A/N: play "Red" by Taylor Swift
Chandia Guebero
“Loving her is like
Driving a new Maserati down a dead-end street”
Nakaharap sa maraming manonood. Sinimulan muli namin ang pangalawang pagtatanghal sa entablado.
“Faster than the wind
Passionate as sin
Ending so suddenly”
Mabagal ang pagkaka-piano ni Beth habang tahimik lang na nanunuod ang mga audience.
“Loving her is like
Trying to change your mind once you're already flying through the free fall”
Nakapikit ang mata ni Hanz habang pinapakiramdaman at binubuhos ang kanyang buong emosyon sa bawat lirikang kanyang kinakanta.
“Like the colors in autumn, so bright
Just before they lose it all”
Napahinga ito ng malalim bago sinimulan ang kanyang sariling pags-strumming kasabay ng piano ni Beth. Mellow pa rin ang pagkakatugtog nila, kaya para makasabay sa malungkot na beat ng kanta, ginawang kulay blue na may halong red ang mga nakatapat sa aming ilaw.
“Losing her was blue like I'd never known
Missing her was dark grey, all alone
Forgetting her was like trying to know somebody you never met~
But loving her was~red.”
Muling tumugtog ang intro ng kanta at mas maingay na ito ng onti kumpara sa kanina. Lahat na ng aming mga instrumento ay tumutugtog.
“Touching her was like
Realizing all you ever wanted was right there in front of you”
Malalim ang pagkakakanta ni Hanz. Habang titig na titig sa audience.
“Memorizing her was as
Easy as knowing all the words to your old favorite song”
Tutok na tutok sa amin ang mga manonood. Kami ang pang-walo sa sampung grupong nagpakitang gilas sa stage ngayon.
“Fighting with her was like
Trying to solve a crossword and realizing there's no right answer
Regretting her was like
Wishing you never found out that love could be that strong”
Lumingon sa akin ng onti si Hanz senyales na back-up-an ko na siya. Nang magtama ang tingin namin ay agad pumasok sa isip ko ang mga salitang sinabi ni Clev kagabi.
“Losing him/her was blue like we'd never known
Missing him/her was dark grey, all alone
Forgetting him/her was like trying to know somebody you never met~”
Sabay-sabay kaming apat na kumakanta. Kahit na walang mic sa harapan nila si Kuya Eric at Beth ay rinig namin ang boses nila. Hindi nga lang kami sigurado kung rinig din ito ng judges at audience.
“But loving him/her was red (re-e-e-ed, re-e-e-ed)
Oh, red (re-e-e-ed, re-e-e-ed)
Burning red (re-e-e-ed, re-e-e-ed)
(Re-e-e-ed, re-e-e-ed)”
'Di tulad kanina na may halo pang asul ang mga ilaw na nakatutok sa amin, ngayon ay purong pula na ito.
“Remembering him/her comes in flashbacks
And echoes
Tell myself it's time now
Gotta let go
But moving on from him/her is impossible
When I still see it all in my head~”
Buong bridge ay sinabayan ko lang si Hanz gaya ng napag-usapan. Ngayon ko lang din napagtanto na maganda nga talaga ang blending ng boses naming dalawa…at tama si Clev sa sinabi niya.
