A genius or an idiot?

It was time... time for the ball

Ughh—!!! I'm still unsure of what is going to happen
Will my plan work? I won't get caught...right?

I was stressing like crazy about the idea of my plan failing or what consequences will have this ball in my life...
I know to well from my past life that immediately when people see me performing, they go crazy about it.
Sometime in a good way like just complementing me and all but...
Most of the time it's in a bad way
Either for other or myself

People tend to shame me on 'faking it', being 'lucky' or the most used one
Having all their expectations on me
Saying it like that might not look bad but... the pression I feel each time someone say that is gigantic.
The feel of if I don't do well I will be worthless, if I make even one error I will be ridiculed.

And if it's not that, it will be shaming other like families shaming their child for not being like me, or when I see their face in competition I feel like I crushed their dream, I don't like this feeling at all.
Full of person being jealous of me when I was just doing my best.

Anyway... it's too late to change my plan.

It was 22 o'clock.

*I will start writing in a 3rd pov from now on*

Abele came in Cami's room.
"Master Cami, do you want any help to prepare yourself for the ball?" He thought about it for a while
"I will need a little bag to put my jewelries in it. If my family see me with it right now they might have a panic attack. At least if we are already at the ball, they won't be able to say anything about it" he placed a 'passive aggressive' smile on his face
"Ah- master... you really became malicious..." Abele had some sweat drops on her face
"Well... I have to if I want other to respect me don't I?" She sighed in discouragement
"O-ok...."

She left the room to go take a bag where Cami could place his things.
She returned to his room and surprised the master getting dressed.

She was stunned. The boy was simply beautiful. The costume he chose was fitting him perfectly.
"Oh! Abele you are here! Can you help me get my hair done and attached my corset please?"
She went to the boy with a smile

"Yes of course!"
"Your costume is perfect you will probably gain a lot of attention from other in a positive way."
Cami blushed
"Ah-... of course it's the effect I wanted but... will there be really.... A lot of people watching me?" Abele looked at him with a confused expression
"... I don't understand you at all... do you want to have the attention or not!?"
"Well... it's complicate. I certainly need to make a good impression on other for me to build an other reputation but... I really don't like having attention on me..." Abele looked at him with a gentle face
"You changed so much master. I'm proud of you. Before you wouldn't even had tried to change your reputation with a plan but just threatened people to stop talking about you..."

Cami made a shy smile back
"Well... if I can make people smile like this. I'm proud of myself for having changed" she giggled
"It's good having such a cute conversation but I have to put the corset tell me when you are ready"
"I'm ready you can go now"

She passed the corset for it to go to the waist. The corset was enveloping perfectly his waist. She tightened the corset.
And attached the blue strings.

She then place the belt and attached it to the pants. It was a simple little blue royal ribbon but it was fitting really well.
She asked Cami if he wanted helped for the ribbon for his neck. But he said no.
