Talk

I roamed my eyes at the area as soon as I went out of the airport. My lips formed a smile as my eyes widened upon seeing my brother, walking towards me with his hands in his pockets. Ryan smiled at me when he saw me before waving his hand at me. I walked towards him while pulling my suitcase.

Ryan took the suitcase from me as we greeted each other. He told me that Mommy and Daddy were both at home, waiting for us. My manager will arrive tomorrow since she just heard about my arrival in the Philippines right now. I didn't inform her about this because I know she will panic. She's crazy sometimes. Honestly, she's been arrogant since I met her. She's too arrogant to be a manager, but she manages me well, so I can't fire her or get rid of her as my manager.

I rested for a while when we arrived at our house. Nothing really changed in our house, aside from the newly painted walls of it. My room smelled old which made me sprayed my perfume all over before I let our housemaids fix my things in my room. I slept and woke up when it was already dark.

I attended the photoshoots that Manager Marley took for me when she arrived in the Philippines. The locations kept changing since the photoshoots were for different brands and products. A publishing company even hired me as the model of their book covers, so I was really tired for my first two weeks in the Philippines.

I was resting in our living room, watching some movies with Ryan when my phone rang. I checked my phone and saw my cousin's name on it. It was Oliver, asking me if I am free tomorrow. I called his number to talk to him properly. It's been a while since I talked to him since I was busy in Los Angeles while he was busy studying. I even heard that he transferred schools because of his past relationship that made him suffered.

"Oli!" I excitedly greeted him as I went into our swimming area.

"Lovely!" he greeted back with the same energy with mine.

I chuckled as I sat on a chair. In front of me was the newly-cleaned swimming pool, where behind it are my mother's plants.

"You want to meet me tomorrow?" I asked, chuckling.

"Kung ayos lang? Wala pa naman, 'di bang entertainment na kumukuha sa 'yo?" he asked. "Balak sana kitang kuhanin para ro'n sa entertainment company na pinapasukan ko ngayon, e. But that's only if you're available and interested,"

"Maraming kumukuha na entertainment sa 'kin, Oliver," I said.

"Ay, ang yabang," he joked.

I laughed at his remark. "But because you're my favorite cousin, I'll see you tomorrow. I won't bring my manager ba?"

"Ikaw bahala, pero it's better if hindi muna. Choosy kasi 'tong kaibigan ko, e. Ayaw niya sa mga dancer dahil sa ex niya, pero professional naman siya kaya ikaw sana 'yung gusto kong ipakilala sa kaniya. Para tumaas grades ko," Oli nervously laughed.

I laughed at Oliver when I sensed him being tense because of his request. Since he's being honest with me, I told him that I agree and I will come tomorrow to the place he told me. Oliver is my closest cousin because he's really friendly. Marami siyang kaibigan no'ng high school, pati elementary dahil madali siyang pakisamahan. I just don't know if he's still friends with them after all these years.

I was too lazy that day, but since I already promised Oliver that I'll come, I did my best to look good. I arrived at the mall earlier than expected and saw Oliver already at the Starbucks. I went to him before greeting him.
