" hihintayin na lang kita hangang matapos ka sa meeting mo? " . Nasa harapan na kami ng building ng network, at tila ayaw pa akong pababain ni Matteo. Nakatangap ako ng tawag mula sa management na humahawak ng karera ko at kailangan ko silang kitain ngayon. Handa na ako sa mga mangyayari. Handa na ako sa kung anumang kahihitnatnan ng pag-uusap namin ngayon . .

" May trabaho ka pa. Sige na , kaya ko namang umuwi mag-isa. "

" pero gusto kong samahan ka. ."

" hindi pwede. . And besides, hinahanap ka na sa opisina nyo. Ilang araw -no, ilang lingo ka na palang absent. Kaya tama lang na bumalik ka na muna sa trabaho, at magkita na lamang tayo mamayang gabi . " Bakas sa mukha nito na ayaw talaga nyang iwan ako mag isa. . .kailangan ko munang ayusin ang lahat ng tungkol sa trabaho ko. Unlike Matteo, i have a contract to follow. . I need to clear things right now. .Im setting my new priorities now. Im choosing Life over Career. Im choosing Happiness over anything else. .

Mabilis ko itong kinintilan ng halik sa labi saka lumabas ng kotse nya. Alam kong nagulat din kahit ang guwardiya nang makita akong naglalakad papasok ng gusali. .

Diretso lang ang lakad ko, ni hindi ko nga nagawang batiin ang mga bumabati sa akin. Im pre-occupied right now., ive got so many things running inside my head. But im sure, my decision is final.  .

" Good morning Sarah. " seryosong bati ng isa sa mga executives ng network.

" good morning Ma'am Chai ." Sabay na kaming pumasok ng conference room at nagulat pa ako ng halos lahat ay nandoon na. .Mukhang ako na lang talaga ang hinihintay. .

Enzo is here too. Katabi nya ang daddy nya, Ma'am Chai, my manager and Chloe. Apat lang naman sila, at ikalima ako. .

" let's start the meeting. " ani ng Daddy ni Enzo sabay lahad sa akin ng upuan na kaharap ng upuan ni Enzo. Wala nang paligoy-ligoy pa.  . " You've cancelled so many shows, six shows to be exact. Re-schedules shoots, and no-show guestings. And how would you want me to react on that? "

" sir, i wanted to end my contract as soon as possible." Direktang sabi ko. I heard them all gasp.  Well except for Chloe who's beside me, she knows my plan. . She had my schedules arranged properly before i was called for this meeting. That's how efficient she is!!

" you can't do that!!"

" what!!! "  ito ang sabay na sagot ni Enzo at ng daddy nya.

" Well I Can. . I can do that. I wont renew any of the existing contracts that i have now, and im willing to pay to whatever damages i did for being a no-show  these past weeks. .Actually, Chloe has the new schedules for everything. "

" you still have a year to finish everything. " Ma'am Chai butt in. .

" I know. . And as i said earlier, i can pay for whatever contracts im about to break, - -

" you dont have to do that. . Finish everything this year, and you'll have your freedom . .:"

" Dad! Hindi yan tama. May kontrata si Sarah, at dalawang taon pa syang nakatali sa atin!! " galit na turan ni Enzo. I glared at him . . Nagpupuyos sa galit ang puso ko dahil sa kasinungaling ginawa nya sa akin. I treated him as my best friend, and he fucked up everything! He lied to me! He betrayed the trusts ive given him!!

" Hindi ikaw ang may hawak ng karir ko. Hindi ikaw ang magdedesisyon sa aspetong yan. " kalmado kong sabi. I still respect his dad, kahit na winalang hiya ako ng anak nito! !
