[ A Taglish Story ]
May's been in love with her brother's bestfriend since she was 16 but he never saw once gave her a sign that he returns her feelings.
Her brother and the love of her life moved away to pursue their careers as actors and singers...
These past few weeks have been really hectic. Hindi kami masyado nakakapagkita kita ni Edward. Madami kasi siyang shoot and press-con sa upcoming movie niya at ako naman napakabusy ko sa modelling and singing career ko tapos next week sasabak na ako sa acting.
Napakabilis ng mga pangyayari and eto di ko din akalain na naachieve ko na isa isa ang mga dreams ko. Nanominate ako bilang "New Artist of the Year" and "Most Influential Female Artist" at ngayon pa-attend na ako sa awards night.
Sasamahan sana ako ni Edward kaso kailangan niya pumunta sa press-con niya sa Nevada. Kakaalis niya lang kaninang umaga kaya ayun hinatid ko siya.
Naghahanda na ako para sa awards night, thank to my stylist and make up artist lagi stunning ang look ko pero syempre di ko ikakaila na madami pang mas maganda sakin doon bilang baguhan palang ako sa industriya at sobrang nirerespeto ko talaga sila.
Inayusan na ako ni Em, and aking make up artist at inihanda na ni Rain ang aking gown bilang 2 hours nalang ay kailangan ko ng pumunta don. Wala namang problema dahil hindi ako malelate kasi nagstay na ako sa hotel na malapit. Mabilis akong naayusan at isang oras pa lamang ang dumaan ay eto ready na ako sumabak sa first awards night ko.
Pagtingin ko sa salamin ay gulat na gulat ako sa kinalabasan ng aking hitsura.

Napakaganda nung gown na inihanda nila sakin. I was always a fan of white gowns pero grabe lang to.
"Ms. Em and Sir Rain, maraming salamat talaga sa pag-effort ng pagayps niyo sakin. sobrang nakakatuwa. Kahit matalo ako sa award night sure win na ako kasi supt ko palang to winner na ako"
"May naman grabe ka. You're flattering us. I'm sure you'll win a lot tonight. Diba nga may mga ibang awards kapa na nominate ka. Just go there and slay that runway"
Niyakap ko sila ng mahigpit at sinimulan ko na ang pagpunta sa award night. Pagpasok ko palang ay napakadami ng flash ng camera buti nalang nasanay ako. Kabang kaba ako pero ayun nilakasan ko ang loob ko at nagpopose ako sa camera. Feel ko naman it went well. sumagot lang ako ng mga interview at dumerecho na ako sa upuan ko. May mga binati din akong mga artista along the way yung iba kilala ko lang sa pangalan pero binati ko na din.
Pagupo ko sa pwesto ko ay naghi ako sa mga fellow artists ko. Katabi ko si Noah Centenio and Nick Bateman. Same category kasi kami na model slash artist pero ako nilakasan ko lang talaga ang loob ko na magdive sa career ng pagkanta. Flawless naman ng conversation naming tatlo.
"So, I heard you're nominated in a lot of awards tonight, ROOKIE" Nick said.
"Yeah, I'm actually nervous but if I don't win any awards that's perfectly fine."
"You'll surely win something tonight. Maybe the head turned award. Didn't you notice how everyone's been looking at you ever since you walked in." Noah said.
Conversation betweeen us is very light and comforting. I learned that Noah is on his 3rd year as an artist and Nick has been a model for 5 years now. They also said that they will surely bump into me soon as their managers have been very interested in working with me and I was flattered and honoured at the same time.
"You're far popular than you think so, May" Noah said.
"Maybe, Maybe not. I'm just working my ass off to achieve my dreams. Maybe that's my focus now."
Nagstart na ng award night at di ko talaga inexpect ng tuloy tuloy ang pagtawag sakin sa mga awards.
"Female Artist of the year", "Most Influential Female Artist", "New artist of the Year", "Head Turned of the Night"", "Best Dressed Female Category", "Face of the Year". Nakailang beses akong cinongratulate ng mga tao at super overwhelemed ako sa mga nangyayare.
Nang paalis na ako sa upuan ko ay hirap na hirap ako dalahin ang mga awards ko kaya naman tinulungan ako ni Noah. "Told you, you'll win lots"
"T'was really nice meeting you Noah, hope to see more of you" and sincere yun kasi siguro siya yung isa sa nicest people na nakilala ko sa showbiz sobrang gaang niya kausap talaga I can't wait t let him meet Edward for sure magkakasundo sila.
Edward's POV
I heard that May won a lot of awards tonight I am so excited to talk to her. I'm already resting at my hotel and just in time tumawag si May.
"How's my favorite girl? I heard hinakot mo daw ang awards ah"
"Grabe naman sa hinakot"
"Either way i'm proud of you babe."
Huminto siya ng sandali di ko alam bakit.
"Truuuuuut. Proud boyfie ka ba?"
Now, its my turn to halt. Boyfie. Boyfriend. Teka lang. Labels? Di ako ready diyan. Kaya naman chinange topic ko. Alam ko masasaktan siya. Pero May I cant give you that now.
"Look, May I gotto go. Maaga pala ako tomorrow. Im so proud of you tho. I cant wait to see you when I get back! I love you!"
