BEAUTY IN DISGUISE - CHAPTER 115&116
★★★★★
NEXT DAY, A VVIP RESTAURANT**
Gennie’s laughter filled up the whole place, that’s what he has been doing since the incident yesterday.
He won’t stop laughing anytime he thinks about it and though he wants to pity her but, another part of him thinks she deserves it.
Jules is currently at the hospital, she slipped into a dangerous coma and the doctors confirmed that she has a slim chance of living even till now.
“Pity the poor girl at least” Echo said and Gennie stopped laughing.
” Seriously I want to do that but I don’t know how to, she deserves it seriously” Gennie said and started laughing again.
” Do you think I meant it when I told you to pity her?” Echo said and they both laughed out loud.
Only Genny and Quincy aren’t present, they went for their first $h00t together.
“You guys should stop talking about Jules” Red said.
“Ok ok, Echo let’s talk about you, where did you learn that spider-girl dance?, It’s dangerous” Gennie said.
” It’s cobweb concept, i developed it myself” Echo smiled proudly.
” Really?, It’s brilliant!, You really deserve that award” Red said.
Yeah, she got an award yesterday after Jules was rushed to the hospital, BEST CRAZY DANCER OF THE YEAR.
“But Jules thought it was child’s play, she wanted to imitate you” Gennie started laughing again.
” I remember that elementary poem, up I go, I go up” Echo laughed.
“This time around it’s down I go, I go down” Gennie almost fell from his chair as he laughed.
” Exactly” Echo replied in laughter too.
Craig hit his hands on the table and they both stopped laughing.
“Ok it’s ok now” Craig said.
“Ok, Gennie let’s stop laughing” Echo said.
” Let’s stop … f_ck!, Next week Friday is Mr and Miss Korea, and the fact that my moonshine and his pink are contesting!” Gennie smiled.
” Winston and Clara too” Izzy said.
” Don’t worry babe, those two won’t be a problem” Bae replied.
” Clara and Winston are $h00ting today too, same studio with Quincy and Genny” Bae said.
” Will the studio blow up?, Should we expect an explosion soon?, Why will they have to use same studio” Polly said.
” Same studio, not same spot” Trinidad said.
” Twinkle is sick” Travis said and Polly faced him.
“Sick?, Why?”
“I dunno, I gave him a visit earlier, he’s not looking good” Travis replied.
” He should get well soon” Gennie said.
“It’s amusing that that’s actually coming from you” Reece said
“I don’t hold grudges for long” Gennie replied.
” So finally Echo hooks Reece, I almost couldn’t believe it, two mortal enemies” Polly said and Reece giggled.
” That’s telling you to go find a babe” Trinidad said.
Polly rolled her eyes and Trinidad giggled.
“Echo why the silence?” Izzy said and everyone turned to her.
Reece pecked her and she looked at him.
“What’s up?” He asked.
“Just thinking about Quincy” she replied worriedly.
“What about her?” Bae asked.
“Actually her chance of winning Miss Korea is slimmer than Clara’s, she’s an half-caste remember?” She said and all eyes widened.
” That’s actually true, only her late mum is a Korean, her dad is an Australian” Craig said.
” But that’s nonsense, Lisa Manoban is from Thailand remember?, Despite the discrimination, she’s still the most popular among the band” Bae said.
” Sure, let’s stay positive, Genova Alejandro for Mr Korea, Quincy Norbert for Miss Korea” Gennie said.
” Cheers!” They drank to that.
” Quincy’s manager is getting married to my brother next month, good news!” Echo announced.
” Really?, Kimberly is….gosh why am I just hearing that now?” Bae replied.
” Cheers to that again!” Red said and they cheered.

K-KLASSIC STUDIOS**
Clara’s dress is a yellow pantsuit, revealing most of her b*tt and in the front….her B-__-bs are almost out completely.
Her makeup is hot and her heels are thin and tall.
Winston is wearing a wide white shirt, he left the top buttons undone, revealing his chest and the expensive chains.
He’s wearing studs on both ears.
Their $h00t kicked off and everyone gasped at their closeness
Winston grabbed the opportunity and touched her exposing parts stylishly, making her look at him.
“Be careful, if you touch me that way again, I’ll slap you” she glared as the pictures continued clicking.
“Slap me” he replied naughtily, smiling as he made to press her b*tt again but she held his fingers and squeezed them hard.
“Arrg!” He cried out, making the $h00ting pause
“Win-Win are you fine?” The $h00ter asked.
Clara let go of his hand.
“Yes…yes I’m..fine”
*****
ANOTHER ROOM**
It’s the fullest room in the studio, Genny and Quincy are currently $h00ting and it’s quite a beautiful atmosphere.
Quincy is wearing a white long gown and while Genny is on suit.
“Thanks for becoming a model” Quincy whispered as the camera lights flashed.
“My pleasure” he smiled and Quincy giggled lightly.
They faced the camera again and he slipped his hands on her waist, pulling her closer.
Their chests are on each other during the next picture.
She placed her hands on his shoulder and immediately they faced the camera, he pecked her.
“Hey!” Quincy faced him, blushing heavily.
” That was actually a good pose” the $h00ter said and the $h00ts continued.
After the whole thing, they entered their dressing room, they used one and it was her who managed him today since Reece isn’t here.
They were changing when Genny felt the usual headache again.
“Need to use the restroom” he said and before Quincy could talk, he left the room.
He rushed to the nearest one and almost immediately, Quincy felt her eyes turning.
She quickly held the wall before she’ll fall.
It continued and she leaned fully on the wall till it stopped, then she started feeling like puking.
She rushed out of the room into a restroom and bent in front of the zinc.
She vomited and dispensed water on it before rinsing her mouth.
She felt weak instantly and kept holding the zinc bowl for balance.
She looked at her eyes in the mirror.
“It’s pale, what’s wrong with me?, Is it stress?” She wondered, breathing heavily.
***
Genny released water on his head immediately he got to the restroom.
The water relieved him of the headache but his chest almost seized earlier.
He left the bathroom and came out, the water from his hair is already rushing down his body.
“It’s high time I go for checkup” he said to himself and walked away.
Winston came out of his hiding place, he has actually been watching him.
“A terminal sickness?, How happy will I be if it is” he smiled.
******
A WEEK LATER (A DAY TO THE COMPETITION), THE HANS MANSION**
” So…. You prefer ball gown to straight one too” Mrs Han said, checking the pictures of wedding gowns with Kimberly.
“Yes, ball gown is more fitting” Kimberly smiled and Mrs Han stroked her hair.
” You’re so pretty, how I wish your parents are still alive” she said.
“I wish too” Kimberly replied.
” So we’re going with ball gown” Mrs Han said.
” Yes” Kimberly smiled and they hugged.
“I seriously can’t wait for this wedding, I can’t wait to see my Asbel getting married” Mrs Han said, patting her back.
” I love him a lot” Kimberly said.
“I know, and he loves you too” Mrs Han replied, breaking the hug.
” Please… Take care of our Asbel” she said.
“Trust me ma’am” Kimberly smiled and they hugged again.
” Asbel is so lucky to have you” Mrs Han said.
“You too” Kimberly smiled happily.
******
TRAVIS’S PLACE**
“Wow!” Kept escaping Polly’s lips as Travis showed her around.
She actually came for a visit willingly since Izzy is out with Gennie.
They got to the pool and she smiled.
“Reminiscing about something?” She asked.
” It looks funny” she laughed lightly.
” Funny? How? ”
” The shape” she laughed again.
The pool is the shape of an heart, smaller than the normal pool.
“That’s my heart, you’re laughing at my heart?” He said and she laughed more.
” How could a pool be shaped like an heart, seriously you’re weird” she said.
” I’ve always been a lonely child so I told them to make it this way, only for my use… Never knew I’ll still have friends” he explained.
” Oh” she smiled.
” So… Izzy isn’t around and you’re bored, so you came to add to my boredom” he joked.
” Stop it” she said and he smiled.
” But why did you choose to come here” he asked.
“I just found my legs taking me here, couldn’t stop it” she replied.
” I know right?, Just like it took you here the other time when you were drunk” he said.
” Yah! ” She said and he laughed.
” You were funny seriously, you were like…
” Stop ok? ” She glared but it didn’t work.
He made to talk again but she pushed him into the pool.
“I’m leaving!” She said and started leaving but when she’s not hearing movements from him, she stopped and looked back, he’s not swimming or struggling to get out, he’s not on the surface at all.
She walked back curiously and saw him drowning.
She got alarmed and jumped in instinctively, swam to him and pulled him to the surface.
He opened his eyes and let out a loud laughter afterwards.
“Trickster!” She shot.
“You really believe I’d drown when I’m a good swimmer? ” He said.
” Don’t do it again” she said seriously.
He went quiet.
” I really h@?? tricks” she said.
“Why?” He asked.
“I just h@?? it, my love life has been tricky… Whenever I think I’ve found the right one, they end up being with my friends, whenever I think I’ve met Mr right, it’s always not right…. So… Tricking me is like…. I dunno” she said and Travis immediately started feeling sorry.
” I’m sorry” he said
“No it’s fine, I’m cool now” she smiled and he went to her.
He smiled shortly before hugging her.
Polly slowly raised her arms to his back and closed her eyes.
“Do you want me to be your Mr right?” Travis suddenly asked and her eyes flew open.
“Huh!”
******
NEXT DAY( D-DAY )**
The hall is the biggest around with capacity of millions of people at once.
Everything is set for the competition but it’s not on yet, a comedian is still throwing jokes on stage, making everyone laugh loud.
“Where’s our seat located” Polly said as she came in with the girls.
“2,467” where’s that” Bae said as they searched.
” There there!” Trinidad pointed and they all went there to sit according to their seat numbers.
The guys are still coming, maybe during the competition.
“It’s almost time!” The comedian said, handing over to a lady who’ll be the anchor.
“My name is Liz and I’ll be anchoring this competition this year ” she said and a thunderous clap followed.
“Mr and Miss Korea last year, you guys should come to your right seats in the front as you enter” she said.
They both came in, looking stunning with their crowns on their heads.
A loud ovation accompanied them till they got to their seats in the front.
“Now we have all the judges, the Mr and Miss of last year, and I think the audience is complete” Liz said and waited for a minute.
” Calm down, chill, relax everyone as the contestants introduce themselves, we’ll start with the female category” she said and stepped back as the first one catwalked in.
“She’s hot!” Trinidad gasped.
“I’m Oh Jenn, a Korean, my statistics are as shown on the teleprompter, I’m a model, rank 50 in the female category” she smiled and left the stage.
Another one came and Izzy gasped too.
“She’s beautiful!”
“Everyone in the industry is beautiful” Polly said.
” I’m Sassy Marvel, a Korean, my statistics are on the teleprompter, I’m rank 56 in the female category, a model” she said and left.
” Tabella Armstrong, a Korean, statistics on the teleprompter, rank 40 in the female category, a model” the next one said.
They had to wait till fifteen before Clara showed up.
Her fans screamed immediately and she smiled, hanging her jacket on her shoulder as she walked in stylishly, her @zz did a bounce job in her pantsuit.
“Scream!!!” She shouted and her fans screamed.
“Clara Blackstone like y’all know, a Korean, statistics are…as shown, 2nd in the female category, an hot model” she said and turned her back.
She shook her @zz before walking out.
” She’s so full of herself” Echo said.
“Quincy is next!” Bae said as Quincy came in.
Her screams is just as loud as Clara’s as she walked in.
All the girls stood and screamed for her, Echo’s voice is the loudest.
Quincy is wearing a backless short gown, shinny white in colour,white heels too and her hair was curled, she looks more ?ëx¥ with the simple makeup.
“Quincy Norbert, a Korea-Australlian, my statistics are on the teleprompter, I’m number one in the female category, a model” she said and Loud screams accompanied her out of the stage.
There are twenty female contestants and Immediately they finished their introduction, the males started coming in.
Winston came in when it got to ten….
He came shirtless, wearing only black trousers and his hair was dyed to complete white.
? Hottie!!!!!!!!!
The girls had to cover their ears as his fans screamed.
“Bullshit” Gennie said from where he’s sitting with the boys, they’re all using masks.
“Winston Montenegro, popularly known as your Win-Win, star of the industry, number 1!” He said proudly and his fans screamed again.
” I’m a Korean, statistics on the teleprompter” he said and left after winking.
After two others, Genny came in and it’s as if new audience were rented.
Everyone single soul in the hall stood and cheered.
He’s rocking all red, he’s too attractive and gosh!
Gennie removed his mask and screamed for him while the others screamed with their masks on, the girls aren’t left out too.
They’re still screaming as he introduced himself.
“Genova Alejandro, handsome Genny, statistics on the teleprompter, a Korean, a new model but I managed to get number 2” he said and the screams became louder again as he left.
The intro finally ended and they moved to the competition proper.
The judges held their pens tighter on their papers as they started coming in in various wears.
Cooperate, traditional, bad boy and bad girl, bikinis, simple wears, creative wears, jean on jean and sneakers, ball gowns, bum shorts and singlets, shirtless guys….
They enter in a single file at every dress..
“Thankfully the judges are much too, they’ll be able to differ them” Craig said.
The questions and answers section came and Genny was the first to answer his question.
Winston wasn’t able to give an answer to his own.
Both Clara and Quincy answered their questions well and when Quincy was heading out, her heels slipped and she almost fell but Genny held her and they went out together.
“$h|t, this mistake” Bae muttered.
They all came back to the stage after everything…it took close to three hours.
Everyone held their breaths as Liz handed over to the chief judge.
“You guys all tried, everyone tried their best I must say, and for the fact that the forty of you know that there’ll be only two winners and still participated, it’s brave” she said, looking at the paper with her .
The first and second runner up were called and they stepped aside.
” The winner of Mr Korea 2024 is!….
Everyone held their breaths.
? Win-Win!!!
? Genny!!!!
“Genova Alejandro!” She said and everyone screamed as the rest left the stage.
” Yes!” Craig hugged Gennie
Travis and Red hugged too .
Genny smiled at Quincy who’s already fidgeting.
The second runner up for the female category was Oh Jenn.
The first runner up is….
“Quincy Norbert!”
“f_ck” Echo mumbled as the hall went silent.
Quincy almost fainted and the girls went mute.
” I lost” Quincy thought, fighting back her tears as she looked at Genny but she suddenly looks shocked when she saw a tiny red light on Genny’s chest.
“And the winner of Miss Korea 2024, is…. Clara….
Before the judge could say Blackstone, a gunshot sounded and blood stained Quincy’s face.
