"Oh bakit busangot ang mukha mo Julie Anne umagang umaga oh?" Julie is back at their office. Hindi pa naman sila naka-sched to train with Coach Sarah at sa isang araw pa yung scheduled personal practice nila ni Mackie so she decided to go to work muna.

"Si kuya kasi, nakauwi na."

"Omaygad! Ang Ram Jonathan nakauwi na ng Pilipinas!" Maqui shouted dahilan para umirap si Julie.

"Oh? Ee ano'ng inaarte arte mo? Hindi mo ba siya na-miss?" Maqui continued.

"Maq na-miss ko naman si kuya kaso OA na siya, to the highest level!"

"Kasi?"

"Halika dito, tignan mo oh, nakikita mo yang dalawang naka-tux sa baba?" Hinila ni Julie si Maqui at sumilip sila sa may bintana ng floor nila.

"Oh bakit sila?"

"Body guards yan ni kuya, pinapabantayan kaming dalawa ni Joana."

"WHAT?! Taray naman ng bff ko, may Elmo Magalona na, may body guards pa! Maganda!"

"Shut up Maq! Baka marinig ka tungkol kay Elmo huy! Tsaka Hindi nakakatuwa no? Nakakasakal kaya."

"Well, deal with it. As if naman may magagawa ka right?" Julie just heaved a deep sigh. Ano pa nga ba? She thought.

"Ee teka lang, paano na kayo ni Elmo? Kung maraming nakapaligid sa'yo, ano? Matitigang ka na ba? Ako ba muna ang hahalili?" Tinignan ni Julie ng masama si Maq.

"Oh chill lang charot lang naman yun tsaka hindi ko siya type no? Crush ko siya pero hanggang dun lang. Sa iyo na siya saksak mo sa malandi mong pepe."

"Gaga ka talaga." They went back to their cubicle to continue their work.

...

"Coach Elmo, nandito na po sila Maricris at Jane."

"Great sige give us five minutes tapos papasukin mo na sila."

"Kuya Gloc, diva kasi ito'ng dalawa na 'to ee. Binigyan ko sila ng hindi masyadong pang-belt na kanta tapos more rap para maipakita nila yung versatility nila." Elmo's talking to Gloc9.

His two contestants entered the room, having both amusement in their faces.

"OMG, hello po Coach Elmo, sir Gloc9." Maricris greeted. Still amazed at the sight they're seeing.

"Hi Maricirs, hi Jane, this is kuya Gloc9." He introduced the two to Gloc9 and started coaching them.

After almost two hours of practice and mentoring ay nagpaalam na yung dalawa having his instruction to continue practicing with the piece na binigay nito sa kanila.

"Those two were really good. I'm impressed with how you arranged the songs Elmo, your dad must be so proud." Glog9 patted his back, making Elmo grin with glee.

"Thanks kuys. Thank you rin for your assistance. Hindi naman magiging possible yung arrangement kung hindi mo ako tinulungan."

"My pleasure working with THE Elmo Magalona." Gloc9 said. They said their goodbyes and Elmo proceeded to the lobby of the studio.

"So? Tapos ka na Elmo?" One of the producers asked.

"Yes Miss Jan, can I now go?"

"Sure. Thank you for today." The producer smiled and Elmo hurried towards his car. He checked his watch and it's already 7 in the evening.

He reached for his phone to call Julie, sending updates on how was his day and because he has something to tell.

Julie answered on the third ring.
