One of the Stars

"You're going crazy" si Luigi Zambrano ng matanaw akong nag aayos na ng mga gamit. Luigi is an old friend and suitor of mine. All these years, we have been very close. Despite everything, he stayed in my life. I am in London Marriott Hotel. Kauuwi ko lang galing Florida for a business meeting. I'm here now in London for my shoot. I was busy with my jet setting life these past few years. Bukod pa 'don kung hindi shoots and pupuntahan ko, business meeting lang for my company. Nilingon ko si Luigi after isarado ang isang maleta. "I can handle this Luigi. You're crazy..." I smirked. He just shook his head and i can feel that he was just worried about me going back to the Philippines. "Do you think i don't know why are you going back to the Philippines?" "Luigi" i said while staring at myself in the mirror. I am wearing my dress. An elegant grey fitted dress paired with a brown knee high boots. I can't use our private plane since i'm saving a money. Since my father died, kuya marco decided to help me manage our company. "I'm just going to check those renovations on my company, i told you" "You're going back because he's there, iyon ang totoo" I gritted my teeth and got annoyed with Luigi. Matagal kaming nagkatinginan. He is that kind of handsome and i couldn't deny it. I told him he look angelic way back when we were young. He was years older than me, but he looked younger. "I'm going back to check on our businesses, kuya wasn't there so i was the one needed" "What a coincidence that your father died just months ago and suddenly, there's a miracle. You're going back to Philippines" I just averted his gaze and disturbed myself fixing some things. Honestly, i'm going back just for our businesses. Kuya marco was struggling managing it while i'm here....just relaxing. Whatever Luigi was thinking, it's nonsense. "I prefer you being grudge, than swallowing your pride and meet the man who hurt you" "Of course not Luigi!" i snapped at him. He raised his brows. "Then what are you doing? You're goi-" "I told you, i'll help kuya manage the company!" He laughed "Okay then...take care aria laurice" "Yes!" i said confidently. He then smiled with dismay in his eyes. Umiling din siya habang nakangiti, i avoided his gaze. I was insulted with his reaction. I could hit him immediately but what did he just said was right. Being defensive about it would only expose me more. "I don't want you to...lost yourself" he almost pleased. I already lost myself.... I said on my mind. I can't blame Luigi of his words because it's definitely true. He stayed by my side at the times i couldn't handle myself anymore. He was the one who rescued me when i'm flooded of pain. "You sure about this?" he asked again. "Yeah" i smiled at him. After those advices i'd hear from Luigi, i was feeling better because there is someone who really cares at me. "Just call me if... something went wrong" "Aye aye captain!" i hugged him tightly. I just waved my hands at him while entering the airport. He can't come with me inside because of those media waiting... for some interviews. I don't know but i suddenly feel nervous when i entered the airplane, hindi naman siguro tama ang iniisip ko. Mas mabuti ng maging assuming 'kesa totoo nga ang hinala ko but... "Good afternoon passengers. This is your captain speaking. First I'd like to welcome everyone on Rightwing Flight 86A. We are currently cruising at an altitude of 33,000 feet at an airspeed of 400 miles per hour. The time is 1:25 pm. The weather looks good and with the tailwind on our side we are expecting to land in Philippines approximately fifteen minutes ahead of schedule. The weather in Philippines is clear and sunny, with a high of 25 degrees for this afternoon. If the weather cooperates we should get a great view of the place as we descend. The cabin crew will be coming around in about twenty minutes time to offer you a light snack and beverage, and the inflight movie will begin shortly after that. I'll talk to you again before we reach our destination. Until then, sit back, relax and enjoy the rest of the flight, again this is Captain Solarez. I frozed. why? No way, hindi lang naman siya ang Solarez diba? marami naman pero bakit kinabahan agad akong sumakay pa dito. If my assumes was right then it's unexpected to be one of his passengers on this flight. "Ladies and gentlemen, we have just landed at Ninoy Aquino International Airport, Manila. On behalf of your flight deck crew headed by Captain Solarez with first officer Cruz and the rest of the team. We thank you for choosing Philippine Airlines, the airline of choice!" After riding that plane, i am now here outside of the airport waiting for kuya marco to fetch me. My brother was a criminal lawyer but since he finished his last case. He ask me if he can help manage the company. I feel sleepy now! but since kuya doesn't arrive i texted him... itsariaaa: Kuya? i feel tired, where are you? It took minutes before he replied. marcolacson: hey! sorry i can't fetch you, there's a problem here at the office! Dahil diyan, tinawagan ko na lang ang assistant ko para ipahatid ang sasakyan ko dito. Wala rin naman akong magagawa dahil nga may problema daw 'don. Successful! nahatid ang sasakyan ko dito kaya makakapag pahinga na 'rin agad ako. I started the engine of my car. Dumaan muna ako sa drive-thru para bumili ng burger. Kaya nang makaramdam ako ng gutom binitawan ko muna ang manibela para kumagat sa burger. "f**k!" napasigaw ako ng biglang may maka bangga ng likod ng sasakyan ko. What the? hindi ba siya marunong mag drive?! "What the hell! can't you drive safely?!" sigaw ko dun sa nakabangga sa akin. "I'm sor-" natigilan ako nang lingunin ko ang lalaking bumaba mula sa mamahaling sasakyan. Pareho kaming naestatwa ng makita ang isa't isa. Kaya imbes na sigaw sigawan ko pa siya tinalikuran ko na lamang. "Hey! I'm talking to you!" sigaw niya sakin. Hindi ko ulit siya pinansin at nagpatuloy lang sa paglalakad pabalik sa sasakyan. Huminto lang ako nang marinig siyang tumawa. "Miss Lacson!" sigaw niya ulit "I'm sorry for hitting your car! i know your avoiding me but this isn't the right time!" "Excuse me? your f*****g car didn't hit my car so what now?!" masungit na sabi ko. He is.. the man who was always stuck on my head... this was unexpected. "Be...careful, next time" Be careful huh... he didn't even know that he was the unexpected tragedy who brought flood's of pain to me.
