"Dashianna, auntie Lucy called me kanina and she says that we will have a dinner in their house at 6 pm." he said while slicing his pancake with honey syrup.

"I will call her nalang later pagtapos natin kumain. Magpapaalam din ako sa kanya para Di siya magalala." sabi ko sa kanya.

We spent the day together while doing our office stuff. It's Saturday but both of us need to work with some papers pa rin. When I check my wristwatch it's already 5:30 in the afternoon and we need to ready na. Actually ako lang kasi si nico ready na umalis kasi ba naman umuwi na siya ng bahay niya kaninang tanghali and then he took a shower, dressed up and back here at my house.

"Nico I will take a bath na para makapunta na tayo to auntie Lucy's house." sabi ko habang naglalakad papuntang kwarto. My house is like wide and its only one floor. When you open the door you will see my kitchen at the right side and to the left side are the side of sala and two rooms.
This house is pretty wide for a one person but unfortunately nico is always here so wala rin.

Umalis agad kami pagtapos kong maligo kaya saktong 6pm ay nandito na kami sa bahay nila auntie Lucy.

"Hi auntie! I've missed you. I'm sorry Di na ako masyadong nakakapunta dito coz I'm too busy na kasi." sabi ko habang naglalakad papunta sa direksyon niya. I helped her to set up our dinner. She cooked my favorite adobo. Hay it's really really tastes sweet but with the little sour. In short, perfect!

" Auntie I forgot to mention I will be going to the Philippines next week." I said while trying to eat the leg part of the chicken. Nico in the other side is also quite coz of the fried chicken his favorite.

"oh yeah, your tita grace mention it last night when she called me." she said while starting at me.

Before we leave her house I ask where is her daughter but she said that her daughter will have a overnight to the house of her classmate. So I just nodded to her. And then said.

" Dash I know that you've said that your doing great to move on about your past. But also I know it's still hard for you to face him but it's just my opinion ha try to talk to him and let him explain his side. Syempre masakit din para sa kanya yun na bigla ka nalang umalis at Di nagpakita. Its for your own good anak. " she said to me while holding my hands.

"Yes tita I think it's time na for her na harapin niya yung past niya at kung sakaling maganda ang result nun malay mo kung anong epekto sayo nun." sabat ni Nico sa tabi ni auntie.

I just nodded to them. I don't know kung ano isasagot ko sa kanila. I know tama sila pero hindi ko pa kaya mentally but physically yes kaya ko na. Pero kasi pagnakita ko baka bumalik lahat at ayaw ko na nun.

" I know it's hard but I'm always be here well actually hindi lang kundi marami kaming nasa likod mo dash and we still support you no matter what will happen. Right nico?" sabi niya at sabay harap kay nico na bigla niyang kinagulat.

"oum always tita." he said.

Kahit makulit at isip bata minsan si nico, I will be always thankful to him coz he helps me to  adjust, he also supports me no matter what happens to me, and for being my comfort when I need it. For the several years, I might say the girl whose will be his wife is a big lucky coz he's really responsible and respectful in terms of everything.

"I will auntie." mailing sagot ko sa kanya. Pagkatapos magusap ay umalis na kami ni nico sa bahay nila auntie.

"want some drinks?" nico questioned me. I think I really need that para makatulog ako.

"yeah one please." sagot ko sa kanya sa bahay umupo sa veranda ng bahay ko. At sabay abot sakin ng bote ng alak.

"I think auntie Lucy is right. We want you to become better and forgive those people who used to hurt you." sabi niya sabay yuko at pitas sa mga grass.

Samantalang ako heto napainom nalang kahit sobrang pait ng alak na ito ay parang tubig lang nadumaloy sa aking lalamunan ito ngayon gabi. Unti Unti na namang naalala yung gabi kong saan ko nasaksihan yung pagtataksil sakin ng aking boyfriend.

People though that our story will be having a great ending but no they're all wrong. Kahit anong perfect ng relasyon kapag may nagloko at nagkulang ay papalya ito.

FLASHBACK

"Dash where are you na? Need ka na dito sa stage ikaw na yung next na magperperform." natatarantang sabi ni Bella. It's the start of foundation week and I was ordered by one of my Professor to perform to the event. I didn't agree first because that week I also have a taekwondo training and also a taekwondo competition but my professor is so mapilit at binigyan niya ako ng mga oras at day kung kelan lang ako magperperform. After I said yes dahil wala akong magawa.

"yes nasa comfort room lang ako nag-aayos Bella. I will be there any minute."sabi ko na parang wala lang. I don't feel nervous at all kasi I used to sing since I was a kid and I always used sing in a crowded places. And now I am college student na actually 3rd year yakang yaka ko na to.

This day I will only sing a three song and after that tapos na and another band naman ang magperperform.

When I step in the stage I saw some people also in the stage waiting for me to go to my spot. They're already holding their own instruments and also me. I was just holding my old acoustic guitar while walking to reach my spot. When I reached it I already saw some banner from my friend its says
"Go dashyy!! We're proud of you!" banner na hawak ni ally. While Bella and the girls itinataas pa yung banner na gawa nila it says
"Dashianna Kaye Lacerna yung name nung kumakanta. She is single wala ka nang hahanapin pa. Ikaw nalang k kulang!"

Ahhh kairita so nung nakita kong medyo marami ng tao ay nagmic test na ako at kinausap ko na mga kasama ko sa likod.

"Good afternoon po sir and ma'am yung first song po isang Wag na wag mong Sasabihin by kitchie Nadal. Thank you po. Sabi ko sabay punta ulit sa spot ko. Mayamaya ay narinig ko na silang magsimula kaya nagstrum na ako ng first opening chords ko.

May gusto ka bang sabihin
Ba't di mapakali
Ni hindi makatingin
Sana'y wag mo na 'tong palipasin
At subukang lutasin
Sa mga isinabi mo na
Iba ang nararapat sa akin
Na tunay kong mamahalin

I just closed my eyes when I started to sing I just feel the song. Some people ask me what is my secret to sing beautifully I just immediately answer just feel the lyrics and the sound of the song.

Ohhhhh
Wag na wag mong sasabihin
Na hindi mo nadama itong
Pag-ibig kong handang ibigay kahit pa kalayaan mo

After that I slowly open my eyes and see the how many people are sitting and listening in the field of our campus. I saw my friends smiling at me and keep showing their homemade banner for me.
After I finished the three song I immediately go to the field cause I want to be with my friends.

After I saw them I thought that they got already a new friend which is a lot boys. Oh my ghad napapalibutan na sila ng boys talaga tuwang tuwa pa ang mga gaga.

"Hi guys!" bati ko sa kanilang lahat na may ngiti sa mga labi ko kahit naiirita na ako. Sino ba naman ang hindi maiirita kung napapalibutan kami ng boys. I'm not a typical girl that will go crazy when I see some boys. I admit that they all have looks pero ano na mahirap na.

"Dash right timing! Dash this is Jake and Jake this dash the one who sang there."sabi ni Bella sabay tyro dun sa stage.

That was the first encountered when we saw each other.
