A peek on their real life (looking through their eyes)

Chapter 1: Wide Awake

December 2012

Sarah’s POV

Here in my room, looking at this mirror… seeing a woman with puffy eyes… she really looks tired… tired of what’s happening in her life.

----------------------------------------------------------------

A little while ago, I accidentally eavesdropped Kuya Gerrome and the gang’s convo inside the SGL studio.

SGL staff 1: Kuya, have you seen the pictures?

Kuya Geromme: Yeah… kaloka! Actually, hindi ako naniwala sa chika nung friend ko a month ago. I didn’t entertain the thought… kasi ‘di ba? Close talaga si Maja kay Bebe… and we’ve witnessed that in ASAP and nung nag-guest siya dito.

I felt that I’m really breathing hard at that moment. A stirring pain stroked inside my chest.

SGL staff 2: Well, ‘pag jowa na ang usapan… walang kaibi-kaibigan, walang pami-pamilya! Haha! Way to go Maja!

SGL staff 1: (LOL) At least nakatikim tayo ng libre ni Ge nung time na ok pa sila ni Bebe, nung pa-goodie-goodie pa siya! ‘Davah?

SGL staff 2: Makasariling bakla! Hindi mo man lang inisip si Bebe! Che!

SGL staff 1: Of course I feel for bebe… but what can we do? At least nagkaalaman na ka-eklavuhan lang pala yang si Ge noh?

SGL staff 2: May point! So, mag-jowa na talaga siguro si Ge at Maja nu? Nakalingkis na yung kamay sa bewang eh! Ano sa tingin mo!?

SGL staff 1: Ay hindi! They’re just friends! Kaloka… tanungin pa ba?

Kuya Geromme: Sssshhh! Baka marinig kayo ni Bebe, I’m actually thinking how to spill the beans to her. Arrghhh! Nakakaloka ang mga ganap! Tara na, back to work!

I don’t know where I got the strength to move my feet and return to the dressing room.

I sat on the chair and few minutes after, I heard the sound of the hair blower, chitchat around the dressing room, my make-up artist and hair stylist started to groom me for the show… with me sitting there, still with my poker face on.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Looking at the mirror, that woman is laughing at herself while wiping the tears that already dried in her face.

9 months...

I thought I was really living a life.

9 months in cloud 9

9 months of bliss

But now I’m not that sure, if it’s all real.

Yeah, I’m the superstar, the gullible superstar (bitter smile ON).

But maybe…

Just maybe…

He really did loved me...

Not just strong enough for someone like me.

Now I’m starting to question, is the man that I need, really do exist?

Maybe yes, maybe no.

A superstar like me needs a super human, a super hero.

Calling out Edward, Superman, Iron Man…

Crazy thoughts before I call it a night.
