"My dear Sofia"

By:  Rajo C. Hayudini 9-E. 20

The story I am about to tell contains love,hate,greed,pride,happiness,sadness, and the most human emotion of humanity sadly.

This little tale begins in the year 2018. I was fresh out of collage and I was eager to begin my studies to become a vet which will take 6 more years of studying.
But since my parents can't earn enough money for me to study, I decided to become a small time critic, who reviews movies, video games and theatre acts, I then share my thoughts and impressions about them online.

I took it because it was easy and fun to do since all I do is watch/play the thing,(unless it's horrible)then I just need to write my review and share my opinions and ratings in the internet.

So as my days go I thought my life would be just a normal life with very little major event, but it seems like fate decided to mix things with my life.
As I walk back home around 9 PM, I felt like was being followed by someone but I chose to ignore it, but like my answers in Math I guessed wrong.

Suddenly there was tape in my mouth then both my arms and legs were tied up!
I tried to escape but the man carrying me had a very tight grip on my body and was carrying me on his shoulder.
At that moment I though I was either dead or get severely injured and mistreated until my parents give them the ransom money.

But, it didn't turn into that situation(weird right?) instead the culprits showed me there faces and name! The ring leader's name is Race Vi Blur, a French man who is a director, the right hand man is named Franz Gurt a inspiring writer, and the man who was abducting me was called Dimitri Vladimitric a Russian actor and producer.
To me personally I call them the international three stooges.

The reason why they abducted me was so that I can write a review on their preview play called The Rouge.
I asked them why I should review it, then they huddled up and they were planning on their answer is on my question, it look like to me personally those funny huddle routines with slapping involve (that's why I call them international three stooges.)

Their answer was that they needed a "excellent" critique to review their play in order for their investor who is a senator in their district to give them funds for them to bring their show in the Manila Theatre and for props.
Race also said that "we will pay you well" so obviously I took the job.

After reading the script that was written by Franz, it took place in Indonesia, the story is the basic plot of a princess falling in love with a poor boy, but they can't be together due to their status and the princess' arrange marriage to the Rajah(king), it maybe basic but it is well executed.

As I was writing my review, Race asked Dimitri to show me the set, props, Actors and Actresses.
Then something happen, a event that change me till this day, I then meet the main Actress who will play the Princess her name is Sofia, she is a orphan who was adopted by the Producer Race so that makes her Sofia Vi Blur except she is full Filipino.

In all honesty we didn't see eye to eye but it seems fate also tempered with both our love style.
It turned into a 80's style romance comedy where we didn't like each other at first but at the end we love each other(classic).

Sadly we cannot date or show our love publicly because it turns out Race informed me that the reason why The Senator was interested with their play was because he was interested in her.

So both me and Sofia secretly dated each other and everyone in the play promised to keep our love secret from the senator.
So after a month or two the play was ready and fully prepared. But on the last day before show time that of the play, my happiness and joy quickly became sadness for Race told me that Sofia has to sleep with the senator in order for the play to show in the Manila Theatre.

So I mentally prepared myself and so did Sofia for both of us understand that we need to do this in order for the play to show or else all our hardwork (I was also the co-producer and co-director) will be in vain.

Sadly Sofia did not do it with the senator because she said that she love me right at his face.
Though I was happy I was also worried about the play, weirdly though the play was not cancelled!

But before I knew it the Senator hired a Hitman to kill me! Which showed the sad truth about us humans, Revenge is the most human emotion.
And the only one who knew of his plan was poor Sofia

So as the the play end my love also ended for we all know what happened to Sofia, she sacrificed herself for me to live.

  1. Wow, your story is really interesting. It is very unique because of the twists. It's sad that the couple wasn't able to stay together in the end but I guess that is reality. Sometimes we can't get the perfect love. You story was imaginitive with the plot but also realistic in a sense that you showed everyone that not everything is a fairy tale with a happily ever after.
