Seven and Nine (FIN)

Fifty Five

Ang tagal na pala since I last updated kaya naman mahaba ang update ngayon. Tinatamad kasi akong mag wattpad lately for some unknown reason. Masyadong mahaba if full so I cut this in two. Share me your thoughts! Enjoy!

Seven's (Seoul, Korea) (Hangul)

"Damn!"

Hinagis ko ang phone ko sa gilid ng inuupuan ko ng hindi ko parin macontact si Lex. Three days na simula ng tawagan ako ni Nine at sinabi ang tungkol kay Lex na hanggang ngayon hindi ko parin alam kung ano.

Kung pwede lang na lumipad ako sa States agad nung gabing tumawag si Nine, nagpabook na ko ng ticket nung oras din na yun. Kaso hindi pwede dahil marami akong naka line up na schedule dahil in three weeks na ang comeback ko. Busy ako this week sa recording ko dahil kakatapos ko lang asikasuhin ang kay Ju-hee. This week na rin kasi ang debut nya.

"Hindi mo parin macontact?"

"Cannot be reach ang phone nya. Even his office line, cut na din. Wala ring sumasagot sa bahay nya"

"Hayaan mo, I'll try to reach him too. Magfocus ka na muna sa scheds natin. Bukas na natin ituloy ang recording. Magpahinga ka na muna after this"

"Rica, para saan ba tong urgent meeting?"

"May ipapakilala daw sa company si President. Someone important daw pero hindi ko rin sure kung sino eh"

Tumango na lang ako kay Rica bago pumikit. Papunta kasi kami sa Dream Ent dahil sa meeting na pinatawag na President sa lahat ng artists under her. Pagdating namin, dumerecho na kami sa conference room at nakita kong halos nandun na rin ang lahat ng labelmates ko.

"Good morning everyone. Thank you for giving me your precious time from your busy schedules to come over here today. It will be really quick. I just want to formally introduce someone"

Bumukas ang pinto ng malaking conference room at halos mahulog ako sa kinauupuan ko ng makita kung sino ang pumasok. Bakit na naman sya nandito??

Nagsitayuan ang lahat ng co-labels ko ng tumayo si President. We bowed our heads for greeting kahit pa hindi naman sya Korean.

"Is she a new labelmate, President?"

"I'm not really sure. Why don't you introduce yourself to them, Nine?"

"Hi everyone! My name is Nine. I'm a licensed surgeon. I'm here for a visit but--other than that, I'm in charge of handling Ju-hee's debut which will take place this week. And--Seven's comeback concert"

She glanced at me wearing her usual mysterious smile. May ilang natuwa sa sinabi nya habang ang iba naman nagtataka. Ako naman wala sa options na yun. I'm totally pissed off.

"What?! Is this some kind of a joke, President??"

"This has been settled, Seven. You don't need to worry. My daughter can handle it pretty well. I can assure you that"

"Daughter???"

Hindi lang ako ang nagulat kundi maging ang lahat ng co-labels ko na present sa room.

"Yes. She's Nine Carter. My daughter. Aren't our green eyes enough proof that we're related?"

Bakit nga ba hindi ko pinagkaabalahang pansinin na may berde din syang mata tulad ni President? Aside kasi sa mata nila, parang poles apart sila.

President is an epitome of an elegant, prim and proper lady while this Nine Carter sa kabila ng pagiging surgeon nya, she dresses like a hardcore kpop star. Her choice of clothes are always in style but not the simple street style way most of the time. Para syang laging nasa ibabaw ng concert stage ready to show everyone what she got. Her eyes are always covered with cat-eye thick eyeliners that sometimes hide her pretty green eyes pero ngayong araw hindi man thick ang eyeliners nya, she's wearing a bright red lipstick. Pano naging anak ni President to?
