The Dawn in Aseana (Dream Chasers Series #1)

032

Nalipat kami ng shift ni Chase at naging afternoon DJ na kami, madalas din kami kumain muna ng lunch bago mag start yung shift namin, at simula rin naging afternoon kami ay madalas nang nakikisabay si Khaly sa'min mag lunch.

"Bakit ba dito ka nakikiupo sa'min? There's a lot of vacant seat that you can occupy instead of here" sabi ko pag ka lapag niya ng tray ng pag kain niya.

"Just let him" Chase said and Khaly give him a high five. When did they become close?

"Kung ayaw mong balikan akin nalang" biro niya pag tayo ni Khaly para pumuntang wash room.

"Sa'yo na" I said as Khaly stood up.

Ganoon lagi ang pag lunch, makikisabay si Khaly at simpleng kikiligin si Chase habang ako ay inis na inis na nasa harap ko si Khaly.

Dumadagdag pa sa irita ko 'to si Chase na walang ibang bukambibig kung hindi Khaly, Khaky, Khaly, Khaky!! 'Langyang Khaly na 'yan, kelan ba niya papa tahimikin yung buhay ko? Nag e-exist ba siya para habang buhay ako buwisitin?

"DJ Serene, may tv guesting ka para sa noon time show. Hinahanap ka na ngayon malapit na daw mag air yun" pinauna ko na si Chase sa booth kasi nagulat ako na may guesting ako.

"What? I'm not informed about that. No one from that show emailed me or even called me and besides I've already declined their offer to feature me for an interview"

"Pero, DJ tumawa—" 'di ko na siya pinatapos at nag excuse na'ko dahil may tumawag sa'kin.

"This is the management of the good afternoon another chikahan, we want to know if you're already on your way here because we will start airing in 30 minutes" tiningnan ko yung number ng tumawag sa'kin and its unknown.

"I'm sorry I don't think that I remember accepting your offer about guesting me to your show"

"You've said that you'll be here and accepted our offer through text, last week" shoot! kelan 'yon?

"Alright, I'll check it first then I'll call you back" sabi ko at binaba ang phone.

"Shoot! Na accept ko nga yung offer nila nung lasing ako. Wala pa naman akong dalang sasakyan, nag pahatid lang ako kay kuya Dan kanina and for sure he's with kuya Winter ngayon" bulong ko sa sarili ko.

"Need a help?" Nagulat ako na nasa likuran ko si Khaly "No, thanks" I said without looking at him.

"Hindi naman na ako mag papalit ng damit okay na 'tong outfit ko. Mag taxi na nga lang ako" bulong ko parin sa sarili ko habang nag lalakad papuntang elevator.

"Could you please press the G for me, thank you" sabi ko kay Khaly dahil sumabay siya sa'kin sa elevator, hindi ko ma press saglit dahil busy ako makipag usap sa management nung show, natetense ako.

"What the hell Khaly?!" sigaw ko pag kahatak niya sa'kin palabas ng elevator nang tumapat na sa floor na pinindot niya yung elevator.

"I'll drive you"

"But I ca—" he cut me off "No, buts! I'm not doing this for you, I'm doing this for my company. You're presenting my radio station's name there and I can't let you be late, it will ruin the name of the station" he got a point, so I didn't talk back and just let him do what he wants.

Pag dating namin sa TV station sinundo na kami agad ng staff nung show "Uy, Autumn! Ginagawa mo dito? Mag ce-celebrity DJ kana?" tanong ni Seven ng maka salubong ko siya.

"Sira, my TV guesting ako" sagot ko habang tinitingnan yung sarili ko sa compact mirror "Siya ba?" pang aasar niya at sinundot sundot pa yung bewang ko "tsh!" napatingin kami kay Khaly.
