A Song For Him

Chapter Four (4)

CHAPTER 4

Talkin’ to myself and feelin’old

Sometimes I’d like to quit;

Nothing’ ever seems to fit.

Hangin’ around, nothin’ to do but frown,

Rainy days and Mondays always get me down …

                                                From the song “Rainy Days And Mondays”

(Hi! I'll try to use POV in this chapter bear with me cos I'm not use to it 😏 )

Lynne's POV

“That’s ‘Honesty’ by  Billy Joel,”

“That’s a great song with a great message.

Before I play the next songs for the listeners requested, may ikukwento po muna ako sa inyo. It’s about two Erics, the genuine and the fake."

“Kahapon po kasi may bisita ako na nagke-claim na siya si Eric. He’s not lying about his name, Eric nga ang pangalan niya, Eric Francisco.

But sadly, hindi siya ang Eric na pinananawagan ko rito sa programa ko. Kapangalan lang niya and he probably thought that he had the right to trick me.

Pero thank God, nabisto ko agad na impostor lamang siya. Kung hindi, kawawa nama’ yong totoong Eric dahil sasama pa ang impression ko skanya.

Kakaunti na lamang ba ang taong mga honest ditto sa bansa natin? Can’t we be honest even on small things? Bakit kailangan n’yong magpanggap ?

Wala naman akong ino-offer na reward sakali mang kayo ‘yong taong hinahanap ko diba. Kung gusto niyong ako makilala’t maging kaibigan, you’re all welcome.

Magpunta lang kayo dito sa station and we’ll talk and don’t ever think na dahil kayo si Eric magkakandarapa na akong sumama sa inyo kahit saan.”

Grabe lang

Grabe akong naapektuhan kahapon akala ko makikita ko na siya.

Akala ko makikilala ko na siya yun pala puro lang din pala akala

kasi baka nga magkandarapa akong sumama sa Eric na yan pag nakita ko siya kasi I’ve always been a sucker for sentimental persons.

I really like a man who doesn’t hide his true feelings for a girl.

I like a man who says it’s mission in life to make a girl happy…

“So Eric, if you’re listening, I’m still looking for you. I know you’re not there, beneath the pale moonlight, and please, para  don sa mga pranksters, spare but I’m not too smart for you. No just kidding.

But I really want the real Eric. Kayo rin, may kilala akong mangkukulam at galit ‘yon sa manloloko.”

Ipe-play ko nalang yung last request ng mga listeners ko. Para lang naman ito sa mga broken hearted. Grabe ang akala ko tlaga makikita ko na siya
