Prologue
"Miss, it's all clear." Adia said habang may kung anong kinakalikot sa tablet niya. Probably the security of the event.
"Okay..." As I step out of the limo, and started walking I can hear my heels touches the ground.
It's been 10 years...
It's been ten years since it all happend. Ten years of agony. Ten years of hidding. Ten years of prentending. Ten f*cking years.
Tapos na ang mga taon ng pagtatago. Tapos na ang taong pagpapanggap. Hindi na ako gagapang sa putikan, hindi na ako magmamakaawa sa kanila. Dahil ngayon, sila naman ang magmamakaawa sa'kin, sila naman ang luluhod. Sila naman ang gagapang at sisiguraduhin kong pa gapang pa lang sila, pa durog na ako.
The evilness I experienced last ten years taught me how to be strong ang my motivation to go on top. I will make sure they will regret what they've done to me. What they've done to us.
Tonight I will rose again. They will see what I've become. They will see such power on me. They must see such elegance evil on me. Makikilala nila ako sa paraang hindi nila inaakala.
There were no media outside, as I instructed. Everyone is waiting inside. Body guards are on the doors, I can also see some martials na pinapalibutan ang buong event. Ang ibang mga martial ay nakapasok na sa loob.
Everyone knows me. But not everyone recognizes me. For the past ten years they know my achievements but not my face nor personality. For the past 10 years I hid myself for this event.
I stopped in front of the double doors, gracefully and confidently wearing a gold backless mermaid fitted gown with a thin straps that plungs around the neck and low V front with a slit, Paired with gold stilletos.
I let my hair down, some gold and silver accessories to match my gown, and my gold clutch. May mga guards na nasa unahan at sa likuran ko, distance nga lang sila.
As the doors slowly opened, fake smoke and the spotlight were directed on me. Nakahilera agad ang mga Martials at Body Guards ko sa gilid ng aisle. Otomatikong namang napatayo ang lahat. Camera flashes everywhere, may ibang nagulat, ang iba naman ay namangha. The word ineffable is not enough to describe my appearance tonight.
And then slowly I walk towards the stage. I can see my reflection on the glass floor, and from the chandeliers above me, I smirked. Lahat ng galaw ko pinapanood nila. I did not smile, I remain no reaction at all. Dinig na dinig sa buong venue ang pag click ng mga stilletos ko sa glass floor.
Muli, ay huminto ako sa harap ng stage, I can see my couzins on my right wing standing and looking at me. I smiled. And then face the audience, with a sweet smile.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, the owner and CEO of LMV EMPIRE, the one and only..." Lahat ay nag aabang sa Masters of Ceremony para sa isang confirmation kung ako nga ba ang hinihintay nila. "Miss Teille Dalmecedty" pumalakpak na't sila't lahat hindi parin sila makapaniwala. Oh well...
Sinuyod ko ang kabuohan ng event. I can't believe that this crowd has been waiting for me, for years. Wearing their sparkling gowns, and ravish suits. Lahat sila ay masasabi mong angat na angat na sa lipunan. These people are living their luxurious life, and I can't believe I am one of them. More like on top if them.
