"Can you blame them though? If the actresses they want have potential? Baka sobrang bagay lang talaga ng gusto nilang artista sa character kaya pinaglalaban nila." Augustus.

"I don't blame them. Walang masama sa gusto nila. Pero ang siraan at hamakin ang isang tao dahil lang hindi nila matanggap na nahigitan nito ang iniidolo nila, doon ako naiinis! I feel so bad for Kelly. She doesn't deserve all the hate. She's only doing her best because this is her passion at hindi niya na kasalanan na siya ang pinili!"

"Ganon ba kalayo si Kelly sa bida para ganyanin nila?" Augustus.

"Malayo siya, oo. But Kelly's casting type is broad, based on the TV shows and movies I saw her act on. As I said, she's a versatile actress so she can play a lot of roles. Besides, in figuring out kung ano ang mga nararapat na role sa isang artista, it's not about what you are personally. It's about what you can play. For instance, you're playing the role of a killer. It doesn't mean you need to be a killer yourself first para magampanan mo ito ng maayos. O kaya kunwari ikaw... you're an actor and you auditioned for a play. You look like the male lead and you also have SOME of his qualities. Kaso ang problema, hindi lahat ng kaya niya, kaya mo rin. Kasi kahit may characteristics ka na tulad ng sa kanya, ikaw parin si Augustus at magkaibang tao parin kayo."

"Maybe I can learn and do workshops though?" Augustus.

"Ang tanong, maghihintay ba ang lahat para sa'yo? When there is someone out there whose weapon is his talent and passion. He doesn't rely only on his looks and personality. Instead, he turns himself into another identity, becoming a completely different person to fit for the role. He's a superstar waiting to happen."

Nginitian niya 'ko na may kasamang pagkamangha. Hays. Bilib sa'kin 'to! "So Kelly is a superstar waiting to happen?" Proud akong tumango. "At hindi ka pa fan sa lagay na 'yan a?"

"Tsk! Di pa naman masyado..."

"Maliban kay Kelly... can you give me an actress na makakapagpatotoo sa sinasabi mo?" Pangungwestyon niya na kala mo pinagdedefense ako.

Psh!

"Oo naman! Maraming magagaling na artista sa Pilipinas ano ka ba! One example is Kathryn Bernardo. Mahinhin siyang babae pero nagawa niyang gumanap na boyish, pasaway, OFW, at marami pa! THAT is what I call an artist. A great talent. She doesn't stick to one particular role where people see her as. She doesn't act just because she can see herself in a character.  She acts to give life and BE that character for a moment. Kahit gaano pa siya kalayo rito."

Hindi nawawala ang tuwa sa mga mata niya habang pinakikinggan ang lahat ng sinasabi ko. Nang siguro'y nangawit siya kakatingala sa'kin ay naupo siya. He bit his lower lip then sat beside the laptop in front of me.

"Why are you so passionate about this again?" Aniya habang nakatagilid ang ulo at ang kanyang dalawang kamay ay nasa likod, sumusuporta sa bigat niya. "And you're really making efforts to make people understand."
