Sweet Escape (Intersex)

09- The Tiny Star

"With a shy radiance, the tiny star initiates its glow, casting a soft aura of enchantment across the universe."

Tiffany Suzanne Holland

The car slowed down and came to a halt in front of Lèandre Couture, a high-end fashion boutique. A man dressed in a sleek suit quickly approached the car and opened the door for us. As we stepped out of the car, I couldn't help but feel intimidated by the grandeur of the place.

"Are you ready, Ms. Holland?" Aizenberg asked with a smile. She extended her hand, as if inviting me to walk alongside her inside.

I nodded and smiled as I took her hand and we walked together down the long red carpet. The carpet seemed to stretch on forever, leading us to an event backdrop where photographers were snapping pictures of the guests.

As we reached the end of the red carpet, I was momentarily blinded by the flashes of cameras pointed in our direction. Aizenberg stepped forward in the center of the backdrop, and pose as the photographers snapping pictures of her, looking her stunning like a celebrity with her tall, toned figure and beautiful face that could rival those of the top models of luxury brands.

After a few poses, it was my turn to step up for the photos. Medyo kinakabahan at nahihiya ako dahil first time ko ang maka-attend sa ganitong event, but as I looked towards Aizenberg direction, ngumiti sya saakin na tila sinasabi nya na kaya ko to, kaya kahit papaano nabawasan ang hiya ko.

Dahil hindi talaga marunong mag pose o magproject sa camera. Napagdesiyonan ko nalang na gayahin yung cute pose ng mga Korean-pop group na favorite ko.

"Smile! Yeah.. there you are..One..two..three." Saad ng photographers habang kumukuha ito ng pictures ko gamit ang lense ng camera nya.

I shyly smiled, and I couldn't help but enjoy the moment and soak up the glamour of the event. After kaming kuhaan ng pictures sa event backdrop, nagtungo na kami sa lobby ng Lèandre's Couture lobby. Inside, was a sight to behold.

From the exterior of the building masasabi ko talagang ang ganda, para lang akong nasa ibang bansa. Yung kulay ng walls, cream color with gold accents, giving off an opulent Dubai-inspired vibe was absolutely perfect.

Even entrance was adorned with an expensive grand glass door that opened up to a spacious lobby with white marble floors and high ceilings. Feeling ko talaga nasa mall ako ng mga Royals.

As we walk into the main showroom, I was left in awe of the luxurious interior. The walls were lined with elegant displays showed the latest fashion pieces from Lèandre Couture.

The lights was perfect, highlighting the intricate details of each garment. The chandeliers hanging from the ceiling were adorned with pure crystals that sparkled in the light, and they were truly breathtaking.

I couldn't take my eyes off of them, especially sa magagandang dresses na nakasuot sa mannequin nila. mahilig talaga ako sa fashion, kaya sobrang naappreciate ko ang details at ang ganda ng mga new collections nila.

As I looked to the next room, I was starstruck, when I saw some of the most famous influencers, vloggers, and even celebrities in person. They all looked so expensive and beautiful, dressed in the latest fashion trends of Stella Dash and Lèandre Couture collection and carrying designer bags from famous luxury brands.
