JLo is my Boss

😭 23 : Ignored

The year 2017 just finished and well yeah, things were pretty back to usual after the short holidays. I thought it would only be me, mom and Brandon  but thanks to our friendly and very welcoming neighbors they celebrated and bonded with us in New Year's Eve. They were celebrating our first celebration of Christmas and New Year's Eve here in America. Beverly and her parents (who came all the way from Beverly Hills) were also there at the New Year's Eve party and that pretty made my night. Chloé wasn't there to celebrate with us cause their whole family went to their home in Australia.

And now mom's back to work and Brandon is back to his duh, busy career. Our relatives in the Philippines were very supportive of Brandon "the star of Nicolas Clan" after they heard about him.

And I somewhat feel a little jealous of him cause that's supposedly MY label. I've always dreamed of becoming a star my whole life but everything I've dreamed of happened to my brother. And not to me.😩

While me, well I've got nothing to wait this year besides becoming 18 this March and that sucks. I don't like reaching the legal age, that means I can be jailed already if I do shit!

Back to the track.. January 6 Saturday, there will be a huge party at Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills and Brandon's gonna bring the whole fam. His whole management will be there and so is Chloé's and her fam, who just got back from her hometown Melbourne. Of course it will be a formal party with a bunch of formal, social, and classy people. Not the party where we find in cliché Wattpad books where there's drinks, XTC, lots of hot guys, disco and slutty girls. If that would be the case, my mom would never allow me to go.

But the day before the party didn't go well cause mom would really force me to go there even I insist I'd better stay home. I think the only good part of the management's invitation is the overnight stay at the fancy hotel. I've heard Mariah had spent Christmas there.

"Mom this is not a good idea, I might just stay at home or at Beverly's."

"Why not, Anna? It's your brother and your friend's party. There will be some not-so-big-time celebrities there too. And we've never been to a celebrity party so now it's our chance."

"Well I've been to one when I worked for Jennifer." I said rolling my eyes.

"Come on you're gonna have fun."

"Mooom what will I do there? I'll get bored and feel out of place eventually anyway. I mean with those bunch of E, D and C-listers? Ugh, a sleep over at Bev's for one night will be fine." I whined.

"Bring her with you instead, I'll ask an extra invitation for her so you would have companion," Mom reasoned. "You should socialize with different people you know."

"Ma! I'm not going to whatsover Beverly Wilshit Hotel.."

"Nope Brianna. You're going with me to the salon right now for a makeover and we'll buy something fancy for us to wear to the party AND you are not going anywhere tomorrow BUT to the party." She ended the conversation pretty much that way and I've got nothing to do about it. Moms always win. 😩

"Thanks so much for your car Beverly. It's a great help or else we would have been awfully commuting." Mom said.

"No really it's my pleasure," Bev replied as she stopped the car.

"Thank you so much for tugging me along with you, Brianna. This is so nice," she said as we exited from HER car at the Hotel's private parking lot.

Yup cause we have no car and because mom invited her for me and so she offered us a ride instead. And I think that was an equally brilliant idea.

"Hey girls what are you waiting for? Let's go." Mom called us.
