Matapos ang gig namin sa Tomaco ay naisipan naming mag-inuman at dito nga kami dinala ng mga paa namin sa Cheers.
"Oh? Twin tower orderin natin?" biglang tanong ni Ice ng makaupo na kami sa isang table sa madilim na bahagi.
Tumango naman sila Kiro at tinawag na ang isang waiter para umorder.
"Jarreb? Okay ka lang ba?" tanong ni Enzo sa kanya. Kaya napalingon ako sa kanila.
"Yeah. ." pagod nitong sagot.
What's with him?
Ilang sandali ay dumating na ang order namin at agad na silang nagsalin ng inumin.
"Woah! What's the problem,dude?!" sigaw ni Ice ng inisang lagok ni Jarreb ang alak.
Somethings really bothering him.
Kaya tinapik ko ang balikat niya.
Nilingon niya naman ako at umiling lamang ito.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Let's welcomeback. . .the Clean Noise!" sigaw ng host na nasa entablado.
"Parati pala sila dito?" tanong ni Kiro. Ngunit wala ni isang sumagot sa kanya dahil natuon na ang tingin namin sa harapan.
Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
Told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember
Si Leriko ang unang kumanta.
"Teka? May bago pala silang miyembro?" tanong ni Ice ng mapansin namin ang isang babae na nakatayo sa may tabi ni Leriko. Hindi pa namin makita ang mukha ng babae dahil madilim pa sa pwesto niya, hindi pa kasi itinutuon ang spotlight sa kanya.
You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Like resignation to the end, always the end
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be friends
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over
"S--si B--basha ba yan?"
Tanong ni Kiro.
Kumakanta pala siya?
Napalingon ako sa gawi ni Jarreb. Maging siya ay nanigas at namangha ng nakikita sa harapan namin.
Nagpa-blonde ng buhok si Leriko habang si Basha ay may highlights na blonde rin ang kanyang buhok.
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
No you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
"Fvck! Magaling pala siyang kumanta?" saad naman ni Ice. Ngunit wala pa rin kaming imik nila Enzo at Jarreb.
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
But I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know
But I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know
Patuloy pa rin ang pagkanta ng sabay nila Leriko at Basha sa harapan. They seem to know each other so long. Yung para bang matagal na ang samahan nila.
Tsk! So it wasn't my imagination?
I knew it! Nakainum lang ako ng dalawang baso ng alak ng gabing iyon kaya di pa ako lasing nun.
Bigla na lang akong napangisi sa naisip ko.
Kaya naman pala. .
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
No you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Somebody
(I used to know)
Somebody
(Now you're just somebody that I used to know)
(I used to know)
(That I used to know)
(I used to know)
Somebody
"Thank you guys!" pasasalamat ni Leriko ng matapos silang kumanta.
Nang makaalis na sila sa harapan ay wala pa ring nagsalita.
"Wooow. Ang ganda pala talaga ng tinig ni Basha. " basag ni Kiro sa katahimikan.
"Shit!" biglang saad ni Enzo. Kaya napalingon kami sa kanya.
"Siya yung sinasabi nilang Musika.
Si Musika at si Basha ay iisang tao." paliwanag nito sa mga nagtatanong naming mga mukha.
Nakita ko na lang ang paglagok ni Jarreb ng kanyang inumin at biglang tumayo.
"Where are you going?" di ko napigilang tanong.
Hindi ito sumagot. Basta na lang itong umalis ng walang sinabi.
Naiwan kaming nakatanga at wala ni isa ang makapagsalita.
