CHAPTER 38

“You okay, Love? Kanina ka pa tulala. May problema ba?”

“Ah! Ha? Ano nga ulit 'yon?” I went back to my senses nang hawakan ni Demon ang noo ko to check my temperature. I was too preoccupied sa kakaisip ng possible outcome ng fashion show tomorrow. It's one of my big event kaya sobrang pag-hahanda ang ginawa ko.

“I said are you alright? Nakashabu ka ba, Alien? Kanina ka pa tulala.” He glanced at me again bago nag-focus ulit sa pag-d-drive. We're now heading sa Church and it's Sunday.

“Oo naman! Kinakabahan lang talaga ako for tomorrow. It's my first time ulit sa runway simula nang nag-quit ako sa US and it was 2 years ago.” I sighed and stared outside the window kaya nakita ko na naman ang billboard along the way for tomorrow's event. “I'm all over the city, huh?”

“You'll surely conquer the runway tomorrow, Love. Para naman 'tong sira. Ngayon pa kinabahan na parang hindi all over the newspaper ang announcement sa pagiging taga pag-mana mo!” He laughed kaya mabilis ko siyang sinamaan ng tingin.

“I have no choice!” I rolled my eyes when I suddenly remembered what happened last week sa birthday party ko. “Ikaw din kaya!”

It was booming because out of a sudden, ang daming mga business offers ang lumapit sa akin just to negotiate with the fact that I don't have any idea pa how to run the business. I've been all over the newspaper because of that announcement with the Fuentella's name after dahil sa good partnership daw kapag kinakasal na kami ni Demon.

“Media is media, Love. We have no control sa bagay na 'yon,” He shrugged and turned the steering wheel sa parking area ng church. “Nandito na pala ang Premium.” Napakamot na lang siya sa ulo kaya natawa ako nang marealize na parang may parada na naman ng kotse ang apat dahil tabi-tabi na naman ang sasakyan nila.

“Sa kabila tayo.” I laughed kaya inilipat niya ang parking sa kabilang side. “Mukha silang nag-papayabangan ng kotse, eh!”

“Hayaan mo sila. Girlfriend lang ang kaya kong ipagyabang, e,” He swiftly kissed my right cheek bago bumaba para pagbuksan ako ng pintuan.

“Patay na patay ka talaga sa akin, 'no?” I patted his head habang tumatawa kaya natawa din siyang inakbayan ako papasok sa loob.

It's actually a good thing na hindi ako part ng music team ngayon dahil sa dami kong iniisip. Gusto kong kapag tatayo ako sa unahan ay buo ako at tanging kay Lord lang ang focus.

“Hi, Ate Emy!” Shin greeted with Marcus beside her kaya napangisi ako.

“Hello, Shin!” I gave her a peck on her cheeks as well as the barkada. Andrew is in front with Demon dahil sila ang mag-lilead ng service.

“By the way, this is Marianne Tania Rosler, my best friend!” She introduced the girl beside her na mukhang maldita din like Shin pero maganda.

“Hala! Totoo ba 'to!? Nasa harap ko si Ate Emerald? Grabe ang ganda mo talaga!” She giggled at hinawakan pa ang kamay ko kaya natawa ako.

”Hi!” I smiled and gave her a light hug. “Welcome sa CBCF. I'm glad na na-invite ka ni Shin.”

“She changed a lot kaya it curious me. I'm starting to wonder sa mga ginagawa niya and she mentioned that she's attending church,” sabay baling niya kay Shin na may malawak na ngiti habang nagkwekwento. After that, I excused myself first to welcome some visitors habang hindi pa nagsisimula.
