Dawn of the Lion

章 5

"Dear, Ms. Selene Wang.

This email serves as a pleasant welcome to you to the upcoming project of the Premier Films Media Company as a Protagonist on the said project. We are excited to have a contract signing with you, so please make yourself available tomorrow, 7 pm at the Company.

If you have any concerns or inquires just reply to this email. Thank you! Have a good day!

Warm regards, 

Malia."

The next day, I woke early to prepare myself and to cook food for breakfast. When I read that email, grabe ang ngiti ko abot hanggang tenga. I've been waiting for so long and finally I passed the auditions for the Protagonist role!!!! I wanted to share this to someone pero I guess, I rather stay quiet.

I was wearing my usual outfit but this time, no coat since it's getting hotter day by day. White dress shirt tucked-in a denim jeans and partnered with my favorite Chanel sneakers looking so fine for me today. After preparing myself, I got out of my room with my bag and went down stairs. 

Naabutan ko namang nagluluto si Jacques, when I looked at the clock, he's late than the usual pero nakabihis na siya ng outfit niya for school. Nasira na naman ang plano ko, I don't have a choice but to eat outside. I bought my breakfast at Starbucks and bring it on our room.

"Mukhang may away na namang naganap." Jane chuckled. "What's with Starbs, mare?" 

"We decided not to talk to each other." I honestly said. "We will just act like a couple once our parents are there." I nodded before taking a bite on my bread.

"Para kang nabunutan ng tinik?" Beatrice chuckled. "Edi maganda 'yan since ayaw niyo naman talaga naman ng mga nangyayari diba?" She added.

"Yeah. Hayaan na nga lang natin. If he doesn't want, okay fine." I chuckled. "Hindi ako pwedeng mastress! Mayroon akong contract signing later!" I winked at them.

"Ayan na naman si bakla!" Caroline laughed. "Congrats, love." She caressed my hair. "I'm always proud of you!" 

"Thank you, thank you!" I told them.

"VIP seat na naman tayo sa premier night! Congrats, Sel! Not surprised though!" Jane hugged me and I hugged her back.

"Iba ka talaga, Selene Wang!" Beatrice shook her head while clapping. "Support our blockmate on her upcoming project with the Premier Films!" She shouted.

"Huy, Bea. Nakakahiya." I said while pulling her to be seated again.

After classes, I immediately got home to take a bath again and prepare myself. I only have 2 hours since my classes finished around 5 pm. When I got home, I called my Mom to tell that I have a contract signing, I need a driver that's why.

"Mom, I have a contract signing. I just received the email yesterday night pero nabasa ko siya exactly when I woke up. I'll leave around 6pm, can you tell Kuya Aldo about it?" Bungad ko agad.
