Our Last Dance

Blessings

"I'd swing with you for the fences
Sit with you in the trenches
Give you my wild, give you a child."

"I've stayed away for seven months to put distance between us and yet here I am doing rehearsals for our concert together. So much for staying away." Bamboo muttered to himself. "This woman knows how to play her cards well."

They were inside the rehearsal studio, rehearsing for the upcoming concert. Five days after the release of the tickets it went sold out. Others were already asking for a repeat concert. Viva and Polyeast decided to have a repeat concert at MOA Arena.

"Do you want to do any change with the arrangements of the songs?" Sir Louie asked the two of them.

"Are we allowed to change some lyrics of the song, Louie?" Bamboo asked.

"You can. You two are very good in making adlibs. Hindi na ako magwoworry if inconvenience would occur."

"What about you, Sarah? Do you have any questions?"

"So far, gusto ko ang arrangements sir Louie."

They spent the rest of the day rehearsing the songs.

"By the way, tomorrow is your schedule for the fitting of the outfits. Bang called me earlier, andoon na daw ang mga pagpipilian niyo." Pancho informed the two of them.

"That fast?" He inquired.

"Yes. Para kapag hindi ninyo gusto ang ipapakita niya, may time siya to find new ones." Saad ni Pancho. "The day after tomorrow is the photoshoot for the concert also. You also need to promote sa ASAP sa concert niyo.

"Wait up, Panch." Bamboo raised his hands to stop Pancho from talking.

Tumawa naman si Sarah, alam niya kung paano naiinis si Bamboo kapag madami ipinapagawa dito lalo kapag photoshoot or fittings. He never liked the idea of those things.

"Why don't we eat?" She suggested. "Mukhang gutom na tayo lahat."

"Yes!" Sagot ng mga kasama nila.

"Libre mo, Sars? Tanong ni Pancho.

"Nope, libre ni coach Bamboo. Di'ba coach?"

"What the hell?!" He exclaimed.

"Bibig mo, coach! Tsk tsk! Suplado na kuripot pa. Sige na po, ano po gusto niyo kainin? Libre ko na po." Tiningnan niya si Bamboo ng masama.

"Wait, that's not what I meant, Sarah." Depensa niya sa sarili. He looked at Pancho. "Ask them what they want to eat Panch, it's on me."

"Yeheeey!" Masayang wika ng mga kasama nila.

Tiningnan naman ni Pancho si Bamboo. "What?" Tanong niya dito. Naiiling na ngumiti si Pancho. "Under ka Brod. Isang tingin lang tiklop ka na. Hahaha."

"Whatever, Panch." Umupo siya sa tabi ni Sarah pero as always may isang bangko sa pagitan nila. Their fans called it "AshBoo Distance".

"What do you want to eat?" He asked her tenderly. Ngumiti naman ito sa kanya.
"Cheesecake?" Sagot ni Sarah. Kumunot ang noo niya. "You are not allowed to eat sweets, Sarah." Sumimangot ang dalaga.

"Sir Pancho, ano po gusto nila kainin?"

"Pizza at coffee, Sars. 'Yon din sa'yo?"

"Naku, wag na Sir Pancho puro pizza at pasta na kinakain ni Sarah." Singit ng PA ni Sarah.

"Oo nga pala." Saad ni Pancho.

Bamboo smiled bitterly, his gaze locked on her fingers. Two rings were on them. Then he looked at his finger, empty.
