Reincarnated as an extra Villainess

3. A tea with the Villainess

So far, everything's  good.

Aside from the crown prince that continuously sending me letters ay nagawa kong hindi ma-encounter ang mga main character, kaya so far wala na akong bagay na pinoproblema.

A group of servants pass by, babatiin ko sana pero bigla silang yumuko at nagsialisan.

Ah, meron pa pala. My reputation. I groaned.

I don't know what's the right thing to do to please them. Sa past life ko, I don't care about other people so I don't really like pleasing them because I believed that whatever you do, even if you do good things, or you show them kindness, in the end they will only seek on what they would gain from you. They will use you but discard you if you're no longer deem useful. That's why I didn't cared.

But looking back, I thought that what if I tried something? If I didn't put walls on myself and tried to open up to someone. Maybe I wouldn't be alone, or maybe I wouldn't be so sad, maybe I would felt a little happier, maybe someone would have been sad when I died...

I had many regrets from my past life, that's why I am trying so hard to attain my goal.

Pinilig ko ang ulo. Past na iyon. Hanna Lucero is no longer me. Ako na ngayon si Therese Claire Roseville. And I will do everything to achieve that happy and peaceful life that I never had!

Pero hindi ko alam na mabilis lang pala mapuputol ang pantasya ko.

I never thought being a noble lady is exhausting!

Akala ko ba iyong mga noble lady doon sa libro or sa movie, sitting pretty lang tapos pa tea-tea. Pero in real life, damn. Being a noble lady is killing me!

Noong kakagising ko mula sa aksidente, buong araw na wala akong ginawa kundi ang mamasyal o kaya ay magpahinga.

But after the physician visited our estate and told my parents that I recovered from the accident, everything changed.

From proper etiquette, cross-stitching, literature, politics, art, horseback riding and so on...

Parang gusto ko na lang ulit malaglag sa kabayo para makapagpahinga ako.

But then, naisip ko na pagkakataon ko na din ito para patunayan na nagbago na ako.

I've heard from Cara, it's a miracle that I attended my lessons, dati daw kasi tinatakasan ko iyon.

Today, ready na akong sumabak sa gera, or rather lessons. But then, Cara told me that it is my rest day. My lessons will continue for the next three days from now.

I was so happy that I even jumped in joy. Pero kuno't-noo akong tiningnan ni Cara, alam ko mukha na akong baliw sa paningin niya.

But just like what people said, happiness is only a fleeting moment. It will end in a swift second.

"Lady Therese, a letter has arrive from the house of Lavienx," she informed.

Lavienx?

As in... Savanah Iris Lavienx?!

The main Villainess?!

***

Smile Therese, make sure to make friends and blend well to them. Do not stand out! Iyon ang paalala ko sa sarili.

I was invited to a tea party of Lady Lavienx. Kinakabahan ako dahil ayokong magkamali, baka kasi mapansin nila na nag-iba na ako. But honestly, gusto ko ng umiwas sa grupo nila pero hindi madali iyon. If I suddenly ignore them, I will automatically be on their bad side. And that's not what I want.

Baka imbes na si Elysse ang target nilang apihin ay biglang maging ako na. Hindi sa gusto ko na si Elysse ang apihin, pero mas lalong hindi ko gusto na mapunta sakin ang atensyon nila.
