Midnights with Pierce Psyche Esquivel

Chapter 1

Kaagad akong napabangon at naligo. I have a fan meeting today, and I'm gonna be late if I don't move fast. 

Nawala ang gutom na nararamdaman ko habang naghahanda. I wore my white shirt and maong pants and paired it with my black leather jacket hurriedly. Palabas palang ako ng kwarto ay tumatawag na si Matilda.

Pinatay ko rin ito kaagad dahil alam kung papagalitan niya lang ulit ako. I heard my phone buzzing and I am sure she is cursing me now.

I opened my door and Kuya Sebastian was already waiting for me outside, wala na ang dalawa. I looked at my phone and it was almost seven, their duty ends at seven in the morning.

"Kuya, let's go." I was in a hurry, almost running and Kuya Sebastian tailed me right away.

Naghihintay na sa baba si Kuya Marlo at kaagad akong sumakay. I heard my phone buzzing again and saw Matilda calling. I didn’t have a choice but to answer it this time.

"We are near." I lied of course and motioned Kuya Marlo to get faster. 

"Siguraduhin mo." Then she ended the call.

Napalunok naman ako ng malalim at muling pinabilis ang pagpapatakbo ng sasakyan. Well, I don't really care if she scolds me or what, but this is a fan meeting and I can't let it slip. I am a dedicated artist to my fans.

We stopped in front of the building and I almost ran towards the elevator. Pero kabubukas palang nito ay bumungad na sa akin si Matilda kasama ang team.

I gave her a smile while she looked at me the same, a piece of disgusting shit.

"On time. Let's go. Nandiyan na sasakyan natin." Her eyes, almost rolling at me again. 

Kaagad akong sumunod, maging si Kuya Sebastian. Matilda won't allow me anymore to have my own car service for these kinds of events anymore because she doesn't trust me, so the staff and I are in the same van. I had detours before and she doesn't like those detours so. 

We are going to a mall show and I'm gonna have a private fan meeting right after. Maghapon na iyon na schedule ko at sa mall lahat gaganapin. 

"How was your security last night?"

Napatingin ako sa kanya, she is busy labelling my schedules on her planner. 

"Fine." I simply answered and looked outside again.

"How was Liberty?" She asked next.

She is fishing information isn't she? She's really thinking that I will screw my own security.

"Fine too." And I am telling the truth.

"You didn't do anything weird to her?" 

I raised my brows at her even though she's not looking at me. 

"Nothing. She's not even my type, she is too serious." 

Napatingin at naningkit ang mga mata niya sa akin at nagkibit balikat sa huli. Our ride was smooth and we arrived at the mall around 8:30. The event will start in one hour and so I still have the time to  prepare.

We are situated in a vacant room and I’m gonna be styled for only a few minutes. I am too good looking already.

My hairstylist let my hair stay the same and made me wear some accessories like my small diamond earring. I also opted to wear black boots instead of my converse and I am good to go.

I stayed in the room and practice with my guitar for the remaining time.

“Sir Pierce, get ready na daw po.” Greta came in looking so tired and sweaty. Isa rin siya sa mga matagal na nagtatrabaho sa akin, she is basically Matilda’s assistant.
