"Gette, samahan mo nga ako sa restroom. Najijingle na ako." Sabi ni Agnes. Hindi pa ako nakakasagot pero hinila na agad ako nito. Kaya wala na akong nagawa.
"Hintayin mo na lang ako dito." Pumasok na siya sa isa sa mga cubicle, kaya naiwan ako sa labas hinihintay siya. Ang ginawa ko na lang ay naghugas. Maya-maya may lumabas sa isang cubicle.
"Hello Mi, tapos na po. Yeah, I think, na gustuhan naman ng mga judges. Sunduin niyo na ako dito. Bye." Tinignan ko naman ang nagsasalita habang may kausap hindi dahil nakikiusisa pero nakikita ko lang na mukhang siyang masaya sa kausap niya pero ang totoo pinapasaya lang niya lang yung boses niya para hindi makita na malungkot talaga siya.
"Hi! Mag-aaudition ka rin?" Nakangiting Tanong nito saakin. Pero makikita na hindi ito may pinagdaraan siya. Maybe, iniisip pa rin nito ang audition kanina at napanuod ko iyon.
"Oo.. "
"Ah... Good luck sayo."
"Thanks" tamang-tama lumabas si Agnes at nakita niyang nakikipag-usap ako sa babae.
"Sige alis na ako.. goodluck ulit" tumango naman ako. Nakita ko naman itong babaeng natulos sa kinatatayuan niya at mukhang hindi pa nakarecover.
"Hoy, ayos ka lang? "
"Hindi mo sinabi close pala kayo ni Eraizha."
"Ha! Sinong Eraizha?"
"Yung kausap mo lang kanina. Hindi mo ba kilala nag-audition kanina yun, Artista rin."
"Ahh"
"Ah. lang pwede mong sabihin diyan... hindi mo kilala kung sino yung mga nakakausap mo? hindi ka man lang nagpapicture?"
" psh. Kailangan pa ba yun? Hindi naman na importante yun. Hindi naman na kami magkikita."
"Ewan ko nga sayo. Tara na.." nauna na ito saakin. Dahil tulala lang ako habang naglalakad hindi ko namalayang may bumungo na saakin. Kaya napaurong ako ng kunti pero tuloy-tuloy lang itong naglakad. Psh antipatiko hindi man lang magsorry. Umupo na ako sa pwesto ko at humarap sa monitor.
Maya-maya pa tinawag na yung no. 147. At tumayo yung isang babae at sa kabila naman ay yung lalaking nakabungo saakin. Psh.. pinagdadasal ko tuloy na sana hindi siya makuha. ang sama ko tuloy.

Sinamahan ako ng staff papuntang pinto ng room. Pinihit niya ito at nagsenyas na pwede na akong pumasok. Madilim sa una pero habang tumatagal ay nagkakailaw senyas na may bagong dumating at ako yun. Tumutok saakin ang spot light at mga camera man sa gilid bigla tuloy akong nakacontious.
"Hi! Good evening, my name is Driana Ellesse Faustin. I am 19 years old." Ngumiti ako ng bahagya para pagtakpan ang kaba ko.
"Nevertheless, had we already met? You seem familiar." Sabi ni Miss Venna.
"Yes, we did meet at the Paris fashion show when I was 15 years old." Tumango lang ito.
"Since you are already a model, what is the reason why are you here?" Miss Trish, alangan naman sabihin ko ang totoo na pinilit ako ng walang hiya kong Errrrrrr. Ayokong bangitin kung ano siya sa akin dahil kahit ako hindi ko alam kung paano nangyari iyon. well back to the topic. Ano bang pwedeng sabihin ko?
"For me po kasi. Modeling is quite similar to a pastime. Yes, it makes me happy. But I want to learn more about myself; maybe I'll find it here." Sana maniwala sila.
"How do you say that; you can see it here?" Mataray na sabi ni Miss Lorie. Naiintindihan ko siya kung bakit ganun agad siya nakapagreact akala niya is parang wala lang saakin ito at dahil bored ako kaya ito ang gagawin, satingin ko ganun ang iniisip niya. She already considers music to be a part of her life.
"I'm here to prove to you that I have a skill, that's why."
"Hmmm. Could you play some of your faves on the electric guitar for us to hear after you sing?" Tumango lang ako after that na rinig ko na yung kanta.
ONE STEP AT A TIME
( JORDIN SPARKS)
Hurry up and wait so close but so far away
Everything that you've always dreamed of
Close enough for you to taste but you just can't touch
You wanna show the world but no one knows your name yet
Wonder when and where and how you're gonna make it
You know you can if you get the chance
In your face and the door keeps slamming
Now you're feeling more and more frustrated
And you're getting all kind of impatient, waiting
We live and we learn to take
One step at a time there's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly or falling in love
It's gonna happen when it's supposed to happen
That we find the reasons why, one step at a time
You believe and you doubt
You're confused and got it all figured out
Everything that you always wished for
Could be yours, should be yours, would be yours if they only knew
You wanna show the world but no one knows your name yet
Wonder when and where and how you're gonna make it
You know you can if you get the chance
In your face and the door keeps slamming
Now you're feeling more and more frustrated
And you're getting all kind of impatient, waiting
We live and we learn to take
One step at a time there's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly or falling in love
It's gonna happen and it's supposed to happen
That we find the reasons why, one step at a time
When you can't wait any longer
(You can't wait)
But there's no end in sight
(When you need to find the strength)
It's the faith that makes you stronger
The only way we get there is one step at a time
Take one step at a time there's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly or falling in love
It's gonna happen and it's supposed to happen
That we find the reasons why, one step at a time
One step at a time there's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly or falling in love
It's gonna happen and it's supposed to happen
That we find the reasons why one step at a time
"The was great... I'm not acquainted with that piece you performed, but I'm extremely amazed, to the point that I assumed two people were playing it but could play it all alone. Bakit nakikita ko si Trish sayo. The way you moved and looked at the camera was smooth and fantastic, and I believe it complements your singing performance. That's right, one step at a time. You don't need to rush... I guess that's all. May sasabihin pa kayo." Pagpupuri ni Miss Venna.
"I suppose. I'm doing Venna a favor as well. She seldom gave compliments, therefore you merited her appreciation. kahit minsan lang magsalita pero kung alam niyang deserving.. pupurihin niya. So that's all I could say." Miss Lorie.
"So ako ng basehan ngayon. Sana ako na lang palang mag-isang nagjudge dito." Sarcastic na sabi niya pero natawa lang kami.
"So good luck...I hope to see you at the competition.."
