Chapter 3 THE ACTRESS PART 2

"Then what's your dream? To study? Be an accountant, handle other people's money? Is that how you want to be, ha! You won't be successful there."

And I was surprised when she threw the comb she was holding earlier to one side. That's my mom, a psychotic bitch! But I am crazier than her, so I smirked at her and replied,

"Unlike this, I am getting older, stupid and naïve, just living by performing a character's life in series and films. And the only thing in my brain is the manuscript of my new projects. Anyway, whatever! You're ruining my good night." And I turned away, I didn't realize that there were tears in my eyes.

What am I really fighting for? Nothing. Maybe I'm just being burned out of my life that was just revolving around popularity, I am getting fed up with it.

Well, I'm just going to party all night to forget this shits running on my head.

*************

When I entered the Starry hub, an exclusive party place here in Metro, loud music immediately greeted me and people dancing, drinking with friends and couples having fun. So I went straight to the private area where my friends were already sitting and also drinking. Oh well, I also have friends, just plastics, but at least I have friends.

What? It's true, in the world I live in, there are only a few people you can tell that are true to you, you're lucky if you have, but if you don't then you also need to be able to adapt because if you don't, you will definitely be left behind.

I need to, I have to pretend that I want to go around with them. Because I am afraid to be alone, I am afraid to be left alone. I feel like I'm drowning in my own emotions when I'm all alone. And this is what it caused me when I got used to the attention that people around me were giving.

I passed by the bar counter, where a beautiful woman was there and she was drunk, I am not sure but I think maybe. She laughed out loud and ordered nonstop wine. I would have approached her because it seems like she's kinda problematic about something but then I'm not that kind of person, interfering with the lives of others. So I just went straight to where my friends were.

"So, where's Avi?" I heard Ciara asked, a diva, an actress who has always been compared to me. A total b-i-t-c-h! I don't like to be with her but then she's also a friend of my considered friends, so I have no choice but to join them, instead of me mumbling alone to one side, I just chose to be with them.

"What?" I said and they looked back at my direction, there were four of us in the group.

I sat on the single couch that was there as if I owned the world, just kidding. Well, I looked at them.

"I thought something bad just happened to you, because you're late for the first time for night outs like this," she said. I just smirked out and took off my sunglasses, Yes. It's night and it's dark here inside the Starry hub, but I'm wearing sunglasses, so what. That's really it, the perks of being a famous actress. I handed over the glass of Gwen's Jack Daniels wine she offered to me and sipped it, before speaking.

"I thought you also drowned in the Pasig River... But then I remember, you were a plastic and that kind of you just float." My sarcastic response to Ciara that made her frown while the two just smiled.

She did not answer and just silently drank the wine in her glass. While I was just looking around, when a young woman approached our area, I think she was only 18 yrs old. She was holding a pentel pen and a magazine. I just looked at her with my eyebrows still raised. She just stands by my side, so I think I'm really the one she's after.

"Yes?" I said without a smile, I saw the change in her expression, she looked scared of me.

"C-can I have your autograph, Ms. Avianna? I really idolized you, you are so beautiful and perfect," she stammered and complimented me as an actress. Gosh, that's what she only wants, just a little thing for me not to grant it.

"Sure." And she handed me the magazine that had my face on the cover page.

"Can I also take a picture with you?" I just nodded in response, after that she left as well. Many more would have wanted to come close to also have my autograph and to take a picture with me but Gigi already called a bouncer to stop them. Which is good, 'cause com'on this is the only time I could rest from all my busy schedules, and then they come closer and nag me, they should just go to my mall shows and guestings for it though.

Ciara was just staring at me, so I raised an eyebrow at her.

"What are you looking at? You're envious again, tss," I said so she just looked away, feeling guilty of what I just told her.

"Enough you two, let's just dance and have some fun tonight! The sound is so good. Let's go!" Gwen cheered and Gigi stood up together with her. Well, will I just sit here and watch them enjoy the night? Of course not. So I got up too and went to the dance floor with them.

I am swaying my hips along with the music. I know we're already grabbing some attention in the crowd, especially me. Well, who doesn't know me? I'm Avianna Alejandro, the famous actress. But I didn't care at all, and was just enjoying the accompaniment of the music, when suddenly someone grabbed my left hand, and I had no choice but to drift away with him because of the speed of events.

The fuck? Who is this man... kissing me like it's the end of the world, and I have nothing else to do but to kiss him back with the same intensity and pressure.

It's like we're in a television series or a romantic movie, I'm the heroine and him? Of course he is the male protagonist.

And I really clung to his neck to make our kiss even more intense and deep.

Maybe it's the end of the world because it seems like I want to have sex with this hot beast, I don't even know who.

You know the feeling that even if the world collapses tomorrow, it's okay! At least I experienced my narrow cave to be entered by this delicious cave man.
