Vielle closed her eye again, massaged her forehead and breathe deeply. Naiinis siya. She can't contain it anymore. She needs to let it all out. But she can't. Not in the middle of a crowded place.
"Vielle... sorry na." Her friend Elise begged. Elise looks like she's at the verge of crying. Pinipigilan lang niya. It's her fault anyway. But she really feel sorry.
Vielle opened her eyes and looked at Elise, glaring.
"Elise naman kasi!" She started to say. Not loudly but enough for Elise to hear her mad voice. "Why did you left our concert tickets?! Paano na lang tayo makakapasok niyan?!"
Elise bit her lower lip and looked down. She covered her face using her hands. She really feel sorry. Tanga niya kasi. Bago man sila umalis kanina, tinanong siya ni Vielle kung nasa kanya na yung tickets. She said yes kahit hindi naman niya na-check kung dala niya. Nagmamadali kasi sila. They were late.
"Tangina! 10k bawat isa nun, Elise!" Sigaw ulit ni Vielle. She was mad. She didn't care anymore even if there were passers by who looked at them. Ayaw naman niyang balikan yung tickets dahil aabutin ng isa't kalahating oras bago sila makarating sa condo nila. The concert will start in fifteen minutes. It was her most awaited concert in her life. Pinag-ipunan niya ang isang ticket kahit na namamahalan siya. Halos di na siya kumain sa loob ng isang buwan para makabili nun. Yes, exage but it was worth to see her favorite girl band perform in Araneta.
"I'm sorry..." Elise cried. "Babawi na lang ako, Vielle." Vielle saw her shoulders shaking. "Please, don't be mad at me." And Elise hugged her while she was crying, hard.
Vielle never wanted to see Elise cry but it was her fault. She can't do anything to fix the problem. Uuwi na lang siguro sila. And cry for the lost twenty thousand worth of tickets and the chance to see her favorite girl band, personally. Pati siya, naiiyak na kakatahan sa kaibigan.
"Vielle?" A voice said making her thoughts stop. She knew that voice. The guy walked closely at her and Elise, who was still crying not noticing the guy. "Oy, Elise. Nandito din pala kayo?"
"Ay, hindi. Hindi kami nandito. We're just a hallucination of your stupid mind." Vielle wanted to answer but she hide her bitterness and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Isa ako sa staff." The guy said and lifted his ID. "Di kayo papasok?"
"Ay hindi. Palabas na nga kami, actually. Tapos na kasi yung concert." Vielle stopped her mouth before she could say it. Umiling na lang siya.
Elise noticed that Vielle was talking to someone so she stood up, face wet, and was shocked to see the guy.
"Oh gods! Warren?!" Elise shouted. Vielle rolled her eyes and Warrend laughed. Vielle missed his laughed but she doesn't care anymore. "Anong ginagawa mo dito?" Elise noticed the ID hanging on his neck. "Staff ka?! OMG! Please help us! Please!"
Vielle did a facepalm as Elise held Warren's hand, begging. Napangiti si Warrem sa ginawa ni Vielle.
"Bakit? What happened?" Warren asked.
"Eh kasi. Ang tanga ko. I left our concert tickets in our condo. Alam mo naman kung gaano kalayo yun 'di ba? And we can't get in." Warren looks at Vielle who was looking at the excited group of teens who was wearing costumes that looked like her favorite girl band. "Vielle's mad at me."
"May lima akong concert tickets. Sa inyo na lang yung dalawa." Warren answered. Vielle and Elise looked at her. Shocked even. "Bakit?"
"Seryoso ka?!" Tanong ni Elise. Vielle wanted to ask too. But she can't. So she shut up.
"Oo nga." Warren opened his backpack to get the tickets. Vielle noticed the same bag. Hindi pa rin nagbabago. Lagi na lang niyang dala ang bag na yan. "Here." Warren said and handed the tickets to them. Warren handed her one but she didn't took it so Elise did. Elise looked at it and squelled. Napatingin tuloy siya sa tickets. She was shocked when she noticed something written on the ticket.
VIP
"Wow." Was all she can say. Meaning, they have the chance to see their favorite band, talk to them and even hug them. Wow. The ticket was worth 25 thousand pesos, each.
"Problem solved! Tara na?" Warren said and took her hand. Holding it firmly as if there was an us again. She was still in shock so she let him. Shocked that it felt nice.
