***flashback***

Nandito ako ngayon sa rest house ni Don Francisco dahil nagkaroon ng konting salo-salo at inimbitahan nya kami na i celebrate yung bday nya.

Nakakalungkot nga eh at wala dito yung anak nya, I'm sure na sobrang miss na miss na nya yun, pero hindi naman nya pinabalik dito sa Pilipinas.

"kain lang kayo ha" saad ni Don Francisco sa amin

Nagsayawan at kantahan ang iba at may nag inoman rin. Punong puno ng saya ang buong paligid at naging isang magandang gabi.

"oh Imee kanta na!" saad nya at inabot sakin ang mic pero hindi ko tinanggap. Di naman ako singer no, baka pagkanta ko bumagyo pa hindi kami makauwi

"hindi ako marunong" nakanguso kong tugon na ikinatawa nya

"duet tayo" aya nya
Pinagbigyan ko nalang kasi birthday naman nya. At ang sinelect na song, Two Less Lonely People In The World.
Favorite nya daw eh.

I was down my dreams were wearing thin
When you're lost where do you begin
My heart always seemed to drift from day to day
Looking for the love that never came my way
Then you smiled and i reached out to you
I could tell you were lonely too
One look then it all began for you and me
The moment that we touched i knew that there would be

Tinaas nya ang isa nyang kamay habang kumakanta at sinabayan naman sya ng ibang tauhan.

Two less lonely people in the world
And it's gonna be fine
Out of all the people in the world
I just can't believe you're mine
In my life where everything was wrong
Something finally went right
Now there's two less lonely people
In the world tonight

Humunto muna ako at hinayaan ko muna syang kumanta. Grabe naman kasi boses ko. Nakakahiya talaga.

Just to think what i might have missed
Looking back how did i exist
I dreamed, still i never thought i'd come this far
But miracles come true, i know 'cause here we are

Umakbay si Don Francisco sakin senyas na sabay na kaming kakanta. Halos lahat na ng tao dito sumasabay na rin samin at para kaming nag coconcert.

Two less lonely people in the world
And it's gonna be fine
Out of all the people in the world
I just can't believe you're mine
In my life where everything was wrong
Something finally went right
Now there's two less lonely people
In the world tonight

Natapos nalang yung kanta pero nag select ulit si Don Francisco pero sa oras na ito, umayaw na ako. Nakakahiya talaga at buti nalang, hindi ko alam yung kanta.

Umabot kami hanggang ala una ng hating gabi. Nagsiuwian na yung iba pero nandito parin ako at tumulong sa pagliligpit.

"iwan mo na lang yan Imee, sila na maglilinis" sambit nya

"okay la po, tutulongan ko nalang para malinis kaagad" sagot ko.
Umupo lang muna si Don Francisco kasama sila mama at nagusap. Matapos kong maglinis ay lumapit na ako sa kanila at nagpaalam na umuwi na.

"maraming salamat sa pagdalo nyo, kahit papano nag enjoy tayo" saad ni Don Francisco at bahagyang tumawa

"salamat rin po sir" tugon nila mama at papa

Dahan-dahan kaming lumakad patungo sa gate at sumabay naman sa amin si Don.

"maraming salamat hija, buti nakapunta ka, siguro kung wala ka hindi masaya yung celebrate ko" biro nya na ikinatawa ko
