on it. This was the usual me, judging the own movie I filmed in. I want to see how much I improved and how much I should improve into my acting. I didn't want everyone to see me as someone 'just famous' and overrated. I want everyone to see me for my own skills, that I deserve all the attention I'm getting from the public.

Surprisingly, it wasn't what I expected it to be. I acted differently and I felt the character I acted out in a whole different level. The emotions I conveyed into my acting has managed to touch myself from within. The movie got me crying just as how the book did.

I opened my phone just to be bombarded with several notifications. I prioritized Armin first but he didn't reply to my last sent message since morning.

I immediately answered Historia's call when I saw her name on my phone pop up with my ring tone playing.

"Annie! Where are you right now?"

"I'm at home. Why do you sound like that? Is everything alright?" I asked. Her voice was shaking and I could hear several voices in the background.

"Come here at our company's building. Your manager is looking for you. And please take the back door when you leave your condo. And...Please don't open your social media accounts please." She said before ending the call.

I stared at my phone, still confused of what is happening. Why can't I check out my own accounts?

I opened twitter to see who's on the trending list. I squinted my eyes when I saw the top trending hashtag at the moment.

#CHEATERS - 2.58M tweets

I pressed it and as I saw the posts under it, I felt like my world just collapsed.

I went to google to look at the trending topics and it was also the same.

3   Christa Lenz Speaks Up

My eyebrows furrowed as I clicked on Christa's trending video.

"I'm so heartbroken right now...I didn't know the reason why he left me. He just became so cold towards me. Then after five years of our relationship, he called it quits. I didn't know what went wrong but the pictures right now shows it all. I was wrong to trust you, Armin. And I'm mostly disappointed at my friend, Annie Leonhart for stealing my boyfriend from me despite her knowing about our relationship. The days I worked hard on my music, were the days you two stabbed me from my back. I was okay with Armin breaking up with me because I know that I had flaws...But learning about the news...That he cheated on me while we were still in a relationship...That he was already seeing Annie...Breaks my heart...*sobs* I'm sorry I can't take it anymore."

My hands turned into ball of fists as tears frustratedly ran down my cheeks. I wasn't sad nor happy. I was mad. I was extremely angry from her immature tactic to destroy me and Armin just because she didn't get what she wanted. A fucking creep that lies to the public just for her selfish reasons.

I slammed my phone down to my couch before changing my clothes and wearing my disguise. I looked at the view outside my condo and saw a lot of people squeezing each other and waiting for me to come out.

I quickly went to the underground parking and went inside the car to go to our company's building. I knew how my manager would give me another earful. I just want to talk to Armin right now but he hasn't replied to me for hours now. I'm getting worried.

As I got out of the van, several people tried to grab my hair and scratch my arms. Some even threw eggs at me and some threw very hard objects that caused my skin to bleed.

"YOU FUCKING WHORE HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO CHRISTA?"

"WHAT A BOYFRIEND-STEALING BITCH I REGRETTED THE FACT THAT I STANNED YOU!"

"FUCKING HOME WRECKER JUST DIE ALREADY!"

"YOU DON'T DESERVE BERTHOLDT AT ALL!"

"YOU SHOULD'VE BEEN GRATEFUL TO BERTHOLDT FOR HIM RAISING YOUR POPULARITY BUT INSTEAD YOU CHEAT ON HIM YOU FUCKING BITCH!"

I bit my lip as I walked passed them. Even though I had body guards beside me, people outnumbered them and successfully inflicted pain on me.

As I went inside the company, Historia looked at me with pitiful eyes. It was weird. In moments like this I should be crying. But why do I feel empty?

As soon as I got inside my manager's office, she gave me a huge slap on the face. It was so hard that the sound amplified within the room yet I couldn't seem to feel the pain.

"If you were on your right mind you wouldn't go to his apartment, Annie! If you just stopped your urges and stopped being such a flirt this wouldn't happen! You ruined your own career and your bringing me down with you, bitch." She yelled at me and was about to hit me again when Historia stopped her.

"M-Ma'am I think that's enough." Historia muttered.

"The company wants you out of here! Right now Annie Leonhart, people from here doesn't want to see you ever again. You keep on staining the company's reputation! GET OUT!" She yelled again but I couldn't seem to hear her. I only felt Historia pull me out of the room and walk me out of the building, towards the car, being mobbed again by another angry crowd.

As we went inside the car, Historia tried her best to clean me up and wipe the blood from my skin. She didn't speak and utter a single word but her actions told me that she cared about me.

I couldn't seem to focus on anything. I lost my job, I ruined Armin's career because I was being selfish, and everyone hates me.

I drowned on my own thoughts again as I stared at the outside full of people who wants me to die.

At this moment, I felt nothing at all. I was hurt countless of times today, physically and emotionally but I just couldn't seem to feel the pain.

I don't know what to feel anymore.
