Charity Begins in Gratitude

Emerging Star (ES) has finally found the formula to become one her management’s important talents. Having been in the shadows of the other bankable stars, ES could not seem to find the right mix to make her career rise. Even her personal life was in shambles, as family and relationship problems became the topic for entertainment pages. Nonetheless, ES and Her Camp (HC) pushed on until the management risked and finally, things were paying off.

Behind the impending success of ES is the support she received when she was a toddler. That was the time when former Top Personality (TP) gave her attention and treated her like her own child. These moments created an imprint in the mind of ES, as the kindness and thoughtfulness of TP touched her heart. TP was generous, and did not mind spoiling ES. After all, at that time, the family of ES was still struggling and she was merely known as a celebrity baby.

Sadly, times became tough for TP. Her personal life did not end up like a fairytale. The prince did not give her a ‘happily ever after,’ and thus, she had to find ways to support her family. Allegedly, she had a benefactor, but today, this person is no longer supporting her. Several bad decisions made her realize that she has to downgrade her lifestyle if she wants to give her family the best. Thus, she sold her property and other assets that she had earned when the money was still good.

Although she did not want to, TP turned to ES for assistance. Desperate times called for desperate measures. School fees for the kids had to be paid and no projects were coming her way. ES willingly obliged, as she was now far more stable than TP. However, there was a major problem. All her finances were managed by HC, who used to be close to TP.

The relationship of HC and TP is like a seesaw. One moment, they are cordial to each other, while in the next, expect them to be enemies. ES and her generation are somehow dragged into the tiff even though they do not want to get involved. Unfortunately, both HC and TP have issues against each other and reconciliation might take a while. When ES broached the idea of helping out TP, HC went ballistic and told ES not to do anything. Refusing to help out TP was the way of HC to teach her a lesson.

Despite the negative stories that revolved around ES, she wanted to help TP, who is having a bad deal in life. TP found a way to disobey HC without attracting attention. Allegedly, she requested the management if a certain amount could already be deducted in her pay, which goes directly to HC. She said that the deducted amount will go to TP to help her out. Perhaps, ES has indeed matured and is now making sound decisions. Besides, doing good could very well help her get the karma that she so deserves.
