Mikay is currently appreciating the beauty of New York habang nakasakay siya sa limousine na sumundo sa kanya sa airport. The last time she was here was five years ago. How time flies by so fast. She was just 18 back then…
Sa nakikita niya ay papunta sila sa Upper East Side ng Manhattan kung saan dito halos nakatira ang mga may sinasabi sa buhay. The production team had arranged everything for her including her own apartment. Apartments there are different, of course.
After just a few minutes ay narating na nga nila ang tutuluyan niya pansamantala. Sa panlabas na itsura ay makikitang kapareho lamang ito ng mga katabing apartment. May kanya-kanyang few steps na hagdan sa labas papunta sa main door. Then, sa itaas ay may maliit na balcony.
Pagpasok naman niya ay tumambad na sa kanya ang isang napakaluwang na fully-furnished na loob. Everything is in there. May nakikita rin siyang mukhang mga gifts or freebies na nakabalot pa….
She can’t deny the fact na excited siya sa next step na gagawin niya sa buhay niya. It’s quite liberating to feel na kayang-kaya na nga niya. Pero hindi pa rin naman maaalis ang kalungkutan na meron siya. Kung sana ay hindi lang ito sumuko agad… If he’s only here….
Her mind was disturbed by a ring on her phone…
Mikay: Hello?
Ryan: Hello, Mikaela?
Mikay: Yeah… Who’s this?
Ryan: This is Ryan, your road manager here…
Mikay: Oh yeah! Mike already told me about you…
Filipino rin ito na naka-base sa New York.
Ryan: Really… Well, that’s good, then…
Mikay: So, what’s gonna be up?
Ryan: Well, may welcome party kasi mamaya sa isang club just downtown manhattan… Actually, a couple of blocks away from your apartment… It’s very important for you to come lalo na at andun lahat ang co-stars mo.
Mikay: Sure! I’d definitely wanna go… Where is it gonna be again?
Ryan: Well, at Cielo around 7pm. Know that place?
Mikay: Yeah, I know that… Okay, I’ll see you, then… Bye!

She just chose to wear a simple attire. Just a plain light teal above the knee dress na pinatungan niya ng black coat. With the kind of weather in New York, it’s just definitely necessary to wear a coat…
Pagkapasok niya sa loob ng club ay nakita na niya agad si Ryan. Mukhang mga nasa late twenties pa lang naman ang itsura nito and he actually looks good.
Ryan: Hello! Mikaela! Oh my! You look amazing!
Mikay: And so do you!
Nagbeso-beso sila.
Maya-maya ay diretso na siya nitong ipinakilala sa mga producers, director at sa mga kapwa niya artista. Nang mapagod na ay niyaya na siya nitong umupo sa isang maliit na mesa at nagsimulang magkwentuhan about everything that’s going on in New York… Sa tantiya niya ay may kung ilang oras na rin silang nag-uusap.
Ryan: Well, I guess that’s just about it naman… Ang daldal ko noh… Pasensya na if I talk too much. Bihira na rin kasi akong nakakapag-tagalog dito eh at wala namang mga pinoy akong nakakausap…
