"Oz! Bilisan mo naman diyan! Daig mo pa ang isang babae kung makapag ayos! Sa bar lang naman tayo pupunta." Reklamo ni Matthew. Sinundo niya ako sa bahay para hindi raw ako tatakas. Wala ba talaga tong tiwala sakin?
"Oo na! Andyan na! Bababa na ako." Tsk! Reklamador -.-
"Matthew, take good care of my son, okay?" Sabi ni mommy. Para naman akong pupunta sa malayong lugar eh sa bar lang naman. And this is my first time going.
"Don't worry tita, you can count on me. I'll make sure he'll have a great time! LET's GOOOOOO!!! TO THEE THE CAR!!" Kinaladkad ako ni Matthew na parang bata.
"Bye Mom! I'll be back!" Pahabol ko. "Have a great time Oz! Bye!" Sigaw ni mommy sabay wave.
Sumakay na kami sa kotse ni Matthew and 15 minutes later .... Nakarating na kami sa bar.
"Welcome to our wonderland, Oz!" Sabay bukas ng pintuan na steel. Sa labas pa nga eh dinig na dinig ko na ang mga ingay at party music, ano pa kaya ang pagpasok. Maybe I should have brought my earplugs.
*TOGS TOGS TOGS TOGS TOGS!!!!!*
"Wooooh!!!! Party Party!!!!" Sigaw nung mga tao. "PUNTAHAN KO MUNA SILA ROLAND! DITO KA LANG OKAY! WAG KANG AALIS DIYAN!" Sigaw ni Matthew sakin.
"ANO?! HINDI KO NARINIG!" Pinat niya yung likod ko at sinabing "HAVE FUN!" Yun lang yung narinig ko at umalis na agad siya.
Anong gagawin ko rito? Wala akong alam sa mga parties. Pupunta na lang ako sa itaas baka makita ko sila roon.
*Bogsh!*
"Sorry." Sabi ko sa nakabangga ko na lalake. Ang weird niya. Nakaitim siya lahat, kalat na kalat ang buhok niya na parang dinaraanan ng bagyo, nakashades ng itim at may mask sa bibig niya. May napansin rin akong suot niya na cross na silver.
Umalis kaagad ang lalake na weirdo. Hindi lang man rin nagsorry. Hindi ko na lang siya pinansin at pumnta na sa itaas. Nakita ko roon sina Matthew.
"Mat!" Tawag ko sa kanya. "Nandito lang pala kayo. Bakit mo naman ako iniwan -.-" sabi ko sa kanya.
"Di ba sabi ko doon ka lang dahil alam kong mawawala ka kapag parati kang sumusunod sakin." Sabi niya. Hmph! Para naman akong hindi nawawala nung iniwan niya ako -.-
"Guys, tayo na! Magsta-start na tayo!" Sabi ni Roland. "Sige. Punta ka na sa front stage Oz para makita mo kami ng harapan." Sabi ni Matthew. "Okay guys! Let's go!!" Sigaw ni Roland.
Tumakbo na sila pababa at ako naman nalakad patungo sa front. Pagdating ko roon, nakita ko na sila, nag-aayos at nagreready. Teka! May drummer na ba sila? I wonder who!
May isang lalake na nakaitim lahat pumunta sa stage at umupo sa drummer's chair.
Wait! Siya yung nakabangga ko kanina ah! Siya yung bagong drummer nila?! Pero, magaling rin ba siya?
He raised his hands holding the drum sticks.
*tick! tick! tick tick tick tick!*
Woah! Ang galing niya! Mas magaling pa sa mga nakita kong bands sa tv.

O0O I'm speechless! Ang galing! Sobrang galing niya. I don't know what to say.
"Wooooooh!!!! Go Wonderland!!" Sigaw ng mga tao. Bumaba na sila isa isa at pumunta sa harap except yung drummer na pumunta sa backstage. Binigyan siya ng pera nung lalake medyo matanda na at kinuha niya ito.
Yun lang? Tapos na? 1 round lang?
"Okay guys! It's time for ...... acoustic music! Please welcome! My cousin Oz!!" Sabay turo sakin. WHAT?!!
