CHAPTER SEVEN

~Peace~

“Cheers to Vienna! Gosh, I don't know how did you convince this sister of mine to join this photoshoot!” Avery muttered while sitting next to mine, looking at her reflection in the big mirror in front of us.

Aisha laughed at Avery’s comments about me. I just rolled my eyes at them. Aisha clearly saw it as she gently brushed the blush that she put on my cheeks. “I still do wonder what kind of convincing powers Vienna has to make you finally say yes to this my dear little sister,” Aisha asked while doing my makeup.

I raised my brow at her. “Is that supposed to be a good thing or what?” i asked confusingly which made her let out a soft chuckle.

“It’s a good thing for me because after asking you so many times about this. You finally said ‘yes’! You really do not know how much this means to me!” I can see that. The sparkle in Aisha’s eyes and the smile escaping in her pink lips was screaming bliss after my decision to finally be Darshanna’s new face for their new launch.

Yes. I am now the new face of Darshanna’s new line. A lawyer and now looking like a maneater doll. Hindi ko alam kung anong nakikita sa ‘kin ng mga ‘to at pilit nila akong gustong gawing model.

Yes, I do have features that they have and make people envy them. Many tell me that I’m pretty enough to be like them. But modeling and their careers was never my dream. I don't like being in front of a camera. I never liked that idea. I got so many offers since I was 14 even till now. But I only said yes to them right now because I want to support them. Something that I already do but not like this.

“I know, I want to make you and Vienna happy. And besides. Sa kakulitan niyong dalawa paano pa ako makaka hindi?” i said stating the fact.

Aisha let out a soft squeal in excitement. “Thankiess, Vareneee! I kept telling you that you’re so pretty to be stuck inside a room where the only thing you can see is books and files! Your beauty deserves to be seen kaya!” Aisha stated.

“I agree, Alam mo ba. My modeling agency wants you to join us, Varene. Ang tagal-tagal na kitang sinusubukan na kumbinsihin pero ayaw mo talaga. They handled mom before, and trust me you’re in good hands” Avery stated as her makeup artist continued her makeup.

“It’s only a one-time offer. Since I can't say no to Aisha and Vienna. I won't pursue modeling”

Aisha heaved a deep sigh. “Modeling is better than risking your life because of the cases you are handling. You might die ugly because of that” I wanna see her reaction if I told her that I’m not scared of that. Pero wag na, she offered to be my makeup artist na nga despite being busy.

She’s already wearing her outfit and she’s already ready for our photoshoot but yet she still does my makeup. Ganyan siya ka saya.

And when she’s happy, she creates literal art. Just like what she’s doing to my face right now. I really can't believe her skills. She makes my eye bags and other flaws of my face that i got because of stress with her makeup skills. And turned me into a fierce doll.

I kinda admit that i feel happy seeing myself in this way. Glowing and without any signs of stress. It makes me feel as if everything is indeed all right.

“Gosh you look so beautiful” Aisha complimented me after finishing my makeup. Looking myself at in the mirror, it’s the first time that I’ll ever agree to that compliment.

I smiled. “It’s been a long time since I looked somehow desirable” I mumbled while Aisha looked at me in the mirror.

Her brows furrowed because of what i said. “Who said you’re undesirable? Of course, you’re desirable” Aisha said tapping my shoulder.
