Dreams Come True (Fangirl Syndrome Series)

Chapter 3

Mica's POV:

"In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
In this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you feel
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
In the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here"

Heto ako ngayon,  nasa kwarto ko, nakakulong.  Well ganito ako pag weekend, mag-isa sa kwarto at di lumalabas ng bahay. Well, I sometimes having hang-out with friends but I always prefer to be here at my room.

It's because I'm doing cover songs of my favorite artists especially Erik Santos. Before,  I was doing cover from my favorite OPM artists. But when my father died, I started, doing covers of Westlife. That's because I sang one of their songs in his burial. And even Kuya Ryan sang their song that time.

This is my 26th cover song from Westlife. I've been doing this for seven months. However, I'd stopped doing that for two weeks due to my break-up with Kenneth. Singing Westlife songs helped me recovered to my father's death. And I think it will help me to move on too.

Here's the lists of Westlife songs that I covered in particular order:

1. Flying Without Wings
2. You Raise Me Up
3. Seasons In The Sun
4. My Love
5. Close
6. Close Your Eyes
7. To Be Loved
8. Written In The Stars
9. Swear It Again
10. If I Let You Go
11. Bop Bop Baby
12. World Of Our Own
13. Unbreakable
14. Every Little Thing You Do
15. Fool Again
16. If Your Heart's Not In It
17. Why Do I Love You
18. Don't Get Me Wrong
19. Don't Let Me Go
20. I Cry
21. Love Crime
22. What I Want Is What I Got
23. Try Again
24. I Have A Dream
25. What Becomes Of The Brokenhearted

And this made the song Angel to be my 26th cover from Westlife. And I'm also planning of making a lyrical dance of this song as well. But for now, I just made my own piano version of this soulful ballad.

And if you notice, my covers are connected on my personal experiences. The first seven songs that I covered are dedicated to my father. The next seven songs are just random selections, and they are requested by my friends and avid viewers. However, I stopped doing covers by two weeks due to my break-up with Kenneth.

I continued doing Westlife covers. The next seven songs that I covered are the heartbreaking ones. As I sing those songs, I sometimes just can't help but to cry. But this past few weeks, I started singing Westlife songs that could inspire me to move on from that painful break-up.

And now, I'm uploading the video on my YouTube account named MicaRae (I got Rae from my big brother's other nickname) that I made after editing it. And then nag-update na rin ako sa mga social media accounts ko about my latest cover. ('Kala mo artista no? 😁)

At kung tinatanong nyo kung nakaka-ilang views ang mga covers ko, nakaka-100,000 views naman ako. Puro mga 6-digit numbers ang "views" ng mga covers ko. But the most viewed video that I have is my first cover (Flying Without Wings). Pa'no naman, binuhos ko ang lahat ng emotion ko sa kantang yon because I dedicate that song to my late father. Kaya bumuhos din ng "views" ang cover ko na yon. And as of this moment, it has more than one million views already.

"Oh da bop bop baby
Please, don't let me go
Can't live my life this way"

Oh my! My phone is ringing! I answer that call quickly.

"Hello, Mica."

It's Trisha! Ano kayang itinawag ng babaeng ito? Siguradong gagala na naman ang babaeng ito. Sa aming apat siya ang pinaka-gala sa amin. Madalas nasa mall, minsan nasa bar.  Pero mula nung may nangyaring masama sa akin, di na kami pumupunta ng bar. Sa mall at cafè na lang kami lumalabas.

"Hello, Trisha, napatawag ka", I said.

"Yes, free ka ba ngayon? Nasa mall ako ngayon kasama sina Ayah at Bunny. Baka gusto mong humabol."
