Chapter 21

.

Ilang linggo na rin ang nakaraan simula ng alagaan ko si Zak. Ever since that day, I started calling him frequently and asking his secretary for his everyday schedule so that I know when to call him. And sa shooting naman mas lalong dumami ang mga fans ni Trevor, and the other actresses and actors that I'm working with na nagkukumpulan sa labas ng building. They also received some gifts from their fans, ako pa lang ata ang hindi- which somehow saddens me... no, it's making me envy them.

"Cut! Lunch time, one hour," Felicity announced

Basil and I parted and walked toward our table. Nagshoot kami ng scene naming dalawa ngayong umagas since his the Male lead's love rival. Hindi kami masyadong close ni Basil though we stay professional on set at saka we still have a small talk like any other actors here.

"Hindi pa dumarating order ko na food, drink this na muna." Ate Kisha simply said and passed me an energy drink.

"Thanks," I whispered and sat down.

I looked around the building while sipping the energy drink. I squinted my eyes when I saw a guy in a black suit like what bodyguards wear.

"Are you Xochiquetzal Valmorida?" He asked in a stern voice when he approached me. He also exchanged glances on his phone and me.

My lips parted, ibinaba ko ang energy drink ko saka siya hinarap.

"Yes, why? what do you need from me?" I raised my eyebrows. I don't know this guy, so why should I be nice to him? Saka, he looks intimidating.

Pati si Ate Kisha ay napatingin na rin sa amin. May inilabas siyang papel saka ibinigay sa'kin.

"Sign here..." he pointed at the receiver's signature. "And go outside for your gift." Saad nito, binigyan niya rin ako ng ballpen.

I took the paper from him and read it. It's about like what he said, the gift thingy, nothing suspicious.

I glanced at him first before deciding to sign the waiver. Ibinigay ko rin agad sa kanya ang waiver, tumayo siya ng maayos at gestured me the way outside.

Pagkalabas ko ay nanlaki ang mata ko sa gulat. My heart starts beating faster than a normal heartbeat.

I saw two food trucks parked. The other one was with Basil and Ashley's name on it, and the other one was mine. My name and my face were painted on it perfectly.

"W-Who sent it?" I asked, stuttering.

Wala sa lalaking nakapang-bodyguard and tingin ko, kundi sa food truck. I mean, this is the first time that someone has sent me this, hindi pa matunog ang pangalan ko.

"Him." Simpleng sagot ng lalaki sa tanong ko.

I look at my phone when it vibrates. When I checked the lock screen, I saw Zak's message.

"Do you like it?" A small smile crept from my rosy lips as I read his message, I pressed his message notification saka siya nireplyan.

To: Zak
11:03 AM
Oh my gosh! You didn't have to, but yes, I love it. Thank you!

From: Zak
11:03 AM
I'm glad that you love it, then.

To: Zak
11:04 AM
Seriously, thank you, Zak. I never expected that you'll send something like that.

From: Zak
11:05 AM
It's a fan's pleasure to send a gift to its idol. I gotta go, enjoy your day.

I giggled upon reading it. Mas lalong bumilis ang tibok ng puso ko at naramdaman ko ang pamumula ng pisnge ko.
