Margaux (Xyna's part)[Part 2 of Set 1]I was woken by the loud chirping of the birds. I rubbed my eyes before getting up and go to the bathroom to take a bath and brush my teeth.After I took a bath, I immediately put my uniform on and tied my hair into a ponytail, I also applied a little powder on my face. I'm not using any lipstick or liptint, because it's not necesarry—my lips are pinkish enough.Just as I was coming down the stairs, I could hear the loud guffaw of mom, dad and my youngest brother Liam.Hades Liam Hutchinson, that's his name. I don't want to call him Hades, because it sounds demonic. You know, Hades the evil god of underworld in greek mythology.When I finally got down the stairs, they greeted me in unison.“Good morning.” I greeted back with a straight face, before sitting on the seat next to Liam.As I start eating, they still didn't stop guffawing as they're looking back at their pasts, as well as when we were young.For goodness sake, we were in front of the food, but they're laughing so hard as if there's no tomorrow. It's not that it's a bad thing. But-argh!I'm not a kill joy person. Honestly, I'm louder than them when we're not eating.“Braid, aren't you excited? This was your first day at school, right?” Dad asked.I nod. “It's not that I wasn't excited dad, it's just that today is just all about introducing” I said with a bored tone.“But your presence or attendance is still counted. It was not a good impression to your classmates especially to your proffesors if you've absent on your very first day. And didn't you said that your new year's resolution is to perfect your attendance?” I sighed and nodded. Dad was right.“Yes dad,” I smiled at him and he did the same. I continued eating again, while dad talk with mom and Liam again.When I finished eating, I waited for my younger brother Liam to finish eating.‘He knows we have a class and yet he still blabbering there, other than finishing his food immediately, tsk!’We are studying at the same university. But, I'm in the college department, while he was in high school. I'm 3 years older than him.“I'm done eating, my beautiful sister!” Liam vigorously said while wiping his mouth using the table napkin. I playfully rolled my eyes on him and giggle.“Okay, let's go!” He grabbed his bag and slung it over his shoulder. I took mine also and slung it over my shoulder. Liam's bag color is blue while mine is black. I don't know I just love black.We headed to the parking lot to use my car. Liam was still young to drive, so he doesn't have his driver's license yet. He is only 16, I am 19. He must reach 18 years old so he could drive freely.Liam sat in the shotgun seat. While I sat at the driver's seat of course.I insert the car key to the key hole and started the engine and left the mansion, heading our way to the university— to Diamond Skyle University."And ... cut!" the assistant director shout and clap the clapper. I parked my car.I went to the place where the other actors and actresses stands. It's not good to be out-of-place you know, but it's not that big deal to me.The Assistant Director walk towards our direction. “Great job, guys! The director will be happy, because you act very excellent. The laughter of Margaux's family, looks like real or genuine. And the face expression of Xyna is suitable for the emotions of her character—Margaux. Director Benjamin really did not mistaken for chosing you all! Excelent job!” she happily said.I mentally grinned. They say, if you want the movie to be successful, you must feel or understand what your character feels, so that the scenes and lines can penetrate the hearts of the viewers.Miss Faith stoop when her phone rang, it's Director Benjamin.“Hello Director, we're done.... The next scene set 2 is at Diamond Skyle University, right? We'll be heading there now, was it okay...? Okay" then she hung up.She faced us. “We'll be going to Diamond Skyle University for set 2,”***“Okay we'll go as its planned, Dwyne's car will enter the university first, he will go to the parking lot and park it. After a few seconds Xyna will be the next to enter. Maybe count 8 seconds before you enter the university. After it is the rest. Just wait for my signal before you enter the scene. You already knew the lines and scenes where you'll enter the scene, don't you? So, you already know what to do after you successfullyd parked your respective cars. I trust all of you that you can make your acting like a natural scene”“Yes, Director Benj.” we said in unison.And then, we prepared again and followed what was planned. We are just waiting for the signal when will we start.“Take 1 Set 2! 1 ... 2 ... 3 action!” Director Benj shout as he used the clapper to signalled us.When we saw the signal, we prepared ourselves. Dwyne together with his so-called sister enter the University.I have to count 8 seconds like what the director's said.1...2...3...4...I insert the key to the key hole again, and started the engine.5...6...7...8...As I finished counting the given amount of seconds that I had to count, I immedietely drove towards the academy together with my so-called brother.I smirked.‘Action's starts now. Hello and nice to meet you again, Margaux Braid. Bye-bye for now Xyna Alegre’I parked my car on the parking lot. Then we got out of my car.“Liam, do you want me to take you to your class” I asked. He shooked his head.“No need, Margaux. I'm big already. I can go myself” I chuckled and pat his head. Yeah, he's already big now.“Hey lil bro, even though you're big now. Don't you dare to cut your classes. If I heard that you cut your classes, you will get a punch in the face. And I also will tell it to mom and dad.” I threatened him. He grimaced.“You're really an amazona, Margaux. Of course, I will not cut my classes. I'm a good boy!” he said and place his index finger and thumb under his chin.I grinned at him and messed up his hair. “Let's go.”We started walking towards our respective destinations. Liam went to the Highschool Building, and I went to the College Department of course.---I was walking down the hallway, when suddenly something or should I say someone bump into me from behind. Making me fall to the floor, and thrown away the books that I was carrying.I looked at the person who I bumped onto, but I suddenly stunned and my heart skipped a bit.'H-He's so handsome'Mesmerized by the view, I can't help but to gape. Mamma Mia! I didn't know that such a beautiful creature like him exist! He's actually the perfect figure of Adonis!I felt my heart suddenly beats fast.Oh my! I think I've been love-at-first-sight to this man. He is so handsome! And he looks kind tho.“Ah, Miss?” I was brought back to reality and my eyes blinked as it spoke.Shocks, it was so embarrassing! But in all fairness, his voice was so handsomely calm to the point that I feel like I was in a cloud 9.I averted my gaze and did my best not to look at him again, because I might get stunned again by his good looks.I just picked up my books that
---TIME Check. 6:12 A.M. I know it's still early, but I'm used to waking up this early, because I practice boxing almost every day.After I take a bath, I wear a black hoodie and a jogging pants. I also brought a sport's bra. And bring an extra t-shirt.I went to the kitchen to prepare my breakfast. I cook an egg, bacon, and of course the rice. I prefer heavy meals because of my job. I'm an actress, I go to the gym early in the morning. Go to the location where we'll shoot after, then act. That's my daily routine every time I had new projects like movies, dramas, adaptations, commercials , etc. And it's very exhausting. If acting is as easy as you think, well let me say this. IT IS NOT.When someone missed the lines, forgot where they will enter the scene, or maybe they forgot what they'll act and many more, we will literally repeat and repeat at the beginning of the set, until we perfected it.When the rice and the eggs and bacon were cooked, I immediately
---WHEN I successfully arrived to Diamond Skyle University I immediately went straight to the parking lot and parked my car.After I parked I removed the car key to the key hole and excitedly grabbed my bag on the shotgun seat. Before I come out of my car, I first put some red liptint on my lips and some powder of course.I first scanned the whole place, before deciding to pick up my phone on my bag and give Vince a notice message that I'm already here.To: Pal{Hey, Vince! I am at the parking lot, now. Where are you?}A few seconds later my cellphone vibrated—a sign that I have a new received message. I looked at it.From: Pal{Oh, right. Just arrived. I can see you from here. I'm on your left side.}I immediately looked at my left and saw Vince leaning on his car while crossing his arms and staring at me.I smiled and energetically ran into him.“GOOD MORNING!” I vigorously greeted as I approached him. He just gave me a dazzling smile.
---I hope this will be the first and last time that we'll be together in a project, he's such a pain in the ass.“I don't have anyone with me” he said and pouted his lips.Eew! Does he think he'll look cute if he pout? Hell no! He looked like a duck!“As if I care! And-err, stop that” I disgustly said. I could not stand his ugliness, he's already ugly since then (atleast on my eyes), but he looks even more ugly!“Why? Because I became more handsome in your eyes, wasn't you? You can't resist my charm—” before he finished what he's saying I cut it off.“Hell no! I just can't bear to see a gorilla pout. It's disgusting, bro!” I said harshly. I know, I know, that was so harsh. But I need to, this man was overflowing with self-confidence and cockiness, sometimes it also needs to be reduced.“Just admit that I became more charming in your eyes and you have a crush on me, and you don't want others to see me that cute, because they might put me in their pocke
---“Hey! What do you think of me... a kid?” I said annoyingly. Why? 'Cause he just brought me here to... what is this place called? Was it Tom's War or Tom's Work.Ah, right! It's Tom's World! My bad. I don't really know the name of this arcade. I haven't been here even once, nor have I been able to enter. I'm just seeing it just when passing by while shopping. But I didn't come up with the idea to come here. Duh! For me its for kids only!“Why? Was children's the only one who plays here?”“Obviously?”“Of course, not! Look around there's also a bunch of teenagers playing. So, let's go!” he said and pulled my hand again. Like what the—?I took a deep breath. I can't believe this man! Really!‘I'll let you win today, you moron.’We went to the counter and he bought a coin like, I believe they call a token, then we start to seek for a machine we can play.We stopped at—what do ya call it? The one with a hand-like (crane) thingy and stuff toys insi
---It really is fun here in Tom's World. It is really entertaining for teens, children, or even adults. Jut like I said, I have never been here, not until now.If it's fun here, then there's more fun in Hongkong, Disneyland? They say it was the happiest place on Earth.Before we went to the basketball part, we bought some tokens again, it was all spent earlier when we played that claw machine. Yeah, such a waste of time but worth it.By the way, I know how to play basketball either. I'm not the person who can only do boxing as a sport! I can also play basketball.Thinking about basketball...I suddenly remembered Lloyd— my cousin, we used to play basketball together, but we can't now. He's gone. My favorite cousin who understands me is...gone.Lloyd is the only person who stayed by my side, aside from HER. Unluckily, I just got the news that he died because of heart failure way back 2017, when I was 19 years old.“Let's challenge, again? The one wi
---“Wanna put me in a box of glitter, and I'm just trying to get right outAnd now you're feeling so, so bitter, because I've let you down” I continued singing.I've always felt alone, empty, and numb. Why? Because they are my parents, they're always beside us, but I can't feel they're love. Yeah they're with me but their love is too high for me to reach, just like the sky. I can't reach their love, no, I actually can but that love was overpowered by the hate and shame that they felt on me. Shame because of what I've done. But they didn't know...that I've done all of that, just for her. For their loving daughter. Because I think maybe if I protect her, they'll be glad on me. That they will finally accept me, and give me love. But no! Instead, t-they...“And this storm is rising inside of meDon't you feel that our world's collideIt's getting harder to breath, it hurts deep inside”They suffocates me. I can hardly breathe because
---I felt my stomach grumbling so I told him to eat first. And he luckily agreed, afterall it's already 6:54 o'clock in the evening.We decided to eat in Chick-fil-A, this time. I have considerations you know. Afterall, I have my gratitude on him. He exchange all of the tickets we collected to that Harry Potter Collections. He didn't evenget anything.We ate quietly until we finished, not even a single word was said. Wow, so Dwyne can also be this quiet, huh? Why won't he do it everyday, so that he won't irritate me big time.After we fixed all our things we left the restaurant. And walked still quietly to the parking lot.It's strange. He seems to be thinking deeply. What will it might be? He's been like this ever since I finished singing. Don't tell me he still can't get over it?“Go ahead! See you again tomorrow on the set. Remember, don't use drugs, okay? So that you won't get high again tomorrow” I mocked. He chuckled.“All
