Vhyle POV

"Ladies and Gentleman lets all welcome Vhyle Ortega" I heard everyone inside the event claps to welcome me. The MC who introduced me exits the stage and the spot light starts to focus on me.

Huminga ako ng malalim at nagsimulang tipahin ang piano sa harapan ko.

(beautiful in white *piano instrumental*)

I gently close my eyes and feel every note I hit.

"Vhyle, are you ready?" I smiled at Nik and made a deep breath. This is it, after five years, I'm ready.

"Okay, see you bro." He tap me hard on my chest before he walk away with smile in his face. I know he feels happy for me because he knows everything I've been through before reaching this spot.

*phone rings*

A smile drew in my face as I saw the caller's name.

Ali'love calling...

I immediately answer the phone, but my smile fades when I felt something's wrong even she's not yet saying a thing.

"Hello Ali." I can hear her deep breath, I can feel she's nervous, I can feel she's about to cry.

"Hell-"

"I-I'm sorry. V-Vhyle, I-I'm sorry. I-I'm sorry..." Paulit-ulit. Masakit, dahil alam kong nahihirapan siya. I'm clueless of what I should say, what I should do. I'm in a total shock for what's happening.

"Ali. W-Wha- What is it? Why are you so sorry?" At the end I chose to pretend that I didn't know anything, because that's the only way I can keep her, that's the only way this couldn't end.
