C1 Beginning

Faye’s Point of View.

Before, my life was so peaceful. No pain, no tears. No anger, no sadness. Only enjoyment and pure bliss.

Not until he came…

He loved me first but I fell harder. I thought he was the one for me but I was wrong. I didn’t know he would come into my life only to fool me, hurt me, and destroy me.

The girl he had loved before, has turned into a mature, fiercer, and braver woman. The old Faye De Leon they have known is gone. Here’s the new me, the new Faye.

The unbreakable and the better one…

***

After two years, I never imagined that I’d be back in the country. But of course, I should be. Because I want to face them. I want them to taste my sweetest revenge.

The bubbly, caring and lovable girl they all used to know had gone now because I've changed. I became a better version of myself.

A completely different person they won't exactly recognize.

Well, thanks to them. It’s because of what they did to me. Although I'm glad that I can finally say I’ve moved on. I left all of our memories in the past. There’s no more sorrow living in my heart because it’s full of anger and hatred.

All I want right at this moment is a vengeance. So, now that I’m coming back, I want you to prepare because it’s payback time…

"It's good to be back," I mumbled to myself as the cold air touched my skin.

I stayed in Korea for two years to move on, probably. But since I’m back in the Philippines, I swear to not leave ever again.

I'm currently at the bar, Hazel's business. Sa parents niya itong bar pero pinamana na sa kaniya so basically, siya na ang nagma-manage. She invited me and Ella to come over to celebrate my return.

Pagkapasok ko sa bar, as usual, all eyes on me. I didn't bother to give them a single glance. I walked straight, ignoring everyone shooting their shots. Ang suot ko ngayon ay isang black daring slit dress na kita ang gilid ng legs.

Napahinto na lang ako sa paglalakad nang may babaeng bigla na lang humarang sa dinaraanan ko.

"You, slut!" singhal sa akin ng babaeng 'yon.

"Excuse me?" Napataas ang kilay ko sa inasta niya. "Do I know you?"

Who's this bitch in front of me?

"What a whore! Tignan mo nga 'yang suot mo, kulang na lang maghubad ka!"

"Wait, bakit? Mamamatay ka ba kung ganito ang suot ko?" I asked sarcastically. "Wala ka bang maisuot at nangingialam ka? Have a life and mind your own goddamn business.”

"Sorry, miss. Babe, come on," singit ng isang lalaki sabay hila sa babaeng kaharap ko.

Pinagmasdan ko lang sila habang unti-unting sumisilay ang nakakalokong ngisi sa labi ko. I think I know the reason why she’s acting like a warfreak.

"Don't tell me naiinggit ka dahil ako ang tinitingnan ng boyfriend mo at hindi ikaw?" I smirked sarcastically.

My God! This bitch is so pathetic!

"Y-You!"

She tried to pull my hair but I immediately avoided her kaya nadapa siya. Ginamit ko ang pagkakataon na ’yon upang hablutin ang buhok niya saka ko siya iniharap sa akin.

"You messed with the wrong one, bitch." I irritatedly said. "Kung ayaw mong tumitingin sa kung sino-sinong babae 'yang boyfriend mo, try mong takpan ang mga mata niya at itali mo sa 'yo sa tuwing dadaan ako. Another thing, if you're envious because of the clothes I am wearing, why don't you also buy it so you can make sure you get your boyfriend's attention?"

Then, I walked out and left her dumbfounded there. Of course, it created a scene kaya nagkumpulan ang mga tao at pinaligiran kami. I saw Ella and Hazel from afar with their amused faces.

"Woah! Ikaw ba talaga 'yan, beb? Weh? Hindi nga?" pangangasar ni Hazel at pumalakpak pa.

"You changed a lot, beb!" Ella praised. "But I hope you remain as our best friend."

They both hugged me tight. I guess, mabago man ako, when it comes with my family and them, I'll still be the same.

"Of course!" I assured them. "No matter what, I’m and will always be your best friend."

"The hell, Faye! Sa wakas, nakabalik ka rin. You're so unfair, ni hindi mo man lang kami sinabihan. Wala rin tayong connections. Kung hindi pa namin tinanong si Manang Lucy ay hindi pa namin malalaman ang bagong number mo," reklamo ni Hazel at ngumuso.

"I just wanted to refresh my mind and be alone by myself. You know what I had experienced before, right?"

"Yes, we understand your reason. So, how's your two years stay in Korea?" Ella asked.

"Well, at first, it didn't go well. But after a year, I can say that it was fun staying in Korea. I've changed so much. I became stronger than before." I flashed a smile.

"Congratulations to you, beb! We're happy you're okay and doing well. But let’s go to the exciting part, I know what you're thinking. When will you face them?" Hazel smirked while drinking her juice.

She really knows me so well. Parehas yata ang takbo ng utak namin kaya alam niya na kaagad ang nilalaman ng isipan ko. Napangisi ako habang mapaglarong hinahalo ang inumin ko.

"Sooner or later, I'll be back with my sweetest revenge…"
