Beyond The Universe

Chapter 3

After na announced yung top 5 na pasok sa competition, Michelle went through the backstage with a heavy heart because she lost the chance to be part in the Q & A which she prepared the most to make the Filipino fans more proud of her. One of her team went to her and show the trending mistake and deleted post that the Miss Universe page was done. And that makes her cry hard and went to the comfort room to release all the mixed emotions that she have and the things happen that doesn't sink in her mind that was confusing.

It takes minutes to compose herself because she needs to go back to stage for the crowning of Miss Universe 2023.

Sinabi niya nalang sa kanyang sarili na "Maybe it happens for a reason at di talaga itinadha na makapasok ako sa top 5. Pero nilaban ko naman hanggat kaya kong ilaban"...

Bumalik na siya sa stage kasama ang ibang delegates to witness the crowning and winners of the pageant.

So Miss Nicaragua got the Miss Universe 2023 crown and Anntonia, the first runner up. I'm very happy for her atleast she made in that place. I'm not blaming her for what happen because I know she doesn't know anything and I trust her so much. It is in the management who will answer all the allegations and questions of the fans. They are reliable from it.

Anntonia goes to me after she received the boquet of flowers and I know what she feels.

Michelle hugged her and telling "You did all your best mommy. Congratulations!".

Anntonia smiled back at me and hug me back. "Thanks dadee, I hope I still made my Thai fans proud for what I have now" she replied.

"Ofcourse! They are proud of you from the beginning until the end mommy" sinabi naman ni Michelle.

"What will I do now if you are not here in my side dadee in this time that I need comfort. I'm very glad I have you always" Anntonia replied to Michelle with a smile and teary eyes.

In Michelle's mind and heart, Anntonia will always feel her care and love for her because she already captured my heart noon pa. Naghahanap lang ng lakas ng loob si Michelle na masabi kay Anntonia ang kanyang nararamdaman. So having that moment with her parang silang dalawa lang ang nasa stage. Hahahah.. Pero Michelle give the other delegates the chance to congratulate Anntonia. Baka akalain nila binabakuran ko siya. 😊

And she went to Miss Nicaragua to tell her congratulations and goodluck for the upcoming projects to be given by her and for her advocacy.

Anntonia was busy after the crowning. She had a chance to talk with some other judges that tells their "congratulations". Also with the owner of Miss Universe, Miss Anne who congratulated me. She went for interviews and to her shock she found out what happens to the controversy of announcing the top 5. And it involves Michelle and I.

In her mind "Why Michelle didn't tell me earlier?". After this interview I need to go to her.

I'm worried now how she feels on it.. "I just answered the press I didn't know what happen. All I think was the crown in that moment."

After interview and it was already 11pm, I went directly to Michelle's room. I knock and I heard Miss Laos t
said come in. I didn't see Michelle on her bed.

"Where is Michelle?" worriedly asked by Anntonia.

"She has been in the bathroom for an hour now" sadly replied by Miss Laos.

She continued "Did you already find out what commotions happened Anntonia about the Top 5 Announcement?".

"Yes, and I was shocked about what happen. I didn't know anything before the interview was done." softly said by Anntonia.

"She needs you now Anntonia. Clear everything in her mind and make her accept what just happen back there" advised by Miss Laos.

"Ok, I will and thank you Miss Laos you didn't left her alone" said by Anntonia and smiled slighty to Miss Laos.

"I will leave you two alone so you can have your serious and heart talk together" Miss Laos said and went silently outside.

Anntonia goes straight to the bathroom. Knock and call Michelle. "Dadee... dadee... Can you open the door? she sincerely said. No one replied to her.

"Please dadee we need to talk. Please... I'm worried about you here".. she begged to Michelle..

And the door slightly opened. She saw Michelle laying in the bathtub and tears fell from here cute eyes. But here eyes look so different because of crying for an hour..

"Dadee, I just heard and knew what happen back there in the competition. I didn't do anything. Of all the ladies out there, why me and you were involved" sadly said by Anntonia and look at her straight from here beautiful eyes.

She stares at me and says "I don't blame you Mommy. I trust you with all my heart. I'm just disappointed to the management why these happens and can't help myself burst out my feelings towards it".

Anntonia hugged Michelle tightly after hearing what she said.

"Everything will be ok dadee. Please be strong and be positive. I'm just here for you remember that always" Anntonia said. And now, she's the one who kissed first on the forehead of Michelle.

Michelle closed her eyes after she felt the soft kiss of Anntonia in my forehead. It took all the worries and sadness I felt because of her presence. "I'll be ok soon mommy. Thanks you for comforting me now".

"Good to hear that dadee". Anntonia smiled to Michelle to lift the spirit of her.

And she continued to talk "Let's go to your bed dadee and have to rest. Don't stay here like this you might catch colds".

"Ok, mommy" replied Michelle. She was assisted by Anntonia while going to my bed and hug me again when we reach the bed.

"It kills me seeing you like this dadee. Please don't be like this again if you have problem or something to share. Don't hesitate to tell me ok. And I'm sorry I came late because I have been busy with the media. I can't easily escape them and went directly to you". seriously said by Anntonia.

And it really showed in her eyes that what she said is true. If I can only sealed this situation with a kiss from her tempting lips but I control myself and just smiled at her saying "Thanks a lot mommy".

Michelle lays on her bed now and invites Anntonia to sleep with her tonight. She accepts the invitation that she will sleep beside her. Actually there are times like this that Michelle sleeps in our room and me in their room. And she hugged me and rest on my chest like a baby. She is now peacefully closing her eyes and ready to sleep. It really feels like heaven to be with her..
