Laisha anticipated her foe's movements, thus she already had prepared her aces. As usual, she let her feel the victory first. It's been only 10hours after Leo posted again something in the news headlines.

It was Wednesday, Laisha's on her own desk, managing some documents. Her workmates were now, again staring at her, like children so curious, wanted to ask but afraid to utter a single word. Laisha kept silent the entire office hours, letting the curiosity kill the tigers. She ignored all the stares and whispers around her. Even though the ambience is suffocating her, she managed to endured it until 4 in the afternoon.

When she went home, she checked the internet and red the comments below the article entitled: A Dancer trying to seduce the teenagers' crush, Kian

She just sneered. The content is all about her, going in the Eloquent Hotel with Kian, captured by the CCTV camera. Speculations were, Laisha and Kian did a 'one night stand'. Saying that she was being desperate to seduce the model. Although they checked out separately, it can't be denied that she and he, indeed went together. The fans of Kian were in uproar, scolding the dancer, putting all the blame on her.

"I did not believed the first post about them, but seeing this! Oh my god! Don't tell me they were reciting the lords prayer inside the hotel?!"

"Soooo, it is really true!"

"DONT YOU TRY SEDUCE MY HUSBAND! YOU B*TCH!!!"

Laisha just smiled, knowing that Kian is indeed her boyfriend. But the article has gone too far. She would never use her body just to gain anything. Unlike with the one who ordered to post such scandalous story. For her, it seems ironic and funny.

People were searching for her social media accounts, but all of them were private.
Outsiders cannot use any of her images, thus no one could utilize some of her photos for memes. She kept her pace, everyone were suspecting her silence.

It is 11pm, 24hours passed when the article was posted, she opened one of her social media account and posted something.

"When you pinpoint using your pointing finger, three of your fingers were pointing back to you"

She posted it in public so everyone can see it. Those who were keep on searching for her posts found it. In an instant, they were already 50+ shares, 1K likes. Some were dumbfounded, others criticized her post mockingly. As if she was just saying a bluff to mislead them.

Neglecting the negative comments, she turned off her phone and rested.

Sophy seems pleased by Laisha's silence, concluding that she was admitting the incident was true. After 24 hours passed, she checked Laisha's account. Seeing the woman's most recent and publicized post, her anger began to rise. It seems she was not affected and just posted with deep meaning. It was obvious what Laisha meant. The one who was pinpointing Laisha was her, and the three fingers that pointing back to her means all she said just bounced back to her. Which is undeniably true. She gripped her phone tightly, scheming again of another way to retaliate.

However, after seeing how the netizens reacted, the temperature of her boiling water began to lower. "huh, ofcourse. No one would believe that stupid saying".

After that night, two days already passed when there was still no response from Laisha nor Kian. So everyone began to accept what happened, and the uproar began to minimize. People who were commenting became minimal from time to time. Until no one seems to care anymore. Sophy was agitated and wanted to keep this issue in uproar.
Then, she posted in her account.

"Fingers you say? That's what he used just to avoid you being pregnant? LOL".

After an hour, there were 10 people shared her post with shocked statements or emoticons. Once again, the issue made a huge fuss on the social media. They were like wild beasts craving for a prey to get killed. Once again, her heart was satisfied and rested.

When Laisha woke up, Sophy's post became viral as her imgae began to deteriorate again. However, this does not made her waver. She even just disregarded the hype and went to the office normally.

Her workmates also got tired of the news and just focused on their works. The hype only lasted for 10 hours and everything calmed down As if  just a huge wave bypassed, not a tsunami.

Laisha worked again normally and went home safely. As if nothing happened, she kept her composure. One of the reason why citizens got bored and dismissed the issue is that, the suspect was not affected! The only one who still can't get enough was Sophy.

Five days already passed after the footage of Laisha and Kian was posted. A sunday morning, when everyone seems enjoying their rest day. However, for Sophy, she did not expect that it is the day when Laisha will requite.

Sophy turned on her TV and channeled to her favorite morning show about modelling and photo shoots.
She took her prepared oatmeal and piece of banana, eating while watching.

The show named, Capture Experts, airs the newest models and give glimpse of hottest photo shoots of certain popular brands. Every sunday, they would invite a guest to be interviewed, which are mainly models and the brand they will endorse.

The theme for today's show is all about hotels, inns or pension houses. They would rank all the best hotels from rank 10 upto the best hotel with best photo shoots.

Sophy already finished her oatmeal and banana when the ranking is on top 4. She's gnawing a gum while she leaned her body, making herself comfortable. She stretched her legs lazily and laid down on her sofa with a pillow under her head. She felt her eyes wanting to close, so she did. But as soon as she shut her eyes, she heard the host of the show welcomed the guest of the show,

"Let's welcome, the new manager and the top 1 model of the show today! Laisha Montegral and Aeron Kin Reston, aka Kian!"

Her eyes abruptly opened and sat up like a robot. She stared at the TV as Laisha on the screen femininely take her strides towards the host, smiling innocently. At her back was Kian, standing elegantly with a poise of a manly aura. Sophy blinked many times, pinching herself, trying to convince herself that she was just dreaming. But Alas! It is really true! She bit her lower lip out of frustration as she continue to observe the show.

However, it was not only Sophy who was astonished by the appearance of the two. All of the citizens who recently scolded Laisha and threw vulgar words to her were stunned, speechless.

It was a total surprise, as all their ego were trampled in an instant!
A sudden realization that they acted arrogantly with no logical reasons.

Sophy's heart abnormally beats as her hands balled into fist.
