Rj's POV

"Mauna na kami Rj ha, baka wala na kaming masakyang jeep eh." sabi ng Secretary ng USC sakin.

Tumango lang ako sa kanila nung palabas na sila ng pinto.

Sigh.

Promise, uuwi ako ng maaga. Tutal 6:30pm pa naman, kaya madami pa ako'ng oras para mag-analyze ng mga papers na isusubmit sa President ng School next week.

Bakit ba kasi maraming events at arte to'ng Western High? Hindi ko tuloy maiwan-iwan to kasi ako pa rin yung in-charge sa pagpirma at pagforward ng mga documents.

Bumalik na ako sa pag-scan ng mga gabundok na papel sa harapan ko.

Hi nga pala sa mga bumabasa nito, first POV ko to di ba? Sa mga hindi nakakakilala sakin, my name is Raymund Joeffrey, RJ nalang para shortcut, so ang purpose ko ngayon kung bakit sinulat ni Otor to'ng POV na to eh kasi gusto niyang i-explain ang buhay ko, este, ang buhay ng pamilya ko.

So let's break this down:

My Mother is a daughter of my American-Australian grandmother and my Japanese-American grandfather. Si Lilac Queenrie Johnson-Fordrester.

My Father is a son of my Korean grandmother and my Filipino grandfather. Si Jack Roy Park-Fordrester.

And there we go, my brother and I came from a family tree of various races, hindi namin alam kung saan namin ilalabel ang mga sarili namin, pero that's not really important to us anyway.

My mother is a successful actress and musician in her time, she gathered different awards and had many world tours, at ngayon, pagod na siyang magperform at ayaw na niyang maging part sa television, so she decided to create a business and later on became a CEO of her own company.

My father is a song-writer, musician, and famous director. He directed various movies mapa-Pilipinas o International man. So he once directed a movie where he met my mother, ayaw ko ng ikwento yung love story nila, mahaba kasi, baka abutin tayo ng 10 years. At ayun, they had 2 children, ako at si Dominic. Unlike my mother, si Papa never stopped playing and making music. Hindi din siya huminto sa pagdidirect ng mga movies until now, which is good, I think.

At dahil sa work nilang dalawa, kadalasan, kaming dalawa nalang ng kapatid ko sa bahay, of course, with our maids and butlers.

If you are confused, si Mama always travel to America dahil doon talaga ang Main company nila, na tinutulungan din ni Papa. And minsan naman, pumupunta naman si Papa sa ibang bansa para sa shooting nila or whatever na related sa trabaho niya.

So it's me and my brother.

My Brother, is a sweet, gentle marshmallow, when he was in his child years. Pero nung tumuntong na siya sa high-school ay doon na siya biglang nagbago, I mean not entirely. Kasi noon, ako at siya nalang sa bahay ang magkasama, it's only the two of us, pero noong nag-2nd year high-school siya ay iniwan na niya ako sa mala-tahimik naming bahay.

Nagviral kasi siya noong may paparty sa kakilala ni Papa when someone asked him to sing. Then may nagvideo naman sa kaniya, marami ang namangha, then he became famous overnight.

Then the next thing I knew, he signed a contract sa isang Talent Industry, nagkaproblema, then they found the same industry nila Mama at Papa noong wala pa kami sa mundo.

He seldom goes home, at minsan hindi na sa isang taon, which is very heartbreaking for me.

Kasama niya din yung tropa niyang sina Demi, Vincent at JohnPaul sa same industry. They became a rising music band and later became the World's Famous International Teen-Band. They are high-paid, pero I don't think it is a very big deal to them.
