The next day I wore a long sleeved top just to hide my cut. I also busied myself with random things just to distance myself from them. I don't want them to know about what I did. I know I can handle it myself.

And because everyone was busy no one noticed and no one asked me. Or so I thought.

Dahil nang uwian na ay nilapitan ako ni Kylo.

"You're not answering my calls"

" I was busy"

"Wh--"

"I have to go I'm sorry"

I immediately get into our car. And when I came home I felt so lonely again. The fear and pain consumed me the whole night. But unlike yesterday I fight the urge to cut my wrist again and the thirstiness to see my own blood.

Mabigat man ang pakiramdam ay kinailangan Kong bumangon kinaumagahan.

I wore a Jagger and a white shirt partnered with white rubber shoes, I also wore a wrist band to hide my cut. I don't usually used such but I think I need it. I also bring my own guitar and then I'm good to go.

But aside from that I had to wear my daily mask. My smile.

When I arrived at school dumiretso ako sa booth para makatulong doon. I saw how kylo's forehead creased when he saw me. Bumaba ang tingin niya sa wrist ko which I immediately hide behind me.

He didn't bother to talk to me, maybe he knew that I need personal space. I appreciate it though. My friends as well didn't bother to ask me, because there's no need. They already knew that I'm not ok.

I was anxious the whole day because I'm worrying about my performance. Kylo and I were not on the good shape now. So I'm nervous he might not show up later.

Ilang minuto na lang ang natitira ay wala pa siya. The door on the backstage open and I expect it to be Kylo. But, it was Uno instead.

He went near me and hug me.

"Galingan mo ah, I'm so proud of you"

"Thank you Uno"

Bumitaw ako sa kaniya nang tawagin ang pangalan ko. I entered the stage. Alone.

I sat down and tested the mic as well as the guitar.

I was so nervous. I look around and saw a lot of people. I saw my friends in front they're all smiling at me. I smiled back at them. I didn't saw Kylo.

My hands were shaking as I started strumming my guitar.

"Don't the water grow the trees?
Don't the moon pull the tide?
Don't the stars light the sky?"

I started singing despite of all the nervousness I feel. It will be done soon.

I was about to sing the next line when someone from my behind sang it.

"Like you need to light my life
If you need me anytime
You know, I'm always right by your side
See, I've never felt this love
You're the only thing that's on my mind",

It was Kylo. He came. The audience was in awe. They didn't expect this, and me either. He's walking towards me while intently looking into my eyes.

"You don't understand how much you really mean to me
I need you in my life
You're my necessity"

He continued singing while I'm still strumming. His voice was filled with so much emotion.

"But believe me that you're everything
That just makes my world complete
My love is clear, the only thing that I'll ever see"
