I asked Ruru to drive us to my house immediately after dinner. He did what he was told, now, we are on the floor, filled with papers.

Iniisip kong maigi, maliban sa safe, may nakalabas ba akong kontrata?

"Hon, ilista muna natin commitments mo ngayon taon and ung may existing pa na duration." Ruru says, looking at the two pieces of paper on one of each hand. Mukhang pagod na sya kakahahanap, either tapos na or luma na kasi ung kanya.

"Teka, alam ko kasi nasa safe talaga. Dinoble check ko lang if mayron pa dito." Sabi ko. Saka tumayo at naglakad papunta sa safe. Nakita ko naman sya tumayo at kumuha din ng ballpen sa lamesa.

"Ky, diba ung clothing brand na local ineendorse mo din?" Ruru says, clicks down the ballpen and writes it down.

"Oo, yung gamot din na brand pala." Sabi ko dito, he jots it down and I try to recall my safe password.

I hate it, i am forgetful.

"Teka, hindi ko matandaan." I say, leans in on top of my safe.

My pregnancy brain has been lagging, and besides, kailan ko ba huling nabuksan to?

I tap my temple, trying to think for every word or number my safe's lock is.

"Kylie, It's okay, you're sharing your brain with my child. Okay lang, matatandaan mo din yan." Sabi nya, pulls me over for my hug. Dun ko napansin ung pinagsulatan nya ng list of brands ng endorsement ko.

"Flip that over!" I say, nagpanic sya nung una but he followed.

"2-3-4-9-0" Ruru says, the numbers are written behind the paper he had wrote on.

I immediately typed the numbers and I was jumping up and down when the numbers got accepted.

It revealed some of my money, and the contracts I had kept. I took them one by one outside.

"Ibibigay na ba natin to lahat kay Tito Alvin or irereview mo muna lahat?" Sabi sakin ni Ruru.

"Irereview ko nalang din muna. Para hindi naman ako nakakahiya kay Papa na pinipirmahan ko ng hindi ko alam." I say, holding on tight to the papers that will now determine my future.

"What do you think about the statement, Actress, Kylie Padilla, 2nd Party, is not allowed to leave the show not until the show has declared its ending?" I ask Ruru, I was pacing back and forth, trying to review the contract I signed with Encantadia.

"Teka, may clause din ata ung akin na ganyan. Familiar sakin." Ruru says, Stands up from my table, nag hati kami ng gagawin. Nirereview ko ung sa encantadia, sya naman ung sa pharmaceutical brand.

He looks at the piece of paper infront of me and reads it.

"Oo, ayan, meron din ako nyan. Kasi, ang pag kakaalala ko, main characters tayo. Bawal natin iwan ung show." Ruru says. I doubt if I really know or if I ever actually paid attention to this clause. I mean, alam ko oo, pero it feels like I am back to square one.


"Oo nga, ito, nasa babang paragraph. Actress, Kylie Padilla, as one of the main heroine of the sanggres, a term use in the encantadia world defined as the enchanta term used to refer to a royal blooded enchantado, who as such possesses special powers and destinies above those of a commoner...." I try to read everything, but when it ended on me not being allowed to leave the encantadia show during it's duration. I whisper the words to avoid being heard by Ruru.

Technically, Wala naman sinasabing bawal ako mabuntis as I try to recall every word. Pero what bothers me the most, is hindi ako pwedeng umalis ng encantadia until hindi natatapos ang storya ni Amihan...
