Have Been In Love With The Superstar (COMPLETED)

37:Surfing

Naka-tanggap kami ng masigabong palakpakan matapos ang performance namin.

"You did great." ani Brayden ng pabalik na kami sa aming table.

Ngumiti lang ako sa kanya dahil medyo na-awkward ako. May bumabati sa amin kapag nakaka-salubong kami ng mga guests. Ako naman ay hiyang-hiya. Hell! It's my first time to sing in this size of crowd.

Mga puri rin ang natanggap namin sa table namin. Kuya is even shouting about it. He's out of his mind. Hindi ko alam kung anong nang-yari diyan.

Natapos din ang gabing iyon na successful. Dumiretso kaagad ako ng kwarto matapos magpaalam sina Brayden. May trabaho pa pala yung isang yun pero umuwi ng madaling araw na. Masyadong nawili ata sa party pero panay naman ang sama sa akin.

Kinabukasan, tanghali na naman ako nagising. At agad kong kinuha ang phone ko.

Marami kaagad ang notifs ko. Pinag-celebrate ng mga kaibigan ko ang birthday ko kahit wala ako roon. May mga mall tours naman ang Summer Wind.

Naaalala ko na naman sila. At sa tuwing naaalala ko sila ay nasasaktan ako. May tumulong mga luha ng makita ko ang imahe ni Reniel sa aking isip. Yung mga masasayang araw na magkasama kami na siguro'y hindi na mauulit.

In the midst of reminiscing, nakuha ang atensyon ko ng ilang mga notifs sa magkaka-iba ibang social medias.

James Brayden sent you a friend request

James Brayden started following you

At ilan pang mga ganon. Pakingteyp! Paano niya nahanap ang mga accounts ko eh iba naman ang mga username ko. Well, may konting iniiba lang naman.

Wala na akong nagawa kundi iaccept at ifollow back siya sa lahat ng accounts ko. Nabigla ako ng nag-pop ang chat head ng messenger ko. It's James Brayden.

Ilang minuto lang kaming nagka-chat dahil nasa pag-eensayo siya para sa kanyang new music video. Ang pasaway din ng isang yon eh.

But then, I really don't know why I'm keeping on communicating with this guy even if we just met last night. And so he is. We both are strangers to each other but we talk as if we knew each other for years.

Bumaba nalang ako para kumain. Tahimik ang bahay.

"Where are they?" tanong ko sa kasambaay.

"Your parents went to their work and your brother is working out in mini gym." tugon naman nito na tinanguan ko lang.

Pinapak ko na ang ginawa kong cereals habang nagbabasa ng magazine.

Ang boring naman ng life ko oh!

It's been months now since I was forced to move here in Calif and I got myself enrolled for my last senior year. Few more days, the school year will start. Ganon din sa Pilipinas. Magiging busy na sila at ganon din ako. Nakaka-adjust na ako dito at nagiging okay na ako sa paligid ko. Ive meet several people and I can consider them as my friends. Some of them were inviting me for a night out party but every time they did, I refused. Mom scolded me for that since they were all good people but its just not my thing to party.

James Brayden had filed a leave on his job. I guess its just two weeks. He said he just needed a break from showbiz. Well, he's getting quite billion of fans around the world and it's really stressing and pressuring when you know that there are people who're waiting for your new songs, for your career to rise and of course for you to drown in so many issues that might cause for your bad reputation until you get kicked out from the screens.

"Katriel?" its mom's voice who speak behind the door.

"James is downstairs. Hes waiting for you, dear."
