The Grand Mistress

"Gabbie, what's wrong?" Her two friends gave her a stare and although it meant nothing, for the Monteria heiress, it felt like they were both planning against her back. She was not the woman, El Tigre was in a relationship right?

"No…...nothing…" Her voice was shaking as she flushed a fake smile at the two. "I just remember I have to make a call..so I'll go to my room now….hmmm...you two just cry there okay?....bye!"

Gabriella bolted to the door, went to her bedroom immediately and locked the door. She then leaned her back on it and heaved a very deep sigh. What the heck is happening?

Still in denial of what she just saw, she took her laptop and searched for Primo Umbresio and reality hit her hard. On the web were pictures of the man whom she just secretly met a few days ago and all of  his life achievements. There were so many articles and news about him that Gabriella's mind felt like it was turning, overwhelmed by the truth and of all the information of the man.

"So he really is the nation's husband, Primo Umbresio!" Gabriella hissed. There's no more doubt to it, all the pictures that flooded the net tore all the indenials she had. So that man was so fucking popular and a soldier? 

Damn! Now that explains why he had such an appetite!

Reminiscing the night they were together, Gabriella remembered how he had such a big firm body and all this time she thought that was because he was a gym body. Turned out he was a soldier and so that explains why everything about him was hard. But...but….how could a man that has a built like Samson looked so fucking handsome?

Primo "El Tigre" Umbresio.

So that was his name. Even when she wanted to forget it and planned to forget about him totally, fate has found its way to make her somehow know. God! That man was so popular and yet she didn't even recognize him!

So as it looked like, Primo had updated his social site, announcing to everyone that he already has a woman. There was something inside her that wanted to hate the man, for how he claim to be then officially committed when he just sneaked past behind whoever his woman was  and have a sex escapade with her. Does she even know?

Surely, she wasn't the woman he was talking about because aside from she had not contacted him any longer—they did not aslo talk about having a serious relationship worthy of announcing to the whole country. Right?

She wanted to believe such a proposition, there was simply no reason why she would not. Out of all that happened to her a few days ago, there was nothing more real than the fact that she was NOT the woman El Tigre was talking about. That's just absurd!

  However, even when she was certain she wasn't, she still felt strange and definitely terrible especially when two of El Tigre's avid fans were living with her and they swore to kill the woman who had broken their hearts.

The next morning, Lucy arrived at Starlight Entertainment all dressed in black. She had worn no other shade than the color of mourning—head down to toes and even on her face there was a little veil, the one those celebrities in the late 80's wore. Together with such an eye-catching outfit, she too was carrying in her right hand a beautiful doll, Serafina, whose dress and make up suits the singer's theme for the day.

Lucy's fans and admirers of course immediately took notice of it and they all know she was wearing that because just last night, the El Tigre announced that he was already taken. Singer Lucy had openly expressed in the media and fans long before that El Tigre was her ultimate crush and so with the recent shocking update, they all wished to get her thoughts about it only to see her wearing a mourning classy outfit the very next day.

"Singer Lucy, can you explain to us why you came in that outfit today?" One reporter came to ask.

"You might have guessed how my heart was feeling right now with the news of El Tigre having a woman," Lucy sniffed a cry on national television looking absolutely classy. Her outfit that day, immediately became the nation's hit and topic next to El Tigre's relationship update. "I am wearing this to mourn for the our love that never get to realize,"

"Oh my singer Lucy you are trending again," The reporter told her admiringly. When pictures of singer Lucy were posted in a popular site, many fans of El Tigre imitated her, even socialites and celebrities alike. This was not the first time though, as Lucy had always been a trendsetter and right then, she just proves that she remains the trendsetter queen.

"Of course because my outfit today shows that even when you are broken-hearted, you still are beautiful," She said and posed, giving every photographer a good angle of her. "This is what we call self love, hashtag Brokenheartedgoddess,"

"Singer Lucy, many had been asking about the doll you are with," The reporter asked as many had been interested in it. The doll, like Lucy, was wearing mourning clothes and yet, she too was classy and beautiful. 'They are all interested in it.

"Oh this is Serapina, my comfort doll," Lucy stated. Truth was, Gabriella dropped the doll last night in her room and it was the beautiful doll that gave Lucy the idea to wear mourning clothes the next day. She just wanted to look like a doll, still beautiful despite her broken  heart. She knew very well that Gabriella owned it and that her name was Serafina.

"She's the inspiration for my outfit today," Lucy narrated. "Last night, when I learned about El Tigre's relationship status, I got so heartbroken and when I looked at the mirror and saw my tearjerker face, I felt more horrible. Serafina, then made me realize that you still have to be beautiful and classy despite such a broken heart,"

"Wow Serafina seemed to symbolize self love despite  a downfall," The reporter wrapped up. 

"Indeed she is," Lucy smiled bitterly and gave Serafina a pat. "If you are all asking where I bought her and who made her outfit, a friend of mine owned Serafina and she was the one who made her outfit. She's the real broken hearted goddess,"

After Lucy's interview, many hashtags all related to Lucy's mourning dress outfit that day went viral. Even Serafina had become so popular and the #brokenheartedgoddess became a hit trend that day. 

At Lucy's penthouse

"Look at her, she stole my doll and put up a good drama today," Gabriella watched Lucy on the kitchen's television while Simione was cooking something. "Aish. Singer Lucy is such a drama queen,"

"Don't you love it? Serafina became instantly famous," Simione took notice. She knew the moment Lucy left the penthouse that today's entertainment industry will have a huge uproar because of her. Lucy had always been like that, she loved everything outrageous and scandalous. Most of all she loves being famous and being such a drama queen was her style.

"Oh yeah, I checked instagram and Serafina already has fake accounts made by fans," Gabriella noted. "The marketplace app was also full of people asking around where to buy Serafina,"

"Well you know what, why don't you just create a legit account for Serafina," Simione suggested. Since Serafina was part of Gabriella's collection, she assumed that she must be hard to find in the market and might be an antique as Gabriella had such a tastes of unique dolls, "Since you don't have anything to do these days why don't you just show off your collections of dolls and dresses you made for them,"

"I'll think about it," Gabriella shrugged and opted to change the channel of the television because Lucy on the screen was becoming over-dramatic. She pressed the button to change it from channel to channel until she landed on a flash report that immediately caught her eye.

"Flash Report: Han's Scintillait already released the date of Hawk Monsanto and Feather Han's wedding. The said ceremony as per Han's Scintillait representative will take place at the 23rd of October this year,"

Simione, who was then cooking, halted it and turned to the television with a dim expression. For the past few days, she took a break from their Feather Project to catch up with her assignment and readings in law school. The last time she checked, the ballerina bitch and the M Conglomerate's president left Mondrew City prematurely. She didn't really know the reason why they had cut off their well planned vacation but she suspected it might have something to do with her pestering them around.

She even went thinking they had a huge fight that's why they left early but the news right then rendered her assumption false as it turned out, the two, even when she managed to get between their pre-honeymoon vacation was all working fine and even continued their shameless engagement and now, out of nowhere, a wedding date was announced.

"Sisi," Gabriella turned to Simione, "It looks like Feather the bitch had managed to fix things out,"

"Then she'll regret it," Simione swore and balled her fist.
