I was sitting on Jessica's couch while hearing loud music from outside. May party siya ngayon dahil pasado kami at naka-graduate na, she hosted a party to celebrate. I didn't want people to see me kasi I can feel their accussing stares at me. I know I messed up kaso hindi ko lang naman napigilan ang emosyon ko.
"Hey." His voice echoed through my ears. "Bored ka ba?"
"Konti." I answered.
"Want to listen to some music? I can play you a song." My face lit up pero sana hindi niya nahalata. Jonas is a great singer, maybe it's also a reason why I fell for him back then. "By your expression, I'm guessing you'd like that."
Binuhat niya ako papunta sa taas, inside his room. Kinabahan bigla ang katawan ko kaya noong nilapag niya ako sa kama ay umimik ako.
"Uhh...maybe sing for me another time. Baka hanapin ako ni Jessica-."
"I won't do anything, Karie. Kakantahan lang kita and that's it." Nanahimik na lang ako at hinintay siya. May mga kumukuloskus na bagay na inaayos niya ata. I heard him strum a few strings then whisppered.
"I hope you like it." He said.
He was strumming on his guitar a beautiful tone. I waited him to sing a song. Kenny Rogers pala ah.
I can't remember when you weren't there
When I didn't care for anyone but you
I swear we've been through everything there is
Can't imagine anything we've missed
Can't imagine anything the two of us can't do
He sang the first verse, I smiled at him kasi ang ganda ng kanta na napili niya. I loved singing that with Papa.
Through the years
You've never let me down
You turned my life around
The sweetest days I've found
I've found with you
Through the years
I've never been afraid
I've loved the life we've made
And I'm so glad I've stayed
Right here with you
Through the years
I can't remember what I used to do
Who I trusted, whom I listened to before
I swear you've taught me everything I know
Can't imagine needing someone so
But through the years it seems to me
I need you more and more
Through the years
Through all the good and bad
I know how much we had
I've always been so glad
To be with you
Through the years
It's better everyday
You've kissed my tears away
As long as it's okay
I'll stay with you
Through the years
Sinasabayan ko na ang pag-kanta niya pero mahina lang.
Through the years
When everything went wrong
Together we were strong
I know that I belonged
Right here with you
Through the years
I've never had a doubt
We'd always work things out
I've learned what life's about
By loving you
Through the years
Through the years
You've never let me down
You turned my life around
The sweetest days I've found
I've found with you
Through the years
It's better every day
You've kissed my tears away
As long as it's okay
I'll stay with you
Through the years.
Pag-tapos niya sa kanta na iyon. I was smiling when I felt him kiss my lips. Hindi ako nakagalaw sa nangyari, it wasn't what I was expecting. Akala ko ay kakanta ulit siya. He let go and naluluha na ako.
"Don't cry, Ka. Don't cry." He wipped off my tear then kissed my forehead. "Takot ako pero ayaw kong matakot pa. I know I've been a horrible person to you but can we be friends again? I miss hanging out with you." Akala ko gusto niya ako? Baka nananaginip lang ako noon.
"Why would you want to be friends with a girl like me? Wala akong makita at nag-drugs ako noon."
"Noon. Ngayon hindi na, Karie don't say that. Gusto kitang maging kaibigan kasi ang saya mong kasama and that kiss is a peace offering."
"Ang bongga mong mag-bigay ng peace offering ah?" Peace offering? Kiss? Really, Johnson?
"Kasi sobrang sama ng trato ko sa'yo noon. Sana ngayon matanggap mo ako bilang kaibigan. Please?" Tumango ako.
"Only if we drink!" Hindi ata niya alam, hehe, I'm an alcoholic. Lagi kaming umiinom ni Papa noon dahil madalas ang celebrations sa amin.
"Aren't you-?"
"Oo bakit?" Young? Duh! "Sanay na ako. Tara na kasi!"
