Kabanata 4

I felt the satisfaction of seeing myself in the mirror wearing the dress the way I pictured it in my head for weeks! It is a cute white flowy sundress. It complimented my fair skin, my hair, and my eyes.

Tumitig ako sa salamin para pagmasdan at puriin ang kagandahang taglay.

Ang ganda ko talaga!

Ocean blue eyes, plump lips and my cheeks stained with natural blush. I'm petite, hindi sobrang kurbada pero okay na at 'di naman ako pala-gym. Masaya lang ako na kahit ang takaw ko'y flat ang tiyan ko but well, occassionally I have bilbil naman pero dahil mabilis ang metabolism ay nabilis mawala.

I have boobs. Sinapo ko 'yon. 'Di nga kalakihan pero kagaya nga ng sabi ko kagabi kay Wave, handy naman siya.

I usually wear light make-up or sometimes, a simple lip gloss and blush on tapos I'm good to go. My hair is wavy and sometimes it's curly, depende sa humidity. It has natural streaks of brown to emphasize the waves that kahit I'm not into showbiz, may mga nanliligaw na producer and directors to get me to star in a few commercials.

It's good I guess but I'd rather write behind the scenes than to be the one in the face of it like my family. We're pretty popular. My mom and my sister's into show business. My brother's a racer and kami ni Dad? Pogi at maganda lang kami.

Anyway, I like writing better. Kaya nga I'm a journalist. I work at an online website. I write about sightseeing, travel recommendations, food, and I also do vlogs which I post on my YouTube channel to my million followers.

However, I was given a chance for an opportunity to publish my work in a magazine if I get promoted but I wouldn't write about my usual this time.

To get published and be promoted, I need to write about Wave.

Kaya sinunggaban ko kaagad ang tiyansa, hoping na maging maganda ang outcome.

Well, yes, my Dad can probably pull some strings for me but I want to work my way to the top. I wanted to prove to myself I'd excel in this field. That this is for me. I don't need their help. I wanna do it on my own.

I wanted to work hard for that at kaya nga ako nandito para kay Wave. To make that dream possible.

When my phone rang, tinakbo ko ang sofa para sagutin, lumalaki ang ngiti pagkakita ng pangalan ng mommy.

Napangisi ako nang lumabas sa screen ang mukha ng maganda kong Mommy.

"Mommy!" I cheered.

"Hi, sweety!" She smiled sweetly.

"Kumusta, My? I miss you na..."

"I'm alright, Zire. You? Anything alright there?"

"Yes, My..."

My Mom, Alyx Sandejas, is still looking gorgeous at her age. She's still a model for endorsements and an actress in countless movies and soap operas.

There is no doubt my Mom is an epitome of beauty, it's timeless. Kung hindi ko lang siya ina ay hindi ko iisiping may anak na siya. She's still gorgeous as ever, she maintained her beauty through years of marriage, pati na rin ang kanyang figure ay hindi niya rin napapabayaan.

I admire her dedication. Paano ba naman at nasama siya before sa sexiest women in the Philippines?

"May nang-aaway ba sa 'yo r'yan?" aniya at umiling ako.

"Wala naman, My! Don't worry, ayos lang ako. I am not a baby anymore."

"Sure ka, ah? Sabihin mo kaagad kapag mayro'n. Take care of yourself and don't get carried away. Sa inyong lahat pa naman ikaw ang pinakasensitive so, please, take care of you health."
