You don't have a say on this
After praying and wishing our Co-performers eh nag proceed na sila sa kani-kanilang number. River and I will be the last one to perform. We were vocalizing to stretch our voices dahil matataas pa naman ang mga kanta ni Bruno Mars. River's range is wide, same as me. We can sing low notes and high notes.
"You really have a great voice." Sabi niya. "Sakto talaga na nagbanggaan tayo kanina eh, who knows na magduduet tayo ngayon." Patuloy nito.
"You have a great voice too. You're a rising star after all. At baka mamaya eh isa ka na sa top singers dito sa bansa" Sabi ko na ikinangiti niya.
"I never saw myself in the spotlight before. All I want is to continue the business of my parents kaya business ang inaaral ko. I was just singing in one of the classrooms here before when someone noticed me and told me I have potential being a star someday." Mahabang lintaya nito.
"I love music since I was a kid naman, but I wanted to be a doctor kaya Bio ako. Also, I wanted to at least help in our business kaya pag nag med siguro ako eh MD/MBA ang kukunin para kahit papa'no eh may konting alam ako sa business."
"That's good." Aniya at natawa na lang kami nito. We got close in a short spun of time, parang kilala na namin ang isat-isa.
After a while, ilang performances na lang ang gaganapin bago kami. So we had our retouch again at sinuot na ulit ang mga outfit namin. Una akong lalabas for my song tapos papasok si River habang ako ay ieexit muna sa gilid at papasok din agad kapag mag-i-start na ang 24k Magic at papasok na din ang 7 na nakuha sa audition kanina para maging back-up voice namin dahil kami ni River ang main duet dito.
Its my turn now to sing my solo. Upon entering the stage, I am in shock dahil sa hindi ko inakalang dami ng nanonood. I shrugged first bago binati ang audience. "What's up guys!" bati ko at naghiyawan ang mga ito.
"Do you love Bruno Mars?! Ano ang paborito niyong kanta niya?!" They answered in chorus kaya hindi ko sila maintidihan but at least they responded.
"Tonight, I will sing 'It Will Rain' by Bruno Mars." Sabi ko and the music started.
If you ever leave me, baby
Leave some morphine at my door
'Cause it would take a whole lot of medication
At first kinabahan ako dahil ngayon lang ako nagperform , but when the audience started to sing with me eh nawala na ang kaba ko at naanod na sa ganda ng musika.
'Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same if you walk away
Everyday it'll rain, rain, ra-a-a-ain
Pagkatapos ng solo ko ay naghiwayan ang lahat. "Everyone, please welcome our very own River Ashton Elizalde!" pasigaw kong sabi at mas nadagdagan pa ang sigawan dito.
"What's up Rivers?! Sing with me tonight while 'Talking to the Moon'." Sigaw nito and everybody screamed their lungs out.
I know you're somewhere out there
Somewhere far away
Unang bigkas pa lang ng kanta ay talagang ramdam mo na ang paghanga ng mga tao sa kanya. Who wouldn't like his voice? Sobrang ganda nito. His face looked-like an angel sent from heaven and now his voice is the same too.
At night, when the stars light up my room
I sit by myself
Talking to the moon
