31: Words and inspirations

Basically, Mama already drove me to Clique Park to meet up with the band. I missed them already. Turns out, si Gail pa lang yung nakakarating sa park.

"Hi, bes!" she said, as we crashed into each other and ended up into a tight hug.

"Oh my gods, Gail! Finally! An album! Of our own! I'm so excited. Pero at the same time...I feel off of the idea being known to the people around us..."

"Ano ka ba? I know you know that we're unlike the artists nowadays," she assured me.

Maya-maya pa, after a long talk, dumating na rin si Trey, Raven and Luke, together with Ate Love. Where have they been kaya?

"Hello, girls!" Ate Love greeted us and hugged us tightly.

"Sooooo, tell us. Again," Gail nudged.

"Okay. So ayun nga. Yung nasa text... Clef Records wants to sign a record deal with you. I just came to tell you na magprepare na kayo ng written songs niyo. Pero okay lang kung hindi niyo kaya. But it's much better that you know songwriting. Mas maganda yung nacu-customize niyo yung songs niyo. Feeling ko kasi if the song's personal or somewhat relatable, it's better kasi you know the emotion," Ate Love explained.

"You sound like our producer," Luke commented.

"Oo nga, Ate," I agreed.

"I've written a song already," Trey blurted out and pulling out a piece of paper out of his jacket's pocket.

TREY'S VIEWPOINT

Nagkatinginan kaming lahat and they were smiling like they want to tear their faces off. I just smiled like them and handed the paper to Ate Love, to which Alli stole from Ate's hands.

"Nice lyrics. Can you sing it?" she asked.

"Hand me the paper," I obliged. "Actually, I've also got the chords for it."

"Wooooow! I think this is the song you're going to sing na ipopost niyo online!" Ate Love said in glee.

"Okay here goes the song... Tell her a story, tell her the honest truth / You treat her better, make sure to see it through / Don't be just everything she wants, be everything she needs / When she says she loves you, tell her you love her too / Oh oh oh~"

"OMG! Is this the song for the girl that you-know?" tanong ni Alli which startled, Maya-maya pa, nagkatinginan na si Gail at si Raven (they knew I liked Alli). While Luke (he also knows) was shooting death glares at me (as if I'm going to die at his glares) and Ate Love, was just dumbfounded.

"Well, sort-of. Actually, if you'll really understand the song, it's for the guy who got the dibs first. I just want to know that this guy doesn't want to break her heart and all," I said confidently. What? There's nothing to hide, though I don't want Alli to know, and I'll just let Ate Love to know by herself.

After saying that, I turned to Luke, habang si Gail at si Raven naman, nagkatinginan lang ulit.

"Wow, that's really sweet of you... If I could just meet the girl, sasabihin ko na ikaw na lang ang piliin niya," Alli commented back, as if na hindi niya nakikita yung mga hidden secrets between our glares and gazes.

Napaisip naman ako sa nasabi niya... What if I already made a move? What if I didn't pushed her feelings to Luke? What if... Ugh, fck this what-ifs.

"If you could just meet the girl, babe. If you could just meet her," pagsingit naman ni Gail sa usapan.

"Oh my gods, na-meet mo na siya?"

"Oo, tagal. Actually, may pagkakatulad nga kayo eh."

"Oh really? I think we'll get along! If I were her talaga, I'd choose you." I think my mind just explode. What did she just say? What did she just fcking say?
