The information was still processing inside her mind. That was why it was like she was in a state of shock, somewhere in between denial and acceptance. She couldn’t believe what was happening, and was already convinced that the universe was playing games with her. It seemed like yesterday when she was thinking about that, about people shipping her with Raphael. Why the guy? Why not anyone else? Why not Carl? She certainly had more interactions with Carl, her co-actor, than the former. She just couldn’t understand.
“What’s up with people?” she asked as she watched Theresse searching through the laptop. After knowing about the fact that people were already shipping the both of them, she was quick to ask Theresse about it, and the girl was already assisting her, wanting to show her to video clips that could possibly be the reason why.
They were trending on twitter. The series itself was also trending, but Raphael and her, specifically, were trending on Twitter. Apparently, a schoolmate of them before thought that it would be great to share a picture of them to the public. She couldn’t really remember when the picture was taken specifically, but in there, they were in the same table, eating together. She was certain that they didn’t eat together alone in school, though, since they never did that without other people. The picture was cropped, it was obvious, but of course, it would be easy for people to think that they were really eating together.When she saw that on twitter, she felt a huge desire to create a new account, and to clear things out, that they weren’t on a “date” unlike what other people were saying. Of course, that would be a dangerous thing to do. It would look like as if she was being defensive. She remembered what Rory told her. It was true that she coul
It felt like there were some fireworks inside her chest as she was getting her hair and make-up down. That was the first time that she was getting ready for an invitation. In fact, that was the first time that a tv show invited her to be their main guest. That was why she couldn’t stop herself from feeling a little nervous about it, but at the same time, she was excited. She didn’t have a personal hair and make-up artist yet because who was she to begin with? So far, only the ones who had been longer in the industry, and the ones who had already built their name have their own artists. She was looking forward to experiencing that in the future. That was why she was there, remember? She was done sulking. She was done feeling anxious. She knew that she was there because she deserved to be there, and no one, not even her ex, could stop her. She had already started getting more in
She felt like she was floating on clouds the moment the show ended. There were even several people from the audience who wanted to take a picture with them. That was the first time that people were actually ecstatic with the thought of wanting to take a picture with her, well, as an artist. She had already experienced quite the same thing way back in college since she was an active theatre club member as well, and being an active member of the theatre back then meant that people knew her, and a lot even idolized her. But that feeling was way different than the feeling that she felt at that time. People were shouting for her name, “Tim! Timothee! Look this way!” It felt like she was under the spotlight, and people were happy to see her. She even forgot that Raphael was literally standing beside her as well.
Time flew faster when she was no longer pressured to do things. Sure, after every good news that had happened, and the more her name became even more popular among the netizens, it meant that there should be even more pressure for her. She didn’t know why, but she could feel the need to do good in order to prove herself worthy of the attention that she had been getting. Of course. She just couldn’t get herself to do the bare minimum, especially now that people were already exerting time and effort towards her. Her schedule was already fixed. By the time that they’d finally fly back to Metro meant that she was meant to do celebrity things already, although she was still having second thoughts calling herself one since she was still a new face in the industry. She had different guestings and differe
Even when she had already told the two girls that she was already fine, that the tweet was no longer bothering her, they still asked from time to time whether she was already feeling alright. She couldn’t have a heart to tell them that it was really bothering her a lot because she couldn’t even explain what she was feeling. She couldn’t just tell them that she felt as if it wasn’t just an ordinary hate post, that there was something behind it, or at least something that could happen in the future. Something bad.That was why even when she couldn’t really get it off her mind, she chose to act as if everything was alright already. “You guys are being paranoid. I was just taken aback, that’s it,” she said. “It’s totally fine now. I’m fine now. Don’t worry so much, okay? Come on. Let’s just go out and eat and drin
There was no word that could describe how bad she was feeling when they were on their way home. It wasn’t just the hangover. In fact, even when her head had been throbbing because of how much she drank the night prior which even caused her to blackout once again. She really needed to control herself next time because even when she knew that she was safe there or that the people that she was with didn’t really have any malicious intent towards her, who knew what things she could say or do during that time. Even when she could feel an intense feeling of wanting to know what happened the time when she blacked out, she chose not to because it would only make her feel worse about herself.Rory couldn’t tell her anything as well, though, as she also drank a lot and also blacked out just like her. The two of them were even part of the ones suffering because of the immense han
She wasn’t certain why, but Raphael was surely acting weird towards her. It was weird in a sense that he was no longer the annoying guy who seemed to like seeing her suffer. In fact, she could even say that he was good towards her, not just decent but good. She noticed that a lot, especially when they were already back shooting around Metro. That was why when Ngel asked her how it had been, whether there was something bad that happened before her and Raphael back in Siargao, she didn’t know what to answer.Deep inside her, there was that urge to not tell the guy that her ex-boyfriend suddenly changed from what seemed like overnight. What else could she tell? How was she supposed to react to the guy’s sudden change of behavior? Even Rory had noticed already. “Have you two finall
More pictures of them in college started to spread on the internet, and that no longer surprised Timothee because for sure, the majority of their companions way back in college already knew about the two of them as actors and actresses. But it wasn’t that she was accusing those people about the spread of those pictures. It could literally be anyone, even the ones that she didn’t really interact a lot back then. Besides, it would be useful to start blaming people about it since it had already been done, and it wasn’t like she didn’t expect that in the first place.Some high school pictures of her and Raphael were also on the internet as well, but they were the kinds that didn’t really look like they were in a relationship or even in a secret relationship. They were just regular pictures that happened to have the two of them in a single frame. But when
