The Creator of Mircle
"Isn't it miracle? You got back your five points in very last minutes!"
"No! It is not!" I said. "The directors of Metro City are picky. They dislike my idea, but they press another five buttons? Something wrong about it!"
"Or maybe you are just thinking too much! Your idea is not bad at all! It's nice. I like it" said Mario again.
He cheered me up again since I was back from the stage. Even he is my competitors he never showed his competitive.
"You've gotten five, I got five too, Bobby got four, Ryu got four even his father is one of director. It's not bad at all. You've still have chance to win this competition!"
"Manuela got eight, remember?" Ryu exclaimed. "She's gotten a perfect score!"
"Oh, common don't be so pessimistic! Each of us still have chance to win. Miracle is await ahead!"
Miracle? Is it really miracle in the world? Who has create miracle for me today? It's just happened or something wrong waiting ahead?
"Manuela? Don't you join us?" asked Mario to her.
Four of us keeps talking about what had happened on stage. We totally forgot about her.
"Oh, sorry I can't join! My boyfriend is waiting. I will go with him. Is it ok?"
"Sure, go ahead!"
Manuela waved her hand, leaving four of us.
"Jesus, who is his boyfriend? Is he handsome?" asked Mario.
"He is not only handsome but also special!" Ryu pointed on a car passed by.
A super car with young beautiful women inside with his lover. Manuela and
"Oh My God, He is…"
"David Cannes, Marketing director of Metro City. He is one of our judges"
Seeing her sat on the car, my mind suddenly think. Is it the reason why she got 8 points? Because she is director lover? She manipulated her lover to give her score? Or it just…
"Never think about it!" Ryu warned us.
We said nothing but he seemed know what were in our mind.
"Metro City is a big company with strict regulation. Not because you are having relative there, you may enter or manipulated something! If you want to impress them, impress with your skill. Not your connection!"
"I think he is correct, He is son of director Ruichi Kotaro but he's only got four points. Manuela is really something in design!"
Ryu sighed. He doesn't seem ok. Being director's son and failed, it will be harder than what ordinary people think. His life is not easy after this.
In a futuristic hall, a man talked to a lady brutally.
"I want to meet him!"
"No one ever met him, CEO Mark! If you have something to asked, please tell me"
Mark stood desperately! As CEO of Metro City he has full responsible for what had happened in competitions. Other directors questioned his capability! He allowed a girl with no talent home with five points! Even she won the vote and failed, but the new spread already. Directors were not happy about the news. If something like this can be happed, doesn't close other miracle happed too.
"Linah! I'm CEO here. You know what? I must explain to those idiots' directors about this. Your master called me after we were shut down the light! What kind of miracle he forced happened now?"
"Mark, you know the rule! You might not questioned his order! Just did it! It's like what you said! Even she won the vote, her idea is nothing. Her points will always under Manuela's points!"
"Linah you!"
Mark stopped his word! He touched his fore head. He looked on the big room behind Linah. Room 'of Metro City Chairman. The master of the company. The one and only person who never appeared on public. He also known as Mr. Ghost.
"Is he truly a ghost?"
Linah didn't answer. She continued do her job with laptop. Mark took his leave. He knew, Mr. Ghost is not there. He just wasting his time.
In the car, David received a call from Mark. He didn't seem happy.
"You got the answer?" asked Manuela.
"No, He has nothing to say"
Richella's scores is something. Why Mr. Ghost did gave her five points? Did he want to warned directors about his position? Did he knew her? What made his mind change so easily?
"If, He is not our chairman I will fire him easily!"
Manuela stopped his lover word! She need to do it for she knows. Their live will be in danger, if the ghost hear.
"This old man, is truly weird. He controls us from somewhere unknown. He orders us like a God. Who is he actually? He silently controls this kingdom behind the king. Rumors says, even the king himself, never met him"
"I guess he is king of the king here" Manuela chocking. "Look, all investors vote on me! My design will be the only one. What are you afraid of? Her design is nut. Who will vote on her?"
"You underestimated Ghost! He is the one who can change anything evens we are disagree!"
"Then…" said Manuela excitedly. "Let's make him vote on me"
Along the way back to their mansion, Ryu keeps warning Richella about Manuela. He has bad feeling about her.
"Eight of judges agree with her, It is big possibility she will do something to you. Remaining David with her, it's not impossible she will trick you!"
"Hey! Mr. Insecure, what makes you thinks about it? Are you jealous or what?" said Bobby.
"No. I don't" his protest. "But, The one who gave her score must be someone untouchable. Be careful!"
Ryu leaves three of them. He rushes to the car stopped behind. Someone picks him home. It was first time, he talked much about other. Worried about other too. Before, Ryu never looked panic like this.
"Is something raise his anger? He never leaves us like this" asked Mario.
"I don't know, maybe he needs breaks"
