Last period. Ugh, wala na 'kong gana mag-aral. Pero syempre, kahit ayaw ko, kakayanin ko.

"We have 15 minutes before dismissal, is everybody finished?" tanong ni prof.

Marami-rami ring nag-yes. Pero majority, nag no.

"To avoid unnecessary talks inside the room, you may now go out and converse there."

Lumabas na 'ko at dumeretso sa locker ko.

I miss you.

Isang papel ang naka-dikit dito.

"What's this?" binuksan ko na ang locker ko't nahanap ang isa pang papel.

Follow the music.

Totoo ngang kanina pa ako nakaririnig ng tugtog, precisely guitar.

Sinundan ko ang tono ang musika na para bang tinatawag ako.

My feet took me to the music room, and there I saw him smiling at me.

May hawak siyang gitara, at mga balloons na naka-kalat. Sa harap, may letter-shaped balloons forming the words, "I'm Sorry, Liah"

"Liah, I'm really, really, really sorry." Sinimulan niya. "Alam kong nasaktan kita pero, hindi ko talaga sinasadya."

Aalis na sana ako ng nakaramdam ako ng mahigpit na pag-hawak sa kamay ko.

"Don't leave me again," sabi niya kasabay ng luhang konti nalang ay mahuhulog na.

Ng napansin niyang wala akong masabi, tumugtog siya ng isang kanta. At ang tinugtog niya? Ang paborito ko.

I found a love for me
Darling just dive right in, and follow my lead
Well I found a girl, beautiful and sweet
I never knew you were the someone waiting for me
Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
Not knowing what it was, I will not give you up this time
But darling just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own
And in your eyes you're holding mine

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it, darling you look perfect tonight

Well I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know and
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home
I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
To carry love, to carry children of our own
We are still kids, but we're so in love, fighting against all odds
I know  we'll be alright this time
Darling just hold my hand, be my girl, I'll be your man
I see my future in your eyes

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
When I saw you in that dress, looking so beautiful
I don't deserve this, darling you look perfect tonight

 

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
I have faith in what I see
Now I know I have met an angel in person
And she looks perfect,  I don't deserve this
You look perfect tonight
