TOWNIE MAKEOVER - Nina Caliente
Meet my version of Nina Caliente! I have to say, I am really excited about her makeover ! Not really about her new closet (eventhough I think she turned out quite cute...if I do say so myself! ah ah) but really about her back story !
When I first loaded into their household, I was kind of surprised by Nina's traits, and I thought to myself, well...she is a really complex character.
I mean, she is hot-headed, noncommittal, BUT romantic? and she has villainous valentine as an aspiration? I mean come on ! I was so perplexed at first, and then, it hit me ! So if you'd like to know what I imagined, here is her story...
Because Nina very much looks like her mother, she has always been compared to her but obviously, was never enough.
Mind you, how could you compete with a gorgeous woman who has established her fame and recognition through years and years of hard work when you are only a little girl? At that, that beautiful and successful woman seems to really enjoy being praised and complimented, even if it is at your expense.
Also, remember, that woman, is your mother!
Well, growing up in that specific environment, and in the shadow of her quite narcissistic mother, Nina developed : a gnawing resentment, a consuming jealousy, and a secret desire to be in her mother's shoes . The only problem being that with all these feelings her lack of self confidence grew along. And that is why she could never be in front of the camera like her mother, so instead, she writes the stories (so, you guessed it, she is an author but I only make her write scenarios).
Growing up as THE Katrina Caliente's daughter (as the first born, yes I have decided that they are not twins anymore with Dina, it better fits my storyline) doesn't leave much room for you to be a shy and discreet child.
So eventhough, Nina is not really your typical self-assured girly, she cannot let everyone, and especially not her mother see how weak she is inside.
So as the years went by, she learned how to guard her heart not to suffer. She has developed that persona who is noncommittal, and hot-headed but that is just a facade. She rather scare and bite first than being hurt. She rather be chaotic in love and destroy things than give a man the opportunity to not choose her. Something she experienced way too much while growing up.
But when you pay attention, when you really look, and really listen, you can see it. All she really wants is to be loved, truly loved. Loved for who she is and not because she looks like her mother or not because she is the daughter of said mother, Nina is indeed a romantic at heart.
And that is how Don Lothario enters the chat room.
Surprisingly, he seems to see something in Nina that nobody before, has ever seen. When she is in his presence, she feels seen and heard. She feels sexy enough, she feels woman enough, and finds herself wondering how this gorgeous man, who is actually dating her goddess mother, could lay eyes on her, with such lust and desire that she could feel her skin burn.
It's a rollercoaster of emotions for Nina. Of course with her aspiration (villainous valentine) , she is used to chaos and drama, but this time...could it be different ?
Is she really falling for this man or is she falling for HER MOTHER's man? Does she want to find love ? or does she want to win over her mother, for once ?
