'Til Your Last, Melody.

Track 1

Chapter 1

Music is the instrument for me to escape from all the bullshits in my life. It gives me the peace of mind that I will never get in the reality. Music can manipulate my emotions; from the saddened one, into the rare rock punk side of me. But do you know what's the real drill? I AM NOT A GOOD SINGER. I can't sing and I don't even know how! It feels like music is into me but singing is not! I am terrible with it.

"Wanna hang out with us later?" My bestfriend Lance with a grin on his face.

"Ahmmm I don't know man! I already have a plan," I replied. I saw how Lance face changed. Parang nanlumo si gago but I'm used with this. Aayain niya kong mag bar and I always rejected it.

"Mannn! You always spend your whole fucking night in your own room while glued to your freaking phone!"

Here we go again. He's making a scene, and that is bullshit! "Tatapusin ko na panooring yung Lucifer para masimulan ko na yung mga new netflix ser— "

"And you called that as a plan?! what the hell is wrong with you?!" He is overreacting!

Lance and I often argue because we have different views on life. He loves attention, he is a crowd pleasing actually. He has the face, the body, the wealth and he also had a overflowing confidence. Whereas I prefer to just to be lowkey. I don't like places that are crowded. In fact, I only just go to school and my condo, and if I have time I'm hanging out at the booksale to read or buy a new book.

"Yeah! That's my plan for this night!" I packed up all of my belongings and I walked towards the exit of this library.

Dito ako madalas tumambay, well actually hindi lang ako pati na din si Lance eh dito na din natambay. Freshmen days pa lang eh dito na ang nagiging lugar pampatay oras namin. I love reading novels so this is the best option for me to kill my time with. Si Lance? He's into sports kaya ang madalas lang niyang gawin dito eh ang matulog. Kaya if ever na hinahanap namin ang isa't isa, dito agad kami tumitingin.

"Wait mannn!" Lance grabbed my shoulder.

I know that he will not let this night happened without me enjoying their victory. Lance is the captain of the swimming team in our university. And last week they won the competition that they are longing to achieve for.

"Come on! Don't be a party pooper! Kahit ngayong gabi lang oh! Pagbigyan mo na bestfriend mo!" I looked at his face that shows of a child was as bright as a spoiled candy.

"You know that I hate parties Lance!"

"I know! Wait wha— it's not that kind of bar na tumatakbo sa isipan mo. It is a simple bar na may nagpeperform na mga acoustic band everynight." And now he is smiling! He's weird!

I don't heard this kind of bar before ah! I mean I know Lance very well. He used to go in the bar where the speakers will cut your eardrums off, where there's alot of people are dancing in the shadow of the beat and lights, and where you can find beer anywhere! So hindi ko alam kung maniniwala ba ko dito sa bestfriend ko.

"You must be kidding me?!" I burst into a laugh. "Kilala kita Lance! You're not up with those kind of bar!"

"I swear! Sumama ka na para maniwala ka! You love music right? then why don't you support local bands?" He is now confidently looking at me.

I do support local bands okay! Fuck?! He is using a card against me! You son of a bitch I'm in!

"Fine! fine! fine! Sasama na ko nang matikom mo na yang bunganga mo!" I don't have any choice! He won't stop asking me till I give up.

"Like for real? Holycow!" Bakas sa mukha nito ang pagkamangha.

"Yeahh! I do have a class so just text me the time and place! I will be late!" As I walk passing him by.
