"Hello, good morning I'm Raziel Tecson, Ms. Guanzon gave me your card that if I'd like to become an actor I'll ring you up." Sagot ko. I'm keeping my voice calm and steady pero deep inside natataranta na talaga ako.
"Oh. It's you, the guy who doesn't know her at na-impress siya sa pag critique mo about Daytime Lovers, anyways let me get to the point are you free ngayon? It's for us to see how you act sa mga iba't ibang scene at kung ma-impress din kami sa acting mo at hahanapan ka na naming ng project. How about that?" Nanlaki mata ko sa sinabi ng lalaki.
"Actually I have a class in 8:30AM pero matatapos din naman to ng 1PM. How about 2PM po" Sagot ko. Mukhang free naman ako ng ganyang oras.
"Sure, sure punt aka lang dito sa GMM31 and sabihin mo na pinapapunta ka ni Simon Perez that's me, I'll see you later Mr. Tecson" Sabi niya sabay baba ng phone. Napabuntong hininga ako dahil sa kabaa at sa bilis ng mga pangyayari.
NAKARATING NA AKO SA university at patungo na sa room namin. Maya maya ay nagsimula na ang klase. I'm staring blankly sa may bintana at nag iisip kung magbibihis pa ba ako kung pupunta ako doon o itong suot ko na isusuot ko, well... naka blue long sleeve at trousers naman ako it looks like a formal attire naman na.
"Mr. Tecson" Napatingin ako sa harap at nakatingin sa akin lahat. Geez anong meron.
"Mr. Tecson why did you choose directing as your major if you're not paying attention in my class?" Tumayo ako at sumagot.
"Lessons are just a guide and prerequisite knowledge that will need in your journey as a director and being a director is not about signaling your staff on what they will do. It's about delivering and organizing the piece of art to your audience wherein they can feel the emotions and sincerity of your work." Umupo ako na parang walang nagyari and she continues her discussion to the class. Studying is like seeking validation, pwede namang tayong matutulo sa sarili nating pagsisikap bakit kailangan pa ng may nagtuturo saka school is just a building na pag nasunod natin ang standards at tama para sa kanila ay bibigyan tayo ng diploma o certificate. I sigh, mga tao nga naman. Biglang nag vibrate phone ko at may message from Camille yung student ko nong nakaraan.
"Good morning Sir Raze, mamayang 2PM po vacant time ko po" Shit! May appointment pa naman ako later.
"Hi Cam, pwede bang i-reschedule muna natin session natin next time, I have an appointment mamayang two eh" Sagot ko.
"Okay po Sir Raze okay lang po :>" Hayst. What a relief. I have 4 students na tinuturuan pero itong si Camille nalang active kaya need ko talaga ng additional na trabaho at income na din.
Nag ring na ang bell and sign na tapos na ang klase ko. Pumunta muna ako ng cafeteria para bumili ng makakain at lumabas ng school.
NASA LABAS NA AKO ng GMM31 nag-ayos muna ako ng sarili bago pumasok ng building. It's 1:50PM na, guess I'm early at mabuti naman. Pumasok na ako at lumapit sa front desk.
"Good afternoon, I'm looking for Mr. Simon Perez" I smiled at her.
"One second po" I nod and she pick up the telephone at may tinawagan. I just stand there, waiting.
"May I know your name po?" She look at me.
"Raziel Tecson" I smile politely. They are still talking.
"Fifty floor, first door on the right po" Sabi niya.
"Thank you" I smile.
