Capturing The Ice Queen's Heart

Chapter 10

Chapter 10

Cold

Jillian has withdrawn from competing in the Winter Olympics and asked to give her privacy while she's recovering. She sustained a Lisfranc fracture in her left foot from a head-on collision. The PSU waited for the surgery to be finished before they released the statement—gaining different reactions from the public, especially Jillian's supporters.

Nagbasa-basa rin ako ng articles para sa mas detalyadong impormasyon. Jillian was on her way home from a friend's party, and the driver, who was also her friend, was too drunk to even hit the brakes. Ang aksidente ay naganap 'di kalayuan sa club na pinanggalingan nila.

Sumandal ako sa swivel chair at saglit na pumikit. Everything hasn't sunk into me yet; it was so sudden. But I felt bad... That accident just ended Jillian's Olympic dream. For a minute, she was having the time of her life; and later on, her life changed drastically just like that.

Hinarap ko ulit ang desktop. From my main account, I switched to my page because it received a lot of notifications. Ang daming nag-comment sa most recent picture ko galing sa event kanina. There are hundreds of them...

What's happening?

It should've been you. What a loss for the Philippines 😒

I read the comment from a girl. What did she mean?!

I scrolled down and read more because I was really confused...

Jusq ano na mangyayari sa Pinas??! As if naman mananalo ka sa Olympics dzai!

Wala kaming mapapala sayo! Mapapahiya lang ang bansa dahil sure na kulelat ka #JillianTheBest

Mayaman ka lang pero wala kang talent 🤣

Plastik!!! Pangiti-ngiti ka pa kasama ni Jillian pero deep inside masaya ka sa nangyari sa kanya!!! 😈🤬

Maybe, it was your plan all along? 😤

Jillian ko 😭 Mas magaling pa si Jillian sayo eh 😭

SANA IKAW NA LANG NA AKSIDENTE 🙂

Tingnan mo sasakyan mo at baka ikaw naman ang sumunod 🤪

Okay! That was it! I stopped! Hindi ko na kayang basahin ang mga susunod dahil alam ko namang pare-parehas lang sila ng gustong iparating sa akin.

Bumitaw ako sa mouse at isinandal ang likod sa upuan. Using the back of my cold shaking hands, I wiped the tears on my face. Humikbi ako nang naalala 'yung mga sinabi nila na dapat ako na lang ang na-aksidente. I did nothing wrong. Why did they want to hurt me?

Mas lalong bumuhos ang mga luha ko nang na-realized na hindi nila ako titigilan ngayong ako na lang ang nag-iisang representative ng Pilipinas sa Winter Olympics. They'd be watching me from now on... would point out my mistakes to prove that Jillian's much better than me. And if I lose, they would rejoice and celebrate my defeat.

Sa takot na mabasa ng parents ko at mga nakakakilala sa akin ang comments na naroon, minabuti kong burahin ang post na iyon. I also turned the comment sections off for the rest of my posts—terrified that they would attack me again. Nag-decide rin ako na hindi 'wag munang i-open ang page ko.
