Taming of a Starr - Book 1 (FIN)

Tame #74

Starr

I can't explain my emotions right now. The lights then turned dark pero ang pinakahinihintay kong tao, wala parin. She hates me and I know how much she hates me being in this play.

I gave one last look at the audience pero wala pa rin sya. Tanging si Tres lang ang dumating at binigyan ako ng bouquet kanina. Napatingin ako sa gawi nya and he gave me a warm smile and a thumbs up. Sumindi na ang spotlight at tumutok sakin na nakaupo sa harap ng piano.

Play Proper:

"♪ Let me be the one to break it up so you won't have to make excuses ♪"

I heard applauses from the audience na agad din namang nagsubside ng ituloy ko ang pagkanta habang nagpapiano.

"♪ We don't need to find a set up where, someone wins and someone loses. We just have to say our love was true but has now become a lie ♪"

"♪ So I'm telling you I love you one last time...and goodbye ♪"

It flashbacked to me the last six months I had with him. Napakaikling panahon kung tutuusin but it felt like I've known him my whole lifetime. I remember the first time I hurt him because of a deal, his first heartbreak, the time he started to become special to me, first date, first real kiss, my self who changed because of him, the time he became so cold, the time that I gave up and now, the time that even destiny gave up.

Troy: "Am I hurting you that much, Sharlot? Tell me. Are you hurting because of me?"

Sharlot: "No. W-Why should I be?"

Ganitong ganito yun eh. Lahat ng pinagdaanan ni Sharlot napagdaanan ko rin ng magsimulang tumibok ang puso ko para kay Jared. I felt sad, excited, hurt, blissful, happy and in love.

Troy: "I don't understand. You promised to help me with Samantha right?"

Sharlot: "Yeah. Hindi ko naman nakakalimutan yun, Troy"

I was beside him during that time that she left him. A bridge, a friend, companion. He's looking at her, longing for her and got hurt because of her while I was doing the same thing to him unknowingly.

Troy: "We got back together, Sharlot!"

The first time they got back together I know I should be happy. Pero hindi ko magawa. He started to avoid me as if I'm biggest bitch in town. Like I was having an incurable disease. Yet I still found myself caring for him.

Sharlot: "C-congrats Troy. Finally! I'm happy for you-Hey! Why are you hugging me??"

Troy: "Cause finally we're back together! Thanks to you. Isn't it great?"

Sharlot: "Y-yeah"

I said not pertaining to what he said but on his sudden hug. It really felt so good being here wrapped around his strong arms. Bilang na bilang lang ang pagkakataong nayakap nya ko at ang sarap nito sa pakiramdam.

"Starr sa dressing room ka muna. Scene pa nila Red at Fia. Pahinga ka muna"

"I'm fine, Nancy. Dito na lang ako"

"You sure?" I nodded. "Sige ikaw bahala" nandito kami sa backstage at pinanood ang scene sa stage gamit ang monitor na nakakabit sa dingding. Nilagay to para alam namin kung anong scene na dahil nasa harap ang director at si Miss S.

Troy: "I love you so much, Samantha. Please don't leave me ever again"

Samantha: "I won't. I promise, Troy. I love you too"
