CHAPTER 25: Karma Chamilion
Okay, I think it's high time I stop thinking highly of Ho-Seok.
What was that?
Believing he helped me, only to put me in a worse sadder mood. I took back what I said about Ho-Seok being considerate, more like Satan's spawn.
It felt like I survived a hurricane. Damien Thorn was even polite.
Nothing, absolutely nothing had prepared me for that shit that left his mouth in the make-up room.
Yenyenyen.....Mtcheew....
I walked inside the washroom to wash myself off bad energies. I already used a few minutes out of the almighty thirty minutes to wail my poor soul out. Reminding myself this is my fate and reputation.
Once I was done cleaning my face, I walked back to the make-up room to my relief, the devil's spawn wasn't there.
I strongly believed that Ho-Seok was discreetly praying for my downfall, but I was about to prove to him I didn't spend years of training and hustling to fit into the megastar paragon just to be trapped upon.
A mix of unease,fear, anger, and irritation twisted my stomach when those crystalline eyes that switched to dark unforgiving eyes were fixed on me. His menacing words explained two things. One, Hoseok can never forgive me. Two, we might kill each other before we even made it to the end of the shoots.
He should go hug Transformer, who cares? I'm about to go out there to prove to him what a she-devil as he said is capable, and always good at. Kicking ass, especially his, and his insufferable attitude.
I sat down in the dressing mirror. Oh God, Kayla. Can she just allow Nanny Roxa and the driver to do today's school runs of picking Ha-na from school?
She won't.
"Kayla take a break." Her employee notified me.
I don't need those information, Shirley, just come fix my face before Kingsley murdered my ass for wasting another minute.
Kayla was the make-up artist endorsed under me. I'm signed under the K25 Label, even though the K25 label has other make-up artists, and they were extremely good, however, Kayla, my baby girl, and friend. A versatile bitch with her own successful make-up brand. But each time I secured a deal, I always tried to fix her. Even if the brands have their make-up artists. That has always been my way of showing my gratitude for all the love and care she has shown towards me and Ha-na, though she doesn't need me to be successful, nevertheless, l loved carrying her along; and she lives to what she is knows how to do best, KAYLA'S GLAME.
Once Shirley was done, I was going to the camera room when Juana bumped into me, her breath hitched. She looked fluttered and her cheeks flushed in pink, enough to explain her awkwardness.
Juana and her love for handsome men are inseparable.
"Girl, you need to see, Ho-Seok...."
Okay, that explains it.
It wasn't enough that I wanted time for myself, and nothing to do with that Ho-Seok.,yet Juana still managed to shove him down my throat.
Can the universe stop being meaner?
"Have you seen a full-course meal? Omg, Ho-Seok ate those shoots up, man is effortlessly stunning. Kingsley can't stop smiling and hailing him with praises."
Juana rambled non-stop. She don't need to tell me what I already knew.
It Ho-Seok.
He is always serving. Eating and leaving no crumbs. But now, I have to pretend like I'm new to the Ho-Seok influential genre and handsomeness, and like he didn't rubbish my life a few minutes ago.
Judging from Juan's Ho-Seok syndrome, she might as well rupture my neck if I dared tell her what had transpired between Ho-Seok and me. I'm beginning to get scared for my life.
If Ho-Seok and Juana happen to kick things off, and he ends up revealing my ugly past and how I ruined him, Juana is my friend and assistant,but how sure am I she wouldn't spike my coffee with poison just to avenge Ho-Seok?
You never can tell, love can make us do crazy things.
Dear Karma, I know you can't be this mean, right?
My best friend having feelings for my Ex. Fucking kill me now.
"He is married." I pushed past her, God, what am I even saying?
"You can tell me that a million times, but I know a married man when I see one."
Really, she does
Okay, that was super terrifying. I need help.
I hurried my steps, enough with the Juana Ho-Seok salt rubbing me.
"Kathie, please. You never say no to me." Juana's brittle voice followed me up.
I'm about to give her my first big 'NO to whatever shit she was about to ask me.
"Just set us up on a blind date, please."
I choked on my saliva. I might be in slumberland, or hearing things cause she did not just....
I know I have done some shitty match-making in the past, like setting Kayla up on a blind date with Fay-Klenie CEO, and she ended up forgetting her fists on his perverted face. Don't know what transpired between the two, something about paying Kayla to act as his sex slave. Whatever shitty statement he had made riled up Kayla's hidden Mike Tyson, blows were flying in the air. It was a horrible experience.
Or was it the time I managed to set up Hana's nanny, Roxana up to that blind date with Grandpa Rox? My lame reasons were since they share the same homophones, that nanny Roxana might be the missing alphabet in Grandpa Rox's life, only to end up getting my ass whooped by Nanny Roxana after Grandpa Rox brought his cat to their flower garden date, and ended up resurrecting the poor woman's phobia.
She was rushed to the hospital, date was ruined. However, they ended up as gist buddy since Granpa Rox didn't love her enough to give up his cats, and Nanny Roxana didn't see herself as someone who would step inside Grandpa Rox's house that was dominated by cats. Everything resulted in them as gist partners, don't know if they were still buddies, I relocated from that estate after giving birth to Ha-na. But, nanny Roxana never stopped teasing me about my horrible date-matching with her experience.
I knew I had done some crazy things in the past. That was just part of being Bella. But right now, I'm about to burst Juana's bubbles. "Juana, you don't date. We all know the Juana's facts and fallacy.... Relationships can be tiring and time-consuming A big NO to Juana la casa.." I reminded her of her words and she chuckled.
Really, what was funny? Probably my death day.
"I know but I want to give it a try."
No fucking way. I stiffed, did I hear wrong? I must have fallen asleep after arguing with the devil's spawn and entered a vivid nightmare because there was no way Juana was trying to date Hoseok. Karma won't be this cruel.
Juana giving relationships a try. Something past Juana would rather chop her arms off than doing
Now I understand, and I hate Ho-Seok for it.
A stone fist squeezed my chest, but I kept my tone light. "That's good to hear." With that being said, I flashed her a fake smile, then walked out.
