NASAAN na kaya iyon?

Kanina pa ako lingon nang lingon pero hindi ko pa rin makita ang lalaking tumulong sa akin kanina. Napakamot ako ng kilay at mas humaba ang nguso.

Ni hindi ko man lang nakilala ang pangalan niya! He's kind and good to me. He helped and accompanied me. I think we could be great friends! I love meeting potential new friends!

Ang sabi rin ay narito si Wave, yet I coudn't see him. I don't think people around here knew he was here. That, is if he's here.

Sa sobrang sikat no'n, feeling ko may sariling private yacht 'yon. 'Di 'yon sasama sa guests na may mga media!

Habang nasa dagat kami ay hindi mawala ang isip ko sa lalaking iyon. Hindi naman ata siya guest dahil wala siya sa mga tao na nagkakasiyahan sa yate. Isa pa, no one here has the pair of beautiful eyes, siya lang.

Sino kaya siya? I wanna see him again, he promised me he'd tell me the story behind the Lost Island.

Wow, Zire, binigyan ng responsibility ang stranger?

I saw the man who called him earlier but before I could ask, umiwas na siya.

He must be his manager, so, Wave is probably here.

Hmm...

Bumalik ako sa hall kung nasaan nagkakasiyahan ang mga tao. It was mix, some were from the media and some looked cozy. Mga alta.

I closed my eyes and listened to the soft pluck in the piano, my hair dancing in it. Kumuha ang ng wine mula sa waiter at sumimsim habang tahimik na nag-oobserba.

I can't wait to see the island in the morning. We'd stay in their cabins muna kasi for a while during the duration of the show.

I haven't seen many details about the said island but I know there is a part where the cabanas were located since that part was one of the only places open to the public since most part of the island were untouched.

They said it was sacred.

It made me more curious, why is it so important to them, what's the story behind it? I felt like the lore runs deep my viewers might love it if I feature this in the vlog! Maybe hmm, I'll ask the locals. Mas better!

Habang nananahimik ay nag-isip din ako ng magandang tactic to get Wave's attention. I really couldn't go and join the others kasi what's the difference, right? I should do something else. Should do something better.

I won't assault him and force him to talk because I'm sure he won't and I don't want to harass him. Maybe if I can talk to them, to him, maybe I could score an exclusive interview? Basta! Bahala na!

I know how hard it was living in the spotlight, my sister and mom were in it and I'm sure I know how suffocating it gets.

I just really need a scoop. Something new. I want to get promoted, to prove to myself I chose the right path. That journalism is for me.

"What? That brat! Sinabi ko nang h'wag lalabas ng kwarto!" I stopped when I heard an annoyed voice despite the laughing and noisy crowd.

Nilingon ko iyon at nanlaki ang mata ko nang makita ang lalaking naghahanap kay Wave kanina. Nakatalikod ito sa puwesto ko at may hawak na telepono.

"Tell me him I'll go there! Paano kapag may nakakita sa kanya?!" He hissed angrily and walked away.

Napaayos ako ng tayo, tinungga ang natitirang wine bago ibinalik ang kopita sa waiter para sumunod.
