Lisa Manoban is at the top of her career as an actress. She has everything that she had dreamed of. Everything was going perfect just like she had imagined but her perfect life didn't last long when someone framed her and she fell into a huge scanda...
"I guarantee you,Police are doing nothing!" Hyuna said, annoyed "They are just pretending to do their jobs and that's it"
"Calm down, hyuna" I sat beside her on the sofa "We will discuss this matter later on"
"What later on?" She spat "And why didn't you show them the text you've received?"
But this time,I didn't respond to her. Instead I gave her a tired look and leaned back against the sofa.
My head was throbbing since the moment I woke up at the morning. The stress I've gotten from overworking lately is unbearable. I thought I would be okay but I was clearly wrong.
My schedules are fully packed till next month.Even myself I didn't want to waste my time roaming around my apartment doing nothing anymore. Because of the scandal,I've been ranked second from the top at the brand reputation this month.
And this is the first time I've been ranked second after being in the top for almost three years. So my company were not that happy at all. Mr Han was pretty persistent when he told me last week that I need to get back in the top as soon as possible because brand reputation are important for winning the best actress award at the end of the year.
So for me, There will be no such thing called break for these couple of month or so until I finally get back in the top. And to do so,I need to work really hard to get in touch with my fans as much as possible.
But as hyuna was bickering about why didn't I showed the text that I got from some unknown number to the police,I finally interrupted her.
"Look,hyuna" I looked at her "I get it you're worried about me but you do know how this industry works,right?"
To that question,She stopped talking and furrowed her eyebrows.
"But-" She opened her mouth to say something but I shook my head.
"No,hyuna! You're not getting it" I said quietly "If I showed the text to the police then it will be all over the news the next morning. And that's what the unknown person wanted me to do"
"What do you mean?" Hyuna asked worried and I sighed.
"Whoever the person is behind this all framing thing wanted me to scare. He or she wanted to scare me and once again wanted me to frame with some allegations because if I showed the text to the police,they will surely publicised to the news channel and then some people will misunderstand me as an attention seeker and whoever this person is,will once again succeed"
I explained to her and her eyes widen with realisation.
"I didn't even thought of that!" She admitted "But whoever this is,They are doing such a sneaky thing to frame you!"
I didn't respond to her this time because I was already lost in my thoughts.
And the main question is who is he or she? Why is she/he even trying to frame me? Why is she/he trying so hard to frame me by the way? Is it worth it? What will she/he get it from it?
Those questions were wandering in my head and I sighed tiredly. So many things is going in my life and I wondered what else I had to lose to win this game?

I posted my photo on my Instagram before I get ready for today's show. I have been invited by the CEO of Louis Vuitton as the global ambassador for the brand for a ramp walk for the today's event.
This was my third time walking for the brand but for some reason,I feel nervous today when my stylist gave me the dress and I hurried to the changing room.
I think it was because all of the scandal thing I was being extra conscious about everything around me. I zipped up my dress and staring right at the mirror,I told myself that I can do it.
But it soon came crashing down,When I checked my Instagram and I saw hundreds of hate comments filled in my comment section.
Someone wrote "I hate seeing this girl getting all the recognition like bruh! She's so overrated!"
"Don't she feel embarrassed after the scandal?"
"Why don't you just die?"
"She's not even that pretty to be the global brand ambassador for the brand. Jenna is much more prettier than her"
"She is so ugly ! Go and kill yourself,drug addict!"
"I hate you"
It becomes difficult to breathe as I kept on reading the hate comments. I switch off my phone and walked out from the changing room to get my quick touch up.
What's the point to get here when all you get is hate from the people you thought as your fans? Should I just gave up and re-starts my life?
My mind was wandering through so much thing as my make up stylist was fixing my make up that I even didn't realize that she was saying something to me.
"Sorry? I didn't get you?" I asked warily and she giggled nervously.
"Oh! I was saying that you look very pretty!"
"Ah,thanks" I smiled at her but the smile came out too forced. Soon I found myself yet thinking about the hate comments but she continued.
"I'm a big fan of yours!" She said "I used to watch you in those movies and used to admire you. And now when I'm before you,I realised that you're so much more than just a pretty face"
Those words caught my attention and I glanced at her "No, I'm just a simple girl"
"No! You're not!" She beamed this time "It's not easy in this cruel industry to stick at the top but you did it! And I know you'll continue to achieve so many things with your hard work!"
"I admired you at first because of your pretty face but as I know you more,I realised that you're more than that. You are strong and an independent lady who never give up and find your way through any obstacles in your life and I also believe that no matter what,You'll never give up for your real fans!"
And she was right.
I had sacrifice so many things in my life just to get here where I am Standing right now and I was thinking of giving up? This is not me.
The real me will never even think of giving up.
And just like that,I realised that all I needed to do was to believe in myself and not to look up to people for their approval. Because at the end of the day, It's ME and MYSELF who is with me.
"Thanks for your kind words" I smiled genuinely this time at her and she blushed.
"Thank- I mean you're welcome!" She said nervously and I patted her back.
"And also,You did a great job with my make up" I said before walking away from the changing room with new confidence and dignity inside me.
Because tonight, it's show time.
