He Made the Cut

In the beginning, a  hot Young Hunk YH was the favorite of His Manager HM.HM had given YH steady projects which provided well for YH’s family, he being the breadwinner. HM was very generous to him, even giving him free use of his condo unit so that YH would be near his commitments and would no longer commute far to his home. It was indeed an ideal and comfortable set-up for both.

But as time went by, YH’s projects began to dwindle. He lost to a much Older Actor OA whom HM focused on more. Some say that was so because HM was having a hard time disciplining the stubborn YH as far as career and other important decisions were concerned. HM found OA more cooperative and professional and thus was favored more. 

Consequently, YH severed his ties from HM. Without projects to look forward to anymore, YH ventured out looking for anything to tide him over. He could not afford not to because of the need to help his family. And as desperate as he was then, YH clung on to whatever was available for that time. It was then that he was reported to be on the flesh trade. There was reliable information that he was often sighted at a popular entertainment/leisure place and was selling himself to gays and “matronas” for several thousands a night.  

To his loaded clients, YH’s rate was cheap, a steal for his overall look and status – specially his performance – which was allegedly, a feast. Expectedly, YH hang on to it for quite a time. When he finally grew tired of it, he went back to HM to reconsider him. Unfortunately, HM turned him down. 

Heard from the grapevine that HM would have taken him back if only YH didn’t engage in the flesh trade. He was completely aghast that YH got into it. HM reportedly talked to YH’s parents to tell them formally that he was no longer keen on taking YH. Heard that HM was also relieved that he would not have to deal with his parents anymore who were so fond of making advance payments, among others.  

Amidst what seemed like hopelessness, luck smiled at talented YH. Not long after, he was offered a television series and it looked like it would be the start of steady projects for him. Reportedly, the series with him on the lead is a very promising one – something that HM was not able to give him when he was still under his wing.

Sometimes, fate plays tricks. Not all that you lose is a loss.
