I continued my plan to enroll in a fashion class. This is just a short course. Good for 3 months and I think this is enough to help with my future work.
There was no problem with mommy actually they think its a good move for me.
Just a few days and I will start working with Vince. So now Vince will introduce me to his stylist.
Vince picked me up at our house. He is really handsome and easy to get along with. He really reminds me of Charles.
“You know what Vince you really remind me of someone.” I told him.
“Really? Who is he? Your first love?” He said foolishly then he winked.
I rolled my eyes. “Of course not! My bestfriend Charles.”
“Oh I see. Where is he now?” He asked while looking straight at the road.
“He’s in Korea. He worked there. It was his dream to become Kpop.” I said laughing.
Yes he is in Korea now to fulfill his dream of becoming Kpop. We were graduating when he sent an audition video in Korea. We were just having fun. He turns out to be half Korean so he can speak Korean. Chinky eye and fair complexion but he doesn’t look like a Korean, maybe because there is a mixture of Filipino blood in him. Like Jester, Charles was also a heartthrob in our campus.
After graduation, he told me that he was going to fly to Korea because he was accepted in one of Korean’s famous star agency. He has also been a trainee for a long time. It took him 1 year to debut but as per him he debut fast because the others took 7 years before they had their debut.
“Kpop? The Korean groups that sing and dance?” He asked.
“Most of the Kpop group are like doing that but Charles’ group is a band. He is their leader, face and guitarist.” I explain.
He frowned and looked at me for a moment but immediately returned to the road “face?”
“Yes face. In Kpop group they have what you called face. It is the most handsome in the group, the main task of the ‘face’ is to gather many fans.”
He chuckled. “Woah! Is he so handsome? He’s more handsome than me?” He said teasingly.
“I feel so cold. It seems like the air conditioner is too cold.” I teased him.
We both laughed. A few minutes later we arrived at the office slash boutique of Vince’s stylist.
Her assistant immediately assisted us. Moments later a beautiful and very sophisticated woman appeared. She is in her late 30’s, almost the same age of mommy. I am sure this will be my boss.
“Hi Auntie Zel!” Vince went to greeted her.
“Hi Vince! So is she the one you mentioned?” She asked with a smile.
“Yes Auntie. She’s Allison Alonzo, Auntie Celine’s daughter.” Vince introduce me to her.
“Oh hi! So your Celine’s daughter. Your mom and I are in the same circle. You know because we are in the same industry. Nice to finally meet you.” She said then she offered her hand for a handshake and of course I accepted it.
“Nice to meet you too Ms. Zel!” I greeted her with respect.
“Oh dear just call me Auntie Zel since your mom is very close to me.” She said.
I smiled at her. “If that’s what you want Auntie Zel.”
She told me my job description. So basically I look like Vince’s personal assistant but I just focus on his outfits and looks. Well he has his own make up artist but still as his stylist I still need to supervise it.
Vince and I were on our way home when we thought of having dinner first. He took me to an expensive restaurant. Well we are there with private rooms because since he is a celebrity we are avoiding gossip.
“It’s also hard to be an actor, isn’t it?” I asked him when we started eating.
“Yes a bit. Because you will lose your privacy so you need to be careful with your every move. Like today, I’m sure if a reporter sees us I’m sure that we will be a headline tomorrow.” Said Vince.
“Headline right away? You are so exaggerated!” I commented.
“Exaggerated? That’s true. Maybe you forgetting something. You are an Alonzo and I am a Conscio. The daughter of the owner of a well-known Magazine Company and the son of the owner of a leading TV Network were seen having dinner together at a romantic restaurant. Do you think that’s not the headline yet? ” He sound so sure of what he said.
I nodded. “Why did you bring me here?” I asked him.
“I know the owner and we have privacy here.” He explained.
“Nobody saw us right?” I asked him. I suddenly got nervous.
He is right. When a reporter knew that we are having a dinner together they will assume something and make it a big headline. He is not just a ordinary celebrity and I am now an ordinary person. Also our family business are in the same industry. We may be in different medium but still in the same circle and that will really caught reporter or any gossiper’s attention.
I just really hope that nobody sees us tonight.
But it seems like my prayer hasn’t heard because no matter how careful we are, still it is not enough for the reporter’s not to see us.
When I woke up in the morning, Lance went to me and handed me the newspaper with me and Vince is the headline.
“You need to prepare for an answer young lady! You did not asked Uncle if you are allowed to date.” Lance said to annoy me.
“You always acting like a child.” I hissed and then close the door.
We were having breakfast when mom broke the silent.
“Alli can you be honest with us, what is going on between you and Vince?” My mom asked.
“Auntie is right! I thought you were dating Andrew?!” Lance butt-in.
I glared at him.
“Shut up Lance it is still early to annoy me!” I told him they I rolled my eyes.
He chuckled. He’s so annoying.
“No mom. He just introduced me to his stylist who will be my boss when I started to work with him. Then it took us a while and its already dinner time so we thought of having dinner first before he send me home,” I explained.
“But I don’t see anything wrong with you dating Vince. Actually the reporter here is right, Vince is good for our business.” My dad commented.
“But we were really just friends daddy.” I said..
OMG! I never imagine that I will be able to hear those things that dad had said. It seems like I’m in a novel or drama series with those dialogues.
Even weekdays Lance’s group is complete. I seem to know why they suddenly rushed here.
“Alli I thought you and Andrew has something? So what is this we read on the headline?” Mike started to tease me.
Vince went to me smiling. “What did I tell you?”
Why does it seems like he is not affected or annoyed by the headline? He even look like he is happy because what he said to me last night is right. Exactly what he said is in the headline it seems like the reporter recorded what he said last night.
“Fine! Everything you said last night is right happy now?!” I said a bit sarcastic.
“But you know what Vince? It seems like uncle like the idea of you two dating.” Lance started to tease us again.
“Really? Uncle thought of that?” Amusement is seen in his face
“Yes! He said that the idea of you two dating is good for both family.” He answered.
We saw Andrew leaving. He just arrived then he will already leaving? What is his problem?
“Oh where are you going bro? I thought love is not jealous?” Mike teases him.
“Yes I said that. I am not jealous. I just want to talk to my parents and ask them to buy a big share in a TV network and also in a radio station. It seems like we chose a wrong business industry.”
All of us dropped our jaw from what he said.
