I never wanted to become a star or whatever it is , I knew my limits. I am a very ordinary girl and have very few people around me. Big parties , shimmering nights were never my thing until - I met V.
You must be wondering who's V , where from this character came and lots of things . "V" aka Veronica Young, the global sensation, the renowned model from France. Head to toe she's always covered with Louis Vuitton, Dior , Channel etc. The entire nation is crazy over her. What she wears , what she eats, where she goes, whom she meets everything becomes the talk of the town.
I on the other hand, a complete nobody even my classmates don't really know my name. What I wear , or eat or whom I meet nobody gives a damn. To be honest, I am a bit jealous of some girls of my age who steps out of the glamourous cars at the university premises while I get down from the loud , crowded buses all messed up. But again , I know my reality and I also know I'll turn the tables on my own. As I already said earlier that I know my limit but also I am reckless.
I guess things would have been a lot more different if I wouldn't have been reckless that night also and probably there would've been no such chapter like this to read for y'all.
Don't you think -?Dad is South Korean and mom Italian , so you know fashion is so into my blood but again I am a 'not so lucky' one. Well, I have a best friend who is not so dead like me but somehow we share the same brain cells since birth . He has always been my lucky charm. His name is Derek - well another important character of my story hehe ...
He is a rich brat but had always been the sweetheart to me. From my middle school to my university the only constant I have in my life is none other than him. I would sound too optimistic here but seriously if I am not yet lost in this crazy world is only because I had Derek by my side till the end.
It was his birthday bash yehyep one of the glamorous birthday in town. Afterall Mr.Mark Lee who is his father, gotta flaunt his wealth somehow or the other then why not in only son's birthday. Every Time since childhood this particular day gives me cramp in my stomach and ache in my lill head... yes not butterflies. From one month prior my mind starts joking wimme as in what to wear, what to gift! Though I'm the shameless one here, who still manage to pull up a sweatshirt, a bottom from somewhere inside the wardrobe and cover my body and pick up something on my way to the venue. Since everyone in his family is aware of me and my craziness so they have literally gave up on me.
"Ya, can't you wear something decent at least for once in my birthday" - derek came towards me and pulled my t-shirt. "No I can't, cause you are not worth those shits" - I smiled at him while giving him his birthday present and don't ask me please what was the gift. "Okhay, so enjoying the party birthday boy?" - I kinda teased him looking at his face which was crumpled cause of tiredness and boredom. "Come I'll show you a special mannequin my dad got me this time" - every year Mr.Lee would invite all his connections from the glam world and under world as well! Some popular faces covered with expensive masks of makeup. This time also there were some popular faces but the most dazzling was of her's . The beauty she was, forget about men me being a girl was stuck in her lill face which was smiling bright making the dull party glow.
Derek took me to her , o-o she was none other than V. I knew her I mean everyone knew her , she was looking stunning I was mesmerized the moment I heard her voice from so close.
"H-hi" - I stammered a bit , I don't understand the heck becomes wrong wimme whenever I gets excited , anyways ... Derek introduced me with Veronica "V, meet her she's my best friend Micky. "
"Hi, Micky. My name is Veronica aka V good to see you there"! - honestly I was starstruck ... I didn't knew how to react , so I simply smiled at her and replied her "I know you, I adore you so much , I watched all your shows , I love the way you walk. The way you flaunt your confidence my God its so great to see you this close" - what? you thought I said all those things to her ???? I wish!! "it's a pleasure meeting you as well V" - this is what I replied.
I wish if that would have been the last time we met. Never thought my fate got something else to play against me. The silly and reckless me didn't understood the philosophy behind the book "ikigai" but unfortunately understood the dark reality of shuffled cards of the LIFE. Wonderfully dolled up, manipulation of the social sites , trapped between likes and follows something started dwelling up inside my 'innocent' mind changing into 'not so innocent' mind.
The game of glam was already started inside me from that very night I met V, but it triggered deep into me when I met V for the second time on the holy foundation day organized by Mr.Lee.
It didn't took me much time to understand that the glam life I am dreaming of is like a parasite, the more you're a parasite to the famous someone the easy and savory your journey to this glam damn world.
Well, my further journey got me many names , many twist and turns and it justifies the name of the chapter. Yeah Yeah I know you are curious but you gotta wait till my next chapter.
So, see you in the next chapter.
Oh right , I forgot to introduce myself.
Hi , met me - I'm Micky aka "MOUSE" or as they call me - "THE NASTY MESS" !!
