When Engineer Reaches Sirius

Chapter 5

V- Entrust

Nakarating na kami sa venue. When I saw where are we now, hindi na ako nagulat. Inaasahan ko nang nasa isang hotel kami, but the place was too gradiose. Nasa labas pa lang kami ng hotel but I can guess it is for high-class.

"Mommy, what's this event all about?" I asked curiously.

She gave me a small smile, "Uh, a press conference, baby. This event will just introduce the cast sa bago kong movie,"

Naglalakad kami papunta sa make-up room, that was her manager command to go there. I was wondering why even her manager told me that I shouldn't come with them. As if naman na ipapakilala ako ni mommy dito. I only want to be with them kaya.

"Do you get the main role, mommy?" I asked that I find it wrong because I already know the answer.

"Of course. They suggested me to be." she answered.

I noticed she's uncomfortable. "Is there any problem, mommy?"

"W-Wala. I'm just nervous," she smiled after saying those words.

For what?

Is it weird? Bakit parang lahat ng tao ngayon ay hindi kumportable?

"Eh, bakit hindi pa po tayo pumapasok ngayon? Saka nasaan po si daddy?" sunod-sunod kong tanong and somehow to change the aura.

"We are waiting for someone, anak." she answered misteriously.

"Sino po?"

I guess we are complete now. Wala naman akong kapatid. So, who's the one we are waiting for?

"Hi, girls!"

Lumingon ako para makita kung sino 'yung tumawag sa amin. It was Tita Irene, she was wearing a simple t-shirt partnered with a high-waisted pants that makes her look cool.

"Tita Irene!" I hugged her tightly.

Ngayon ko na lang siya ulit nakita personally, but still she was able to chat me on social media to ask how I am doing when my parents was not around.

Tita Irene caressed my hair. "I guess someone is missing me,"

I nodded, "Yes, I missed you so much, Tita." I gently said.

"Irene," mom called her.

Umayos ng tayo si Tita Irene at hinarap si mommy.

"And I guess, someone is using me again." she said while pouting.

Mom hugged her too. "Thank you so much, Jirene."

I saw Tita Irene frowned. "I should go home now, Tray."

I laughed at them. I didn't get what they are talking about pero kasi they look cute teasing each other.

"Sydney," Tita Irene leveled my height.

"Why, po?"

She caressed my hair while smiling. "You know what's going on, right?"

I pouted. "I don't,"

Tumawa siya at ginulo ang buhok ko. "Okay, I'm going to explain you."

She looked at me seriously. Parang ang bigat ng kaalaman na malalaman ko ngayon. I'm little nervous about it.

"This event is for the movie where  your mom is working. It's a big project of her and big project means extracting more effort for it," she started.

"And?"

"Maraming artist at production team dito ang hindi ka dapat makilala, Sydney. Hindi ka nila kilala at hindi mo rin sila kilala. We don't know what will happen once they know about your real identity,"
