Jennie

Chu and I are preparing na for the MT Night. Ilang oras nalang, magpeperform na ako sa harap ng maraming tao. Kinakabahan ako na ewan. Bukod sa mamaya na yung performance ko, I have decided na magconfess na kay Lalisa.

"Okay kana Jendeukie? Alam mo na ba yung lines mo?" Sabi ni Chu.

"Lines? What lines?"

"Aba edi yung sasabihin mo kay Lalisa." Ooh, that.

"Akala ko naman kung anong lines. Chu, I already know that. Let's go na, Mason's waiting outside."

Nandito na kami sa hall and ang dami na agad tao. Iniwan na ako ni Chu sa backstage since kailangan na nyang mag MC. Narinig ko na nagsimula na ang event.

"Okay, So this night wouldn't be complete without our beloved CEO Yang. Please give him a round of applause."

Eto na. Malapit na. Parang maiihi ata ako. Hindi ako mapakali sa pwesto ko. Nagsalita na si lolo. Winelcome nya yung mga freshmens.

"And before I leave this stage. I would like to introduce to you my one and only granddaughter, Jennie!"

Lumabas na ako ng backstage and wow, ang daming estudyante na naghiyawan. Hinanap ko agad si Lalisa sa crowd but I failed.

"Hi, everyone. I know some of you already know me. And for those who don't, Hi, I'm Jennie Kim. I prepared something for you guys and I hope you'll like it. Music please."

I started swaying along to the music. I was searching for Lalisa pa din. Medyo nakaka'silaw yung ilaw na naka'tapat sakin.

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you.

As i started singing, other students started to dance with their dates. Nasaan ka ba Lalisa? Para sayo tong kanta ko huy. Pag tingin ko sa side, nakita ko sila Kai and she's with Lalisa. Bakit ang ganda ganda nya kahit nasa malayo?

Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothing else to compare

Nakipag'titigan ako kay Lalisa. Makuha ka sa tingin please? Ramdam ko na medyo na'iilang na sya. What a tease Jennie Kim.

The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak
But if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that is real
You're just to good to be true
I can't take my eyes off you.

Nakita kong lumabas sya ng hall. Anong problema nun? I want to follow her but I need to finish the song first. Nung natapos na yung kanta, nagpalakpakan sila. Dali dali akong bumaba ng stage at lumabas. Where did that Barbitch go? Kung saan saan na ako nakapunta pero wala pa din akong nakikitang Barbitch. Ang sakit na ng paa ko, I forgot naka'heels nga pala ako. Ugh. Dumaan ako sa soccer field and there I saw Barbitch. Nakaupo sa damuhan habang naka'tingin sa langit. Dahan dahan akong pumunta sa pwesto nya at umupo sa tabi nya. Naka'tingin lang ako sa kanya. Maya maya pa, napa'tingin na sya sa tabi nya.

"Hi." I said then smiled at her.

"Uhh, Hi? What are you....doing here?" Bakit ba parang naiilang sya sakin? Hmp.

"I saw you leave the hall earlier e. You don't like my performance? Is my voice really that bad?" Curious lang hehe

"No no. You're really good! It's just that... I needed some air kaya lumabas ako. I hate crowded places e."

Really? I'm good?

"Hmm. The reason why I'm here is that... I want to say sorry. I don't know if you remember me but I'm the girl at Pop's who cut into the line. I'm really sorry for being rude to you that day. Yung best friend ko kasi. Inutusan lang nya ako na umorder. And she said na gawan ko daw ng paraan kung paano ako makaka'order ng mabilis. Hindi pa naman ako sanay umorder mag isa. And ikaw yung nakita ko na mukhang mabait at akala kong papalagpasin ako sa line but... I was wrong hehe. So, I'm sorry."
