Chapter 20.1: KUpal

"Here's the gown!" Ate Sharly is carrying the box of gown. Agad lumapit sa kanya si Ate Shanty at inagaw ang box. Nilapag niya ang box sa sofa at binuksan. Wow! Mas excited pa siya sa 'kin, ha? Tinanggal niya ang pagkakatupi ng evening gown ko at tinitigan 'yon.

"Ito ang gown mo?" Ate Shanty asked.

"Ah, yeah?" I asked sarcastically while looking at it too! It's beautiful!

"Ah, para kasing mas bagay sa 'kin," she said. Dinikit niya pa talaga 'yong gown sa katawan niya at umikot-ikot. As if she's imagining that it's hers.

"Really? Then if gano'n, ikaw na lang din ang umattend ng prom," I said leaving her there. I'm worried about my prom. I might not enjoy it lalo na't ngayon, I have my period. What if matagusan ako? Or what if hindi ako makasayaw nang ayos? Or hindi ako makakain? Gano'n pa naman ako 'pag meron ako.

Shems! I'm overthinking about it again.

I looked at the clock, it's already 4:00 pm, so I decided to take a bath na.

After taking a bath, I wear an off shoulder blouse and skirt. I ate my meal and brushed my teeth. Then after that, I blow dried my hair and Mommy fixed my hair into a French roll updo hair style. She put gems on my bunned hair too. Ate Shanty and Ate Sharly put makeup on me. They put primer, concealer and foundation over my face. Ate Sharly shaved some of my brows and I almost cried because of that. Ayoko nang pinapakialaman ang kilay ko na natural na ang shape.

"Tatanggalin lang 'yong excess!" If Mom's not fixing my hair, I'm sure that she will pull my hair na sa inis.

"'Wag nga! Lagyan niyo na lang ng concealer!" I said with teary eyes.

"Tanga ka ba? Concealer is for hiding pimples, eye bags, scars or freckles! Hindi para sa eyebrows!" Ate Sharly said while glaring at me.

"Sharly, language!" Mom scolded her.

"Bilis na kasi, Shanel! Umayos ka na!" Maging si Ate Shanty ay napikon na rin dahil natuluan ng luha ko ang pisngi ko. Kaya kahit labag sa loob ko ay pumayag na lang ako.

Ate Shanty put eyeliner under my eyes that made me cry, nakakakiliti kasi. She was really irritated of me because of that. Nakailang ulit din sila sa pagme-makeup sa 'kin dahil sa kaartehan ko raw.

Now, I'm staring at myself. I am wearing a dark green off shoulder long gown with Swarovski crystal beads at its shoulders. Pinagsisihan ko ang design ng gown ko dahil nakikita nang konti ang cleavage ko---kahit wala naman ata. It was tight fitting over my upper body that highlighted my curves. While the bottom part is kinda loose. It has a slit from my left knee down to my ankle. Long back ito kaya ang cute tingnan, the gown's color really corresponded with my skin color. It made me glow more. I am also wearing high silver stilettos.

And as for my jewelry, I have my simple diamond earrings, minimalist silver necklace with a diamond pendant, and I have three silver bracelet bangles on my right hand complemented with a silver handbag with Swarovski gems too that matched my gown.

I stared at my face; I never expected that I would be this beautiful.

Just kidding

I'm not pretty, nasaktuhan lang na maganda ang make up nila Ate sa 'kin. Ate Sharly put dark green nail polish on my nails earlier; she put some gems over it too. Maganda ba talaga ako? Ano ba 'yan? Nagiging conceited na rin tuloy ako just like Ate Xyle! My gosh! It's not an insult to ate Xyle, though. It's just that I'm not as pretty as her for me to become that narcissistic.
