**START**

Justin was in the dressing room with Gelou and Yani. They are rehearsing for the last time before Justin's solo stage at Pagtatag! Finale concert.

Ken was peeking at the dressing room's slightly opened door. 

"Hindi, haharap nalang ako sa'yo tapos hahawakan mo yung kamay ko." Gelou suggested. 

"Parang mas better if ikaw hahawak sakin? Kasi ikaw nga yung silhouette kunwari diba?" Justin suggested too. 

"Oh, ganito, kunwari yan na nilapitan kita," Gelou re-enacted. Lumayo siya kay Justin and then composed herself then slowly walked towards Justin. Until Gelou and Justin were facing each other.

"Yan, tapos mag stop ako. Tapos hahawakan ko cheeks mo parang ganito." Gelou was about to caress cheeks when Ken butted in. 

"Ay, Gel, parang masyadong malapit. Siguro mas okay kung medyo layo ka atleast 2 steps backward." Ken said nodding as if he had the brightest suggestion. He now successfully entered the dressing room. 

Justin just chuckled and shook his head. 

"Ay si bakod?"  Gelou said raising one eyebrow. 

Yani smirked, "Mas okay ata Gel kung yayakapin mo si Jah, tapos iki-kiss mo sa cheeks paglapit mo." he suggested. 

"Hala. Walang ganun kuya Yani. Imagination nga lang si Gelou dyan eh." Ken pouted. 

"Eh ba't ka nagseselos sa imagination lang?" Gelou said laughing. 

"Game na, game na. So pano na?" Justin said smiling, trying to finalize their routine.

Gelou once again moved closer to  Justin. 

"Gel backward." Ken said looking at their feet, akala mo talaga seryoso. 

Gelou stepped back.

"Backward pa." Ken said again swaying his hands.

Gelou did few more steps backward.

"More pa, backward pa." Ken said again, still not satisfied with Gelou and Justin's distance. 

Justin hits his palm on his forehead upon realizing how far Gelou is from him now. 

"Ken ano ba! Baka naman nasa baba na ako ng stage pag ganito kalayo!" Gelou complained. 

Justin and Gelou are now 2 meters apart. 

"Okay na yan. Goods na yan." Ken said and smiled at Justin. He even gave him a thumbs up. 

Justin blurted out a laugh, "'ga hindi pwede. Masyadong malayo." then he looked at Gelou, 
 "Game Gel, lapit ka na sakin."

 They did sing the bridge part and finalize their routine.

"Boss. Paready na daw po si sir Justin." One staff told Yani. 

"Tara na Jah." Gelou said. 

Yani smiled, "Tara na Gel, mauna na tayo dun." he told Gelou and guided her outside the dressing room. 

It was only Ken and Justin left. 

"'Ga, wag masyadong malapit ha." Ken reminded Justin. 

"Yes yes. Pero di rin pwedeng malayo." Justin said.
