CHAPTER 21
Elias turned to see the kid and help him find his mom but he's not there anymore.
He looked around and he saw the little kid looking back at him with a woman who is holding his little hand.
The woman's hair is purple making him confused. What a weird taste.
He looked again to the kid, the little kid wave at him and smile cutely. He can't help but to smile too, he watched them as they leaves.
"Where did you went? That's why I don't want you to walk, you should have stayed in the cart" Thana said madly.
"But I saw banana milk, I want to buy it" Alas said pouting.
"You should've told me, did something happened?" she asked worriedly scanning Alas.
"No mom, I saw a man. He gave me candy" Thana’s brows furrowed, Alas showed her the candy.
She was about to get it from him when he put it back to his pocket.
"You are not allowed to eat candy, your dad will scold you" she said trying to get the candy out of his pocket.
"I won't mommy, I will keep this" Thana felt something weird but she choose to don't mind it and drive their way home.
-
Thana is watching the television when Jio arrived, she stood up and went to the door to greet him.
Jio went out and smiles at the sight of Thana, he also saw Alas running towards the door "Don't run Alas" he said smiling.
"How's your day? You look tired" she asked.
"Yeah, we got lot of things to do. We're working on a fashion show and it's huge, it's this weekend" Jio said giving her a peck on her cheek.
"Really? Why so sudden?"
"We got a lot of designs for this season and we also got a new global ambassador"
"Really? Who?" she asked curiously.
"Lexie Manzano" Thana’s smile disappeared when she heard Lexie’s name, she is shock at the mention of a friend's name.
"Why? Is there something wrong? There's an after party so we have to attend it"
"D-do we r-really have to come?" Thana is stuttering, she can't meet her and her friends. She knows something will happen if ever they meet, and she don't want it.
"Of course, it's huge we have to be there. Let's go, I promised you dinner" Jio guide Thana to the kitchen with Alas on his arms.
-
It’s already weekend, and Thana is getting anxious as the time pass. She don't want to go but she can't reject Jio , she knows he needs her there.
Jio came home early and went to Thana’s room, he saw her their sitting in front of her mirror "You didn't get change?"
Thana turned to look at Jio, she gave him a weak smile making Jio worried "You don't want to come?" he asked.
"It's not like that, ahm..." Thana is hesitating if she'll tell Jio, she sighed and walked towards him "I know Lexie Manzano"
"You know her?" he asked surprised.
"She was my friend, I don't want to meet her" Jio sighed and hug her, she accepted it and hug him back.
"You forgot, you're not Thana anymore. You're Tamara, you want to come back right? You can't avoid them forever"
Thana sighed and walk backward to face Jio, she smile and nod. Jio smile back and close the door.
Thana pick her YSL outfit, a black fitted leather long dress. She choose to let free her purple hair and grab her clutch bag.
After changing Thana went to Alas’ room and she saw him playing with her bunny stuff toy. She went to him and change him into a suit.
She told Jio that she won't come to the fashion show, maybe the after party she will. Jio respected her decision and went there.
-
"You have to come with me Elias” Tiffany said.
"I told you, I'm busy" Tiffany is convincing Elias to escort her to a fashion show but he won't. She'd been trying to tell him that this is important "You can choose Levi to escort you, he's always available if its you"
"But I don't want him! Whatever, you'll have to come or else" Tiffany angrily replied.
"What?" Elias stop typing his laptop and stare at Tiffany who is sitting on the sofa.
Tiffany wasn't intimidated to him but instead she stare back at him and smirk "I will do anything to make you come"
Tiffany stood up and grabbed her bag, she left the office banging the door. Elias looked at the door and lean back to his chair.
-
Thana arrived at the venue, it's a hotel ballroom and there are lots of important people wearing there classy gowns.
Jio saw them as he talk with his guests and walk toward them, Alas is with his babysitter behind Thana.
Jio told the babysitter that she can sit on the table designated to them and hold Alas’ hand.
Thana is nervous and she can't help but to roam her eyes to the place, if ever there will be someone who can recognize her "I need to go to the restroom" she said.
Jio nod and he walk with Alas towards their table. She roam her eyes again and walk towards the outside of the ballroom.
She went straight to the restroom and check herself in the mirror, she stare at herself and flash a weak smile "You can do it, you're Tamara"
"Wow unbelievable, you owned the show earlier Lexie"
Thana was talking to herself when suddenly she heard noises coming inside the bathroom. It's a familiar voice, and she heard the name she don't want to.
She went inside the cubicle and locked it, her chest went up and down because of nervousness.
"You became a global ambassador now, we're so proud of you" it was Jhana’s voice.
"Thank you guys, thank you for always supporting me" Lexie said happiness is evident in her voice.
"I still remember when you were just a freelance model, you'll have to work for yourself and we can't support you a lot because we have something to do too" Jennyfer said reminiscing the old memories.
"Yeah, I got lucky I was scouted to the agency"
"Why did you choose his agency?" Jhana asked.
"You shouldn't have chosen that as$hole's agency" Jennyfer said.
"I want to but their agency is the most popular, and it's nothing to me. I'm not his ex anyway" Lexie jokingly exclaimed.
"I should have killed that as$hole" Jennyfer replied.
"I thought you don't like him, and that as$hole has a name. It's Levi Tomlinson" Jhana said teasingly.
Thana listened to their whole conversation, trying not to make a sound.
"And he's not the one who choose me" Lexie revealed.
"He didn't? Then who?" Jennyfer asked.
Lexie didn't respond making the place dead silent, Thana thought they left already. She was about to unlock the cubicle's door when she heard a sigh.
"It was Elias" Lexie added.
Thana stopped and froze still, she felt something in her heart hearing his name. It's been so long since she heard his name, and she can't help but to be shock.
"I hate him the most, don't ever mention him" Jennyfer said angrily.
"Sorry" Lexie apologized.
"He didn't want it to happen Jennyfer" Jhana said.
"I don't fcking care, he's the reason we lost a friend. Don't try to make him clean because we all know he's the reason why everything happened" Jennyfer left mad, Jhana looked at her as she left the restroom while Lexie just looked at her toes.
"Let's go Lexie, this is your day. You have to be happy" Jhana tried to cut the mood.
Thana heard their footsteps leaving and that's when she burst, a tear fell in her eye. She opened the door and look at straight to the mirror.
She don't want to be weak, she have to be strong and face whatever happens. She remembered when she said she wants a revenge to Jio, he agreed and he wants to help but it stopped when she knew she has Alas in her tummy.
But now, nothing is stopping her. She'll do anything just to get her revenge, she'll crush him and make him cry blood.
She wash her hands and walk towards the venue.
-
Tiffany is already in the venue, the fashion show already ended but Elias is still no where near the venue.
She'd been contacting him but he won't answer it, she went outside to call him again when she saw a woman getting out of the restroom.
It caught her attention because of the color of her hair, it's purple. She wasn't planning to mind it not when she turned, she drop her phone near her ears seeing the woman in front of her.
The woman saw her but she don't recognize her, she just look at her and then continue walking back to the venue.
Tiffany can't believe she saw her again, it was Thana. She's sure it was Elias’ wife, it's the same face and only the hair color change.
"Hello"
She heard Elias’ voice on the phone, he answered it at last. She picked it and put it on her ear.
"I already told you I won't come, stop calling me"
"You will" she said plainly
"I already called Levi for you, he'll be there any minute to escort you"
"You will regret it if you'll not come"
"I won't, Levi is the better escort. In fact he really are going their, one of he's idol got named as the new global ambassador"
"You will come here, I don't care about Levi" she said with finality.
"Can you please stop bugging me Tiff? I already rejected you, I won't come even if you'll tell me a thousand times"
"Even if I tell you I saw her?"
"What? You saw who?"
Tiffany stop talking for a while and smirk, she put her phone away from her ears for a while and heave a breathing before putting it back to her ears.
"I saw her ..."
"I saw your wife, Thana"
