Lonely (COMPLETED)

Chapter 10

Chapter 10

The month of January goes by swiftly. And even February, too. The love month is almost over and my book is out for sale. And so far, my book has thousands of copies had sold out. It's just two weeks ago since the day that our publication put it on bookstores.

"You're getting fame."

"Says who?" I retorted at Katlyn. She's the famous one here. Duh!

"Humble Aria is on the mode right now?" Katlyn replied teasingly and I just glared at her.

And my phone takes the spotlight by vibrating on the table.

"The future lover is calling so answer it now," ani Katlyn ng makita ang pangalan ni Blake sa screen ng phone ko.

I glare at her once more then answered the call.

"Yes?" Bati ko ng masagot ko na ang tawag.

"Can we meet?"

I perked up my brow at the tone of his voice. Is there something wrong? His voice seems sad. Is he okay?

"Uh.. I'm with Katlyn right now," Katlyn then gestured to me that I should meet him and just leave her here but I didn't paid attention to it. "Is it urgent?"

"Sort of--"

"No Blake! We're about to go home na. You can meet with her," singit ni Katlyn na lumapit pa sa akin para lang maabot ang kamay kong hawak ang phone kahit na may lamesa sa pagitan namin.

I hissed her at her sudden actions.

"Then can we meet?" Tanong ni Blake.

Sumesenyas pa si Katlyn sa akin na umoo na. Nagdadalawang isip pa ako dahil nga maiiwan si Katlyn.

I heave a sigh first before saying my answer.

"Alright, then. Where will we meet?"

Then the girl in front of me smiled wickedly. That kind of smile is so dangerous for some people but for me, it's a crazy-like-girl-kind-of-smile.

Kaagad naman akong pumunta sa sinabi ni Blake. Iniwan nalang si Katlyn roon. Nakokonsensya nga ako, e. Alam ko namang lonely siya ngayon at kailangan niya ng kaibigan para di niya iyon maramdaman pero binibigay niya pa rin ako sa lalaking gustong-gusto ko. She wants me to get a love life that much.

"So what's with the sudden call?" Tanong ko ng maupo na sa harap ni Blake.

Napabuga siya ng hininga at napa-seryoso ang mukha. Ano kaya ang sasabihin niya na ganito siya ngayon? Is he stressed? Depressed?

"I'm sorry, Aria. The song we recorded last month, the management didn't agree to published it under my album."

Okay. Honestly, I got hope that it could be included in his upcoming album but not that high. I'm expecting for this, too, but I still feel hurt.. a bit.

"Told you. No need to be sorry, Blake."

"No. You spent time for that. You sacrificed but it won't be release. Wala, e. Sabi kasi nila na hindi ka naman daw singing artist so they opposed to it."

"Sinabi ko na 'yan sa'yo, Blake."

"Yeah, yeah," he nodded. "However, we can still release it as another version of the song."

Umiling ako. Hindi pwede.

"Wag na, Blake."

"Pero gusto ko talaga kasi siya isama sa album ko. Kahit man lang mai-release as another version, Aria," he plead.
