As Marion and myself headed to the backstage, I was singing domino. "Rock my world into the sunlight, make this dream the best I've ever known." "Dirty dancing in the moonlight!" Marion continued, and we both sang "Take me down like I'm a domino!" We were laughing at each other. Suddenly, Darren approached us.

"Hey guys!" he said.

"Ay kabayo!" I exclaimed.

I was literally shocked by his presence. I was speechless. I didn't know how to start a conversation with him.

"Uhm, hi? What's your name?" I asked Darren.

"Pakipot ka pa, sinabi na nga yung pangalan kanina," Marion whispered.

"I'm Darren. And you are?" he answered.

"My name is Anjanette. Anjanette Geronimo," I responded.

Marion was just standing beside me looking back and forth at who was talking, while Darren was in front of us.

"Nice name! And Geronimo? Are you related to coach Sarah in any way?" he asked.

"Well, she's my dad's sister, so yeah," I answered.

He was gonna say something but somebody interrupted him from talking.

"Uh, Darren! We have to go now! We have a reservation at the restaurant!" a woman from the back shouted.

"Okay tita, I'm coming!" he answered.

"Sorry, An..."

"Anjanette," Marion said while nodding.

"Hehe. Sorry Anjanette, but I have to go," he explained.

"Don't be sorry! It's absolutely alright! We need to go as well anyways. We need to watch more performances on the stage," I responded.

Before he left, Darren, Marion, and I exchanged phone numbers. After that, Marion and I went back inside the stage.
