Hey, notice me

69 ૮₍˶• . • ⑅₎ა

After 5 years...

Crowd noises, everybody's watching and chanting his name. Watching him performing is my happiness. Seeing him smile makes my heart relax. Kapag may mga concert siya ay bumibili agad ako ng ticket para mapanood siya. I don't know if he still knows me. 

"Ganda ng ngiti ah? Let me take you a picture." Princess smiled, siya ang nagsasabi sa'kin kapag may mga concert si Lance. When I said what happened years ago, she just hugged me. "Miss mo na?" 

I lift both of my brows. "Minsan oo, Minsan hindi...pero sa minsan na 'yon mas lamang oo." I smiled, walang taon ang hindi ko siya naiisip. Iniisip ko kung okay na ba siya...kung masaya siya...

Our talk was interrupted by Lance's voice. 

"Let me tell you a story..." he said, which made my heart tug. Walang concert niya ang hindi siya nag-ke-kwento tungkol sa isang bagay na hindi niya makakalimutan. 

After my graduation, I moved to Spain to pursue my career in architecture. Tatlong taon din ako nagtrabaho doon hanggang sa umuwi ako last year...at pagka-uwi ko ay concert niya agad ang pinuntahan ko. Sunod-sunod ang concert niya no'ng nakaraan at pasikat na nang pasikat. 

"I know you guys are tired from hearing this story but this is the best memory I had. I met a girl, she's my fan. Araw-araw niya akong chinachat and I found it interesting. May time siya makipag-chat sa akin hanggang madaling araw. And the time has come...I fell in love with her. I started courting her and within a month, she gave me her sweetest 'yes'. We lasted for two years–"

"Hiwalay na kayo?" Someone shouted. 

Lance shook his head. "No, nagpapahinga lang siya. Alam kong babalik siya sa'kin," nakangiting sabi niya at tila alam na ang mangyayari. "And this song is for her...I won't go home without you because you're my home."

Lahat ay naghiyawan at kinilig sa sinabi niya. Nakasandal lang ako sa upuan at hindi alintana ang mga nagkakagulo niyang mga fans. 

"I asked her to stay but she wouldn't listen

And she left before I had the chance to say, oh

The words that would mend,

The things that were broken

But now it's far too late, she's gone away..." 

I smiled when I heard that song, that was my favorite song. I assume that that's for me. I was caught off guard when Princess shouted. She's pointing at me. Alam kong hindi ako makikita ni Lance pero hinila niya ako at pinatayo. 

And then everything went so slow, slow-mo lahat ang nakikita ko nang magkatagpo ang mga tingin namin. He didn't move a muscle. Hindi niya inalis ang tingin niya sa akin at sa akin nga ang kantang 'to. 

"It's not over tonight

Just give me one more chance to make it right

I may not make it through the night

I won't go home without you." 

Pagkatapos niyang kumanta ay lumabas na ako at hindi na hinintay si Princess. Dumiretso agad ako sa condo ko. He saw me! He freaking saw me! Alam kong alam niya na pumupunta ako sa concert niya. Lagi niyang kinikwento ang naging relasyon namin at kinakanta ang kantang 'yon. 

Ako pa rin ba hanggang ngayon? P-Pero pa'no? I thought after I left, he's going to forget about me. Does he still love me? Umiling ako. no, baka hindi na...
