When The Pen Ran Out Of Ink.

Chapter 1

 
CUTE KIDS

I LOOKED at my nails and my forehead immediately frowned. Mukhang kailangan ko nang magpalit ng nail colors, pink doesn't fit my mood. I shrugged. Mamaya nalang siguro. I took a sip of my mocha, at mas lalong pumangit ang mood ko. The temperature was not right! I like my mocha, cold! But this one is damn warm!

Padabog kong inilapag ang tasa sa glass table at kinuha ang remote ng tv tsaka ito in-on. Sakto namang ipinapalabas ang teleseryeng sinusulat ko. Hmm, much more like it.

It's a hit telseserye; and I'm proud of it. Pinanood ko ito ng may mga ngiting nakapaskil sa mga labi ko. I gotta admit, the actors and actresses I've chosen are quite good. They bring out the emotions that i wanted to express through the story.

I was still smiling while watching when the office's door suddenly opened. Napabaling ako don at tumambad sakin ang maputi st matangkad na babaeng matalim na nakatitig sakin. Oh, shit. Ashianna is shooting daggers at me!

Seriously, what did i do–

Oh!

Now i remember.

"Hi, bes!" Kimi akong ngumiti sakanya. Gosh! Her aura is scary, and the way she looks at me? Parang gusto nya nalang akong lukutin at ibalibag!

She walked near me, and i almost applauded myself when i did the same. Rinig na rinig ang tunog nga mga takong namin habang naglalakad kami papalapit sa isat-isa.

  " The fuck, she?!" Napapikit nalang ako. I bit my lower lip and prepared myself for another ear piercing scholding.

" Where were you?! Alam mo bang hinahanapan na tayo ng script?"

I know. isang linggo na.

" Sheryl, we signed this agreement. Alam mong ikaw lang ang pupwedeng magsulat ng teleseryeng yon! We could get jailed for this you know! Thats a big company that were talking about, kahit anong oras ay kayang kaya nilang gawing bula ang department natin!"

Yeah, i know..

" But our department is also strong. Kilala na ang department natin sa buong pilipinas, ash. It won't be easy for them"
Kontra ko.

" I know, sheryl. But it can damage our reputation, big time! What happened to you? Anong nangyari at nagkaganto ka?"

I don't know either. That telseserye, it's true that im the author of it. And it's also true that i haven't submitted the next scene yet. Anong ipapasa ko? Blangkong papel? Duh, I haven't written a single word!

" Im just...tired, i guess." I don't know, bigla nalang parang may kulang. The reason why i haven't written a single word yet was because of unsatisfactory.
Parang palaging may mali, may kulang. It was as if a large peice of me was yearning for something.

Ashianna's face softened. Lihim akong napangiti. This girl. She's always been my best friend. She's like a sister to me, since siya nalang naman ang natitirang maaari kong maturing na pamilya.

Matagal bago sya nagsalita ulit.

" How about a vacation?"

Nangunot ang noo ko at napatingin sakanya. Seriously? One moment she was raging mad dahil late na ako sa pagsubmita ng project ko, but now? She wants me to go on vacation? Wait. Does she mean, she'll fire me?! Nanlalaki ang mga matang tiningnan ko sya.

" Oh stop your shitty thoughts sheryl." Eh? She wont fire me? Oo nga naman. Isa akong napakalaking kawalan pag nagkataon.

Not to brag but, yeah. Im quite famous that's why madali ring sumikat ang mga teleseryeng sinulat ko. Yeah, this is not my first time writing a telseserye. Im not new to this feild. Kaya nga ganon nalang ang pagtataka ko ng mawalan ako bigla ng gana rito. Heck, writing is my passion!
