Tanging Dahilan (Daylight Series #2)

Chapter 22

The guards from the penthouse where I live started to gather for my safety. I was staying in Park Mckinley Hill in Taguig city. This was the first investment I bought for myself since I started showbiz. It has 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. Maluwag siya para sa akin pero kasama ko naman ang glam team, kaya okay lang.

Tita Regina which was my Road Manager lives along the place, around taguig city as well. She was staying in one of the condominium near my place. Kaya hindi rin masyadong hassle kapag kailangan niya akong puntahan dito sa penthouse ko.

Pinagtitinginan ako ng mga tao and they were taking pictures of me. Pinagdugtong-dugtong ng mga security ang kanilang mga kamay, para hindi ako masyado malapitan ng mga tao. I don't want to entertain them as of now, kasi ang gusto ko nalang ay magpahinga.

Ganito palagi ang eksena ko kapag uuwi ako ng penthouse. I always wanted to just teleport going to my bed and just rest. If only I could do it, I would...

Pagkapasok ko sa elevator ay hanggang do'n lang ang security. Huminga ako ng malalim ng makapasok na sa elevator at paakyat na ito sa taas. Minsan napapaisip talaga ako, kung bakit ko ba pinasok ang showbiz. Maybe, I wanted the fame? Akala ko kasi dati... Madali lang maging artista.

I see them living their life like it was the beautiful thing. But I was wrong when I finally entered the showbiz. Hindi pala gano'n, hindi pala siya gano'n kadali. Dahil marami kang hindi na nagagawa ngayon, na dati wala kang pakialam gawin. You need to act wisely and carefully, if you don't want to face the consequences.

Once you did something either a small thing or not. People will judge you base on what social media show them. Hindi man lang inaalam ang paliwanag at kwento mo, but they would close their minds for further explanations. Kaya mas mabuting manahimik ka nalang at hayaan ang issue na tumila.

I get my card and pressed it on the door lock. Binuksan ko 'yon at ginala ang mata ko sa loob ng penthouse. Ah... I miss home. My penthouse has the mixture of cream color and white minimalist. I stopped walking midway when I saw someone sitting in my sofa comfortably.

His face stretched for a smile. "Ate! Ah... I miss you."

He stood up and went to hug me. Sinalubong ko naman ang mahigpit na yakap niya sa'kin. He grown up like a fine man, his features was showing that his getting older. Mas lalong gumwapo ang kapatid ko na namalagi siya sa Paris.

He got the surgeon license when he was in Paris. And work there as the most effective surgeon. Kaya mas lalo siyang nagiging busy sa Paris dahil gusto ng mga tao sa kan'ya. They would find him if there is a person who'll undergo surgery.

"Bakit ka nakapasok dito sa penthouse ko?" Takang tanong ko.

"I still have your spare key, remember the last time I went home here?"
