Sabrina Jasmin Delvan


Today is the foundation day, I prepared the dress that I'm going to wear during the performance. Clay and I agreed to wear black.

After taking a bath I put on some makeup and dress up.

As I went down the stairs I was in awe to see Clay leaning her back with hands crossed outside her car. She is wearing a black velvet button-down shirt paired with black pants and ankle boots. She looks exquisite.

"Hi," she said while holding her nape.

"Hey! You look good" I commented.

"You too! I mean, you look so beautiful Sab. So damn beautiful with that black velvet dress you are wearing"

"Thank you!" As I felt my cheeks getting red with her words.

We arrived at the university and everyone's eyes are on us. Some even took pictures of us

"Foundation day lang naman 'to, bakit naman ang gara gara ng suot niyo? Dapat sinabi niyo na ganyan pala susuotin niyo eh di sana nag lagay pa kami ng red carpet." Jakey said and laughed

"Mare, magtira ka naman samin. Hakot award ka naman dyan" It was Milly

"Hakot award?" I asked her

"Oo! Lahat ng tao dito may gusto na sa'yo. Pati kay Clay. Hindi lang nila alam na ano kayo dat— Awww aray naman mare"

I stopped her right away by softly striking her back and I rolled my eyes at her.


We are now called backstage to prepare for the performance.

"Are you nervous? You are pacing back and forth" Clay asked.

I just nodded in response.

My hands are trembling right now. It's not my first time singing in front of people but I think it's the fact that I'm performing with her is the reason for this agitation.

I think she saw my hands trembling because I just felt her hands clasped with mine. And yes, with all honesty, it made me calm so I just let it be.

"And now from the Business Ad department, please put your hands together for Clay Milfort and Sabrina Delvan!" I heard the host call the both of us and the people went wild.

She sat in front of the piano while I stood in the middle and started singing.


Song: Boo'd Up - Ella Mai


Head over heels in love

Right in front of you, ain't gotta look no more baby

I wanna build this love

And everything you want, you ain't gotta ask for

You got me boo'd up, boo'd up

Boo'd up, boo'd up

Told you from the jump I'm the one to choose ya

Got me boo'd up, boo'd up

Boo'd up, boo'd up

Grab me by the waist, baby, pull me closer

Ooh, no I'll never get over you until I find something new

That get me high like you do, yeah yeah

Ooh, no I'll never get over you until I find something new

That get me high like you do

After the song, I was about to turn around when the host speaks again, "thank you so much, Sabrina! Beauty with talent? Yes to that!"

Then she continued, "I believe Clay will sing one song too. Can you hold the mic for her while she plays the piano and sings?"

I was shocked but just nodded in response.


Song: Without you - Charlie Wilson


It feels like a lifetime, a thousand days have passed by

Since I held you close to me

If I could see that smile from my friend

I know that I could live again

I need you here with me

Heaven knows what to say

Even though for right now you're so far away

I hope and I pray

Somewhere in your heart I'll always stay

Girl, lately my sun doesn't shine without you

Never noticed what it feels like to be without you

Feels like I took my last step and my last breath in

my life ending

Had to say just what I was feeling, girl

Cause my sun doesn't shine, sun doesn't shine without you

This is more for me than for you

Girl, I finally see there's no substitute

For what we have

Do you know how much I love you

Heaven knows what to say

Even though for right now you're so far away

Gonna tell you and show you

Do whatever I can do to get back to you

Girl, lately my sun doesn't shine without you

Never noticed what it feels like to be without you

Feels like I took my last step and my last breath in

my life ending

Had to say just what I was feeling, girl

Cause my sun doesn't shine, sun doesn't shine

without you


She sang the whole song while looking at me as I held the mic for her as if she is telling me the whole lyrics of the song. I was just there sitting as my heart was pounding violently.

As I heard the audience applause, I stood up and leave right away.

I walked briskly as I make my way out but I felt someone grab my wrist.

"Sab, please let's talk. Please, baby, let's talk"
