Chapter I
She had a life with a different perspective. Some call her gifted, witty, vibrant and everything in between. And some…well, flaws if you may, as Katalina had a long list of her unexpected behavior that will reveal by itself in the future.
Graduated as Cum Laude at the age of nineteen from respected universities and considered as one of the aspiring youth ever made into a one-man—or shall we say—one-woman art show, despite of her youthfulness, she made a name and bested her peers. What amuses the critiques mostly was Katalina’s technique happens to be much advance for her age, and four years later, the critiques christened her by the name of ‘golden hand’ and became one of the most well known surreal artists in local and abroad.
This young woman from a well-known family was a goal-minded, always determine to win, and thus she always win. No one in this world could stop her from committing success. No one can stop her gaining dignity and victory. She had it all; fame, fortune, name. A young age of twenty-four nonetheless earned the honor of a fifty year-old veteran. However, or others may say, all things come with a price. Hence it was true. All of these honor, reputation and wealth reduced and frosted her freedom. She did make her own way to the top, but the height became her greatest fear.
When she turned twenty-seven, her whole persona changed. She became bored, snob and egotistical. The tiring gestures she made at the parties, television shows and huge corporate events became her little world. She can’t even remember when was the last time she decides what to wear or what time to brush her teeth. She was all locked up from the outside world, confined and converted into corporate monkey who always tell when to dance and when to halt. Hell, she even endorsed some brands she can’t even recognize.
This is not the kind of life she’s dreaming about. Yes, she’s infamous, earning as much as six figures a week from her appearance alone, not including the price of her work. But it was all tiring, and the people around her starting to tear up her dream.
All good things come with a price. No shit.
She would cut her ear like Van Gough did just to make them go away.
And she did make them go away as her ‘issue’ suddenly burst out of nowhere. The last exhibit she made was a complete disaster, opposed to the ones she had made before. She did that on purpose. She did that to make them believe she’s gone insane so that she can go back where she could start a new beginning of her life.
But all things come with a price, like they said. The critiques and her own supporters dropped her like a rug on the floor. The years of crafting her name disappeared in just a day. The Kat ‘Golden Hand’ Grant became nothing more but a common stupid.
Moronic? Yes, with an absolute freedom, nonetheless…
Chastising away from the world of celebrities as she was once considered by critics, was great impeccable timing indeed for Kat. When her own manager declined her existence, she met a young man named Matt. An ordinary man ordained to rule her world. The handsome, tall, bedroom-brown-eyed boy that so perfect for her... or so she thought he was. Kat doesn’t care if he belongs to an ordinary world, differ to her own. What makes important was he loved her. The two get along after few months, became a couple and had a blissful relationship. Kat thought she had it all when Matt came to her life.
Anyway he thought the same way, but until Kat fucked up again.
Kat never lost the limelight of her name, really. Like hibernating, it made her popular even more. The ‘Golden Hand’ became the ‘Bad Girl’ when the beast inside her sprawled out. Her talent was set aside and her behavior was emphasized. She’s a feast from the eyes of any reporters, newspapers and magazines; labeling her as the greatest and the worst.
She doesn’t need to paint again… that was she said. “I am the icon itself. I don’t need them.”
Well, we’ll just see about that.
