Serendipitous

There was a Confession

On stage, the boys were teasing Sam as he takes Je's place center-stage. Ever the master of cool, he was easily deflecting it because they're losers who have no game whatsoever and suck it you poor, miserable a**holes!

"Papi, nakalimutan mong punasan ang lipis-tick mo sa labi."

"Hala, nagta-transform ka na ba? Naiwan yata yung wig at boa feathers mo? Hahaha!"

"Wag kayong magulo, sinadya ko yan. Hi, mahal!" He blew a kiss to the camera. The crowd cheers.

"Naks! Yun oh! Hindi ko talaga alam kung anong nakita sa'yo ni Patring."

"Ate Pat, may kilala akong ophthalmologist pa-schedule kita?"

"Huuuysst!"

"Siya po talaga ang Yoda naming lahat. Ang tunay na Hokage ng Pag-ibig at Kaharotan." Alden proudly tell their audience with a pat on Sam's back.

"Papi, atin-atin lang", Je mock-whispers to him (with his mic on), "Dinaan mo ba sa gayuma yun? Baka naman..."

"Ang kanta pong ito..." Sam loudly says to the mic as he shoves J's face away. "Ito ay para sa nag-iisa sa puso ko." Sam winks at the camera.

"Pwede kang sumabay Je, baka may gusto ka din pag-alayan ng kanta."

"Hi Val!" Je wiggles his eyebrows at their drummer. She gives him the middle finger.

"E si Papi Alden?"

"Wala. Sa hangin. Para sa hangin."

"Wag na nga yan, heartbroken yan ngayon."

"Papi, kapit lang, darating din ang nakatadhana sa'yo."

"Yan na naman tayo sa tadhana e."

"Sige na, oo na. Para sa babaeng ayaw ipakita sakin ng tadhana."

Sam starts strumming.

"Pinagpala 

ng makilala ka

Ikaw ang dahilan 

ng aking paghinga..."

In the balcony, Jan sighs to her her friend. "Relationship goals talaga ang SaPat no?"

Maine looks at her blankly.

"Ay teka, ba't ba ikaw tinatanong ko, di mo nga pala sila kilala." She turns to the other girl beside her, the one who commented before. "Ang cute ng SaPat no?"

"Truth! Sobrang gandang gene pool ng magiging angkan nila!"

"Naku Meng, pag nakita mo yung supermodel niyang girlfriend, magha-harakiri ang self-esteem mo. Goals talaga si Patricia!"

"Pero teka lang," the other girl butted in, "May babaeng bumasag ng puso ni Bae, ang kapal lang!"

"Ano yun, dyosa? Ganda naman ni Ate!"

"Just look at him."

Maine was not the only one dazed with the image of Alden, eyes closed at sumasabay sa pagkanta behind Sam with such a look on his face.

"Ito ay alay ko sa'yo--

Panalangin ng isang 

hamak na katulad ko--

Ito ay alay ko sa yo--

Awiting kinakanta 

ng puso ko..."

"He looks like he's not over her yet."

The girls sigh.

"Poor guy... AKIN KA NA LANG PAPI!"
