I knocked 3 times
"Pasok!" bored na sigaw ni Nova. Nakatayo lang ako dito sa labas ng HQ ng 4 shadows. Papasok ba ko o hindi?
"Pasok sabi!" sigaw uli ni Nova. But im still standing and not moving. Yeah, magandang plano to Ray.
"Sabing pa-- RAILEY?" Sabay na bulalas ni Lelouch at Nova ng buksan ko ang sliding door.
"Ahm. Surprise" I said awkwardly.
"Anong ginagawa mo sa HQ namin?" tanong ni Lelouch sabay lapit sakin. Itinapat ko sa mukha nya ang pamphlet
Narinig ko naman ang pagak nyang tawa.
"Seryoso ka?" at binigyan nya ako ng naloloko ka na bang look.
I nodded and gave them my serious face.
"Ah. Hehe. Kung seryoso ka man. Kelangan namin ng vocalistang babae at hindi ka naman sasali kung wala kang talento sa pagkanta" paliwanag ni Lelouch.
Takang ekspresyon ang isinagot ko at ganun din ang isinagot nya sa akin.
"Woah. Dont tell me, wala kang talent sa pagkanta. Oh, eh, ano pang ginagawa mo dito Ray" singit ni Nova.
"Una sa lahat, nandito ako para sumali, pangalawa, ayokong tinatawag akong Ray" dahil si Hyung lang ang may karapatan.
"Pangatlo, talento ko ang pagkanta kaya tanggapin nyo na ako" inis kong litanya.
"Then show it to us"
"Huh?" Lelouch smirked.
"Railey Ramirez, hindi ito ang oras ng paglalaro. Kung pumunta ka dito para guuhin ulit kami, stop it."
"Look, I already said sorry right. At hindi ako pumunta dito para makipaglaro, Im serious about joining your fucking band."
Tumayo naman si Andrada at naglakad papuntang pinto.
"Im just wasting my time" malamig nyang sabi at akmang lalabas na. No choice Ray.
When I was younger I saw my daddy cry And curse at the wind.
He broke his own heart and I watched As he tried to reassemble it.
Pikit mata kong pagsisimula. Tumigil naman silang kumilos.
And my momma swore
That she would never let herself forget.
And that was the day that I promised
I'd never sing of love if it does not exist.
Nag aalinlangan pa akong ituloy pero nagpadala na lang ako.
But darling,
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
I sighed.
Maybe I know somewhere deep in my soul
That love never lasts.
And we've got to find other ways to make it alone.
Or keep a straight face.
And I've always lived like this
Keeping a comfortable distance.
And up until now I have sworn to myself
That I'm content with loneliness.
Because none of it was ever worth the risk.
Well you are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
You are the only exception.
Tiningnan ko sandali si Andrada and he motioned me to continue. Okay.
I've got a tight grip on reality,
But I can't let go of what's in front of me here.
I know you're leaving in the morning
when you wake up.
Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream.
Oh-oh-oh-ohhh.
You are the only exception. [4x]
You are the only exception. [4x]
And I'm on my way to believing.
Oh, and I'm on my way to believing.
"So how was it?" tanong ko dahil they are still not moving.
Lelouch is looking at me like Im an alien who just speak in an alien language.
Tinaasan ko sila ng isang kilay.
"That's so WONDERFUL!!!" sigaw ni Lelouch sabay yakap sa akin.
Hindi ko sinasadyang sikuhin sya sa mukha.
"Ouch. WTF?"
"Sorry, self defense I guess" He hissed but then he smiled.
"Welcome to the band Railey Ramirez" nakangiting banggit naman ni Nova at inakbayan kami ni Lelouch.
Hindi ko sinasadyang hilahin patalikod ang kamay nya.
"Ouch. Let go of me!" daing nya. Binitawan ko naman sya at akma nya akong yayakapin ng itaas ko ang kamao ko. He raised his two hands as a sign of giving up.
"Ang brutal mo naman Railey" Ang brutal mo Ray bigla kong naalalang sabi ni hyung. Ugh.
"So yeah. Welcome again" Bati ni Lelouch sa akin. Tumango tango naman si Cast na kanina pa nakatingin sa akin.
"Not bad" litanya ni Andrada at umalis na sa HQ.
"Oh well, as a formal introduction. Im Johannes Lelouch, the lead bass guitarist" as expected.
"Christian Nova, drummer" nakangiti nyang saad at kinindatan naman ako ni Nova.
"Ravi Cast" I know, sya ang vocalist. Duhh. His family is well known in the music industry
"the keyboardist and backing vocal" nagtatakang tingin ko kay Lelouch.
"So dont tell me"
"Yes! Xenon Matthew Andrada, in charge of Rhythm guitar and the lead vocalist" I blinked few times.
Impossible
"Possible." nakangiting sabi ni Nova.
