Loving The Famous

"Do you know the trouble you just made?"

I turned my head to face Mr. And Mrs. Roque. The owner or big bosses of the network I am working for. With their faces right now, I can say that they're mad. Extremely mad.

My manager and I was called for a sudden meeting the day after my revelation. Expected ko na ang galit nila.

"Not only you bypassed us, but you embarrassed us, to the whole country Jasmine, it's like you spit on our faces. On your own family!"

Kinuyom ko ang mga palad ko, trying to not lose my patience. I looked at My on my side, and she's terrified. Family, huh.

"I can file against you for what you did, do you know that?" Si Mrs. Roque na mas makapal pa sa makeup niya ang kapal ng mga alahas na nakakabit sa leeg niya.

"What did I do? You're suing me because I broke up with Tommy?" And buong tapang kong tanong. Bago ko ginawa ang pagsisiwalat ko sa totoong relasyon namin ni Tommy, alam ko nang aabot ako sa ganito, pero hindi ko inaasahan na aabot kami sa kasuhan.

"Oh don't act like so naive Jasmine..."

"I'm not. I'm asking you, what's with the legal action? I know my contract, I still have 5 years with you, and I'm not planning to leave, at least yet. I just told the media about my true relationship with Tommy. That's it."

"That's about it! Jasmine! You are so full of yourself doing actions without any permission."

"Excuse me, sir, with all due respect, but that's a personal matter, I don't think I need your permission with that."

"Look at you, no regrets at all, not even sorry." Pagtutuloy niya

Why would I feel sorry?

"Ganyan na ba ang isusukli mo sa amin pagkatapos ka naming tulungan?"

I stayed silent, alam kong hindi makakatulong kung sasabayan ko sila.

"We own you Jasmine, every personal and non personal thing about you, it should belong to us."

Kailan pa?

"Kami dapat ang pinag uusapan ngayon, sa network natin dapat ang views na yun, kami dapat ang kikita at hindi kani-kaninong channel diyan!"

Sad reality. They only care about money and fame.

"Plus, hindi kayo dapat maghiwalay ni Tommy, dapat isipin niyo rin ang mga trabaho niyo. Napaka selfish mo, Jasmine."

Ako ba ang selfish dito? O sila?

"Forgive us, Mrs. Roque, I've been trying to talk to Jasmine and fix this as soon as possible, baka pwede pa natin maayos ito. I'm sure Tommy will agree to.."
