"Congrats Tay. You're still the winner for us." Isabella said hugging Taylor. The Ms. International 2016 happened in Axis Las Vegas  and Taylor won as 2nd runner up. Not bad for a first-timer like her.

"I'll be auditioning Ms. Universe USA next year." She replied.

"Yes you should. Don't give up."

"And you're gonna design my evening again. So I'll be given the best evening gown award again."

"Come on let's go." Monica said and they walked out of the arena when there was no people left. There assistant carrying the makeup and gowns.

They just about to get out when the media surprisingly waited for them with flashing cameras and reporters nagging and blocked their way out.

"Ms. Ross, how being second runner up from your first time in pageant?" A reporter asked while microphone was near Taylor's mouth.

"It's good. After all, it's my first time and I already nailed the second runner up and being able to represent the beautiful country of USA at the age of 20." Taylor replied smilinglym

"Ms. Campbell. How does it feel that you're designing the dress of your ex husband's sister."

Isabella was silent for awhile.

"It doesn't feel odd. It's comfortable. After all, we treat each other like real sisters."

"How does Simon feels about it. You didn't parted in good ways."

Isabella was silent.

"Actually, Simom isn't around. So what's the matter?" Taylor defended.

"Do you have closure?"

"No. Not really, we didn't parted in good ways but everything is okay now. He was back being a bachelor again and I have my non-showbiz boyfriend

"Ms. Campbell, what can you say about the accusations that Simon Ross divorced you cause your a gold-digger."

Isabella felt insulted. She wanted to speak the truth but her throat felt dry and her mind was blank. The whole world must've heard it and her image was ruined.

Shame.

What she felt right now. Is an explainable embarrassment that

Simon thinks of her as a gold-digging bitch then he wanted her again.

"Nothing. After all we divorce that I didn't even ask for a single dime and I refused for his money."

"Why did you hid in the Philippines for five long years?"

"I studied and pursued my dreams their so when I come back, I'll be a successful designer." She said. Isabella couldn't contain the embarrassment anymore.

"I think we should go." Taylor said and walked out with Isabella and her mom.

As soon as they get in the limo, Isabella sighed heavily. Visible enough to hear by Monica and Taylor.

She felt so broken reminiscing the past five years ago. She can't believe she's still so vulnerable. She thought shes brave enough to laugh at the memory, but unfortunately, she is still broken and hurt.

"Are you okay?" Taylor asked.

"Yeah."

"Isa. I really want you and big bro to get back together." Taylor said.
