SCARLETT'S POV
After packing my clothes, inayusan na agad ako ng team. They curled my long hair. Kinulayan din nila ng red ang nails 'ko. Pinasuot nila sa 'kin ang green dress na hanggang legs and an ankle boots. Lahat ay product ng Prada because I'm endorsing them.
"Are you ready?" nilapitan ako ni Ate nang maiwan ako sa tapat ng vanity mirror. "Hey, Scarlett... we have to leave now,"
It's a one-week trip to New York. If okay lang ako, I would have prepared a list of tourist spots that I'll visit during my stay. Kaso nahahati ang utak 'ko. I can't even enjoy my break dahil sa gulo ng isip 'ko.
"Okay." tumayo ako at dala ang pouch na lumabas ng bahay 'ko.
Kasama 'ko ang team sa loob ng van. They are talking about how excited they are to visit New York again. Puro pasasalamat ang naririnig 'ko dahil kung hindi raw dahil sa 'kin ay hindi sila makakapunta roon. It's 10 in the morning nang makasakay sa airplane. It's a 15-hour-and-35-minutes ride. Kahit ayoko ay sa Smith Airline kami sumakay dahil ayon lang naman ang kinuha sa akin ng management.
The hotel suite they have for me is really nice. Top floor and the view is alluring. Kita ang makukulay na city lights. The management booked me alone in a suite, sa kabilang kwarto naman ang team pati na rin si Ate Ciara.
Matapos 'ko magpahinga ay saktong 5 AM ay inayusan nila ako. At 7 AM, we went to the studio where they'll take my photoshoot. The shoot ended at 6 PM.
Tuwang-tuwa sila sa 'kin dahil ang ganda 'ko raw talaga. I look so natural and elegant daw. Hindi sila makapaniwala na may katulad 'ko. They treat me as a natural treasure.
At dahil free time 'ko naman na at uuwi na kami bukas, I let them take a day off. Mag-enjoy na sila sa New York habang ako ay nagkulong sa kwarto 'ko. I ordered a room service na lang for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Nang kinahapunan, I received an international call from the Philippines. Si Chloe ang tumatawag. It's already 9 in the evening here so it means it's 9 in the morning there.
Naupo ako sa couch at binaba ang hawak na wine glass. "Hello?"
["Have dinner with us!"]
Tinignan 'ko ang bintana at bumuntong hininga, pinipigilan ang sarili na tawanan ang kahibangan niya, "nasa New York ako baliw,"
["I know!"] asik niya. ["Sa makalawa pa naman ang dinner, just take your time. Be pretty! Gano'n lang!"]
"Anong meron?"
