From Runway To The Sky

SPECIAL CHAPTER

*Liyana's POV*

"Coco, baby. Can you help mommy to arrange the groceries?" tanong ko sa 17 years old kong anak.

It's been a years, almost 10 years. Coco is already turning 18 this coming week and kailangan kong asikasuhin ang debut niya na Seductive Black ang theme. Gusto din kasi ni Coco ang pag momodel kaya gustong gusto niyang umaawra.

"Who will you invite in your upcoming debut?" tanong ko sa anak ko habang inaayos ang mga pinamili ko.

"Friends, close friends, relative of course." sagot niya sa akin. Duda ako sa friends or close friends lang. Wala pa naman siyang nababanggit na may boyfriend siya, pero for me, I'm fine with it.

"Don't you have a boyfriend?"  tanong ko sakaniya na agad na nakapagpalingon sakaniya.

"Mom, are you serious?" tanong niya sakin. "What, no!"

Natawa na lang ako sa reaksiyon niya dahil parang nakikita ko ang sarili ko sakaniya noon kapag tinatanong ako ni Mommy kung may boyfriend na ba ako. Well, hinid ko 'man nakasama mag celebrate ng debut ko si Mommy.

"Hi Hon." bati ko agad sa asawa kong galing ng flight niya.

"Hi Babe, where is the other child?" hanap niya na agad ang isa niyang anak na lalaki nanasa kwarto lang naman niya. 

On Coco's 10th Birthday I found out that I am pregnant to my second child by testing positive on a pregnancy test. Hindi ko muna sinabi sakanila dahil gusto ko munang i sure na okay lang yung baby sa tyan ko. And now I have the 8 years old baby boy named Skyee Marcus, Skye for short. Mas spoiled na ngayon ni Pao si Skye kaysa kay Coco dahil mas maka Mommy si Coco. We have our Chanel Skye and Skyee Marcus.

"Coco, let's fix your debut na ha." sabi ni Paolo na kalalabas lang ng kwarto namin. Sa Pinas na kami nag stay and I already quit my job as a flight attendant after 10 years dahil dalawa na ang aalagaan ko hindi na lang si Coco. But I have my fashion line business.

"Hon, you should look for a venue with Coco this weekend." utos sakin ni Paolo.

"I'll take care of it. When is your next flight?"  tanong ko dahil galing siyang South Korea today and round trip lang iyon.

"I'll take a rest for 2 weeks. I want to spend time with my family. Also if you guys want we can go for a vacation, out of the town, country." sabi ni Paolo sa amin.

"We can discuss that while we are eating, help me prepare."

"Dad, can we go to New York?" tanong ni Coco.

"Sky, you want to go to New York?" tanong naman ni Paolo.

"It's okay."

"Okay! We are going to New York and meet your Tita Elli there and Tito Leo." right, Elli and her family is there sa New York, doon na sila nag stay dahil mas tahimik ang buhay nila. They also got married the months after our marriage. Sila Laica naman naka tagpo na ng Hapon kaya naman sumama na sa Japan. Si Ally naman masaya na at nasa LA na siya. Si Kurt, happy na rin at Senior Cabin Crew na sa Skytrax Air.

"What theme you want Ms. Chanel for your debut?" tanong ng organizer na kinuha namin para sa debut ni Coco.

"I want to be a seductive and elegant black." sagot ng anak ko.

Hindi rin nagtagal ang meeting namin ng organizer ng debut ni Coco, kaya naman lumabas na kami ng office. May isa pa kaming meeting para sa venue na gusto ni Coco na resort kaya naman nag drive na kami papunta doon.
