"Sean andami mo nang nainom"
"Really Jah? 19 na tayo we can drink and party all we can!"
Justin doesn't feel right, hindi naman kasi sila sanay ni Sean sa inuman. Two years in college at ngayon pa lang sila napadpad sa bar na to. He looked at his watch, almost 10 pm na. He noticed Sean almost gagging and vomiting.
"Sean papasundo na talaga kita sa driver mo"
He texted Sean's driver at dumating naman agad ito.
"Sir Justin kayo po di pa kayo uuwi?"
"Ay mauna na po kayo ni Sean, I'll settle the bill muna"
"Sige po"
He signaled the waiter for the bill but noticed someone familiar on stage, ang schoolmate nya na muntik na syang matapunan ng kape the other day.
"Good evening everyone! Another friday night and of course let us all welcome Mr. Sejun Nase! with his original composition, Kumunoy"
Akoy nawawala gusto ko ng mawala ng lahat nang ito'y matapos na
Ginawa ko naman ang lahat pero di pa rin sapat ako'y hirap na hirap ng huminga
Bbbbababa
Kaya pa babababa
That distinct and raspy voice caught Justin's attention, but the lyrics made him listen eagerly. "Ako'y hirap na hirap ng huminga" those words echo inside his brain.
Di ko maintindihan
Tinik sa king lalamunan
Pano nga ba maibsan bigat na nararamdaman
He couldn't help but stare at the singer intently. He could feel the intensity of the performance.
Kumunoy itong pakiramdam na nasa kumunoy
Lalo lang lumalala pilitin ko mang lumangoy
Di pa ako nakakita pero alam kong ito'y kumunoy, kumunoy, kumu-kumo-kumunoy.
Justin could feel his heart tightened. "Kumunoy itong pakiramdam na nasa kumunoy" He wonders "Parehas ba kaming nasa kumunoy?"
