Pagkarating sa apartment na tinutuluyan ni EJ ay umupo sya sa harap ng piano nya.
He actually hadn't played it in a long time because...
"Cut it out EJ! There's no use thinking of her again!" pagalit nya sa sarili.
Naalala nya si MM.
Hindi nya rin akalain na aalukin nya ito ng piano lessons.
Naramdaman nya ang excitement ng dalaga na matuto.
Hindi nya namamalayan na napapangiti sya ng maalala nya ang pamumula ng pisngi nito ng hawakan nya ang kamay ng dalaga para tingnan ang mga daliri nito.
He actually liked the feel of her hand in his.
He shook his head.
Naalala nya ang usapan nila tungkol sa ex boyfriend ng dalaga na si Tanner.
Mukhang pareho sila ng dalaga na nasa moving on stage.
Maybe it's true what they say about misery loving company.
Maybe they can help each other move on?
Her from Tanner and him from Hope.
Pero hindi kaya delikado yon?
What if isa sa kanila ang mafall?
But then the other person is not going to catch you?
He doesn't want to commit the same mistake he made with Hope.
They were college best friends who fell in love or at least he did and he thought that Hope felt the same way when she said yes to him.
But then her childhood best friend came back and she realized that she still loved him.
That the truth is, EJ reminds her so much of him that she thought she loved EJ.
In short, ginawa syang panakip butas ni Hope!
He doesn't want that to happen again so it's better if he just remains a band mate to MM.
He looks at his watch and realizes that it's time to prepare for work.
He took a shower and got dressed.
Habang nagbibihis ay iniisip nya kung susunduin ba nya ang dalaga o hindi.
Bakit mo susunduin?
She's not your girlfriend!
At akala ko ba your relationship should remain as bandmates, no more no less.
Naalala nya yung suot ng dalaga ng sunduin sya nito ng unang araw nya.
Baka mamaya she's wearing something like that again and no one is with her!
So what?
Sanay na syang ganun ang suot nya sabi nya!
Kapag sinundo mo sya, baka mamisinterpret nya pa yung pagsundo mo!
She might think you're interested in her!
Bakit hindi ba?
Remember EJ.... treat her as a band mate!
Tapos na syang magbihis at agad na syang lumabas ng apartment.
Naglalakad na sya and he is still undecided kung susunduin ba nya ang dalaga.
Hindi nya namamalayan na malapit na sya sa apartment ng dalaga.
Nagulat pa sya ng bumukas ang gate at lumabas si MM.
Nataranta naman sya at biglang tumalikod.
Dali-dali syang naglakad papalayo.
Hindi nya rin maintindihan kung bakit ganun ang naging reaksyon nya.
Hindi pa sya nakakalayo ng marinig nyang may tumawag sa pangalan ng dalaga.
"MM! Hatid na kita!" alok ng kung sino mang epal sa dalaga.
Hindi naman nya mapigilan ang sarili na lingunin kung sino man yun!
