I wake up to a splitting headache and an urge to throw up...
"Grr Grr grr" I threw up almost everything inside me inside the closet and my stomach felt empty as I lunged for the basin.
Grabbing it, I turn on the faucet and watched myself in the mirror as I washed my face. A thought flashed through my mind and I smiled, remembering how swept off the girl I had met at the beach had been…
Even though I get that look almost every day and most of the people I had related with fawn over me, I still felt quite special to be watched like that. It stirred up a feeling in my stomach that I have never felt before. I had gone to the beach multiple times after, but I still couldn't remember the exact place we had met, so I quit searching and slowly forgot about her.
Alcohol really brings out the worst in me, I thought as I proceed to washing my hair then took a bath.
.... Two years later
Tearing open the box I had put aside earlier when they were unloading my belongings, I bring out a doll and some toys.
A feeling of nostalgia rushed through me and I subconsciously caress the doll that had been dressed up as Moana as my thoughts drifted off to the owner.
NOVEMBER 26, 2009
We had just gotten in a fight with one of the neighborhood kids and even though we lived in an estate, we always found a way to stir up trouble with the other kids.
Growing up, Cather had not been the best example of a good role model but somehow she managed to capture my heart. One time I had 'accidentally' told her that I had a crush on her and since then she had never let me hear the last of it.
My parents and hers are friends, and it was expected of me to protect her. Whenever my parents and I go over for dinner or vice versa, she would always insist on sitting with me. From an outsider's point of view it seemed normal but only I know the torturing I have to face the entire time.
"Edward you don't eat meat like that. You chew on it gently before eventually swallowing it".
"Ed, your thinking process is too slow and can't match mine, say how will you defend me in arguments
"Ed your arm's too thin and weak just like a girl's say how will you be able to protect me when the other girls come looking for trouble"
She had insisted I work out at a very young age and made sure I stayed on diet, learned how to cook and carry her bag around. She'll always put both her hands on her hips and say.
"Don't give me that look, You should be honored to carry my bag around"
Even though my classmates would have loved to mock and laugh at me, they didn't have the balls to as they were all aware of the terrible fate that awaits whoever did so.
Suddenly, something bad happened, and we were left with no choice than to relocate to Paris.
After 13 years, I am back but everything has changed so much that I couldn't locate Cather, the main reason I had come here, and I was left wondering whether it was or wasn't a good decision that I had come here.
...
I wake up to the sunlight creeping through the window into my room and I stand up to close the blinds. I sat back down and picked up my phone from the nightstand to see if I had any unread messages.
Furiously rubbing my head, I couldn't help but curse out loud as I made a run for the bathroom. I had completely forgotten that I had a shoot by 10 and now all I have to dress up and get my butt out of the house is ten minutes. How ironical.
I pulled up in the location and I heard people giggling, whispering and of course some were complaining when I arrived. As usual, I ignored them and went inside my dressing room.
By the time I had put on the costume and came out, the whole scene was crowded with fans so much that the director had to request more securities to avoid disrupting the order of the scene.
...
The shoot that was supposed to last one hour was prolonged to two because I couldn't get into character and I keep fumbling with my lines. I don't know why, but I haven't been in the right state of mind lately.
"OK... That's all for today" the director announced, and I was about to go change when he called me aside.
"Is something the problem?" He asked, and I'd be lying if I said nothing was.
Am not feeling too well" I lied, and he nodded in understanding.
"Get some rest. We'll do it again tomorrow" He consoled, and I nodded goodbye before leaving.
.....
Of course my car had been flooded with gifts when I got to where I parked it and I couldn't help but sigh as I told my assistant to dump it inside the minivan.
Lately, my feelings has been jumbled up so much that it started affecting my thinking process. A good example is when me who is known for having no NG's my entire career has to retake a simple scene tomorrow.
Lost in thoughts, my phone woke me back to reality as it vibrated continuously in my pocket. I swipe on the green button without even checking who the caller is as I bring the phone to my ear.
"Hello, I have found new information on the girl and I have mailed it to you"
Just that simple sentence was enough to light up my mood as I hurriedly hung up the phone and checked my mail.
