I Fell In Love With A Kiss Stealer

Chapter 39

Chapter 39

"There I was again tonight
Forcing laughter, faking smiles
Same old tired, lonely place"

Hindi na din napigilan ni Jinx na kumanta dahil sa may halong alak ang iniinom nila at kahit labag sa kalooban n'ya, nagawa pa din niyang kumanta ng tama.

"Nasasaktan!!!"

Boses lamang nila ang maririnig sa loob ng bahay, dahil na rin sa nag-aasikaso sa baba ang katulong at yung ibang tao sa bahay ay nasa labas.

Napapangiti nalang si manang ng marinig niya ang boses ni Jinx na kumakanta kahit di niya maintindihan ang nararamdaman niya sa pagkanta ng alaga niya.

"This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home

I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you"

Jinx felt her heart tightened and the image of him suddenly appeared right in front of her eyes.

"The lingering question kept me up
2 AM, who do you love?
I wonder 'til I'm wide awake
And now I'm pacing back and forth
Wishing you were at my door
I'd open up and you would say, "Hey"

It was enchanting to meet you
All I know is, I was enchanted to meet you"

Yamara and Talia could feel everything in her voice and somehow, they understood her.

"Bakit nga ba ito pinakanta natin?" Tanong ni Yamara at parang natatakot ito, "Pinili niya diba?"

Kinuha na lamang ni Talia ang mikropono at sumabay kay Jinx na siyang ginaya ni Yamara. Alintana na kanina pa nirerecord ni Talia ang pagkanta ni Jinx.

Ngayon lang kasi nila narinig na kumanta ito at gusto niya i-send kina Xen.

"This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
That this night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you"

Unti-unti nang pumatak ang luha sa mata ni Jinx kasabay ng pagyuko nito. Walang magawa yung dalawa kundi sabayan ito. Maya-maya pa talagang bumirit na ito habang may luha.

Hindi nila alam kung ano dapat gawin sa kaibigan nilang sawi at lasing.

"Hindi naman siguro magagalit sa'kin si Tito kung madadatnan niyang gan'yan si Jinx?"

"This is me praying that
This was the very first page
Not where the story line ends
My thoughts will echo your name, until I see you again
These are the words I held back, as I was leaving too soon
I was enchanted to meet you"

Huminto ito at tuluyang bumagsak sa sahig habang lumuluha.

"Gagi, masakit pa din." Sabi nito sa mic sabay tingin kina Yamara.

Kitang kita nila sa mukha ng kaibigan ang sakit.

"Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you"

Mali na nga ang naging lyrics ni Jinx dahil yang mga linya na yan na lamang ang sinasabi niya kahit na tapos na ang kanta inuulit na lamang niya.

Walang magawa sina Talia kundi hugutin ang mic sakan'ya sabay painom ng tubig.
