During the times when I thought the world had abandoned me, I can't imagine I could find solace in his company... not until a horrible episode happens.I couldn't fully imagine that the joy I felt was short-lived. After he brought me out of sadness, he buried me back to hell.He's the only person who pushes me to pursue my dream... he taught me that I'm a worthy person and that I also have the freedom to fulfill my objectives in life.I reached my dream... It's just sad because the moment I finally obtain my victory… he’s gone."Are you even serious? I can participate in the taping even though I haven't experienced being a wedding coordinator! So, what's the use of me working for 1 month just for that?""You're the actress here, Corrine. You should be knowledgeable enough about the role you will play.

CHAPTER 2

In the midst of walking down the road, I passed a seminar in the capitol. The audience is high school students and the topic is career guidance. Probably for Grade 10 students entering K-12.I suddenly missed the time when I was still in high school, when Mom and Dad were still with me. I've promised them that after ten or fifteen years, they will see me both on TV.I'm dreaming of being a celebrity back then.But things like that couldn't be able to happen. Far from the reality of my dream coming true... 'cause I'm meant to sustain that witches' needs. Maybe Aunt Gretchen was right when she told me that dreaming is only for the poor. She said that we are not poor, so I don't need to dream anymore.My father is working abroad, doing hard work there just to make our life stable here in the Philippines. But instead of being happy, I'm not happy because like my father, I'm also suffering at the hands of his future wife.I am tiring myself to work at home and work the sidelines at a fast f

CHAPTER 3

He hit me with that counterattack. Of course, right? What fool would say that she is satisfied with her life when she is so wrapped up in sadness?"Whether or not you are satisfied with your life, you can dream because that is one thing that will give you the motivation to live... and the joy when it comes true.""Dreaming is free, so don't be mean to yourself. Live for yourself, not for others. You were not born to serve them, because you lived in the world to find something that will make you happy before you even die. Human life is short, are you going to waste your life just to serve others?""It's not bad to have a goal for yourself... because I believe the real joy is when you achieve your goal."After saying that, he left. Instead of feeling sorry for myself in my current situation, I feel more sorry for the person inside that gigantic mascot. He will waste a lot of sweat just for his goal of making people happy.But seriously, I owe that person a gratitude. Somehow I was encour

CHAPTER 4

When I finally got inside my room, I was about to go to the bathroom to take a shower when I noticed something... those posters I collected from different entertainments that I was supposed to be auditioning for, why are they torn?I picked them up one by one, banging on Aunt Gretchen's room. "Who tore these?!"Stacy raised her hands. "Me."I was about to attack her with great anger when Aunt Gretchen blocked me from doing so. "Have you forgotten what I told you earlier?"I looked at her. "Who the hell are you for me to follow you? You're not even my mother, so you have no right to rule my life!”I received another slap from her. "You have no manners, stupid! Have my hands no longer giving you pain, so now you are being brave?!”"You ruined my dream," I murmured. "Your daughter ruined my dream, do you know that?! They are very important to me because listed here are the contact numbers and addresses of the talent agents I am aiming to look for... but now that they are in disrepair, how

CHAPTER 5

"My instinct is functioning really well and great. I really knew I would find you here.” A man came, I felt him sit next to me. "Have you come from Miss Fiona's?"I nodded. "You?""I just got back too. Where were you deployed?"“Amana Beach and Resort.”“Same!” He grabbed my arm. "Irene, we share the same place. I’m going to fetch you everyday at your house, so you won’t be late. How’s that sound?”I just laughed at him before shaking my head. "It's a hassle for you to pass by our house. Your journey will take too long. I can handle myself, I'll just limit reading online books, so I don't stay up late anymore.""Are you sure you don't want to come with me? Even going home?”I shook my head. “Not anymore, Harold. I can handle myself. I'm sure I'm used to going home alone…”And it looks like I'm about to get used to living alone as well."It's up to you," he said. "But you know, I'm excited for next week. My excitement doubled because you are the one who will be there with me," he added

CHAPTER 6

"Girlfriend?" Harold and Celine, and I asked the man who suddenly appeared.I also got confused because I don't know him so why would he just say that I am his girlfriend? Is this man crazy?"Excuse me--"He smiled at me. "Let's go?" He held my hand and was about to drag me out there but he stopped. He looked at Celine while being calmed. "Make it a hobby to listen to your boyfriend's explanation before jumping to conclusions, huh?"And we walked away from that place... Still he's holding my hand. As much as I wanted to walk away from this strange man, I couldn't. I lost my strength because of what happened, my brain just couldn't process things easily as of the moment."Thank me later," as he stopped from walking, he started talking. "I deserve it, don't I?""Why did you do that?" I went straight to the point. "I don't even need your help, so why did you do that? We don't know each other in the first place, so what right do you have to interfere in my life?"“Is that the way you than

CHAPTER 7

"They’re saying I’m brave enough to accept the fact that the man I used to admire won't really like me. It's pretty normal to feel pain at first, trying to accept the reality that the man you like doesn’t feel the same as you, believe me that shattered my heart into pieces. But the central idea here is that when I accepted his rejection towards me and learned to accept that we were not meant for each other, I began to be determined to change myself.""Upon realizing the things that I should eradicate in my life, I changed for the better. I've been rejected once but I'm still thankful because that happened… Because that was the way for me to find a man who can accept me completely. Being able to love the real me... The old me, and the new me," Delancy said with a smile.Did they approach me on purpose? To lecture me about rejection. If that's the case, I owe these two a thank you. Indeed, people tend to learn from others' experiences… And because of what they both said, I learned anoth

CHAPTER 8

I smiled a little. I didn't expect that I would suddenly feel good about Israel. Maybe his confession to me that he was my secret admirer helped, so I stopped being mean to him. He looks like a sensible man... And maybe I'll just wait for the day to come when, through his old-fashioned courting style, I'll fall for him.I don't think it would possibly happen... But I don't want to spearhead destiny."Who is that man I saw here earlier?" I was about to enter the gate, only to be greeted by Stacy's surprised face. Obviously, she's referring to Israel. "Who's that guy, Irene?"I raised my left eyebrow at her, giving her a bored look. "Why do you even care?""Of course, I care!" she exclaimed. "Because that guy looks familiar."Israel looks familiar to Stacy? Do they know each other?"You're not answering my question, Irene! Who is that man?!"I came back to my senses when Stacy spoke again. All I can do is to stare at her blankly, finding the right word to utter at this moment."Whoever

CHAPTER 9

"Are you a service crew here?" she asked, very amused. "Are you a working student?"I immediately looked away, I felt like she was insulting me by the way she said those words. This is one of the disadvantages of being a working student... When your acquaintances or classmates see you working.Never did I imagine that it could also possibly happen to me. That feeling when Celine saw me struggling to wipe the tables, I felt insulted. I felt downgraded."Irene," she mentioned my name again. "Look, I'm just asking you a question, but I didn't mean to offend you. Well, the answer to the question is obvious, so why did I bother to ask anyway?" She laughed at her own statement. "I'm sorry if I ever stepped on your ego. But seriously, I'm not here to poke fun at you.""Of course, you're here to order a meal, aren't you?" I faked a smile. "Can I take your order?""Irene…" She held my hand. "I want to apologize for what I did to you last time. I was just so angry when I saw you and Harold toge

CHAPTER 10

"Is that funny?" Now he is the one who is getting mad at me. "I'm just saying, Irene... Stop working. You’re living in such a pretty and huge mansion, so why do you need to work? You look rich-""I work for myself. Is that bad? When you can afford all expensive goods or you’re rich, you're not allowed to work?""Unless you have a deeper reason for doing that," he said. "You must have thought I had forgotten your confession to me before... When I was still Teddie, The Teddy Bear.""I think it's my obligation to provide for my family's needs," since he already unleashed what I’m trying to hide, I stopped from telling lies. "Let’s cut the superstition that parents are responsible to provide what their children need forever. They’re job won’t last long. It's too early, but I think this is the perfect time for me to hand over money to them.""Almost two years ago, I decided to combine studying with working... 'Cause I think I have to. My life was not easy, but look at me now, I am survivin
