20: Best Gift Ever

Airene's POV

"I love you too that God only knows how much"

Yun yung gusto kong sabihin kaso hindi ko masabi. Hindi ko alam kung bakit pero may feeling ako na hindi pa ngayon yung tamang panahon na isabi iyon.

May nagbigay kay Adrian ng microphone at bumalik siya dun sa may mini stage.

Tumingin ako sa paligid. Nakita ko sina Mama, Tita Dya at Tita Mar na may lapad na ngiti sa kanilang mga mukha. Nagpeace sign pa si Mama sa akin sabay wink. Inirapan ko na lamang siya.

Bwuset! Niloko nila ako! Nakakainis! Sabi na nga ba eh, may tinataguan sina Mama eh.

Bumalik ang tingin ko sa mini stage nang narinig ko yung boses niya. Nagsimula na ang tunog ng mga drums. And add this one, ngayon ko lang napansin na may banda pala sa harapan ko.

♪♪When a day is said and done,

In the middle of the night and you're fast asleep, my love.

Stay awake looking at your beauty,

Telling myself I'm the luckiest man alive.

'Cause so many times I was certain you was gonna walk out of my life.

Why you take such a hold of me, girl,

When I'm still trying to get my act right.♪♪

Tumawa ako saglit, ngayon ko lang nalaman na marunong pala kumanta 'tong mokong ito. May close eyes pa siyang nalalaman. Haha. He was staring at me. I just stared back at him. Then we both smiled.

♪♪What is the reason, when you really could have any man you want,

I don't see, what I have to offer.

I should've been a season, guess you could see I had potential.

Do you know you're my miracle?♪♪

Nung iniwan niya ako noon nung mga bata pa kami, walang gabi na hindi ko siya iniisip. Alam kong para akong tanga, bukod isa pa akong anti-romantic love. At kahit ganun ang nangyari, hindi ko magawang hindi mag-alala kung ano ang nangyari sa kanya o okay lang ba siya.

♪♪I'm like a statue, stuck staring right at you,

Got me frozen in my tracks.

So amazed how you take me back,

Each and every time our love collapsed.

Statue, stuck staring right at you,

So when I'm lost for words

Every time I disappoint you,

It's just 'cause I can't believe,

That you're so beautiful. (Stuck like a statue)

Don't wanna lose you, no. (Stuck like a statue)♪♪

At nung bumalik siya, nawala yung lahat ng pag-alala ko sa kanya. Nagbago siya, nagbago ang kanyang boses, ang kanyang height, kanyang mukha, pati yung apelyido niya. Akalain mo?

♪♪Ask myself why are you even with me

After all the shit I put you through?

Why did you make it hard so with me
