Chapter 4

"He's not totally blind at all. It's just a title he got from the world of art. He can create a very touching and memorable pieces. But the moment you'll ask him what are his inspirations about every portrait that he made, he will just roll his eyes and leave the stage."

"Ready ka na? Samahan na kita tutal malapit lang naman din doon yung pupuntahan ko."

She's too busy beating up her face. Sweaty neck that almost covered her neckline, wearing a formal dress just to see the results of the audition.

"O my, O my, O my! Dalian na natin! 50 minutes na tayong late! Okay lang yan pinaskil lang naman nila yung results sa labas ng Theater eh!"

Nagmamadali habang kumakabog ng mabilis ang dibdib. Hindi malaman ang mga susunod na mangyayari. Kung magkataon man na sya ay makapasok sa kumpetisyon, makikilala sya sa industriya ng pagkanta, at sa iba pang industriya na may kinalaman sa pagkanta.

"Ang dami paring tao Alice. Parang hindi pa nila pinapaskil yung results sa labas ah. Nako bilisan natin pati ako kinakabahan sayo insan."

They went forward, to the people who's waiting also outside. Waiting for someone to paste something at the bulletin wall, or to play something at the screen outside. From 4,000 plus, the committee texted the top 50 who'll wait at the outside of the theater and wait for the announcement of the final 15.

"Umm, Good afternoon folks! Sorry for the one hour delay. There was some final changes that needs to be made by the panel, and they were all done. Apparently, we can't go inside because of the preparation for the upcoming competition. Welcome to the announcement of the final 15 competitors who will fight for the crown, title, fame, and to introduce their exceptional talent to Center Stage!"

Center Stage is a international singing competition. Once you manage to get there, you'll have a big advantage to become a star at the singing industry.

"We will flash the results after I end my speech. Well what are y'all waiting for? Thank you and goodluck!"

The woman with a mic go inside and the big screen at the left side of the theater starts to have some text written on it. It was arranged alphabetically, the numbers start from lowest to highest but numbers doesn't mean anything. It was unanimously written at the screen. No average, no scores, only 15 names over 50 hopefuls waiting outside.

"Awweee wala ako!"
-Random person

"My God nagsayang lang ako ng oras!"
-Random person

Some of them were crying and very disappointed. Realizing that they didn't gave their best shot inorder to advance to the competition. But there's only one girl who's smiling infront of the screen while punching and pulling the hair of her cousin.

"Alice pasok ka! ARAY ANG SAKIT NA BITAWAN MO NA YUNG BUHOK KO!"

"WAAAAAAA O MY GOD THANK YOU LORD MAHABAGING LANGIT JUSMIYU MARIMAR ANAK NG SANTO SA PUSO AT DIWA NG MGA ANGHEL NA PINAGPALA SA TAAS! MARAMING SALAMAT!!!! WAAAAA NAKAPASOK AKO!"

She's jumping and screaming, not knowingly Limuel is already beaten up and lying at the floor, crying for her.

"Ang galing mo talaga pero sana hindi mo ako binugbog diba? Nakakaproud ka sobra pero hinay hinay lang baka--"

"Whopss hindi hindi wag mo nang sabihin. Walang masamang mangyayari sa akin kung magwala ako dahil sa tuwa. Tara mag buffet tayo sa korean kinemerut, ililibre kita!"

"Pero may pupuntahan-- hayss sige na nga! Libre mo diba narinig ko yon."

They left immediately after seing the results. Smile up to her ears, almost forgotten about something that might make her bad. Her best day for this year, 2025.
