Paglabas ko ng office, agad agad ko nakita sila Mommy at Dada. Wow ha?! Wow na wow.
"What happened?" Mommy asked and she really looks worried. I was sent to the office because of singing I Kissed a Girl. Of course, pinagalitan ako ng disciplinarian because of singing that song in class.
And they thought that I only made that up. Sorry, I did not write that song.
"We had a little talk." I said and smiled at Mom. She really looks worried af.
"So, you're not suspended?" Dada asked this time.
"Muntikan na but no. I'll get suspended for just singing that song? Ang babaw naman."
"Hello it's not your gen- it's not New York here." Dada said and crossed her arms.
"I agree with Danielle. If New York is open, not here. Besides, you can sing any song you want but why that song? I haven't heard that one before." Mommy said and held my arm. Aww concern talaga siya sa akin.
"I just want to annoy Ma'am that's all. Anyway, let's go?" I said and smiled at them both. We decided to leave since it's dismissal time already. We walked home together and I noticed that Dada is so watchful of Mommy.
"You could have just sing the national anthem." Sabi ni Dada habang naglalakad kami papunta sa mall. They decided to pass by the mall dahil titingin daw sila ng bagong record.
And Dada said that she'll buy us something to eat, which is so sweet of her.
Habang naghahanap sila ng record, naghanap rin ako para may magawa lang.
"Aaaah Depeche Mode!" Tinaas ko ang record ng Depeche Mode para makita nila.
Tinaasan ako ng kilay ni Dada at si Mommy wala lang.
"Oh you like them?" Mommy asked me. I shrugged my shoulders as my answer.
"Do you?" I asked.
"No."
Baliktaran?! Bakit ayaw ni Mommy sa Depeche Mode ngayon? Diba si Dada ang ayaw? Ayaw niya kasi they remind her of Uncle Harry... right.
Hinayaan ko na sila maghanap ng records while I roam around the store. May isang lalaki pumipindot ng keys sa synthesizer and I believe I saw this one on Mom's studio.
Mommy has a LOT of synths.
"Gusto mo i-try?" Tanong ng lalaki. I nodded my head and I tweaked some settings. Mommy taught me how use these stuffs.
Ako lang naman kasi ang interisado sa kanila. Kaya music ang gusto ko because I want to be like Mom.
Oh my God these are old synthesizers.
"Dash! You know how to use a synthesizer?" Nilapitan ako ni Mommy when she saw me playing.
"Yeah." I played a note and it sounds like a brass.
"I know how to play too! I know how to play by ear!" She said proudly. Siyempre nagkunwari akong hindi ko alam.
"Talaga-"
"Talaga Corey? Marunong ka?"
Bigla naman sumulpot sila Isabel. Aaah fuck here we go again.
"Yeah! Marunong siya-"
"I'm not talking to you-"
