..Keeping My Bestfreind's Heart.. (Lucky Aces) Book 1: For The Love Of AC

Part 35: Foundation Ball

AC's POV

I was in relief when Brace was called by his producer for another meeting, so he has to leave.

"I'll just pitch you tonight" he said

"Okay, you drive safely" and wave him good bye.

I am heading inside the gym to look for Dhoa or Keziah, maybe they're with Lucky. I soon as I saw them I wave my hands to them and asked if they saw Lucky, but they haven't seen him.

I continue walking and crossed with James, one of our classmates, I asked him if he saw Lucky, and he pointed me to the rooftop. I climb up the stairs quickly. I want to talked to him, about what? God knows.

But I realize looking for him is a mistake.. I wish I didn't.

I froze of the scene that reveals before my eyes. My body seems paralyzed.

He..is..kissing..Margareth..

My mouth parted. My heart pounding so loud. My body is shaking. My head get swell.

He turned at my direction. He was so shocked seeing me watching them.

If I go up quickly, I go down in speed.

I am running through the exit gate. I wanted to go home and be safe on my crib. I ride on the first cab that stop in front me and dictated my address.

As soon as I arrived home, I went directly to my room. I slammed myself on the bed and pressed my face on the pillow. I let go of the tears that is longing to be out in my eyes. I cried heavily. I am surpressing the sounds of my cry, afraid someone might hear me.

How difficult right? I wanted to shout freely and let go of the pains that is aching inside.

I don't know how long I cried. I had fallen asleep. When I woke up, it's already 5:30 pm, our call time to be in the venue is 7:30. Maybe I was asleep for long and that's a good thing, in any way I was able to forget the aches. The aches...just merely remembering it, makes my heart feeling the pain again.

Before this thing will bring me for another crying session, I stoop up immediately and went to my bathroom to freshen up. I wish pains are simple as dirt, it will be carried away by taking shower.

After a while, my mom knocked at my door informing that the hired beautician is already down stair. I went down. He's a gay.

"Ganda mo naman darling, at mas lalo pa kitang pagagandahin" he told me while sounding his fingers.

I just smile and said "Thank you"

I seated in the chair facing the mirror. He started to fix my hair and curlled the edge. I closed my eyes as he's starting to apply make up on my face. After like an hour, he's done fixing me.

I open my eyes, and I was astonished of the reflection in the mirror..

I am..beautiful..it seems a new me.

"Oh My GOODNESS!! you're so beautiful!! as in Goddess!!, tingnan lang natin kung hindi magkakandarapa ang mga boys kapag nakita ka" he said in appreciation.

"Anak, dalagang dalaga ka na" My Dad Arnold complimented. "Maybe I should tight my guard on you, baka magkapila na dito sa mga manliligaw mo"

"AC anak, enjoy the night okay"

I just nod to Mom.

I went back into my room to wear my pink silk cocktail dress beaded with stones in the neckline. It was cut just right below my knee and has a heart shape cut on my chest. (picture above in the media). I paired it with???.....sneaker..yeah! I'm not used in wearing heels. I cound't last just a minute.
