Rhythms and Skies

Fourth Step

"Ma'am, Beer?" The waitress asked.

Lumingon ako rito. I shook my head. "No, But I would like to order Nachos and Avacado Shake please. Thank you."

Muli akong tumingin sa stage kung saan may nag p-perform, the ambiance of this restaurant is quite good. It's not dull neither chaotic. Dumating ang order ko at nakinig lang sa mga bands. I don't even know why I'm here. I just felt...lonely. As if I don't feel that every single day.

I went to restroom to pee. Paglabas ko ay nagulat ako because I heard a familiar song. What's that again? I asked myself. I tried to remember what is it. Ah! Fierce.

Agad akong pumunta sa table ko. I watch them perform. They are really suited in stage. They have the spirits. I'd like to see them grow...more and more.

I didn't bother to greet them. Pagkatapos din nilang mag perform ay umalis na ako.

Thursday, I decided to stroll around La Glancè. I went in west side to grab some Coco Milktea. I ordered my favorite, Panda Milktea.

Pagkatapos noon ay pumunta ako sa La Glancè Main Park. Tumambay ako saglit doon at nag decide akong umalis na dahil nainip din kalaunan.

I drove without final destination. I don't know where my wheels will be taking me kaya nagulat ako sa sarili ko ng makita ko ang familiar na daan. Bumalik ako sa west side, on the way to Fierce place.

Why the heck Am I here? Napabuntong hininga ako at tinampal ang noo ko. "What the heck are you doing, Lilac?

Dalawang oras na mag-simula noong nakita ko sila sa Resto. I had strage feeling na I should go here. So I guess I'm here.

I was looking around. Nagulat ako ng sabay-sabay silang lumabas. Bakas sa mukha nila ang lungkot. They are holding a bag. Si Ruwen nga ay may dala pang maleta. Binitawan muna nila ang mga bag sa harap ng apartment pati ang ibang instrument nila. Pagbalik nila ay tinutulungan na nila si Indigo na buhatin ang Drums nito.

What the heck is happening? Bakit nila dala-dala ang mga gamit nila?

I started my engine and went closer to them. Bumaba ako sa sasakyan at lumapit sa kanila.

"Uy Lilac," Calvin was the one who first noticed me but he's not on his usual self.

"Lilac bakit ka nandito?" Tanong ni Ruwen.

Oo nga! Bakit nga ba 'ko nandito? I was asking myself the same question!

"Ano kasi—" I laughed awkwardly. "I was strolling around tapos I don't know why i'm here hehe."

Tumango-tango sila at hindi na 'ko pinansin. Omygosh! This is awkward. Ano ba kasing pinaggagawa ko sa buhay? Natampal ko ang noo ko.

"Putangina," Indigo cursed under his breath nanlaki ang mata ko dahil ngayon ko lang siya narinig na magmura.

"Paano tayo nito?" Rinig kong bulong ni Enjie.

Kinalabit ko si Ruwen. "What happened sa inyo?" Pabulong kong tanong.

Napakamot siya ng ulo. "Napalayas kami e," He gave me a small smile afterwards. His smile looks tired.

"May ma tutuluyan ba kayo niyan?" Tanong ko sakanila.

"Try ko sa amin," Flyn said.

Napatingin agad sila kay Flyn. Agad namang umiling ang mga ito lalo na si Enjie.

"Bro, wag na. We won't let you go back there." Ethan sincerely said.

Ngumiti lang si Flyn ng malungkot. He exhaled deeply parang wala ng magagawa.
