I See You • Shawn Mendes [DISCONTINUED]

show day

Today is a very special Friday for Trina. It was Shawn's concert, yep, you've guessed it.

Trina screams at the top of her lungs from upstairs, scaring my mom and I who were watching TV downstairs.

My mom, being a mom, ran upstairs in a hurry, shouting, "Trina! What happened?"

Why does my day seem to start with everybody screaming?

"Tonight's the concert mom!" Trina exclaimed, clearly excited for Shawn Mendes.

My mother comes back in to the living room and sits beside me with a sigh. "Ikaw na bahala diyan sa kapatid mo ha. (You're in charge of your sister, okay.)"

"Yeah, mom. Should I bring my car later?"

"No, your father and I will take you then pick you up after." She instructs then goes to the kitchen to prepare lunch.

My mom doesn't work on Fridays so we get to eat home cooked meals every Friday when there are no classes.

A little after three in the afternoon, Trina was already starting to get ready for Shawn's concert; as for me? I was woken up from my nap.

"Come on, Lexy! You need to get ready!" She pulls me up from bed, not even bothering to wake me up properly.

"Alright! I'm up, I'm up." I grunt and go to our en suite to freshen up and get ready.

Mom enters our room to tell us that dad will be home by four and that we'll leave by then so we could line up early and get a good spot.

We arrived at Air Canada Centre by six and the lines were already so long.

"Enjoy, mga anak. (my daughters)" Our dad said as we kissed his cheeks.

Trina and I was accompanied by our mom to the line for the VIP section and we heard some girls talking about a Q&A and a meet-and-greet.

"Hi, sweetie. May I ask what's this Q&A and meet-and-greet thing you're talking about?" My mom tapped this one girl, about my age, on the shoulder and asked.

"Oh, hi." The girl smiled politely. "Shawn does these things before he starts every show, only the ones with VIP tickets get to go."

"Oh, thank you dear."

"You're welcome." The girl smiled once again, and turned back to her friends.

"You hear that, Trina? You get to see your idol before everyone else!" My mom say excitedly, making the little girl jump.

"Lexy! I get to ask Shawn my question! Yes!"

"What question?" My mom tilts her head in confusion.

"Oh just something about his new music video. Trina's been preparing for when she meets Shawn." I replied to my mom, chuckling.

"Well, okay then. I'm going to go now, don't want to keep your father waiting too long." She winks at me, making me shiver...in a bad way.

"You're disgusting mom."

"Kiss mo na si mama, Trina. (Trina, give mama a kiss.)" Trina stands on her tip toes and gives mom a sloppy kiss on the cheek. "Mag-ingat kayo, ha. I-text mo ako o ang papa mo pag patapos na para masundo namin kayo. (Take care, okay. Text me or your father when it's almost done so we could pick you up.)"

"Yeah, mom. Drive safe." I kiss her on the cheek and she waves at us good bye and starts walking back to the parking lot.

"Ready, baby?" I ask Trina as the line starts to move.

"Yes!" She grabs my hand and pulls me in with the rest of the people in the VIP section.

We were ushered into a huge room where a photo wall was already set-up on one side and girls were already lined up on the other waiting to meet their idol. Trina and I were last in the line, because...well, I didn't want to tire myself by running when I know we can still meet him whether we be in the front, middle, or back of the line...so meh.

A few moments later, an attractive tall man enters making the girls go wild. Trina was jumping excitedly, pulling me along with her, shouting with all the other fans. "Lexy! It's Shawn! It's Shawn!"

So that's what he looks like in person...huh, no wonder these girls are going crazy.

Just look at him, oh my goodness.

"Lexy! Take many pictures of us, please?!" Trina screams at me, clinging to my side.

"Of course, T." I smile warmly at her, fixing her hair that got messed up by all the jumping she did.

The line was moving quickly, and soon enough it was our turn to meet the superstar.
