Krist is hurrying down the stairs all fixed up, holding his car keys, almost bumping to Singto who was going upstairs.
"Got a gig?", Singto asked, looking at the fine man in front of him. He scanned him over from head to toe.
"Yes, P. See yah later", Krist replied, without stopping, almost leaping towards the door. Singto just followed him with a gaze.
Seems like not long ago, his Nong was still a cry baby who always follows him almost everywhere. They used to be neighbors but when Singto's mother died of cancer when he was in high school, they moved back to their ancestral home. That didn't stop Krist to keep visiting him though. Most of the time, Krist stays over. Krist somehow helped Singto cope up with the pain of losing his mom. Krist is such a goofy and talkative person. He never runs out of stories to tell. He is fun to be with. Singto's little ray of sunshine. He calls him little turtle because as Krist said himself, he looked like a turtle. Though Singto is calling him little turtle, Krist doesn't like it when someone else's does. He is kinda possessive of Singto, which the latter finds adorable. He treats his Nong dearly.
One day during his senior years in high school, he left Krist for a while in the park, where they were hanging out, to buy snacks. When he returned he saw a group of bullies, ganging up on Krist.
"You and your P'Sing have done it yet? Who's the top?", the gang leader asked mockingly. The three thugs were incircling Krist who was intently watching them, clenching his fist, preparing himself for a fight. Singto who was few steps away from them was also preparing to back his Nong up.
"I bet you're the bottom!", the bully continued, grinning obnoxiously.
"Tootsie! Wanna try me?", another bully spoke, doing a humping motion, looking at Krist pervertively.
Singto being a protective P couldn't hold it anymore, he ran towards the bullies and gave them a flying kick. The gang were startled at first but managed to get back up. Punches were flying everywhere after.
Singto is actually a black belter in Taekwondo so the bullies were left black and blue.
"Leave my brother alone! You disgusting pieces of shxts!" he threatened them.
Singto became even more protective of his 'little bro' since then. Krist began acting weirdly from then on. Though he still followed him to the University, they hung out less than before.
"I don't know what happened. Why you suddenly became cold and distant. I really miss the way we were, little turtle.", Singto whispered to himself, then continues to get upstairs and into their room. He lost interest to do anything. So he decided to stay in their room. He wants to play music to kill time. Then he remembered that Krist was listening to a music last night. He looked for Krist's ipod and earphones.
He opened Krist's vanity drawer and saw what he was looking for. He smiled, then went to his bed and laid down. He scrolled over the not to many list of songs and found out it was all Krist's compositions.
"That little turtle is really talented.", he uttered to himself.
The songs are mostly chill and calming to the ears.
He played a song with the title
'Let Me Be That Somebody'
"I want to be the one to care for you when you looked sad.. I want to be your shadow when you're alone.. I want to walk beside you when you need someone.. When you're alone.. If you are down and out.. When your problems are taking their toll.. If you ever need somebody to be there and comfort you.. Let me be that somebody who is always concerned about you.. Even if I'm the last person you look to.. I'm just hanging in the background.. Waiting for you to come around.. Wanna be the one you turn to when you feel down.. I just wanna be by your side.. Get in my car and go for a ride.. I will do whatever it may take.. Even if it means there are some rules I gotta break.. I'm going to be there for you, make no mistake.. I'm gonna hold you in my arms and never turn away..
I want to be the one to care for you when you looked sad.. I want to be your shadow when you're alone.. I want to walk beside you when you need someone.. When you're alone.. If you are down and out.. When you're problems are taking their toll.. If you ever need somebody to be there and comfort you.. Let me be that somebody who is always concerned about you.. Even if I'm the last person you look to.." the music went on. Lulling Singto to sleep."Ah. This song is beautiful. How did he come up with this? This is full of emotions. I can feel the sincerity.", he wonders.
Singto heard Krist's familiar voice spoke just as the music is fading.
"I wish I could tell you all these myself"
