Acid Pixie Aesthetic

The night before I was supposed to marry the heir to the Moretti family, I found a string of ninety-nine filthy texts on my fiancé Leo’s phone. A woman named Ava Collins, telling him she loved him. Shameless. Desperate. She was begging him to call off our wedding, threatening to kill herself if he went through with it. I didn’t waste a second. I shoved the phone in his face and demanded an explanation. The silence stretched for an eternity before he finally broke. “Her brother was Liam. My underboss. He took a bullet for me. My bullet. I promised him I’d look after her.” "Jennifer, we grew up together. You know it’s you. It’s always been you. I swear, I’ll handle it. I’ll cut her off." I searched his eyes, hunting for the lie. I swallowed the acid in my throat and chose to believe him. The wedding was on. This was bigger than us. It was a treaty signed in blood between two families. And God help me, I still loved him. But on our wedding day, as we stood at the altar, vows on our lips, Leo got the call. It was her. Ava. On a bridge, threatening to jump. Demanding he come. Now. The diamond ring, a breath away from my finger, clattered to the stone floor of the church. Not a word. Not a single explanation. He just left. Left me, our families, our future... left me standing alone at the altar. Through a blur of tears, I screamed after him, "Leo, if you walk out that door, we are done!" His only reply, tossed over his shoulder, “She needs me.” He never looked back. Carrying his child, I vanished from his world and never looked back.

My grandfather, Terry Sims, suffered from bipolar disorder and was prone to anger and mood swings. My mother, Catherine, was his only chill pill. On the day they were hunted down by enemies, my mom went into early labor and lost her life in an attempt to save him. Devastated, my grandfather could not see a way out of his disorder and poured all his love into me. He would pull out the tongues of those who mocked me and fed them to the dogs. The families of those who hurt me would meet their end. It was known to the people of Mistvale that the granddaughter of Terry Sims was untouchable. Due to my congenital heart disease, he reluctantly sent me abroad for medical treatment. After my surgery, I rushed back to his side for his birthday, thinking of giving him a surprise. However, I was mistaken for a gold digger by a carer and locked in the basement. “Of all the things you can do for your age, you throw yourself at men. Since your parents won’t restrain your behavior, I’ll have to do it for them.” She pulled out my tongue, dumped acid all over me, and dug out my snewly transplanted heart to give as a birthday gift to my grandfather, who had been waiting for my return. “Mr. Sims, the skank tried to impersonate Ms. Sims, but I got everything sorted out for you.”

Till death do us part Betrayal, the acid that destroys all without hope of repair The bond once sealed with love and trust now hangs by a thread of pleas and regret Trust, once lost is never seen in the same face Again Hope is all that lasts in pain and most sadly in vain Only time can tell if there ever will be redemption and restoration The wedding bells that rang five years prior, seem to have worn off its charm and joy in the lives of Ethan and Patricia. Mistakes and disregard have strained whatever it was that bound them together. Realisation comes rather late, and a new beginning is too far gone to reach, but mistakes need to be learnt from, and time surely, must go on.

Ang pag-ibig ay isang laro na puno ng hiwaga at roller coaster. Si Champagne Miranda, ang nag-iisang anak ng bilyonaryo at tagapagmana ng Miranda Empire, na nagmamay-ari ng sikat na restaurant chain at pastry outlet sa buong bansa. Si Champagne ay isang dalaga, napabayaan sa kusina ngunit pinalaki ng mag-asawang Mercy at Herbert, mga bilyonaryo at sikat na chef. 5 years niyang crush si Stephan, ang anak ng kanilang driver, at ang kanyang unang pag-ibig. Ngunit sa likod ng matatamis na ngiti at force marriage, isang masakit na lihim ang unti-unting sumira sa kanyang puso. Natikman ni Champagne ang pinakamatinding sakit – pagtataksil mula sa lalaking pinakaminahal niya. Sa kanilang mismong tahanan, nakita niyang pinaglalaruan siya ng asawang si Stephan at ang kabit nitong si Pia Vasquez. Ang tagpong iyon ang nagbukas ng sugat na hindi lamang tumagos sa kanyang puso kundi nagdulot ng trahedyang nawala sa kanya ang pinakamahalagang bagay sa kanyang buhay – ang kanyang anak. Sa gitna ng dilim, isang estranghero ang naging sagot sa kanyang panalangin. Si Vash Delos Santos, isang tall, dark, and handsome billionaire at isang cosmetic surgeon na may-ari ng Vlash Aesthetic, sikat na cosmetic surgery clinic sa Bangkok at sa Pilipinas. Isang makapangyarihan at magiting na cosmetic surgeon ang nagbigay sa kanya ng pagkakataong bumangon mula sa pagkakadapa. Sa tulong ni Vash, hindi lamang muling nabuo ang kanyang pagkatao – nabago rin ang kanyang anyo. Ngayon, si Champagne ay hindi na ang mahina at inosenteng babaeng minsang minanipula ng kasinungalingan. Siya ay naging isang matatag, makapangyarihan, at kaakit-akit na reyna, handang harapin ang kanyang mga kaaway. Ngunit sa kanyang puso, may nananatiling tanong: sa paghihiganti ba siya tunay na makakatagpo ng kapayapaan? O sa piling ni Vash, ang lalaking nagbigay ng liwanag sa kanyang madilim na kahapon, siya ay matututo ulit magmahal?
