Chapter 22

Food

Sobrang gulo na naman sa unit ng magising silang lahat. They were all ranting about their aching heads. Lalong sumakit iyong sa akin dahil sa ingay nila. Good thing it distracted Sam. I don't know why I suddenly feel so nervous earlier. Iyong tingin ni Giovan kasi kanina, parang may ginawa akong illegal kahit wala naman.

I tilted my head as I try to decipher his reaction. Well, hindi ko pa rin makalimutan iyong smirk niya lagi sa akin! At sa pag sabi niya na kung wala siya ay masakit sana ang pwet ko ngayon. Seems like he's grown vulgar.

The next day, we went to the studio for another photo shoot. The ambiance is more serious than in my previous photoshoot. It'll be for a business magazine, sabi sa akin ni Cali.

That means Giovanni will be with me.

"Ayusin mo Astrid ha. Baka mamaya anong oras tayo matapos!"

Inirapan ko naman siya. I'm sure I'll do my best today. Since I stamp on my mind that Giovanni will be here, I think I can do it na. Hindi rin naman kailangang masyadong ngumiti dito because the theme will be different so...

"Good morning Miss Astrid!" bati sa akin ng make up artist.

"Good morning," I said back and smiled a little.

She guided me to our area and started prepping me. She told me what our concept would be and the make-up she'll do. She's really nice I must say, with her cheerful voice and smiling face, I feel so comfortable.

"How long have you've been working as a make-up artist, Leah?" I asked her simply.

Usually, artists have their own glam team. I do have one, but I can't bring them all here in the Philippines. That's why I asked the production and Enchantress if they could just provide me one. Kahit sino that they surely trust.

I saw how she slightly raised her eyebrows before smiling warmly.

"Four years na din, Miss..."

I nodded, "Do you have a particular artist that you work with, or..."

"Mayroon, Miss Astrid. Sometimes, other artists will call kahit hindi naman regular, and I attend to them kung may time," masaya niyang sagot.

Napangiti naman ako. We finish the make-up on time but we had a problem with the outfits. Hindi kasi siya kasya sa akin. Maluwag.

"Did you lose weight again?" taking tanong ni Cali.

She gave them my size even before the shoot para walang problema, but I think I did lose weight.

"Not that I did on purpose. I don't know, huwag kang magalit."

She sighed and just eyed me, natawa nalang ako. They tried to work with it, sinukat sa akin and look saan pwedeng ayusin.

"It's okay to just put a pin. Kung hindi naman kita sa photoshoot ayos lang iyon..."

"Pero baka masaktan kayo Miss, 'pag gumalaw."

"It's okay, sasabihin ko nalang. We don't have time to repair it na din..."

The stylist sighed as he looked at me wearing the dress. Mukha siyang na stress. Napatingin naman ako kay Cali and she just shrugged.

"Sorry. I didn't mean to lose weight." I apologized.

Nag-angat naman ng tingin sa akin ang stylist and shook his head. "Ayos lang Miss." He smiled.

Napanguso nalang ako. They just put pin on my clothes, ganoon din sa iba pang sosootin ko. Mabilis na iyong kilos nila dahil nga makukulangan na kami sa oras.
