Chapter 3.1
(Still the same POV)
By 5:45 bumalik pumunta na kami sa backstage ng mga friends ko, andun na din sina James, like us, bihis na din sila and super prepared na.
"Okaay everyone, Good luck sa atin. Relax lang sa stage ha? Just enjoy the performance ha?" sabi sa amin ni Alyna
Oh gossh, I am so nervous. Kahit na sanay akong mag perform sa US iba pa din dito sa Pinas. No one actually knows na marunong akong kumanta, baka kung anu ano pa yung maging bulungan nila, and isa pa, baka hindi ko ma meet ang expectations ng Daddy ko. Awww. I'm so stressed out! Isama mo pa yung bumabalik YATA na feelings ko towards Troy. Aiiiisssh. Mababaliw na ako! Sana lang maka perform ako ng maayos.
"Hoy Airiza! Kanina ka pang tulala. Okay ka lang?" si James yan.
"Ha?? Ahh, ee. oo, I'm okay." sagot ko.
"Sure ka ha? Baka mamaya mag collapse ka sa stage."
"OA naman yan James."
"Anong OA? Nagcollapse ka na kaya remember?!"
"Yeah right, but I'm not sick okaay? Kahit hawakan mo pa ang noo ko!"
"Oo na! Basta magsabi ka pag masama pakiramdam mo." oohhmmss, he's too concerned with me.
"Opo Daddy!" sabi ko with a cute smile ^___^
"Sus, Daddy? Ikaw Mommy?"
Ano daaaw??!!!
"Anong Mommy?! Baby mo ako noh! Beh! :P" sabay kurot sa pisngi ni James "Ang gwapo gwapo talaga ng Daddy ko, sino kaya si Mommy?"
"Ikaw nga sabi eh!" -- James
"Ewan ko sa'yo! Labo mong kausap eeh!" -- ako
"Ikaw nga jan ang--"
Hindi na natuloy ang sinasabi nya dahil tinakpan ni Alyna yung bibig nya.
"Kayon ngang dalawa! Just for once! Tumahimik kayo okay!"
Ayung natameme na kami ni James sa tabi. After 5 minutes, nag simula na ang contest, rinig namin yung emcee na nag aanounce, tapos mukhang madaming tao. Gosh... I'm so tensed.
"Kinakabahan ka?"
Huh?! Tumingala ako para makita ko kung sino ang nag sasalita.
"Ikaw pala.... Troy." oh-kay, it's Troy again.
"Aha, Don't be nervous, magaling ka kaya!" sabi nya sa akin, trying to lighten up.
"Paano akong hindi kakabahan, pakinggan mo kaya yung group nina Cheena, ang galing nilang kumanta eh!"
Alright! Cheena, one of my frenemies. Well, friends naman talaga kami, kaso nga lang, we have insecurities sa isa't isa, kaya ayun.
"Sus! Airiza! Boses ipis naman si Cheena eh! Pati yung mga kabanda nya! You're better!"
Napatawa naman ako sa sinabi ni Troy.
"Ayan, tumawa ka na! Mas bagay sa'yo ang nakangiti kaya wag sisimangot ha?"
I nodded.
"Thanks Troy ha? You're lightening me up. I thought I would hate you forever pero I guess I can't, Ang bait mo pa rin sa akin." say ko sa kanya.
"I won't let you to hate me forever. And always remember na kahit hindi na tayo, I'm always here for you as a Bestfriend. Okay?"
"How sweet of you Troy. Thanks." Then he hugged me, ano pa bang magagawa ko? I hugged him back too.
"Ehem!"
Oh gosh, sino naman yon??!! Napahiwalay kami ni Troy sa isa't isa.
"A-ano kasi, kinakagat na ako ng langgam dito?" si James lang pala.
Haaaaaaaaay naku, inggit lang 'to for sure.
"Talaga lang James ha? If I know, selos ka lang!" sabi ko.
O.O -- mukha ni James.
"Hahahahahahah! James! Your face!!!" sabi ni Kevin
"A-anong Selos! Illusyonada ka masyado!" sigaw ni James sa akin.
"Ilusyonada? How dare you say it to me! Hmmm, you're only proving that your Jelous! Bleh! :P" Waahahahah! Ookrayin ko muna si James..
"Spell ASA Airi!" say ni James.
"Well, asa? It's A-S-A! Am I right?" haha. Mapipikon na si JAmes lateerrr!
"Aba pilo---" Naputol na naman ang complaint ni James dahil....
"Okay CROSSPATH BAND punta na kayo sa stage!"
Oh my GOSHNESSS!!!
"Okaay my dearests, Good luck sa inyo! I know you can do it! Show them that we can do better than other performers okay? Sa harap kami ng stage uupo." say ni Alyna
Woooohh, gosh.....
I think kelangan ko ng gayahin si Sharpay!.... (Yung vocal exercises ni Sharpay Evans remember?)
Inhale... Exhale...
"Come on Airi!" -- James
Alright! This is it! The night of my life. LOL! O.A na!
Wooooohh!
Ayan, asa stage na kami. We're the center of attraction now. Hmm, ang dami ngang tao. Sana magustuhan nila yung kanta namin....
"Good Evening Everyone! We are the Crosspath Band." sabi yan ni Troy, ako naman nakatingin lang sa kanila.
"So maybe, we have to introduce ourselves first. What do you think?" sabi naman ni James, Aba. at komportable pala ito sa stage.
They crowd said yes.... Hahaha.
"Alright, mauna na ako. I'm Troy Steven Gonzales, the lead guitarist and vocalist." Oh my, I have to speak after James.
"I am James Keith Araneta, Base guitar and vocalist...." then tumingin sa akin si James..
Go . I can do this.!
"Good evening everybody! I am Airiza Yuri Alvarez the lead vocalist" wheeew! That's it!
"We love you Airizaaaa!!!!!" Oh my! Who was that???
Biglang tumabi sa akin sa James at Troy.
"Ang prinsesa may fans na!" sabay nilang sabi. Sinamaan ko na lang ng tingin.
Then nag pakilala pa yung iba... Kevin for the Drums and Raica for the keyboards.
I have to speak na, ayokong tahimik pa dito, baka bawas points yun.
"So, we're going to start na. The first song will be sang by Me... Yeah. I am dedicating this to all of you... I hope you'll like it." -- ako
And that's it! I sang Coming For You by Jojo as expected. The crowd loved it by the way. Tapos sumunod yung Vulnerable ni James.. Ayun, tilian ang mga babae sa tabi... Mag kakaroon na din ito ng Fans Club. Instant sikat eh! Then next si Troy with his song Your Call. Oh well as expected. Ang dami kayang Fans nito! Pero there is this girl that hooked my eyes.. F na F nya yung pag kanta ni Troy, as if it's for her. TSSSS.
"Alright! I guess you liked the solo songs, ang next song naman ay duets." sabi ni Raica.
"Your right Raica! The next song will be sang by me and my bestfriend Airiza. Actually, this is a break-up song, ganun yung meaning ng kanta ee. Kinda senti. And you all know that my bestfriend is my EX girlfriend, but we're okay na. Maybe this song will fit us? Hahaha. But this song will fit for those who just broke up. I hope you'll like it." -- Troy
Tama ka Troy, this is a break up song. Haaaaaaaaaaaaaay. >.<
"So let's start?" -- ako, faking a smile.
inhale. exhale.... i'm gonna start..
Airiza:♫♪Picture perfect memories
Scattered all around the floor
Reaching for the phone 'cause
I can't fight it anymore♫♪
I remembered the times when my life got so wasted dahil sa break up namin. Though I know ako ang nakipag break. It was just so hard kasi, he broke my trust. I usually don't eat, nakatulala lang ako sa room. Minsan nanonood ako ng TV. Pero kahit comedy pinapanood ko, umiiyak ako eh.
GHAAAAAAAAAAAD. I'M BITTER AGAIN!! ASAR! I THOUGHT I'M FINE... Well YEAH! I'M FINE! HINDI NA AKO AFFECTED! TANDAAN MO YAN AIRIZA! HINDI KA NA AFFECTED!
Airiza:♫♪And I wonder if I
Ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time♫♪
BOTH CHORUS:♫♪ It's a quarter after one
I'm all alone
And I need you now
Said I wouldn't call
But I've lost all control
And I need you now
And I don't know how
I can do without
I just need you now ♫♪
Remember... Hindi na ako Bitter! Hindi naa!! HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! It's Troy's turn.
Troy:♫♪ Another shot of whiskey
Can't stop looking at the door
Wishing you'd come sweeping
In the way you did before ♫♪
BOTH:♫♪ And I wonder if I
Ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time ♫♪
BOTH CHORUS: ♫♪ It's a quarter after one
I'm a little drunk
And I need you now
Said I wouldn't call
But I've lost all control
And I need you now
And I don't know how
I can do without
I just need you now ♫♪
INSTUMENTAL
BOTH:♫♪ Whoa, whoa
Guess I'd rather hurt
Than feel nothing at all
It's a quarter after one
I'm all alone
And I need you now
And I said I wouldn't call
But I'm a little drunk
And I need you now
And I don't know how
I can do without
I just need you now
I just need you now
Oh baby, I need you now ♫♪
Nagka titigan kami ni Troy after. Kung kaya ko lang sabihin sa kanya na kelangan ko sya ulit, pero hindi. I am moving on. Ayoko na! Aiiiiiiiiiiissssssshhh..
Hindi ko na maintindihan ang feelings ko. Nakaka baliw palang mainlove. Lalo na pag FIRST LOVE kasi as we all know, "First Love Never Dies". Pero may true love naman di ba? How I wish, makita ko na ang True Love ko, or maybe he's just around pero hindi ko makita. :/
