Sabay

Closer

(Raining outside still sitting on the couch, Manoah is lying on her lap, caressing her face while she brushes his hair and sings to him a short song she composed long ago)

"lying here beside you is all I dreamed of. I wanted you to know, how my life is changing nothing else mattered when you came. I love staring at you. You're brighter than the stars from the heavens. just hold my hand don't let go. cause I am here to stay, please don't go away"

(he listened to her intently and looks at her lovingly. true to the meaning of the song nothing really mattered to them but them, being together)

your face is calming every storm inside of me Abi, I can rest here forever in your arms

---------------------------------------------

(late afternoon someone's knocking Manoah's door)

(Jerald, Sam, Nichole, Valeen and Rizza friends of Noah decided to dropped by his condo)

(Manoah opened the door hesitantly)
