Playlist #15

Epilogue

Another night of feeling like I'm about to give up. Tomorrow is my last day of senior high. I get chills whenever I think of the phrase Last Day. Who knows what I'll do in the future. So many things in my head. So many decisions I regret. Sometimes I wonder, will I ever see her again?


I turn on my phone and grab my headphones to listen to music. Ahh music, the last thing that keeps me going. While going through my library, I stumbled upon this one playlist. I stumbled upon the playlist. I clicked play and immediately the memories start flooding my head. Ang bobo ko naman, I knew I was gonna regret it and still ginawa ko pa rin.


I hit shuffle and instantly froze when I heard the first song play. It was Always by Daniel Caesar. We always used to sing along to this. I felt a tear drop. That was the moment I knew na hindi pa rin ako over sakanya. I'm still not over Azi. I miss her. So much. 


As I was walking in the streets, I saw a woman following me. I fastened my pace, my heart beating loudly as I listen to the next song playing, Ride Home by Ben&Ben. It was weird listening to the song I sang to her on our first road trip while I'm practically being followed by a woman who looks like she's about to eat me.


She finally caught up to me and I'm sweating so bad na parang naligo na ako sa pawis. "Excuse me, miss?" She said in a soft voice which made me calm down a bit. I took off my headphones "I'm sorry, I didn't see you. Yes?" Lame reply but okay. "Sorry to disturb you pero kasi I found you really pretty. I was wondering if you can sing or dance?" Weird question "U-uhm yes, I do. May I ask why?" I stuttered. 

"I work for BloomArts Entertainment, I was wondering if you're interested in becoming an idol?" She then gave me her card. BloomArts? IDOL??  "Call me before Febuary 8." She said and left.

I mean yes magaling akong kumanta at sumayaw pero me? an idol??? Azi and I used to joke about how she was going to be an idol habang ako yung gf na pupunta sa lahat ng mga ganap niya. We dreamed of so many things.



(flashbacks)
Azi and I were playing around in the music room. She was playing the piano, we were both singing the words to Constant by Jesse Barrera and Jeremy Passion. I gazed at how good she was with the piano. Her voice makes me melt like ice. She looked beautiful as ever.


She looked at me and stopped playing "Oh? bat ka tumigil" I said. "Baka kasi matunaw pa ako sa titig mong yan" I laughed.


"Sorry, I was just looking at my constant kasi." Smooth, I saw her blush "Whatever Maeve Lim, labas na tayo, baka ma-late pa tayo sa next class natin." She said pero I held her hand. "Play one more song, please?" I said with pleading eyes.

"Fine, pero last na talaga." She said and sat back down. She proceeded to play With You by Belle Mariano. I really imagine her on stage, playing for millions of fans, me being one of them.


She finished the song and I smiled. "Sure ka bang ayaw mo maging idol? I mean, ang ganda ng boses mo, you know how to dance, and bonus yung visuals mo!" I exclaimed. She laughed "Hays love, sa panaginip nalang yan. Plus, you dance better than me! Tara na nga!" I smiled at her.

(End of Flashback)


I thought of something crazy. What if makikita ko pa siya? What if sumikat nga kami tapos magkakacollab? What if we're under the same company? So many what ifs yet alam ko naman sa sarili ko na hindi ko siya kayang harapin.


But I also considered the benefits. All I have to do is sing and dance to earn money. I honestly don't have any career paths I wanna take. Okay, I'll give this a shot.
