Maria Bella

"Good evening ladies and gentlemens. Tonight is the night when we will introduce our most newly collection of BELLA's." Pag-uumpisa ng emcee. Humugot naman ako ng malalim na hininga dahil sa kinakabahan ako. Hindi ito ang unang malaking event na dinaluhan ko but, this is the biggest auction for my jewelries and tonight is the night I will launch my new collection.

"Madam, you will be call in a second." Sabi sa akin ng isa sa mga staffs na kasama ko mula dito sa back stage. Tumango lang naman ako sa kanya habang inaayos ng iba pang staffs ang suot ko at ang itsura ko. I am wearing red fromal tube jumpsuit. Kung dati ay hindi ako nakakapag-suot ng mga ganitong klase ng damit ngayon ay natuto na akong baguhin ang sarili ko. Maging ang pag-susuot ng napakataas na heels ay nagagawa ko na ngayon. And my hair? If I can't comb it right before, this is a silky straight blonde now.

"Madam you should go up on stage."

"Oh o-okay."Sagot ko dito dahil hindi ko na naintindihan na tinawag na ang pangalan ko.

Kahit na kinakabahan ay lumabas na ako ng stage. The moment I step my feet on the stage, the clicks of the countless cameras from the reporters and all the media was automatically starts. I force a smile as I walk.

"Good evening ladies and gentlemen. I am so grateful that all of you is here to see my newest collection. I hope that before this night end, you will love my jewelries for the sake of the charity. I hope everyone will help me to achieve my goal tonight. Thank you and please enjoy the night." I said before I heard their claps for me. Mabilis naman akong bumaba ng stage para maumpisahan na ang fashion show.

"You're nervous?" Natatawang tanong sa akin ni Cohen nang makababa ako ng stage.

"Just a little bit. I don't know but I am really nervous. Sana maging successful ang event."

"Kelan ba nag-fail ang event mo? It's always been successful since the day one. Hmnnn, maybe my wife forgot that she is now one of the most successful jewelry designer." Sabi sa akin ni Cohen. Napangiti naman ako dahil sa sinabi nyang 'yon.

"Hi Mr.Galvez nice to see you here." Bati ni Cohen sa isang businessman. Nagpaalam naman ako sa kanya para makaharap pa ang ilang bisita hanggang sa may mabangga akong babae.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean t-" Naputol ang sasabihin ko nang bigla kong makita kung sino ang babaeng nabangga ko.

"Long time no see Bella."

"Ms R-Rosian."

"Oh come on Bella. Don't call me Ms. Nakakahiya naman baka may makarinig. Big time ka pa naman na ngayon. And I can see that you have a better life. Successful and happy I guess." Sabi nito sa akin habang nangingiti at inilibot pa ang paningin nya sa buong lugar.

"Thank you for coming. Please enjoy the night." Sagot ko lang sa kanya at saka ko sya tinatinalikuran pero napatigil lang ako nang marinig ko ang sinabi nya.

"Let's talk." She said. Napaharap naman ako sa kanya dahil sa sinabi nya saka ako ngumiti.

"I'm sorry but I need to accompany them. Maybe next time." I said saka ko itinuro sa kanya ang mga bisita.

"Don't you want to hear something about him?" Parang tinakasan ako ng kulay sa sinabi nyang 'yon. Hindi ko alam pero natakot agad ako sa sinabi nyang 'yon.

"Who's him?" Pagpapatay malisya ko sa sinabi nya but she sarcastically laugh at me and crossed her arms in front of me.

"Don't act like a dumb Bella. I know that you know who's I'm talking about."

"I'm sorry but I already forgot who's your talking about."

"All these years you become dumber and dumber. And now, you are the dumbest person I've ever met."
