"Julie hey are you okay?" Rhoy asked.
"Ha? May sinasabi ka ba Rhoy?" Julie said and looked up at him.
"Okay ka lang ba? Kanina ka pa tulala dyan gurl." Rhoy said.
"Ah- eh oo medyo kinakabahan lang." Julie said.
"Hay nako bakit ka kinakabahan this is your day kaya you should look stunning para lalong mainlove sayo jowa mo." Rhoy said and started to retouch Julie's hair.
"Kaye lika nga dito retouch mo make up ni Milabs."Rhoy called Kaye.
"Julie bakit ang lutang mo today? Kung kelan importante yung araw para sayo saka ka naging lutang." Kaye said.
"Kulang lang ata ako sa tulog Kaye don't mind me na lang." Julie said and gave her a weak smile.
"Hay nako gurl wag kasi masyadong workaholic." Kaye said.
"Maybe I should really take a day off." Julie said.
"Tama ka dyan milabs tara mag palawan." Rhoy suggested.
"I'll talk to my manager muna tapos pag pwede tara." Julie said.
"Stand by ka na Jules any minute pwede ka na tawagin ng floor director." Kaye said.
"Rhoy..." Julie called.
Ramdam ni Rhoy na kanina pa may gustong tanong si Julie sa kanya.
"Yes Milabs?" Rhoy said while fixing her hair.
"Si Elmo?" Julie asked.
"Ha?" Rhoy said and stopped fixing her hair.
"Si Elmo nasaan?" Julie asked again.
"Milabs okay ka lang ba talaga? The last time I checked kasi allergic ka sa pangalan na Elmo." Rhoy said.
Dun nahimasmasan si Julie, Matagal na nga pala silang hindi naguusap ni Elmo and all the thoughts that clouded her head was all memories from the past.
"Ah wala wala forget what I asked." Julie said and Rhoy just shrugged it off.
"Miss Julie concert will start in 5 minutes po stand by na po kayo sa may LED screen." The floor director said.
"Sige po thank you." Julie said and gave the floor director a smile.
"Goodluck Miss Julie." The floor director said before walking out of the dressing room.
"Milabs Goodluck alam ko naman na yakang yaka mo yan ikaw pa." Rhoy said.
"Thank you Rhoy." Julie said and hugged Rhoy.
"Julie keep your thoughts together, you still have a concert to fulfill wag kang puro memories from the past." Julie said to herself.
"I can do this." She said before stepping on the stage where she's gonna have her 15th year anniversary concert.

"Claws, hey claws wake up." Elmo called trying to wake her younger sibling.
"Hmm bakit ba kuya can't you see I'm sleeping." Clara said in a sleepy voice and covered her head with a pillow.
"Hey Clara come on we will be late." Elmo said.
"San ba kuya?" Clara irritatedly got up from bed.
"It's Julie's concert today diba? And you asked me to accompany you." Elmo said.
"Kuya I won't go naubusan ako ng ticket remember? And as if naman mom will allow me diba? Like duh." Clara said and rolled her eyes at her brother.
That hit Elmo bakit nga ba niya naisip na pupunta si Clara ng concert ni Julie eh matagal naman na silang hiwalay?
"Oh sorry Claws sige tulog ka na lang ulit." Elmo said and gave Clara a weak smile.
"You miss her don't you?" Clara asked.
"Ano bang pinagsasabi mo Clara alam mo kulang ka lang sa tulog kaya you should just go back to sleep." Elmo said and went out of Clara's room.
"Fuck I thought it was the present, how could I be so pre occupied by her na umabot sa point na akala mo yung past mo eh ang present." Elmo said to himself.
"Get your shit together Elmo stop thinking about your memories from the past, you both had the chance but I guess we aren't really meant to be..." Elmo said to himself.
He just went back to his room and made himself busy by writing songs that maybe in the future he would release.

"If the world gave us another chance would you take it?"
I guess not all second chances are happy endings, some are just lessons that you need to learn in life, some are just for closure, and sometimes it's okay not to take the risk again it does not mean you are coward it just means that you are moving on from your past life and you already had enough lessons to learn from the first time around.
Second chances are rare and your lucky if you are given one but it does not mean that if you are given the chance you would instantly grab it, Think, assess things, ask yourself if you are still willing to take the risk, Ask yourself if this chance is worth...if it will make you happy and if it will make your heart contented then go for it, but then at the end of the day it's still a matter of luck if your second chance would be for the better or for the worst...
