Sunset of Times

Cole.

"My car's on the way. Manager said let's wait for her."

I scrunched my nose and sat on my luggage. Bigla akong tinulak ni Enzo at inagaw saakin ang pwesto. I stood up and pushed him again pero nag matigas talaga siya. Ako ang nauna! And this is my luggage, he can sit on his own luggage!

"Cole, Enzo, that's enough." Biglang suway ni Axel kaya tumigil na kami. Binatukan ko si Enzo at tumawa lang siya saakin.

There's Rei, standing beside Luke. Wearing a earphones and surely is listening to a music. We have a lot of things to carry. I have my guitar, Enzo's guitar is with him too and so does Rei. Swerte nga ni Luke at Axel dahil dala dala na ng truck ang mga instruments nila.

"Sumakit sana pwet mo," Sabi ko kay Enzo pero nilabas lang niya ang dila siya saakin.

Napalinga linga ako sa paligid. The airport is a bit messy but not really messy... May mga paalis, may mga dumating tulad namin. Huh, Silay is a busy province eh? Or maybe nagkataon lang na may mga dayo ang pumunta dito... Are they our fans? Because for sure Manager released an announcement back in Manila...

My eyes suddenly went to a girl who's style is different. Back in Manila, the girls are good at dressing. Some dress like a popstar, some dress comfortably, some dress neat and tidy. But most of them, really dress up even by just staying at home.

But my brows met when this girl just wore a simple clothes. May kausap siyang tatlong tao na mukhang aalis na dahil may dala dala silang bagahe.

With her white glowing skin, she was standing there like she lights up the bright place. Stunning, simply looking stunning. With that simple white shirt that has small white flowers design on it, her long light pink skirt below the knee paired with sandals, and her braided her... Kakaiba ang datingan ng babaeng iyon.

Bigla akong natulala at napahawak sa dibdib ko lalo na't nakita ko siyang ngumiti. Tumagilid pa ang lingon niya dahilan kung bakit mas nakita ko ang mukha niya. Wow, she's beautiful...

"Calie! Tara na!"

The boy called her and later on, she went inside the car and left the place. Nasundan ko pa sila ng tingin hanggang sa tuluyan na silang nakalayo.

I suddenly smiled out of the blue. Huminga ako ng malalim and felt flattered for no reason at all.

Who is she? Why did I suddenly felt this kind of feelings for the first time?

"Andrei! Take out some food for us. I'm too tired and jetlagged pa ako!"

Kakadating lang namin ng hotel, and it's obviously tiring pero kaya lang naman. Just like Luke, nahihilo parin ako galing sa eroplano.

"Luke, do you think Andrei's not jetlagged too? Maybe we can call for a service? I'm sure this hotel gives one. Obviously," Sagot ni Axel. Tsk, Daddy Axel.

"I'm craving for lutong bahay lang! I'm sure there's some karinderya or maybe small restaurants here. Mag take out ka na lang Rei, please?" Sabi naman Luke pero isang batok ang natanggap niya kay Enzo

"Hoy Luke! Mukha bang alam ni Rei itong lugar na ito?! Papalabasin mo ng hotel tapos paano kung mawala si Rei? Tangina, ito, walang utak!"

Napatigil ako sa ginagawa ko saka pabirong tinulak si Enzo, "Hoy meron kaya iyan utak... Wala nga lang laman!" I said and then we both laughed.

Walang nagawa si Rei, he left without saying anything. As usual, he doesn't talk that much only if you talk first. Pero magaling iyang leader, idol ko nga eh. Joke.
