Look only to Me

Scene 13

A/N : I'm not feeling proud with this chapter. I am sorry if the quality is a bit low na.. I don't have any excuse beside my limited English (and the lack of wifi so I can't check the online dictionary).. TT^TT

He doesn't care that he looks stupid as he is so out of it from his daze. He can't believe that Krist kissed him on stage. And that confession.. is too good to be true. Is he dreaming? He has an urged to pinch his cheek to make sure that he isn't. It would be such a shame and surely hurt so much if this is only a mere dream.

He walks almost aimlessly on the backstage, following the stream of people into the changing rooms. He half-consciously let P' Jane dragged him to his room, the manager of his muttering under his breath about naughty and troublesome kids. Not that he listened to any of it. he is in cloud nine right now. Even when someone badmouthing him, he won't even care.

..maybe if someone slapped him, they will get away with it. he'll even smiles at them, he thinks. Because it's only proofing that all of it is not a dream.

"Ai' Siiiiingg!" P' Jane snapped his fingers in front of him. once, or is it thrice? But he finally pulled himself from his daydream. He smiles sheepishly at his manager.

"Sorry na, Phi." He apologized.

P' Jane only rolled his eyes, for nth time muttering under his breath. Well, Sing only smiles innocently at him, acting like he didn't hear any of it.

"Honestly. What should I do with the two of you." His manager sighed.

"Aw. Phi, all is well in the end." Sing grinned, trying to placate. P' Jane only shook his head, though.

"Look at Krist, he is being scold right now." P' Jane tells him, pointing his fingers to the far away hall. And sure enough, when Sing turn his head to follow the direction, he can see Krist bowing repeatedly, over and over again. Sing can't help but frown.

"The director and producer asked me whether or not we know about the change. I said that I was sure we know nothing about it." P' Jane told him, his face looks apologetic.

Ouch.

..not that Sing can get angry with his manager to say it like that. The both of them is almost inseparable these few days, and P' Jane only told the truth. But now Krist is in trouble because of it. Sing took a deep sigh before steeling himself to go where Krist is.

"Sing? Where are you going?!" P' Jane almost screech gone to deaf ears as he walks forward. Faintly, he can hear Krist apologizing non-stop and it became clearer as he is nearing. He can also see P' Yui scowls when she glance at Krist, a clear evidence that she is also in the dark about it and disagree about what he did.

"-very sorry about it. it was a last-minute change." Krist repeated his excuse for God knows how much.

"I know that you might think that it was a good idea. But you must understand that you have to run though us first before doing it. it could jeopardize the event." The frown on the director's face etched so clearly he looks older than he actually is.

"I also must apologize about it." Sing smoothly enters the conversation. Krist body jerks in surprise as he slid to stand beside the younger man. His eyes widened as he looks at Sing's face, almost in disbelieve. Sing gives what he thinks is a reassuring smile, links their hands together and squeezed for a while. He wants to know that Krist is not alone.

"Singto?" the director raised one of his eyebrows, clearly judging him.

A slight yet charming smile of Sing was directed to the displeased director, then. He wore an apologetic face, and with a soft voice he began to explain. "It was really a last-minute idea. You might saw how we both so stiff when interacting for the last practice seasons. So to ease the tension, both of us talk about it in the morning through the phone. I'm truly sorry about this."
