•••-Corinne's POV-
"Cori! You're up next..." senyas sakin ni Manager Shin para maglakad sa platform.
I just kept a straight face and walked like a model...
Well, it is because I really am a model.
Flashes of cameras here and there, audience fascinated by this year's collection, and of course critiques judging every piece of clothing as well as how we portray ourselves on stage.
I did my signature pose before I walked back, resulting to a lot of positive feedbacks. Their delighted nods and ooh/s were already enough.
"Ohh, Cori sweetheart. You never fail me talaga." salubong sakin ni Manager Shin at tsaka ako bineso beso.
And if you're thinking what I think it is. Yes, he is gay.
"How could I if I have the best manager ever?" flattering him.
"Nambola pa! After the final walk, magbihis kana so you can finally take a rest." inayos nito ang pagkakabuhol ng scarf ko. "I know you still have a client to meet tomorrow."
Tumango lang ako rito bilang sagot. Well, I currently have 2 jobs after all. I model under Manager Shin's company and also I am a freelance interior designer. I should make use of what I took for college at least diba?
After doing the final walk, agad kong tinahak ang dressing room. Clothes were everywhere, make up and beauty equipments were also all over the place.
Kasama ko ang ibang model na nagpalit na ng casual na damit. Halata ang mga pagod sa mukha, maski ako ay nagugutom na.
Nang makapag ayos na ko ng sarili at gamit, lumabas na ako ng kwarto bago pa ito lalo mapuno ng mga naggagandahang babae.
"Cori!" Agad naman akong napalingon nang marinig ang boses ni Manager. "I know you're tired and hungry... Let's eat?"
•••
Napili ni Manager Shin na kumain na lamang sa hotel na pinagsastayan ko na pag mamay ari niya rin. "Good evening Sir Shin and Miss Parker, what would you like to eat?" bati ng waiter samin.
"Bring out the best steak and wine tonight. If there's Sauvignon Blanc, much better." agad na tumango ang waiter at umalis na.
"Anong meron? Are we celebrating something tonight?" I looked at him in confusion. Hindi naman birthday ni Manager ngayon?
"I had a talk with someone when you were busy at the event earlier," he scrambled through his phone while talking. "I was able to get you scouted in another company."
Natigilan naman ako sa sinabi niya, we never talked about this.
"Are you perhaps tired of me, Manager Shin?" I asked reluctantly.
"Oh dear, what- no!" siya naman ang natigilan pero ilang sandali pa ay hinarap niya sakin ang cellphone niya. "You'll get trained under YG in South Korea. Of course, I'll still be your one and only Manager Shin!" tiningnan ko naman ang picture niya kasama ang isa pang kilalang scouting manager. "Besides, if things don't work out the way it is. You can always come back to my company."
