"Direk, kaya pala galit si Sir Arkin sakin dahil ex ka po pala niya."

I almost choked on my coffee when I heard what Andrew just said. Yeah, I expected this! Kalat na ulit pangalan namin sa Social Media. Hay nako, ewan ko ba. This is the industry we entered. Sanayan na lang. Kahit hindi mo gusto, wala ka namang magagawa.

"Hala, okay ka lang po ba, direk?" Andrew offered me a tissue.

"Yeah, I'm fine." I wiped my mouth. "Where did you get the information?" I asked, sinisigurado ko lang din.

"Sa Twitter." He answered.

After the talk with the artists, lumabas naman na sila and I proceed with my next meeting with the behind-the-scenes team.

"Direk, how's the script?" Makie suddenly asked. "Here's our screen writer, Dane. Come here! I know, you know each other!" 

"Oh yeah, we know each other. Bakit ngayon lang kita nakita dito sa meeting?" I tapped my pen on the table. Wow, grabe! Iba talaga ang connections kapag sa ganitong industry ka pumasok.

"Yeah, definitely! I'm sorry if I didn't help with revising the script. I went to some places where-in pwedeng magshooting for the movie and yeah, may nadagdag ka ba sa script or bawas?" Dane asked after he sat down in front of me.

"Oh, yeah. I revised it. May dinagdag and bawas. I'm so proud of you. Ang ganda ng script! Ang ganda ng flow, grabe. Hindi ako nahirapan!" I waved my brows and smiled. 

"Grabe! Complimented by a famous Director! Grabe naman 'yon!" Dane chuckled.

"Ano ka ba!" I laughed a bit. "Anyways, we need to talk about the sounds especially the sound effects. Where are the sound department team?" I asked.

"Here's Kit." I looked at Kit who's sitting beside Dane.

"Yes, Direk. Nga pala, sila Arkin, nagkaruon lang ng problem pero papunta na rin kasi sila. Hindi ko alam pero sana hindi sila pagkaguluhan." Kit shook his head.

"Ang hirap naman ng Sound Designer natin! Sikat!" Grey chuckled. "Si Arkin ba kasama sila Sean?" 

"Yeah. I received a message 5 mins ago, they're buying coffee at Tim Horton's. Ewan ko, baka nadumog sila. Malaki na sila, kaya na nila 'yan." Kit laughed a bit.

"So, yeah. Arkin is going to be our Sound Director, is that okay with you, guys?" Makie asked while typing something on his laptop, maybe finalizing things.

"Of course! The best man!" Kit chuckled. He was very confident with Aj. My gosh! Even me naman, I'm so confident with him and I'm really proud. 

"Sir, Direk, we're very sorry, we're late." It was Aj.
