I FELL IN LOVE WITH MY CO-ACTOR

CHAPTER 3 - Tagaytay

I woke up at 5 am dahil maaga rin ang call time namin sa taping ngayon. I took a bath and ate a heavy breakfast because we'll be shooting for the whole day. It will surely be exhausting kaya kailangan kong magbaon ng energy.

I messaged Angel and Frances to make sure na papasok sila ngayon. Ayoko na ulit makita 'yung nosy make-up artists last time at baka makagawa ako ng eksena at magkaroon pa ako ng scandal.

After confirming their presence, I got my car keys and drove my way to the place. Sa Tagaytay ang setting namin ngayon kaya kailangan ay maaga talaga ako dahil malayo ang Taguig sa Tagaytay.

Upon arriving, sinalubong kaagad ako ni Tita B- my manager at may dala siyang oversized jacket na ipinasuot sa akin.

"I brought my jacket Tita B."

"Wear that, and wear this as well." She lightly tapped my face. "Just to make sure na hindi ka lalagnatin sa lamig, okay?" She smiled at me kaya sinunod ko na lang ang sinabi niya.

Tita B or Tita Brenda has been my manager ever since I started entering showbiz. I'm already in the industry for 8 years straight and not once na ipinaramdam niya sa akin na mag-isa ako sa career na 'to. She's taking care of me not just as an artist but also as her daughter and clearly, she's the best among the rest. Period.

"Let's go to your hotel suite first. Na-move ang taping ng 10 am because of too much fog. Pahupain daw muna natin sabi ni Direk." I nodded and followed her to the hotel.

Hindi pa gano'n katao dahil sobrang aga pa pero may mangilan-ngilan na napapatingin sa amin ni Tita B dahil hindi naman ako nakasuot ng disguise. Thankfully, none of them were wild today. Though may iba lang na kumuha ng patagong pictures but it was fine.

"Make yourself comfortable." Nakarating na kami sa isang VIP suite ng hotel at binigay niya na rin sa 'kin 'yung card key ko. "Have you had your breakfast?" She asked.

"Yes, bago ako umalis."

"Good. Stay here or roam around if you want, may mga aasikasuhin lang ako, okay?" I nodded. Pero imbes na umalis siya ay nanatili lang siyang nakatitig sa 'kin.

"What?" I jested. Pinanliitan niya ako ng mata.

"Look, I'll behave Tita B, alright?" I assured her.

"Sure you'll behave," She made the 'I'm watching you' gesture with her hand before leaving. I shook my head.

Malaki na ako pero parang bata pa rin ako kung ituring ni Tita B. I can't blame her though, I can be troublesome at times.

Nilibot ko ang kabuuan ng suite. It's nice in here and they chose the one where you can see the view of the Taal volcano. Pumunta ako sa veranda and I indulged myself in the beautiful horizon. Mas maganda sana ang view kung wala masyadong fog but I'm sure na huhupa rin 'yon maya-maya.

Pumasok na ako sa loob dahil lumalamig na rin and I also turned on the heater. Doble na 'yung jacket ko pero tagos pa rin sa buto ang lamig. I was about to call for room service para magpadala ng hot coffee nang mag-ring ang phone ko. It's Angel.
