The Revenge of the Former Fangirl

Chapter 2 : He hates THEM

LANCE's POV)

"I'M SO TIRED..." 

Man, I just got home from several TV guestings and rehearsals. Minsan naiisip ko na ring mag-quit sa showbiz at maging normal na teenager na lang.

To be honest, I am starving for freedom. Gusto ko rin maranasang pumasok sa normal school at maka-gradutae sa high school getting up the stage wearing a toga, receiving medals, diplomas and everything.

But with the fame and fortune that I beget from this career as a popular teen sensation, somehow I consider myself lucky.

I think I'm born for this. 

As a son of the richest talent producers in the country, I knew that from the start, my life has already been planned and I just have to continue working it out even better.

Well if Hollywood has Justin Bieber, then the Philippines has me.

Honestly, not that I am bragging but, I am quite handsome and talented.

At 17, I stand five-foot-nine, fair, matangos ang ilong, naturally born with hazelnut-colored eyes, at my awesome killer smile that makes girls crazy for me.

I did get this looks though from my British father who passed away when I was five dahil sa isang plane crash. Lance Michael Greenwood is my original name but I chose to use my mother's maiden surname, "Mercado" for my screen/stage surname since I work here in the Philippines.

My mom is a pure-blooded Filipina, though. She is beautiful. She's actually the sole heiress of the highest-grossing recording company owner sa bansa noon. She studied in Europe where she met my dad.

However, mula nang mamatay ang daddy, umuwi na kami  dito sa Pilipinas at pinamahalaan na ng mommy ang kumpanya ng lolo ko who also passed away a year before my dad did. 

Actually, yung pag-aarista ko rin ang bumuhay muli sa company naming almost nalugi noong namatay ang lolo ko.

"YOUR fans are outside",  my mom said while I was packing my things after the rehearsal for my upcoming concert.

"Oh, great..." I replied with a sigh.

"Why do you always feel bad about them? They're all very nice and very supportive naman. And most of all, they are the reason for all the fame you have right now. You should love them."

"Mom, please don't start this again ." I said annoyingly.

I mean, why would he love them?
They are very irritating and demanding. Kunwari lang naman ang maayos at sweet kong pakikitungo sa mga yon on TV at mga mall shows ko.

Actually, lagi ko pa ngang tinataguan ang mga yan. Buti sana kung puro mga high-end fancy heiresses ang titili para sa akin sa bawat live show ko.

But fancy teenagers aren't really super-fan-types of local celebrity icons like me because they would rather spend their monthly allowance on pradas and other expensive girl stuffs than buy his concert tickets. 

They'd rather spend money on watching the Jonas Brothers, One Direction and Justin Bieber.

Rich girls love sosy stuffs,  while I attract these jejemon Filipinas.

To sum it up, I really admit that I'm totally ignorant sa mga bagay na simple o hindi elegante.
