Domineering Night

Chapter 3: Press Conference

Jaire Kronos did what he promised. Kinabukasan matapos kong pumirma ng five years contract under Starlight Entertainment, he gave me a manager and an assistant.

My manager is Tiara Rivero, the golden manager who handles the famous F-Pop girl group, Dayamond. Kung sa larangan ng acting, the leading company was Stardust Media, in the world of music and idol group, the leading company was Starlight Entertainment.

I followed their arrangements. I got my dress in the following days and familiarized myself in the company. During this few days of interaction with my manager, I knew that she's not as scheming as Kassandra Sy.

The day of the press conference came. I wore a blue denim dress that the stylist picked for me and a pair of three inches silver pumps. My long hair was tied into a bun with silver ornaments on it as a hair jewelry.

It's time for my make up.

The professional makeup artist stared at me in daze. He glanced at Manager Rivero suspiciously.

"Ano pa'ng aayusin ko 'e may makeup na 'tong alaga mo?" Umawang ang mga labi ko nang marinig ko ang sinabi niya.

"Wala po akong makeup..."

He eyed me when I say that. He took a bottle of makeup remover and a cotton. He poured the makeup remover to the cotton before he rubbed it to my cheeks.

His lips parted. "You... how could it be? Hindi ka naman siguro nagpa-face tattoo and lip tattoo, right?"

Face and lip tattoo refers to the makeup that cannot be removed. It was extremely popular on Siertia and Fiorantine entertainment industry. But it has a negative effect, your face will itch and your lips will dry so you have to go to the dermatology clinic every twice a week.

My parent's genes were already extraordinary so I naturally didn't consider having a facial tattoo and lip tattoo. Moreover, it was extremely expensive!

I blinked and shook my head. "I didn't need to have facial tattoo and lip tattoo." Nahihiya kong sambit. I pinched my cheeks to show that it had no negative effects of having facial tattoo.

Binatukan naman siya ni manager Rivero. "Bakla ka!" She hissed impatiently. "Can't you see that she's all natural from her head up to her toes? Tingin mo kailangan niya ng mga 'yon? 'Pag na-late si Sai sa press conference mamaya, ipapalapa kita sa mga reporter!" She sneered.

"It's my first time meeting a girl who didn't go under the knife to be beautiful! You can't blame me!" He looked at me. "Bebe, naggu-gluta ka ba?" I shook my head.

"No..." I awkwardly answered.

Tumingin siya kay manager Rivero. "Bitch! Nakakuha ka ng dyamante! Oh my gosh! Why don't you hire me as her permanent makeup artist and stylist?"

I watch how manager Rivero's expression turned shock. "Are you serious, Rico? Tinanggihan mo 'ko sa Dayamond tapos magbo-volunteer ka kay Silence? Magugunaw na ba ang mundo?"

The makeup artist called Rico glared at her. "It's Rica!" He hissed. "Mas madaling ayusan si Silence kaysa sa mga alaga mo." He said as if it was a matter of fact.

My cheeks heated up. Nakakahiya...

"Namo! Sinasayang mo oras ng alaga ko!"

Thankfully, the makeup artist didn't bicker with manager Rivero. He started fixing my face, putting a light makeup on it. Fifteen minutes had passed and a satisfied reaction plastered on his eyes.

Admiration danced in his eyes as his mouth gaped in shock. "Tiara, I don't care! I wanna be her permanent makeup artist and personal stylist!" He blurted out.
