Off-screen Romance: JuliElmo Love Story (COMPLETED)

Chapter 7: The Promise

Bakit parang bumilis yung tibok nang puso ko?

You got me trippin', stumblin', flippin', fumblin'

Clumsy 'cause I'm fallin' in love

You got me slippin', tumblin', sinkin', fumblin'

Clumsy 'cause I'm fallin' in love

So in love with you

Mukhang ako ata…yung na-love at first sight. Am I slowly falling inlove? Elmo..can you catch me?

“UY ANO BA!”

Bigla akong itnayo ni Elmo saka pinagpag yung sleeves niya.

“Ayan eh, tignan mo nga daanan mo”

Nagulat ako kasi biglang tumaas yung boses niya. Kanina mabait, ngayon naman, napakasungit. Ano ‘to?May mood swing siya? Tss. May pa let’s work let’s work togetgher to make our tandem successful pas siyang nalalaman kanina.

Eh di ayon, nagrehearse na kami. Magaling talaga siyang mag-rap.Namana niya talaga sa papa niya. Idol ko yun eh. Si sir Kiko.

After namin magrehearse, pinatawag kami ni direk doon sa likod.

“So guys, mukhang magkakasama pa kayo ng mas matagal. So, Elmo will join you, Julie for a workshop. So after tomorrow,  on Monday, may workshop kayo doon sa studio at 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm. So settle your schedules for Monday,okay?”

“Yes direk”

Nag-oo na ako kaagad kasi wala din naman akong pupunthan. Doon lang ako sa bahay at mag-aaral ng mga kanta. Pero nagulat ako kasi may workshop na kami kaagad together. Parang ang bilis ata?

“Okay direk” At nag-agree na din si Moe.

“Oh sige, kids. Mauuna na ako.”

Nag-beso kami kay Direk tapos umalis na siya. Pupunta na din sana ako backstage when Moe tapped my left shoulder.

“Hm?”

“Uhm-“ Inabot niya sa akin yung phone niya “Can I get your number? Since mukhang starting today,mukhang more often na mas magkakasama na tayo”

“Okay” I’m enterering my number on his phone nang biglang may tumawag s akin. “Ay, wait lang pala”

--

Elmo’s POV:I tapped Julie’s left shoulder and handed my phone to her. “Can I get your number? Since mukhang starting today,mukhang more often na mas magkakasama na tayo”

“Okay” She’s entering her number on my phone when she suddenly gave it back. “Ay, wait lang pala”

Medyo lumayo siya sa akin ng konti. I was shocked when she chose to answer THAT CALL FIRST FROM I-DO-NOT-KNOW-WHO-IS-THAT-PERSON-IS instead of finishing of entering her number.

Hindi ba, dapat BLESSED SIYA NA I GET HER NUMBER?Yes, you should feel BLESSED when an Elmo Magalona asked for your number kasi minsan lang ako kumuha nang cellphone number and take note,babae pa.

I looked at my phone and saw that she only entered 9 digits. Tinignan ko si Julie and she’s busy laughing and talking. 7 minutes has gone by at hindi pa din siya bumalik.

Doon na ako sobrang nainip. Bahala na nga siya!

I clicked the “SAVE” button in my phone.Her name? -> “Mushroom”
