Fall Behind the Scene

Ingat

"Okay! Mr. Lopez, that's enough." Antoinette said with her sweetest voice after Adrian performed. She smiled and gave him a sign.

I can't help but to think "Basta talaga gwapo?" I simply rolled my eyes before I turned to Adrian.

"You can go now." saad ko rito.

"Iyon na ba 'yon? Pasado na ba agad ako?"

"I can't say it yet. We'll put up the answer as soon as we can. You can just look at the bulletin board. Maybe it will be there next week."

He looked at me with a confused face, so I raised a brow. He was about to say something, but I ignored him and called the next candidate.

When I saw who was coming in, I did a mental facepalm. He was dressed in his usual outfit of black jeans and a white t-shirt. He stood up and grinned at us in a very confident way. Everyone was obviously captivated by his charm. When I turned around, they were staring at him as if they were going to strip him. It made me want to throw up.

Ano ba ginagawa niya rito? I can't help but think about it, I know this guy, and I didn't realize that this is his thing. I know something is off.

"Mag o-audition ka ba, o magpa-pacute?" I try not to sound distracted.

I just can't believe it! Pati ba naman dito ay susundan niya ako? I'm not sure, but I'm familiar with him and his wicked ways. Is he even capable of performing? Seryoso ba talaga siya?

Saglit lang... bakit ba sobrang bothered ako? I have to calm myself down.

"Depende po sa gusto mo, pareho ko pong kaya 'yon. Should I start now?"

He answered me thoughtfully, but why does it sound sarcastic?

Narinig ko ang ipit na tawa ng mga kasamahan ko dahil sa pambabara ng lalaking ito sa akin. Sinamaan ko sila ng tingin at muling ibinalik ang mga mata sa harapan ko.

"I don't like wasting my time here, be sure you prepare something good for us. Well, do you even prepare something?"

He looks at me as if he is offended, but I don't care. After all, I'm just being honest.

"You really think you know me, huh?" tumaas ang kilay niya kasabay ng akin.

"Do you even know who, and what I like? What if I exceed your expectation?" natutop ang dila ko habang nilalabanan ang mapanghamon niyang tingin.

"Ako naman ba ang hahabulin mo para makuha mo?" he said and drop a smirk.

What the hell is that?

Hinahamon niya ba ako? Damn you, Delos Santos! Papatulan ko sana ang pasaring nito, ngunit naunahan ako ng isang pamilyar na tinig.

"Okay, that's enough! Just start whenever you're ready." I was taken aback when I heard Antoinette.

Sinilip ko ito at napansin ang mariing titig nito kay Cavin. She then turned her head to look at me, and feast me with her cold stare. Napayuko naman ako agad at pakunwaring binasa ang papel na nakalagay sa lamesa namin.

"Hi! I'm Cavin Ryle Delos Santos. I'm from the College of Management."

Napairap ako sa kawalan nang marinig ko ang ibang bulungan, at mahinang tili ng iilang nanunuod. I shook my head on disbelief.

After briefly introducing himself, he started to show his acting skills. I just watched him while he was throwing his lines. Honestly, he looks pretty awkward. But I must admit that there is potential.
