AYESHA

I've been here for 6 days now and I still haven't found anything important intel about this selection thing yet. Hindi ko pa rin alam kung ano ang daloy ng selection na ito.

There are still many questions left unanswered and it's making me go nuts! Napasabunot ako sa wig sa ulo ko at napabuntong hiningang ibinagsak ang katawan sa kama.

Hindi na rin nagpapakita ang bakulaw na 'yong si Zage sa akin. Buti naman! Aatakihin niya ako, aatakihin ko rin siya! Aba, malakas ako!

Napatigil ako dahil sa biglang pagkatok ng pinto sa galing sa labas dito sa pinto ng kinaroroonan ko ngayon. "My lady Ayesha. You're dress have finally arrived." Rinig kong sabi ng butler galing sa labas kaya dali dali naman akong bumangon saka binuksan ang pinto para sa kaniya.

Nakita ko itong may bitbit na white rectangle box. "Pasok ka muna." Sabi ko at binigyan ito ng daan kaya ningitian naman din ako nito.

It was a personalized dress that I personally designed at pinapatahi sa royal seamstress. The seamstress was even surprised by my design kasi maganda raw iyon. My hobby is to draw and paint then designing clothes and dresses.

"Why don't you try it, my little lady? I bet it's perfect for you!" The butler beamed as he opened the box and showed me the dress. A white lacy bodycon dress with white pearl beads around, making it shine. "This is so pretty!" The butler exclaimed at napatango ako. I was also beaming with excitement as I saw the beautiful dress!

"I can't even believe how the seamstress did this. This is exactly what I imagined it to be!" I exclaimed at hinawakan ang torso part ng dress. This is so pretty!

"Okay, I'll try it." Sabi ko at inagaw ang box sakaniya and tip toed to the dressing area.

Isinuot ko na ang dress at lumabas na sa dressing area. I couldn't believe that the soft white feathers on the hem were so perfect! I looked so snowy! I can't help but feel giddy at medyo tumalon talon sa saya! "You looked so cute and gorgeous on that dress!" Sabi ng butler at pumalakpak pa.

"I know right?!" I turned around showing the dress like a little girl at masayang nakaharap sa whole bodied mirror. Even using this wig is still perfect for this dress!

Biglang may kumatok sa pintoan kaya napatigil naman ako. Sino kaya iyan? "Ms. Luna, a letter from the King." Rinig kong boses ni Ember kaya tumango ako sa butler at lumapit ito sa pinto saka binuksan ito.

"Lord Ember." Bati ng butler saka iniyuko ang ulo nito at itinanggap ang letter. Nakita ko naman na nakatitig saglit si Ember sa akin galing sa labas ng pinto habang suot ang dress ko.

"You looked beautiful."

Hindi ko maialis sa isipan ko ang sinabi ni Ember kanina. She told me that I was beautiful...

I just shook my head habang inaayos ako ng isang palace maid para maghanda sa party mamayang gabi. Suot suot ko na rin ang dress ko ngayon. "Nervous, my lady?" Tanong ng maid and I chuckled.

I am nervous. Attending to a luxurious party in this place, being a guest, and one of the participants of the selection is a hell of a rollercoaster ride. I can't even believe I was bullied by those girls last week.

"You can say it like that. Is it obvious?" Tanong ko nito at tumango naman ito. "Really?" Paninigurandong tanong ko habang nakatingin ako sa kaniya rito sa repleksyon ng salamin.

"Don't worry too much, my lady. Ipalaglag ko ang mga panga nila kuya mamaya sa'yo." Sabi nito at napatawa naman ako sa sinasabi niya. "I'm serious! Talent ko magpapaganda ng mga nobles madam!" Dagdag naman nito at tumango naman ako.
