💫: SHOOTING STARS


-----


After what happened, Aiden didn't contact me. It's been a month if I'm not mistaken. I sighed.


"Malalim na naman ang iniisip mo?" Xi interrupted me.


"Okay! Back to top!" Sejun shouted on their practice.


"Break time!" Justin shouted. Sejun looked at him like Justin do something bad. I laughed at them.


"Sige na nga! 10 minutes lang ha!"


Kaagad namang nagtakbuhan papunta sa pwesto ko ang apat, leaving Pablo on the floor. Kanya-kanyang kuha ng bottled water ang apat bago umupo sa sahig para magpahinga.


"One day left, shoot na ng music video ninyo!" I cheered them. Nakita kong umupo sa tabi ni Xi si Josh bago ito kinausap.


"Nandoon kayo ano?" Ken asked. Stell's eyes looked at me, teasing. I just nodded on Ken while checking on the iPad for the schedules.


"Gusto ko, si Kly magluluto ng lunch." Stell said habang sumasayaw-sayaw sa harapan ng mirror nila.


"Hindi mangyayari 'yon. Marami tayo sa set n'on. Tsaka hindi ko na rin maiintindi 'yon." sabi ko tsaka tumayo para magsulat sa white board. Naramdaman kong sumunod si Ken sa akin. Nakita kong ngumiti siya sa akin bago nagsalita.


"Kamusta na?"


"Ayos lang. Tuloy pa rin ang buhay." I smiled.


"That's good. Tell me something if that bastard do something on you again." He said. I looked at him and laughed.


"Look, hindi na nga niya ako kinakausap after what happened."


"Then are you done?"


"No." I said, wearing a dry smile. I see his eyes staring at me like it's ripping my own soul.


"Okay. Just tell me, okay?" He said and left me. Nakita kong nakatingin sa akin si Xi at Josh bago nag-usap na parang wala silang nakita. Napa-buntong hininga na lang ako bago bumalik sa pwesto ko.


Kaagad na nag-practice ang lima sa kanilang dance routine. It's already 4 pm when they call it a day. I was about to leave in the office when someone call me. Nakita kong tumingin si Xi sa phone ko bago ko sinagot 'yon.


"Aiden..." Nakita kong tumitig si Xi sa akin bago umiling.


"Can we meet up?" He asked.


"S-sure. Nandito pa naman ako sa office."


"Great! I'll be there in a minute!" I ended the call, not waiting for him to speak up. Lumapit ako kay Xi bago siya kinausap.
