Well,the meeting with the big bosses went smooth. I thought I'm going to have a problem pero buti na lang at napakiusapan ko silang lahat at naintidihan nila ang gusto kong mangyari. Kami pa lang ni Marky ang may alam na today will be my last day in Singapore. 

Tutuparin ko na ang pangako ko kay Andrew na uuwi kami ni Raphy sa Pilipinas para doon na tumira at para makasama siya. But Andrew didn't know that I'll be flying to the Philippines tomorrow morning. He told me he will have a business trip tomorrow kaya naman ay naisipan kong i-surprise na lang siya.

I am not going to stop working on the projects that I have contracts with pero ang napagkasunduan namin ay tatapusin ko lahat ng iyon until such time where my contract expires by itself. Later this year will all of them expire kaya ilang months na lang at tuluyan ko ng iiwan lahat ng trabaho ko rito sa Singapore as a model. But it doesn't mean I am closing my doors to any opportunities that may knock when I get back to the Philippines.

I have received invites and proposals from the Philippines even before pa pero dahil sa ayokong makita ako ni Andrew ay tinanggihan ko iyon. Maging ang pakikipag-meeting sana ng kapatid niyang si Audrey sa akin 3 years ago sana ay tinanggihan ko. She even asked me if I could be their magazines first cover but I declined the offer dahil ayokong makagulo pa kay Andrew noon.

But now,I don't know what will happen kasi baka tanggapin ko ang pagmo-model sa kumpanya ni Audrey. I heard from Marky that she's been very persistent in asking if I could be in one of her magazine issue. There's a big possibility that I might accept it this time. Pag hindi conflict sa iba ko pang commitments why not try di ba? 

At isa pa,I need to work kahit pa ilang beses nang sinabi ni Andrew na no need na akong magtrabaho pag andito na ako sa Pilipinas dahil he will provide everything for me and for Raphy. 

I don't want him to do that. I don't want to be a burden for him kahit pa alam kong this time he can afford my needs. Ayokong iasa lahat sa kanya. If ever will be living together,gusto kong may maiambag rin ako. But I like what I see in him. He is different than what he was before. I know that his life finally knew got direction and he realized that not all things can be taken for granted.

And one more reason why I want to have a job when I return to the Philippines is that I want to provide on my own for my mother. Kahit pa hanggang ngayon ay okay pa din ang business niya,I still want to help her kasi alam kong nabawasan na yung savings niya na naipon niya because of Jaypee's operation 3 years ago. Jaypee had to undergo a major operation related to his pancreatic disease. Buti na lang naagapan at hindi na ito lumala pa. The costs was not that cheap pero ang mahalaga ay okay na siya ngayon and right now he is working in a mall as a maintenance engineer. 

Parang kailan lang ay pinapag-aral ko pa noon si Jaypee,ngayon ay nakikita kong unti-unti na niyang natutupad ang mga pangarap niya. Mama also told me that he's helping her out which makes me very proud and happy at the same time. Para ko na rin kasing kapatid ang batang iyon.

Siguro nga,wala na akong mahihiling pa sa ngayon kundi ang i-enjoy lahat ng mga nangyayari sa buhay ko. It felt like everything fall into place already.

Napagbuntong-hininga ako saka kinuha ang phone ko sa bag.  I am going to call Audrey. I know for sure magugulat yun dahil ngayon lang ako tatawag kahit pa matagal na nitong binigay ang contact number niya sa akin.

I haven't got the chance to get to know Audrey talaga dahil sa mga nangyari pero alam kong I can trust her and that we can be close. Kahit kinikwentuhan lang ako noon ni Andrew about sa kapatid niya,alam kong mabait si Audrey. 

Nagsimula na akong i-dial ang phone number niya. The call went through and naghihintay na lang ako na sasagutin niya ito sa kabilang linya. 

Two rings and then I heard her voice on the line.
