That Thing Called "Kilig"

Chapter 1 - The New Beginning

The past months, I've been uploading such dubsmash videos for I am pretty much bored lately. Gladly, can't get ahold of myself since I really don't know how to thank the people who made my videos reach a million views. Truly, it is very overwhelming.
I sat by Annica, my sister, and we watched Harry Potter, from part 1-7. Great, isn't it? Actually, kahit nakakatamad, the spells na binabanggit nila are very interesting. Unexpectedly, my phone rang and I immediately answered it, though I don't know who is calling

"Hello?" I asked.

"Good day, Ms. Nicomaine Mendoza!" Ooh, this girl is pretty cheerful enough.

"Umm," Me, being confused as ever, "yes? What is it?"

"Hi! I am Dianne Caprio, I work at Eat Bulaga. Mind if we could meet? Please?"

It took a long time for me to answer. I mean, woah. This girl must be hell'a crazy. She just called me, and says she works at the biggest noontime entertainment show, Eat Bulaga? Well, quite---no, INDEED, VERY INTERESTING. "Umm..."

"Are you a yes or a no?" she asked from the other line.

" I guess, I can. But, where, when, and why?" of course, I am still dumbfounded.

"Oh, Ms. Maine. Where? I can't assure you, but I bet it'll be at SM Marilao. When? Are you free tomorrow?"

"Yea, blissed-free, I suppose."

"Oh, good. Then, we're all set. Bye--" Woah. Is this Dianne girl in a rush or whut.

"Www--wait! How about why?" I hurried.

"Oh you'll know that by tomorrow.But a clue for that: we'll be offering you something that we hope you'll like it." With that tone of voice, I can feel her joy pumping.

"Well, thank you anyway for the time. Nice talking din! God bless Ms. Maine!" She also added.

That was weird. Ano kaya ang posibleng mangyari? Hindi kaya, scam lang yun? Kunwari taga-Eat Bulaga, pero yun pala, taga-Budol Budol gang?! Or, snatcher? faker? What could possibly go wrong by means of tomorrow? Although nagaalala ako ngayon, that Ms. Dianne seems to be trustful enough. So God, ikaw na po ang bahala sa akin. I told this thing to my family, and:

"Oooo emmm geee!" my sister Nicole exclaimed.

"Why the bliss? Hindi ko pa nga alam kung ano ang mangyayari e." I defended.

"Okay, so, ingat ka nalang bukas Menggay ha! Gusto mo pa bang magpasama kay Dylan at kuya Nico mo?" Mom and Dad suggested. Aww, these guys, forever supportive.

"No need, too mature for that. Haha!" protesta naman ni Annica

"Y'all guys are too excited for this, while ako, wala lang. And, hindi ko pa sure kung ano yung i-ooffer nila sa akin. Malay niyo kunin lang akong janitor..." i joked.

"Hay nako. I bet lang Meng ha, that they'll offer you something that could change your life!" Dagdag ni Kuya Nico.

After the discussion with the family, I went to my room and slept. The next day, para bang nag ala Anna ako ng Frozen. Medyo hype and nervous. Sino ba namang hindi? Continuing, naligo na ako, ate my breakfast. Medyo naguluhan ako kung bakit wala sila Mom at Dad. I asked our maid, Ate Riri, and she said na they went jogging somewhere she doesn't know. Thereafter, I left a sticky-note at our dining table: "I'm going na. Incase you need something, call me right away. -Maine"

Since nandito na ako sa mall, I walked straight to Starbucks and bought my drink there. Medyo mahaba ang pila, so I really need to be patient. Imagine, it's like 12:30 pm palang, andami nang umiinom ng coffee sa Starbucks. Hayyy, ang life nga naman, parang buhay. Charing! Proceeding, I received a text message from Dianne.

Dianne: Good afternoon, Ms. Maine.

Me: Good afternoon, too. I'm here already. Where shall we meet?

Dianne: Starbucks. See you! I'm on my way.

Good thing, Starbucks. So all I have to do is wait, and wait, and wait. Oh! It was my turn to order by the way. "Good morning ma'am! May I take your order?" the cashier blurted. "One Chocolate Chip frapp. That's all." I replied.

-

"Hello?" I answered my ringing phone.

"Hi... um, I miss you." Mark blurted out. Mark is my boyfriend, he is very nice and gentle. He is also close to my family, and we've been together for 5 years. Oh, LOYAL diba? Not to brag, but he is the best boyfriend I ever had!

"Awww, I miss you too." I answered with joy.

"So... how are you..?" He asked. Is something wrong? He sounds like something is.

"Fine, how about you?" I can feel him sighing barely deep from the other line.

"You know, I kinda.. well.. I need to tell you---"

"Hey, let's just talk tomorrow. Something seems wrong. Punta ka nalang sa bahay." this is not very good. "May aasikasuhin pa ako. Bye" I added. Oh! I forgot to tell him something.

"I love you, Mark."

I've been waiting for his turn to say I Love You, but all I heard was the "End Call" button being pressed by him, making our lines disconnected.

-
"Ms. Maine!" someone shouted. Well that's embarrassing.

"I'm so sorry we're late. But umm, here we are!" the girl whispered.

"Are you Ms. Dianne?" I asked.

"Yes," she said as she sat beside me, and a guy with glasses sat in front of us. 'I am Dianne Caprio, producer of Eat Bulaga, and this is Douglas Perez, co-producer." the guy waved at me.

"Ok! Nice meeting you guys. So, what brings us here today?"

.

"We want you to be part of Eat Bulaga." They said in a synchronized tone.

"Wait? What?! You're kidding. How am I supposed to do that?"

"Well, you'll be part of Juan For All, All for Juan, and act as "YayaDub", since you are really great in dubbing." Douglas said. "Oh, no offense, pero fan mo ako. You have nice and funny dubsmash videos!" Dianne snorted.

"You'll be also part of that segment. But, you will not speak a word." Douglas added.
Lol, how am I supposed to do that? Make weird faces and will go dubbing some songs? Psh.

"You will be dubbing songs and phrases, to express such emotions. Parang dubsmash lang talaga. But the difference is the whole country will be watching you." Dianne told me. SEE? Guessed it right.

"So, are you a YES or a NO?" Then again, they said in a synced way.
.
.
.
"Yeah sure, I'm gonna go with it." I smiled.

"For you, it's a yes. But we'll meet again on Thursday evening, with your family." They added.

"Okay then. Thank you very much!"
