Cassy's POV

Andito ako ngayon sa tapat ng unit ni Nathan. Kasi inimbitahan niya ako sa isang gig niya. Ka duet daw niya. At first I don't want to take his invitation but it's an opportunity para makasama ko siya.

I click the door bell twice then it opened I saw Nathan and greeted me with a smile on his face.

"Hi Cassy, thank you for coming akala ko hindi ka na darating. Tara pasok ka sa loob." dere-deretso niyang sabi.

"Hello, syempre tumutupad ako sa usapan."

As I enter his unit I feel goosebumps, ganun na ganun pa rin ang itsura lahat ng gamit niya it's in the same place. Naalala ko tuloy bigla yung mga happy memories namin.

"So, shall we?" sabi niya.

"of course" sagot ko naman.

While we are on our way to the parking lot nasalubong namin so Jazz yung tenant sa kabilang unit.

"Cassy??" he asked in disbelief.

Nginitian ko siya at tumango.

"Kayo na ulit?" tanong niya

Sasagot na sana ako pero inunahan ako ni Nathan.

"Malapit na" he said while laughing.

Sumakay na kami sa kotse niya at dumiretso sa Bar na tutugtugan namin.

Pinakilala na niya ako sa ka banda niya. Actually wala kaming practice, so nag warm up muna kami.

After a while tinawag na kami sa stage para mag umpisa ng tumugtog. Siya muna ang magso solo jaya umupo muna ako.

"Good Evening everyone. We are the Bachelor's Band. I'm Nathan, vocal and guitarist. And they are my band mates"

"Steven, drummer"

"Jack, Bass"

"Kaeto, lead guitar"

"Itong unang kakantahin ko ay ide-dedicate ko sa babaeng minahal ko ng sobra. Sa babaeng nanakit at dumurog ng puso ko pero mahal na mahal ko pa rin. Sa babaeng patuloy ko pa ring minamahal hanggang ngayon. Sana bumalik ka na."

"I want you to stay
Never let you go away from me
Stay forever
But now, now that you're gone
All I can do is pray for you
To be here beside me again
Why did you have to leave me?
When you said that love would conquer all.
Why did you have to leave me?
When you said that dreaming was as good as reality."

Nakatulala lang ako habang nakikinig sa kanta niya. I can feel the song, the lyrics was for me. Tears starting to fall from my eyes. I remember all our happy memories together. Those late night phone calls, the way we dance together, our weird bonding moments, everything as in everything. Nagsisisi ako, that I didn't give him the chance to explain his side. I hope it's not too late para bumawi sa kanya.

He's continue singing and my eyes still nailed on him. Thoughts are popping on my mind. I have to tell him the truth now before it's too late. I can't take this kind of lie anymore. I also want Czarr to be happy too.

Natapos niya na ang kanta at tumabi siya sa akin.

"You okay?" he asked me

"Yeah, I'm fine" I replied

"You need something? Gutom ka na ba? Drinks?? " he asked me again.

"A shot of vodka I think??" I said then smiled at him

He's handsome face suddenly frown.

"No way, I don't want you to drink" he said in husky tone.

I just laughed at him

"Then why you don't want me to drink sir? I asked him

"That's my rule, you have to follow" he said seriously.

"Just this one sir please??" I plead

"Okay,okay but this would be the last" he said

He's a kind of a guy who is possessive but I like it. He called the waiter and ordered a bottle of vodka and foods. After a while, our order was served. I was happily drinking shots of vodka when he break the silence between us.

"Be ready after 30 minutes, tayo na ang kakanta" I just nodded.

He sit beside me and put his arms around my waist and pull me closer. Then he suddenly whisper something to me.

"Next time honey, don't wear dress like that. Boys are drooling over you baka makapatay ako"

"Possesive huh?" I response

"Of course" he said while smiling naughtily.

"Okay sir, I will never wear dress like this anymore unless you say so" I said and pinch his cheeks.

"Good, okay let's go then?? Do you know the song I love you by Alex and Sierra?? " he asked me.

I answered "Hmm, yes why?? "

"Yun ang kakantahin natin. So, shall we go now?? " he replied and offer his hands to me.

I said "Okay" and stand-up.

Umakyat na kami sa stage then he started introducing me.

"This girl standing in front of you is Cassy. She's the girl I was talking about a while ago. And we'll gonna sing this song for you"

Naghiyawan yung mga tao, yung iba parang kinikilig pa. The feeling was over-whelming.

"Hi, everyone I'm Cassy and I'm that girl this boy wishing me to come back" I said while looking at Nathan's eyes.
