Destined or Not?

Chapter 30

Amanda's POV

Ghad, this is the first time I saw Albert James doing good with his thing. I mean, he's really good when it comes to taking good photos and all. Matagal na rin niya kasing hilig yan, and I remember nung nandito pa si dad sila ang laging magka-bonding sa bagay na yan. Well my dad is a photographer way back.

Going back to what I'm saying, looking at Jae doing a great job makes me happy. Of course, naka salalay dito career ko 'no, but aside from that, natutuwa din ako dahil nakikita ko siyang ginagawa ang best niya dito. I can see his eagerness and willingness to help me here. Though I know isa sa mga dahilan din nito ay yung kotse ko.

But yeah, tutupad ako sa deal namin kung magustuhan ng boss ko lahat ng shots niya. Alam ko naman na matagal na niyang gustong gusto magkaroon ng sarili niyang kotse kaya ipapamana ko na rin yun sakanya. Haha.

Anyway, I'm just here watching him and Chelsie. Thanks to both of them! Without them, my career will be at risk. Char lang.

I can see in Jae's eyes that he's enjoying... enjoying taking photos of his special someone. How did I know? Well, kilalang kilala ko na yan si Jae. Hinda man kami palaging magkausap o kwentuhan, hindi man siya nagsasabi ng feelings niya sakin, alam na alam ko na yan. Tinuring ko na siyang kapatid, even though he's so stubborn mahal ko ang lokong yan.

I don't know if Chelsie can see it from where she is, but I do. Kada shots niya, titignan niya ito sandali pagkatapos mapapangiti siya. Pero yung ngiti niya hindi masyadong obvious so I doubt kung makita nga ni Chelsie yun. Alam mo yung ngiti na bahagya lang? Ugh I can't explain it but that's it! Yung ngiting pilit itinatago, ganun!

Kanina nga before mag start ang shoot nagreklamo pa siya kung bakit ganun daw ka-revealing yung gown na ipinasuot namin kay Chelsie. Natawa ako of course! It's not too revealing, medyo lang dahil backless nga yung gown. Well ganyan talaga si Jae, even with me, kapag nakikita niyang masyadong maiksi yung suot ko maiinis siya at pagpapalitin niya ako ng damit. Pero wala siyang magagawa, ako ang mas matanda so mainis na lang siya! Haha. I know he's just being protective.

Hindi ko naman masisisi si Jae, his girl is so damn gorgeous with her gown. She's more like a queen! And damn it, she's really good doing her part. She has great poses and all. From the way she change a pose to another, she's doing great!

"Magaling sila pareho huh" sabi ni Belle, staff ng magazine company na kasama ko kung san namin ife-feature ang shoot na ito. Isa siya sa mga editors ng article and at the same time she's also a writer in that company as far as I know.

"I know, kukuha ba naman ako ng palpak?" napa ngiti ako.

"Who's that girl again? Professional model ba siya? I like her fierce and elegant look especially with that gown."

Hindi ako sumagot, ngumiti na lang ako. Natutuwa ako para sa dalawang batang 'to. Mas natutuwa ako para sakanila dahil hindi lang ako yung nakakakita at nakaka appreciate ng ginagawa nila. I'm so proud of them! They will have a great future indeed knowing that both of them are talented.

"Are they dating? The photographer is your cousin right?"

I nodded, "Why?" I asked.

"Oh... kanina ko pa kasi sila tinitignan, they look lovely together. I can imagine them doing another shoot together in a different issue. Ghad, I can think of so many things to write on that article if ever!"

Base on what she's saying, talagang natutuwa siya sa dalawa. But I'm still confuse.

"What do you mean?" I asked in confusion.

"Amanda, you know I'm a writer and I love writing any thing about love. I can see these two be featured on my article"

Oh gosh! I forgot! Yah! May sarili siyang article sa magazine issue nila every month and that composed of 1 to 2 pages. Every mag issue na nilalabas ng company nila, hindi pwedeng hindi mo mababasa yung article na isinulat niya. She's writing love advices, dating, and anything that concerns about love issue. Last month lang she wrote something about 'how to have a strong relationship that lasts', and hell yeah ginagawa ko yung mga sinabi niya dun. Funny though, but I want to have a strong relationship with my boyfie so I did.
