"Ms. Cindy, Mr. Emmanuel, this is Katie Megan Romero. The Newbreed Theater Actress of this generation." Enrique introduced me and then I shaked with their hands one by one.
"Have a seat Ms. Romero." Mr. Emmanuel said.
"Thanks Sir." I responded.
"Ms. Cindy is the artist handler and Mr. Emmanuel will be your manager." Enrique said.
"I am super excited to be handled by them." I said as Mr. Emmanuel and Ms. Cindy are slowly nodding their heads.
"You're adorable." Mr. Emmanuel said.
"Thank you Sir." I responded immediately.
"I think you will really fit with Yanna Lanelle, we are going to have a small online show for you." I know Yanna Lanelle very much, she's my childhood friend and I hope she still knows me.
"She's my childhood friend Mr. Emmanuel." I said.
"Oh, really?" He asked.
"Yah! But I don't know if she still knows me, she became very famous already." I said then a familiar voice just get in.
"Hi Sir Emman, my assistant told me that you're looking for me, what is it?" She gladly asked and sat in front of me.
"Do you know her?" Mr. Emmanuel point his fingers on me.
"No, who is she?" She calmly asked and Mr. Emmanuel told me to introduce my self.
"I'm Kata Romero." I said because when we were a kid, she used to call me Kata.
"Oh! I'm so sorry Miss but I don't know you. Sorry." When she was about to leave, Ms. Cindy told her to sit.
"You used to call me Kata when we were kids." I said but she seems like don't remember everything.
"But now I have my own name in the industry Yanna, I'm Katie Romero." I gave my hands, gladly she hold it too.
"What are we going to do here Sir?" Yanna asked our manager.
"We're planning to have a talk show for the two of you, and I hope that you are okay with that Yanna?" She asked Yanna.
"Yeah, it's okay. Don't worry Sir. I will be very professional in this work." Yanna answered confidently. Why does she sounds like it? Is there something wrong at me?
"Thank you Yanna, you may now leave. Were going to tell you when we will shoot the first episode." Yanna smiled and leave the office. She's so elegant, the way she walk and speak. Oh my god!
"What are you thinking of Yanna?" Ms. Cindy asked me.
"Nothing Ma'am." I answered immediately.
"No, I know and we know that there is. So please tell us. It's okay." She said.
"She's so intimidating, but I hope that her attitude are still the same when were kids." I said.
"It's true that she's so intimidating right now. She's not like that before and maybe she just have problems, that's why we should reached out to her." Ms. Cindy said.
Maybe Yanna needs a friend to understand her? Well, I'm here.
"Yes, we need to begin the talk show as early as we can. Yanna are always alone at her house, she need to a person to talk to." Mr. Emmanuel said.
"I'm also her friend, what can I do for her? Can I help too?" Enrique asked.
"Yeah. Just simply talking to her, it will help a lot." Ms. Cindy said.
"Oh wait! You two are couple right?" Mr. Emmanuel asked.
"Yes sir, why?" Enrique asked, I smiled.
"Nothing." Mr. Emmanuel said before leaving.
"You're so sweet." Ms. Cindy said too before leaving.
"They like you babe." Enrique said but then I stopped him.
"Yaaahh! Thank you for bringing me here Babe." I said.
"You're play will be next week right? Are you nervous?" Quen asked.
"I'm not, but I'm nervous on the few articles now, they said that I'm two timer." I said.
"You are not two timer Katie haha, Nicko will do everything just to clean this mess, he will do that, don't worry that much." He said.
"Yeah! We should meet him today, and Gabby too." I said.
"Gabby is not in Manila right? She have out of town show, I saw the poster last night." He said, I'm shocked, Gabrielle didn't tell me.
"Really? She didn't tell me. We must go home now." I said out of frustration.
"Why? You say we're going to Nicko." He said.
"No! I don't want to see his ugly face!" I shouted.
"Yie, you like him, isn't it?" He asked.
"Enriiiiqueeee!" I shouted and then he calmed me.
"I'm going home alone! Leave me alone!" I said before getting inside my car.
"Katie... Don't leave me here." He said but then I closed the door and start driving.
"Hi Dad, where are they?" I asked my Daddy because my Kuya and my Mom are not around.
"They said they're buying supplies, you don't have supplies here anymore." Daddy said.
"Okay Dad, btw Dad, where's my little Kiko?" I asked him again cause I don't see Kiko playing around. What happened to my little cute poodle?
"He's in the bathroom baby, he bite my phone charger so I put him there." Daddy angrily said and then I ran inside the bathroom.
"Kiko.... Kiko.... Mommy is here." I said as I get him through the tiles, he looks so afraid.
"Don't worry, mommy is here already, they will not hurt you anymore." I said as we walk towards my room, he's so cold.
"Arf! Arf!" Kiko barked at Daddy.
"Hey! What's your problem?" Daddy shouted.
"Dad stop please, he's afraid." I said then Mom and Kuya already arrived.
"Oh Katie, you're here." Kuya said and then he get Kiko.
"Why are you sad little one?" Kuya asked Kiko.
"Dad beat him." I said.
"Daddy? Why? Kiko is very easy to love." Kuya pleaded.
"Because he bit my charger." Daddy explained.
"Okay. I'll buy charger, just don't bit my and Katie's little one." Kuya said.
"I will bring him to Canada." Mom said.
"No! It can't be! I don't want to see that dog! It's an animal! I'm not animal friendly." Daddy shouted and get inside his room.
"It's okay Katie, he's just having a bad mood." Mommy said.
"Wait a minute, I'm just going to buy charger outside." I said.
"No baby, I have a spare charger there, just rest. I know you are tired. Leave Kiko here. I will take care of him." Mommy said so I smiled and then get in my room.
27 missed calls from Enrique...
"Hey, why the hell did you call? Is there something happened to you?" I asked.
"Nothing. I just wanna make sure if you got home already." He said.
"Shut your mouth up!" I shouted.
"Okay fine. Sorry." He said and then I turned off the call.
"Kiko cutie." I said then carried him, Kiko have been my stress reliever this past few days.
"Arf!" His small barks really made me love him so much, he's so easy to love. I will cry if Kiko would be gone.
"Are you proud with Mommy? I have a new talent managers and a new online show." I asked him and he barked.
Does it mean yes cutie?
"Katie..." I opened the door of my room when I heard a familiar voice. He's here again."What do you need?" I asked annoyed as I opened my bedroom door."Let's talk. Take this, it's my peace offering to you." He showed me a box of cake that he bought maybe on the bake shop downstairs."We don't have anything to talk about. Go home." I said and when I was about to close the door, he suddenly cried."What happened to you?" I asked."Forgive me, please." He said and give me an amen sign."Give me some reasons to forgive you Enrique." I said.My family are not here because they're buying tickets, me too, I'm going to leave the condo later at night for tomorrow is the big day."I will be very good to you this coming days and I promise I will never make a reason for you to be mad. I am sorry." He said."Okay. Then better be good." I said then I finally go out of my room, I couldn't eat the cake for now because it's too sweet.
"Katie. Here is our breakfast then we're going to the hall to have a rehearsals." Gabrielle informed me while she was holding the tray of my breakfast, I was already awake for over 2 hours but I'm nervous for the play later."Are you nervous?" She asked and I just nodded. What if in the middle of the play my voice didn't make the sound right?"Yes. Super." I answered."That's exactly what I feel when it was my first time doing a musical, it's okay to feel that Katie, it's okay, but when you are on stage, just enjoy because when youre enjoying what do you do, everything will follow." She said before leaving me.But before I eat, I checked my phone and there was a message from Mommy, Nicko and Enrique.First one is from Nicko. 'Hi Katie, I hope you are awake, I just want to wish luck for you late.' Hmmm... Nothing serious.Second one is from Enrique. 'Hi Babe, don't forget to eat your breakfast, when do you need something just knock at the doo
"Ms. Katie, this is your set of clothes for the shoot later." My staff said and left the clothes on the cabinet.I don't have an assistant before but Mr. Emmanuel and Ms. Cindy told me to find someone who can assist me in tapings."Thank you Arielle." I said then she smiled before leaving, I'm waiting for my make-up artist right now and I am too early. I camed from the airport cause my family already come back to Canada this morning, I'm left again."Hi Katie." My eyes get widened because of the voice that I heard."Yanna? Why? Is there something wrong? " I asked her because out of nowhere she came inside my dressing room."Nothing Kate, I just want to come over here." She said and sat beside me."Yanna, do you still remember our bondings when we ere kids?" I asked her, maybe she could remember me, I miss Yanna Lanelle so much."Oum, I'm sorry Katie but no, I couldn't remember anything about us anymore." She said that makes me sad."I understand." I deeply si
"Hi Gabrielle." I immediately greeted my best friend when I saw her, she's always like this, waiting for me on the door or on the gate."Katie, glad you're already here. Let's go." She said and lead me towards our table, we only have 3 circle table inside, the room was filled by 24 people, 6 main casts, 8 extras, 3 producers, 5 writers and 2 directors and other restaurant staffs."Have a seat Katie." Nicko offered me a chair and then I just smiled, I still get his offer."How are you? It's been a while since we talked." He said."I'm fine. I'm already fine even without you." I said and when I was about to leave he pulled my arms back into the chair."Why are you so mad at me Katie? You are the one who admitted it right? I was here to support you in that but what did you do? You left your talent agency, you left our company." He said."I left because my manager told me to admit but when I was about to hold it back, she said that it can no longer be back!
"Yanna! Katie! Proceed to the front." Mr. Emmanuel said and then Yanna and I, immediately proceeded at the front of the boat."A little bit clingy to Katie, Yanna please, for publicity." Ms. Cindy said and then gave Yanna the selfie stick and we took some photos."Are we shooting the vlog today? Not yet right?" Yanna said."Yeah we're not yet shooting it today but can't you see your fans? They're around and there are a lot of media here, some artist fron different management are also here." Ms. Cindy said but then I go to my safe place, they will not say anything when I am with Enrique."Babe, can I get a kiss?" I loudly asked but my tone is sweet."I didn't expect to be become that sweet." He said while silently laughing and kissed me on my forehead."So sweet! Oh my gosh! Can't you feel it guys? The ants are biting us!" My stylist said and we just laughed, I slowly leaned into Enrique's chest."Are you tired?" He asked."No."
When we finally get out of the cave, I was so happy. We can finally go home. And sleep but before we sleep Yanna suggested to have a Truth or Dare game, it was spin the bottle."We're going to play spin the lucky bottle, and if who are the bottle tip pointing into will answer the question, okay?" Yanna explained and she immediately spinned the bottle."Okay Alexandria, truth or dare?" Yanna asked, I know that this girl have a plans to Ate Alexandria"Truth." Alexandria said."Okay, did you feel angry with Katie earlier?" Yanna asked and sarcastically laugh a little."Dare, instead." Alexandria said."Okay, could you kiss Enrique and slapped the girl you most hate in this circle." Alexandria immediately stand up and kiss Quen on his cheeks.I was so nervous because for all I is she was mad at me, maybe she's going to slapped me, but that thinking stopped when she came near to Yanna and slapped her 180°."I thought it was Kat
"Katie." I looked at my back again because I just noticed that there is someone calling for my name again."Why?" I asked him."Before we left Palawan, can I tell something to you today? Promise me that after this our treatment for each other will be the same again, okay?" He said so I just nodded."Okay." I said."I l-like y-you." He said and he immediately looked a way, seems like a shy boy."W-what?" I asked him back, even though I already feel it few days ago, I was still shock."I like you." He said again."Thank you?" I don't know what to say, is it good for me to say thank you to him for liking me? I think yes."Thank you?" He asked."Yes. Thank you for liking me." I said then I finally stood on the airplane, we are finally coming back into Manila. I totally miss my Little Kiko."Katie. Here is for you." I look at my back because Yanna called me."What's that?" I asked her."A fancy necklace f
"Katie, come! Let's drink some." My friend from Canada who just came here in the Philippines offered me a glass of tequila."Oh I'm sorry Gelli but I'm still not drinking liquor, that was bad for the health." I said and she laughed. What was funny in what I actually say? Is it bad to care for my health? For our health?"Katie, you are too childish. Here. Try it." She gave me that already so I don't have a choice. They might said that I'm a Kill Joy person."Why does it tastes like this? It's hot! It doesn't taste well!" I said and she gave me a lemon."It's Tequila, and this one is Black Label." Gelli said."Why does many people like liquor even if it doesn't taste so well?" I asked her and she laughed, until a man came at me."Katie." That was a familiar voice."Why are here? Are you stalking me? Don't stalk me anymore! I am not interested on you." I shout and everyone on the party screams."Just find another women Nickanor." The other guy sa
"Ms. Katie, what can you say about the rumors about you, Enrique, and Alexandria? It says there that you are the real girlfriend of Mr. Salazar."I almost froze when the media started asking me, where did they get those again? I and Enrique are not hanging out together in one place anymore, how come?Hotseat. Again."Where did you get all of this news?" I asked back, thinking if I will answer them the right answer."One person from our team have recorded you, you actually say there..." she paused for a while before playing that damn recording."Why does it seems that I am the villain on Alex and Enrique's team up? They're not even together. Why me? I am not the person to blame here and if we're gonna blame a person, it's Alex. She ruined my relationship with Enrique for that fucking publicity!"WHAT THE F*CK? IT'S REALLY MY VOICE! WHO THE HELL RECORDED THAT? I KNOW THAT IT WASN'T NICKO."Oum... I guess it's just edited... Because I don't know where
"Hi, Katie." I look at my back because some bitches called my name. They're three, one of them is Alex"Oh, hello! Are they your friends?" I asked her. I can control my mouth but cannot control my facial expressions."Yes, this one is Belle and this one is Daphne." She paused for a while."Hi Katie, it's so nice to meet you." The 2 girls said and I just smiled, after a few minutes they left, so I got into the rehearsal hall."Hey, Katie!" I saw Enrique standing in front of me."Oh hi," I just smiled lightly and then get a microphone."When did your love for me starts to fade away...All the love you've shown me, are they all just lies?Why didn't you tell me that there is someone else?It's me that you needed but not the whom you love..."I just sang it in a cappella and Enrique noticed it."Is that your song in the Knockout rounds? Who are you competing with?" He asked."It's a new song that I found on YouTube and the lyri
"Katie!" A loud voice enter my system before I felt that I fall on the ground, but the ground is soft, my body fall also on a body."N-Nicko?" I was slowly finding my self because of the noise that enter my system few minutes ago."If you have problems solve it on your own. DO.NOT.MAKE.ME.A.CRIMINAL!" The man on the van said and left us on the street."What's wrong, Katie?" He asked and helped me to stand up."Why does it seems that I am the villain on Alex and Enrique's team up? They're not even together. Why me? I am not the person to blame here and if we're gonna blame a person, it's Alex. She ruined my relationship with Enrique for that fucking publicity!""Kate... Let's just go... There are a lot of people here." He gave me a mask and take me on his car."Why are you here? Are you following me?" I asked while he was starting his car."I know this cases on the showbiz people Katie, there are a lot of Actor and Actresses experiencing this and so
"Good Morning, Katie and Alex!" Our manager greeted us with a whole smile, it's awkward."Good Morning, Sir!" We also greeted him back, I want to scream here! I am not comfortable yet!"I know what's going on with the two of you right now, so let's call Enrique. Quen, come in." I saw my ex boyfriend came out of the small room inside Sir Emmanuel's office."Kate... Alex... Sir Emmanuel." His baritone voice filled the room, he sat beside me. I wanted to shout!"Talk to them Enrique." Sir Emmanuel said."Sir Emmanuel, I thought you are only talking to me and Alex. This was not included in the memo that I received few days ago." I said."No, no Katie. I didn't say everything on the memo because I know that you will never come if I told you that Enrique will be here, right? But anyways, talk to each other first because the press are going to arrived in a few minutes. I'll be back." He said.Again, Mr. Emmanuel left me with no choice, this is so awkward,
Jane and I gave a wonderful performance, the audience have agreed that this was the best battles performances this season."Wow! Wow! Wow! Katie and Jane! You are so great, I hope this round will have a steal deal! What a performance guys!" Quen said and came closer to me."Jane, what can you say about your fans?" Quen asked Jane."I just wanna say thank you to all of them for coming here, I really appreciate them." That was a short but sweet message."How about you Katie?" He asked."Uhm, I just want to tell them that I also appreciate them, I love them and thank you for all of there support." I smiled."And now, you're done thanking your fandoms, let's go to the coaches." Quen said."Sha, could you choose Jane? So that I can steal Katie from you, please." Coach Lani said and I just laughed, Jane was also laughing."Coach Sha, please. So that we can get Katie from you." Coach Xiah said."Hey, could you please stop, let's start our commen
"Yanna, thank you for taking care of me and Kiko for last night, I really appreciate it." I said and hugged her, she's about to leave... No, were about to leave and I'm bringing Kiko on the studio, he's just going to stay at Mama Sha's dressing room because Mama requested for Kiko."Of course Katie, anytime. Would you mind to be on the management today with me for only 30 minutes?" She asked."Even if it's only for 15 minutes, I will not go with you, Alex was there." I said."Aw, I know that feeling Katie, I love you always, I love you. I'll go to your studio Love, I'll watch, what are you going to do? Are the battles starting today?" She asked."Yes, that's why I am nervous." I said."Nervous of the other contestants or nervous because you are fresh from break up and you're gonna see your ex in that place, am I right Megan Katerina?" She asked."Of course not, I can still breathe in the same air he breathes." I said and she laughed, after that, she take us into th
"Artists, please proceed on the back stage." The staffs said so me and my other team mates proceeded on the on back stage, I know we're shooting a VTR. "Katie." I heard Quen's PA calling me. "Why?" I came towards him. "Kuya Quen was waiting for you on his dressing room, the show will not start if he's not around. So please go on his dressing room now Ate Katie." He said, I believe him so I ran into Quen's dressing room. "What do you need? Why are you looking for me?" I asked him coldly. "Why are you with Nickanor the night before last night?" He asked. "Are that going to fix our problem if I told you the reason why I am with him?" I asked him back, that sound sarcastic. "Hey Katie! Please do some effort here, please." He said and then I slapped him. "I was doing an effort Enrique, but you're not seeing it, because you are always with your Alex. You are always with her." I said. "I am with her because, it was wor
"You will be singing Masterpiece by Jessie J."My eyes widened because of it, that was my favorite song and I really know how to sang that well."Here is your copy Jane, and this one is for you Katie." Mommy Sha said and give us the piece of papers."So much pressure, why so loud. If you don't like my sound, you can turn it down. I gotta roll, and I walk it alone." Jane read the first verse, she seems not familiar on the song."Your turn baby." Mommy Sha said."Uphill battle, I look good when I climb. I'm ferocious, precocious. I get braggadocios, I'm not gonna stop, I like the view from the top." I sang it, I know what the tune was e."Okay, both of you did well. Jane sweetheart, I recommend if you would use your higher voice please. And you Katie, you're accent is perfect for the song, Masterpiece. And please Katie, don't make it sound like on a musical theatre because I heard it earlier. That's all. Could you sing it again." Mommy Sha said.We s
"Hey Katie, I missed you." His baritone voice filled the condo but I just keep on staring at him, don't even like to threw just one word to him."Uy, I'm here already, what will you sing on the battle rounds?" He get my notebook so I shouted."Give it back to me." I coldly said."Hey, what's your problem? What happened?" He asked again, don't really know huh?"Ask yourself if what is the problem." I said before he give back my notebook."I don't know Katie, I've explained everything to you right? So what's this all about? Let's fix this." He said, after a while we just heard my hands hitting his face."Could please stop playing with me Enrique? I know everything, you know that I was in Pampanga the concert night, but it wasn't true, I was on your concert! I witnessed everything Quen, everything!" I said while crying and holding the flower vase."So you mean?" He's buffering."Yeah, the way you make your audience to feel the kilig, I was hurt E
