Happy afternoon friends of the Café ☕ community, what a pleasure to greet you and participate again in this creative writing initiative. Today's question set my imagination flying and makes me develop the following story, join me..
Neila and I grew up together, we were like sisters, we studied high school and with the advent of technology she was getting into social networks, she did dances, challenges and always liked to show her life openly, I, on the contrary, was more reserved.
I studied chemical engineering and worked in a bar for several years until I had the training I needed.
Neila and I always shared a coffee in the afternoons while I told her about my dream of launching this coffee flavored cocktail that would be an explosion of flavors on any palate, it was going to be unique and replace any other already known.
My friend kept busy with her events and became so famous that our meetings became a bit limited.
With my project finished I turned to my friend Neila to help me through all those celebrities she knew and she as an influencer could be the model for my cocktail.

We wanted to use Neila's fame to sell the product, it was really good, but when the time came to present it to the world, the press asked who had prepared that wonderful cocktail formula, Neila looked at me and fixing her eyes on the cameras said with a clear voice that this was the result of her years of work and that today she saw it materialized.
Indignant, I tried to approach and protest that this was a vile lie and I was immediately removed from the place.

Hurt and betrayed I planned my revenge, my tears were evident for months, I had no way to prove my work, everything was in her hands, she used me.
No one believed me, every time I tried to confront her her security team wouldn't let me near her.
I figured out a plan, she wouldn't steal my life's work, she didn't need to steal my idea, she was only doing it out of greed, so I took advantage of her biggest weakness which was money and used it against her.

My friend Jonas had a luxury restaurant, I organized a meeting in his VIP room, he pretended to be a multimillionaire businessman who wanted to hire her as a model for his restaurant and she accepted, she fell into my trap.
Long before we had prepared the place with video cameras in specific places where she could not notice, this coincided with the half time of the first half of a soccer match in the soccer stadium, many people would go and with the help of a little money the video was going to be broadcasted on a giant screen in the stadium and in all the social networks.
At first my friend came in and talked to her for a while, then I came in and confronted her, she tried to leave the place, I confronted her.
It was at that moment when I was given the signal that I spoke to Neila about her betrayal telling her that I was the creator of that cocktail, when she saw that it was only the two of us she said openly that she only took my idea as hers because she knew that in my hands she would have no future, while she because of her fame could manipulate everyone and make them adore her as the goddess she was and earn a lot of money.

The crowd in the stadium upon hearing this were shocked. Neila uncovered herself and told me that yes, she knew that the cocktail formula was mine and she didn't minInfluencer d stealing my idea, that in the end where I went nobody would believe me, because in the end her fans were just puppets that she managed at her whim and if there was something she knew was to manipulate people and get what she wanted.
A very strong statement to be being seen in real time by millions of people, both the attendees in the stadium and all those who watched it live on YouTube and other networks that my friend had contacted were perplexed by such a confession.
Then my friend entered leaving the door open, she sought to leave, but first she warned me that she was an influencer and I was just an ugly duckling, that no one would believe me because everyone fell for her charms.
Without knowing that everything was being transmitted she left, the social networks and the media destroyed her and that was when I filed my lawsuit and the judge ruled in my favor, all the profits collected from sales of my product were returned to me, while Neila's manager put her to give a press conference apologizing to me and confirming that I was the intellectual and material author of the cocktail.

My product gained more fame after this scandal, becoming the Number One in restaurants worldwide, a good reward after a lot of hard work, which inspired me to create new variants of my coffee-flavored cocktail that continues to be everyone's favorite.
And so ends my creative writing today, I hope you liked it as much as I did, I say goodbye until next weekend, I'm .
