Success 

"My music is only yours." 

I remember Marco saying it to me when we are talking about him writing me a song. He said that all of the song he will write is only for me. He said that like he is already sure that all of the music he will make is only for me. I hold onto that but what happen now? Where is he? 

Where is he while I am here standing in front of everyone who go here to see me. All I can do is to hope that he can be one of those people but who am I kidding. Why would he go when this dream of mine is the reason why I make him feel alone again. 

Dahil sa pangarap na napili ko pinaramdam ko na naman kay Marco na nag-iisa siya. Hindi na dapat ako umasa na isa siya sa mga taong sumisigaw at nag-aantay na umpisahan ko ang pag-kanta. Nandito ako sa harap ng lahat ngayon kapalit ng pagkawala ni Marco sa buhay ko. 

My first song is the song that Marco wrote for me. Yun ang napili ko na maging intro ng first concert ko and the last song will be the song I wrote thinking about him. When I start singing the first verse, I can already feel my eyes sting, trying not to cry. 

Habang nakatayo ako dito at mic stand ang nasa harap ko, it's making me remember how Tito dream to saw me in here. How he dream to see me in the spotlight with a mic stand in front of me. 

This dream I am achieving is my everything kaya dumating yung point na mas pinili ko na lang ang pangarap ko kaysa ang pahalagahan ang kung anong meron kami ni Marco. While achieving my dream I forgot that Marco is there. Nakalimutan ko na dadating din yung mga araw na kakailanganin niya ako. 

He is always there for me but I failed to do it to him at that moment. I regret that so much. Hindi ko din inakalang yun ang magagawa ko habang tintupad yung pangarap na iniisip ko na para sa'min ni Marco. 

"I got save, thanks to you." I said to everyone after I finish the song kaya napuno ng sigawan ang concert venue. Habang nakikinig sa sigawan nila at ang pagbukas ng ilaw making me saw them all I can feel tears falling in my eyes. 

When I look around I see my family waving their hands at me and my brother even have a flower holding on his hands habang pumapalakpak sa'kin at maganda ang ngiti. I can clearly see them dahil nasa unahan sila kung nasaan din sila Tita Olivia at Oliver pati na din yung mga kaibigan ko na kumakaway at sumisigaw pa, I even saw Kairi wiping her tears kasama din doon yung iba pang VIP guest kung nasaan sila. 

"Hi, I'm Zemira Ember Velasco, it was nice seeing you all here." I said after getting the mic on the mic stand. Nagsigawan naman sila bilang sagot sa'kin kaya natawa na lang ako not minding the tears on my face. 

I have guest that will perform while I am changing. I really give my everything for this first concert kaya dalawang buwan pa lang bago ang concert naghahanda na agad ako because I don't want to create any mistake and I want to give everything I can give for this. 

After this concert kasi I will take a little break to focus on my study because I will be third year next school year. They give me a break because they know that I really give my best all this years since I started. 

The concert keep going at nakailang palit din ako ng damit. I am glad that I learn how to dance dahil kung talagang pagkanta lang ang alam ko baka pagsawaan na ako ng lahat. I also want to try acting because it look fun pero hindi ko naman kailangan ng matinding role. I just really want to try it also musical. 

"Now for the fun part of this concert at para makapagpahinga na din naman ang ating star na si Zemira, let's play a little game." Riana said. She is a famous vlogger and host.
