Chapter 6

Four Years Later

From my past life, I was neither beautiful nor ugly. My looks are completely normal. In exchange, I was given an hourglass-shaped body. That is one of the reasons why men approached me, giving no care of how I look or what kind of person I am. Others just see me as a toy added to their collection, some were for their bets and dares. I hated that.

I had two exes. The first one I liked was a total playboy that only hangs out with me during Wednesdays. Dahil sa kagustuhan kong makaranas ng kapareha ay hindi ko namalayan na pinaglaruan lang pala ako at pinagmukhang tanga. I regretted that so much. The second and last one was a basketball player who had many friends. We were polar opposites. It is to say that he was the sun while I was the moon. Hiniwalayan din ako kaagad. I think he was just confused that he liked me because I am different from him. I, too, felt like that when we split up. Maybe I was just too enamored in a phrase called ‘opposites attract’. Parang isang araw ay nagising sa reyalisasyon at biglang nawala ang kagustuhan nito sa akin. I did not feel much sadness from it, though. I was foolish. Blinded by romance, I did not experienced true happiness. My only salvation were books.

Hindi na ulit pa ako magpapalinlang ngayong ibinigay sa akin ang aking pangalawang buhay. Sisiguraduhin kong ang taong gugustuhin ko ay ang siyang luluhod lang sa harap ko at sa akin lamang.

I stared at awe in front of the mirror.

Black silky hair that was curled at the ends of it, evil, green eyes, a perfect nose, luscious and fine lips, and a smooth and white skin. Parang sisirain ng kolorete ang aking mukha kung sabihin. I was given a chance to be this beautiful in this life, I should cherish it.

Napatingin ulit ako sa repleksiyon ko.

I noticed that my eyes were a bit slanted and had black, long lashes. Idagdag pa ang nunal sa ibaba ng aking kaliwang mata. I am becoming more like a villainess that came straight out from a book. Despite of that, I have no complaints. Alam kong maganda ako at hindi na kailangan pang lagyan ng kolorete ang aking mukha, a simple lip moisturizer would be enough.

Napangisi ako at hinawakan ang salamin.

“You are still beautiful, Young Miss---I mean, my Lady.” Hilda remarked while she is being in charge of my hair and ornaments. I smirked at her.

“You should get used of calling me ‘Lady’ now, Hilda.”

“Yes, my Lady.” Tango nito.

“Was it like this when it was your coming-of-age-ceremony?”

“I would not dare. Living and serving you is enough for me, Lady Arisia.” Napailing ako.

“Liar. You also want Davidron.” Panunuya ko. Nasa harap pa rin ako ng salamin kaya kita ko ang pagsingkit ng aking mga mata.

It was surprisingly seductive. It will be even more than that if I get all my emotions back in a normal state. It has been four years since the day I lost those, I know nothing about how I should get it back. Kaunting mga emosyon lang ang maipapakita ko at iyon lang. As for my emotions, I sometimes feel void and also cruel. Father also recommended a psychiatrist to help me but I did not want it. I did not care.

“About him, it seems like he does not like me. Iniiwasan pa ako kapag nakakasalubong ko siya, mas lalo ngayon. We casually interacted when he came here and there were no problems back then. But slowly, I feel like he’s drifting away from me. Parang isang araw ay namalayan ko na lang na malayo na siya mula sa akin. Excuse my rant again, my Lady.” Just give him up. “But I will not give him up.” And here I was, thinking of helping her to give him up and move on. Ilang beses na rn na sinasabi sa akin ni Hilda ang tungkol kay Davidron. Tagapakinig at unawa lang ako.
