That One Thing

Chapter 24

"Saan ka nagpunta?" When Riosh arrived at the studio, Froi asked him a serious question.

Riosh did not respond. He sat on the couch and continued to read his lines for our song later.

Natawa ng sarkastiko si Froi at pabalang na ibinagsak sa sahig ang hawak niyang papel. "Ayos! Nagtatanong ako ng maayos tapos hindi ako sasagutin?"

Kumunot ang noo ni Riosh at tinignan si Froi. "It doesn't matter where did I go. Don't interfere my personal walks. Hindi naman ako nagtagal, 'di ba?"

Siniko ako ni Kyron at umiling ito. Si Sergio na nasa tabi ni Kyron ay hinihilot ang sintido at mukhang pagod na pagod. We've been practicing for about 8 hours and haven't gotten enough rest.

"Oo na! Makalabas nga muna at makapagyosi bago pa ako mabadtrip!" Froi was irritated and exited the studio.

"Tsk! That kid need some manners. Mas lumala ang ugali niya simula nang mabugbog ni Sergio." dismayadong sabi ni Mr. Richard. Umiling ang katabi niyang si Densel.

"He deserves to be beaten by Sergio; I can't stand him any longer!" sabi ni Kyron na sumandal sa couch.

"Sergio, are you okay?" tanong ko at binalingan si Sergio. Tumango lang ito at hindi nagsalita.

After many hours of practice, we went to a charity event to perform and sing our three new release songs. We started at 8:00 p.m. and finished by 10:00 p.m. Maraming fans ng That One Thing ang nandoon rin para bigyan kami ng suporta, some of them are teenagers and younger children who like us.

Froi gained a lot of followers after fans discovered why Alyssa and her group humiliated Sergio in our mall show. Si Sergio ang lumalabas ngayon na kontrabida sa dalawa, however, this is not a sufficient reason for him to lose popularity after Riosh; in fact, his bad publicity helps him become popular and attract more fans. Iyong "bad boy" side raw ni Sergio ang nagustuhan nila and they think its cool.

Naiintindihan ko si Sergio kung bakit niya nasaktan si Froi dahil ito naman ang nauna, but I'm a little jealous that he's now courting Alliah and that Alliah has allowed him to do so. Hindi rin nagtagal ang galit ko kay Sergio dahil wala naman siyang ginagawang masama at nagmamahal lang katulad ko.

Pero, nasaan ang ipinangako ni Alliah na hindi muna siya magboboyfriend at pag-aaral ang uunahin? Nang dahil lang gusto niya si Sergio ay pumayag na siyang magpaligaw?

I've never been jealous in my life. I've been in relationships, but I'm not the type to fall head over heels for a girl. My situation with Alliah is different; over the last few months, my feelings for her have grown stronger while she is still living with us in our apartment. And as we celebrated her 19th birthday with a surprise debut theme party in our rented hotel venue, I grew more attached to her.

Her sweet demeanor, beauty, and stunning body, among other things.

I'm so fucked up big-time!

Pagkatapos naming magperform ng banda ay kumain kami sa restaurant kasama sina Mr. Richard at ang P.A naming si Densel. Binilhan naman ni Sergio ng take-out food ang nililigawan niyang si Alliah in case na hindi pa raw ito kumakain.

Nasasaktan ako dahil alam kong sa umpisa pa lang ay wala na akong pag-asa kay Alliah pero ano'ng magagawa ko kung wala siyang nararamdaman para sa'kin at si Sergio ang gusto niya?
