Ali woke up when she heard a knock from her room's window. Mabilis siyang tumingin roon at bumungad sakaniya ang isang ibon na may dala dalang white envelope. Malamang pinapadalhan siya ngayon ng mensahe. Mabilis siyang tumayo mula sa kama at pinagbuksan ang ibon, kinuha niya kaagad sa mga labi nito ang white envelope.
"Thank you" pagpapasalamat niya rito at umalis naman kaagad ang ibon. Bumalik naman si Ali sa kama niya at umupo tsaka binuksan ang mensahe para sakaniya.
Dearest Ms. Alina Lu,
This is a letter of invitation for you to join the grandparty tonight @The Grand Hall of the Deities, 6PM. We are expecting your presence and show your modeling talent this evening to everyone. Thank you very much and have a great day of preparation.
Respectfully yours,
Viper.Napanganga naman sa gulat si Ali, wait..the great Viper is inviting her to the Grand party this evening?! Hindi ba siya nagkakamali ng tingin? Tinignan niya ulit kung para kanino ang mensahe pero pangalan niya talaga ang nakasulat! Hindi siya makapaniwala na at the age of 28 makakapunta na siya sa Grand Party for the first time! Omg!
Sino ba naman kasi ang hindi matutuwa? She had been waiting for this for a very very long time, it is her dream to attend such party since lahat ng makakapangyarihan sa mundo nila ang pupunta sa nasabing party. Such as the rulers of Verendus and Zircon Kingdoms, the famous Scarlet Benitez who's also a Witch princess of another kingdom, of course the other rulers of other kingdoms and Island as well, tapos syempre ang kinahihintay niya na makilala ang Apat na mailap na Deities sa isla nila. Tsaka hindi lang siya sigurado kung pupunta din ba ang Gods and Goddesses na mas pinaka makapangyarihan sa mundo nila. But she doubt na pupunta ang mga ito.Nag simula nang mag ayos ng sarili si Ali at naligo na rin sa banyo para fresh.
Well anyway, back to Viper. From what she heard, Viper is the right hand man of the Deity of the Wind. Kilala si Viper bilang 'boses' ng mga Deity. Hindi nga kasi nag papakita ang mga ito kaya si Viper ang nag sasabi ng mga gustong ianunsyo ng mga Deities. Well, hindi naman ganon ka nangenge alam ang mga deities sa nangyayare sa mga buhay nilang pinamumunuan ng mga ito, madalas normal lang talaga ang mga buhay nila pero minsan kapag may paparating na delubyo ay pinapasabi ito kay Viper at inaanunsyo sa buong isla.The reason why she became a model is to feed her curiosity na makilala ang mga Deities. Those who have talents and number 1 in entertainment world ang iniimbitahan sa Grand Party, last year ay ang kilalang Classical Singer sa isla nila, and for this year ay siya naman, the #1 famous model in the island. =))) Alam ni Ali na napakababaw ng rason niya why she became a model pero there's something strong in her na nag sasabi na she should meet the deities. Wala lang, she just follow what she feels.
Nang makatapos na siyang mag bihis at mag ayos, she looked herself at the mirror and smilled the way she looks. She's wearing a fit silver knee length gown paired with silver shoes and black purse as well as she curled her hair nicely. When she's satisfied ay lumabas na siya ng condo at dumiretso sa elevator. Mag isa lang siya pumasok kaya hindi hassle para sakaniya na mag travel. She tap the location she wanted to go and a few seconds, tineleport na siya ng elevator papunta sa entrance gate ng Grand hall. Basic. Ganiyan kadaling pumunta sa lugar na gusto mong puntahan kung ang mundo mo ay may kakaibang kapangyarihan.
Anyway, pumunta na siya kaagad sa guard na nag babantay. Strikto itong nakatingin sakaniya at pinigilan siyang pumasok ng gate. "Invitation please, Ma'am."
Mabilis naman na kinuha ni Ali ang invitation letter niya sa purse niya at tinignan naman ito ng Guwardiya. After a few minutes ay tumingin ito sakaniya. "Si Sir Viper pala ang nag imbita saiyo. Anyway, Ma'am...pinabibilin po ni Sir na dumiretso kayo kaagad sa private house sa left side ng function hall. Nandoon po si Sir, inaantay ka." Kulang ang gulat sa sinabi nito sakaniya, wow? Sino ba naman siya para antayin ng isang Viper Menodas? Something is really going on. Pero kung ano man iyon, this might be a great opportunity for her!
"Ok, thank you very much." Ngumiti naman siya sa guard at hinayaan na siya nitong pumasok. Eventually, nakarating na rin siya sa lokasyon na tinuro nito, she opened the door and went inside. Bumungad naman sakaniya ang isang private living room kung saan tahimik pero engrande ang disenyo.
"You're here" nabaling naman ang tingin niya sa lalakeng naglalakad papunta sakaniya. The guy looked so handsome and at the same time, he is walking like a model holding a wine.
Kung hindi siya nagkakamali, si Viper ito."Hi Sir, good evening. It's nice to meet you po, I'm Alina Lu." Napatigil naman ito sa harapan niya at tinignan siya nito ng malalim na ikipinagtaka ni Ali, he look so serious and at the same time, mukhang inoobserbahan siya nito..
Nagulat naman siya ng bigla nalang ito ngumiti ng matamis sakaniya, ok? What kind of personality does he have na parang kanina, napaka intense ng tingin sakaniya tapos ngayon parang normal nalang.
"Sir? Hahaha ang formal mo naman Ali. Don't call me sir! Just call me, Viper. It's nice to meet you too!" Masiglang sabi nito sakaniya at inilapag sa katabing glass table ang baso ng wine nito saka siya hinawakan sa kamay na ikina piksi at gulat ni Ali.Napatigil naman si Viper at napatingin sakaniya, hihilain siya sana nito kanina but she reacted that way.
"Oh... I'm sorry. That was rude of me to hold your hand right away. I'm really sorry." Binitawan naman nito ang kamay niya at binigyan siya ng apologetic na ekspresyon.Nahiya naman si Ali sa naging reaksyon niya. Medyo nanibago lang siya siguro because this man is talking casually and acting friends with her. Napapaisip din siya on what his intention is pero ramdam naman ni Ali na safe ito at kumportable lang ito sakaniya, why not give this person a chance to express himself right?.
"No, sorry. I was just shock about how friendly you were to me." Nahihiyang pag amin ni Ali kay Viper na kaagad naman na tumawa.
"Oh. Sorry about that, I know kakakilala palang natin sa personal pero kumportable na kase ako saiyo." Nakangiting sabi nito sakaniya. Wow this man is really honest, mukhang magkakasundo silang dalawa. The great Viper whom they see in magical visions who is serious everytime they see him is now being a warm person infront of her. To break the ice between them, tatanungin niya nalang kung bakit siya pinapunta dito.
"Viper, sorry to ask, pero bakit mo pala ako pinapunta dito?" Kinuha naman nito ang glass of wine niya at uminom bago sinagot ang tanong.
"Well, I know sinulat ko sa letter na 'to show your talent in modeling' pero actually, I just wanted to invite you over. Since you're the most famous model in our island, I just want to meet you in person. I'm actually one of your fans." Diretso at nakangiting sagot nito sakaniya na ikinagulat naman ni Ali.
"Really?! I'm so honored."
"You should be...joke. hahaha I want you to enjoy the party tonight and Hopefully, all your hardworks will paid off because of this party." Nakangiting sabi nito sakaniya.
"I will surely enjoy this party, Viper. Matagal ko nang gustong pumunta sa ganitong party. Thank you for inviting me." Mukhang nagkakasundo na sila ni Viper. Which is great, kase more chances of exploring the place and to know more about the Deities.
