"Sir, we have a problem." Hurriedly entered by the Secretary. Inside the room is a man full of authority. Has broad shoulders with a thick muscles. He'll towered you by his height that everyone sees him, will look at him as a King. A type of man that you shouldn't be mess off, or you'll be living on hell. The man who doesn't smile, but still he can make the women drool over him with just his mere presence. A very serious guy. His world revolves only on his company.
"How important it is that you dared to barge in without even knocking?" His cold voice filled in the room that even his Secretary feels chill all over her body.
"I-im s-sorry, Sir." He stops reading, took off his glasses and leaned on his swivel chair with his arms crossed on his chest. Pinagtaasan niya ito ng kilay ng marinig niyang nauutal ito. Every time he talk to his Secretary, she always stutter.
"I don't have time dealing with your speaking disorder." Matigas na sabi nito at binigyan ng malamig na tingin.
"Now, tell me what is that fucking problem." Inis na saad nito. His hand landed on his temple, at bahagyang hinilot ito, causing him to close his eyes. He's been stress out lately. His company will be holding an annual event today. They will be presenting their newly produced products in the market such as clothing lines, jewelries, bags, and even make-up products. He wants perfect, so he's handling it well with care.
"T-the final model for tonight's show is in the hospital, Mr. Collins. She got involves into a minor accident, and sprained her ankle. I'm afraid to say this but, she called a while ago saying that she can't perform tonight." When he open his eyes, his cold gaze landed on the Secretary. With a clenching jaw, he stood up, and banged his hand on the table.
"Do you want me to hold that small problem? Instead of standing their like a scared cat, why don't you get your ass off of here and tried to look for a potential models?" Dumagundong ang boses nito, like a tiger roaring. Na siyang nagbigay nang matinding takot sa Secretary nito.
"And where is the Production Team? It should be them dealing with that problem, not me."
"Sir. We tried contacting all the famous models, but the RCA already got them. And about the Production Team, they're already taking actions with this matter." Sa narinig ay mabilis itong umupo at masamang tumingin sa kawalan, na para bang nasa harapan lang nito ang CEO ng RCA. This annual event participated by many famous company in the Philippines. And one of their competitors are the RCA. The two are always competing for first spot.
"That old hag. He is surely good at ruining someone's plan." Nagngingitngit na ito sa galit na hindi na niya namalayang tumutunog na ang telepono nito. When the ring stops, ang cellphone naman ng Secretary nito ang tumunog. She's still standing their, with her legs shaking.
"Sir." Tawag pansin nito ng matapos niyang sagutin ang tawag. He eyed him coldly kaya naman ay nanghina na naman ang tuhod nito.
"T-the Production Team will hold a meeting with this matter. They're asking if you can go?" Mabilis nitong tiningnan ang orasan na nakasabit sa kaniyang dingding. Without a word ay tumayo ito, grabbing his coat and his bag.
"No. I'll be at the event hall this time. Tell them to handle it perfectly, or else." He stood in front of the Secretary, na ngayon ay parang alipin ng nakayuko sa kaniyang hari.
"I'll make sure to fire all of you." Huling sambit nito bago lumabas ng kaniyang opisina. Naiwan doon ang kaniyang Sekretarya na saka lamang nakahinga ng maluwag ng mawala ang Boss nito.
"SHE's pretty and has a good shape. I think she can be our final mo--." Her words hang on the air when someone cut her.
"She's pretty, yes. She's sexy, yes. But famous? No. The final model is not just for pretty and sexy, we need a famous too. She will wear our designs, you think people will buy if they don't know who is the model?"
"I agree. Consumers buy if they see their idols wearing that thing. Now, if you keep on suggesting not so famous model, then our show will not be hit. To think that some of the audience will be there to see their idols, then no fans will go thinking that their idols will not be there."
"So do you have a people in mind?"
The man with a heart of woman stood up, walk with graceful as he goes to the front. He stood there confidently as a queen, as he eye his members one by one.
"Do you have a suggestion, Mr. Adrian Javier?" He cleared his throat, and then push the button. Pictures of a woman flash on the screen. Lahat ng tao ay nabigla sa nakita nila, some of them eye the pictures with awe, some of them can't believe they're seeing it right.
"Mr. Javier, where did you get those pictures?" The girl in the picture is a woman with a Goddess like beauty. Her small and round eyes coloured with ocean blue. Her big nose that stood proudly. Her kissable lips coloured with a natural shade of pink. And with those two deep holes appearing on her cheeks when she smiles. All of them was shock, not because of the face itself, but because of who she is.
Sophia Andrea Dawson. Ang taong mailap sa media. She's a singer with a million fans all over the world. She's known for her angel like voice. And to think that she only has one picture on the internet, the rest, wala na. She's not active on all media platforms, but that doesn't mean that all people don't recognize her. She's known for being mysterious because no one knows when will she appear or not. One second you'll see her singing, one second she went missing. She don't do concerts, she don't do music videos, she don't do interviews, she don't do guestings. You can only hear her on the radio.
"When you can't find a famous model, then look for a famous singer." Maarteng pahayag nito habang ang tingin ay nakatutok sa mga kasama niya.
"Then how can we talk to her? Even her Manager don't know her schedule for today." It's true. No one knows her whereabouts, no one knows what is her plans for today.
Adrian heave a sigh as he flash another pictures. There you can see a picture of him, with Ms. Dawson, they seemed to be close with one another. That revelations lead to them with mouth hang open. Hindi naman mapigilan ni Adrian ang mapangiwi habang tinitignan ang mga kasama na parang nakakita ng multo dahil sa mga hitsura nila.
'I'm sorry bebe Andrea, but I need to do this.' Pahayag nito sa kaniyang isipan.
They are best friends. At siya lang ang nakakaalam ng mga personal na bagay patungkol sa dalaga. He knows where she lives, and even her phone number. In short, he knows all about her.
"As you can see, we are close with one another base on the pictures that you saw."
"Then that means, you know her whereabouts? You can contact her right?" May pag-asang tanong ng mga kasamahan nito. Pilit na tumango ito, na naging dahilan para lumawak ang mga ngiti ng mga kasama nito.
"Then Adrian, I'll leave this matter to you." Akmang tatayo na ang Team Leader nila ng pigilan ito ni Adrian.
"We're still not sure kung papayag ba siya. Knowing her, modelling is a big no for her. To think that she will appear on a national TV."
"Then what's the point of showing her pictures to us? You couldn't have suggested her if you're not sure that she will agree with this." All of them gave a pleading look to Adrian. Na para bang sa kaniya nakasalalay ang mga buhay nila.
"I'm begging you Mr. Javier. Please save us. Please save the company." Ngayon ay nagsisisi na siya kung bakit ba niya ipinakita ang mga litrato ng kaibigan. He could have suggested another woman, not her.
"She's the one we've been looking for. She's perfect. And to think that her fans are dying to see her in person, many people will go just to have a glance on her. She's been a mysterious to all people up until now, and her appearance will be a big hit on us." He's hesitating if he nod his head or not, but when he see the faces of his members, he lost it.
He fish his phone and dialled his friend's number. Three rings and the person on the other line accept it.
"Hello?" He close his eyes tightly as he heard the voice on the other line. He doubt that she will accept her favor. She hates medias, she hates appearing on TV's. And most importantly, she hates the company he's working with. To think that his boss is her ex. The man who broke her heart three years ago.
