My Traitor Bestie (BM)

164

Aku ternganga akibat terpegun dengan pentas dan keramaian orang di stadium yang luas begini. Tak sangka pass konsert VVIP ini merupakan tempat paling hadapan dan betul-betul buat aku boleh tengok Taylor Swiss depan sekali.

Usai lagu pembukaan dimainkan, aku sudah mulai lupa diri. Menyanyi sambil menikmati konsert itu dengan Ryan membuatkan aku hampir lupa seketika dengan realiti hidup. Cuma ada aku, muzik dan Taylor Swiss!

"This is crazy!" Aku bercakap kuat kepada Ryan. Suara aku ditenggelami alunan muzik dan jeritan peminat. Ryan mengangguk setuju!

"Okay guys! Guess what's is the next song?!" Soal Taylor Swiss berikan teka-teki. Namun, dek kerana semua orang menjawab "Luv Stori" aku juga turut berteriak perkataan yang sama! Lagu anthem sejak dari zaman sekolah lagi! Kami peminat, semua menjerit manakala Taylor masih lagi main teka-teki.

"Here you go, Luv Stori" katanya lalu menyanyi. Hampir mengalir air mata aku disebabkan melihat dia menyanyi secara siaran langsung! Lagu yang menjadi anthem sejak zaman aku sekolah sekarang secara live!

We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm standin' there
On a balcony in summer air

Aku menyanyi mengikut rentak. Begitu juga Ryan.
Dia kelihatan senang untuk menyanyi dengan aku.

See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
And say, "Hello"
Little did I know

Mata kami bertaut. Aku sengih pada Ryan, begitu juga dia.

That you were Romeo, you were throwin' pebbles
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
And I was cryin' on the staircase
Beggin' you, "Please don't go, " and I said
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes"

Ryan meletakkan lengan di bahu aku. Sambil menjerit ke arah Taylor Swiss yang sedang melambai kami.

So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet, 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes
Escape this town for a little while, oh oh
'Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
But you were everything to me
I was beggin' you, "Please don't go, " and I said
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes"

Aku menolak Ryan, aku mahu menyanyi bersama Taylor.

Romeo, save me, they're tryna tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but it's real
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes"
Oh, oh

Aku tarik nafas! Sudah sampai bahagian yang paling digemari olehku. Taylor menyampaikan lagu dengan penuh perasaan.

I got tired of waiting
Wonderin' if you were ever comin' around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town, and I said
Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you, but you never come
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think

Jeritan kedengaran. Aku memandang Ryan akibat bingit suara peminat disekeliling aku. Aku terkedu. Ryan melutut dan mengeluarkan sebentuk cincin kepadaku.
Mata Ryan bersinar, penuh pengharapan memandang aku. Dia senyum gembira menghulurkan cincin kepadaku.

Aku terkedu.

He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring
And said, "Marry me, Juliet
You'll never have to be alone
I love you and that's all I really know
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes"
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
