"Hey, how long you want to laugh. Who's that person sending message to you?" Eachen glanced at the phone. I immediately hid it.
"Hmph! flirting again." he glare at me while combing his long hair. This gay! Arggh! I want to give him a kick!
I looked at my phone gain. This was a message he sent hours ago. I think I can memorize his message by reading over and over again.
-Hi Xiaoxiao, it's me Mingjun Are you free this
afternoon at 4pm? I have done something for
the first verse and I want you to hear it. Same spot?-
"Gosh, you're so excited there, not even
just a smiley. "Eachen interrupted.
"Hey girl, are you really gossiping?" I stared at him but I failed to look serious cause I can feel myself blushing all over.
I stared at the clock. 5 minutes to
4pm, and that was the longest 5 minute of
my life. The moment our professor dismissed us, I was in a hurry to fix my things.
"Hey, where are you going? Aren't you going in
next subject?"
I shook my head "Just sign me in."
"Hmph! You want to flirt again"
I laughed. I gave him a hug before leaving.
The field was a ten-minute walk from my classroom so when I got there I was already sweating profusely. I saw him sitting under the shade of the tree while playing his guitar. Even though I can't see his face because of his long hair, It's still such a sight to behold.
"Hi," I sat beside him. "I forgot my guitar."
"Hey, it's okay." He smiled, and shit, his smile is dazzling. "Here. Hear this out."
And just like that, he was again working his magic. With just a strum of his guitar, I was already lost in his rhythm.
He started the verse with his beautiful voice. The type of voice that he has is not the tune of voice that can make someone stop on his tracks, but every time his singing lasts, it gets better.
"Hmm...I was looking for some answers
that you wore
Dim lights, you're mine tonight
And all our clothes are on the floor
Stare me down
Hear the sound of thisw orld we ought to know
I'll make you go oh oh ooh...
Looking past this troubled glass
Of our lies we rise and fall
We aimed for faults to which we hold we go
Tonight... Tonight, tonight. Toni-iight.
Tonight tonight tonight."
He looked at me as a cue to sing with him,
and so I did.
"So is this love we're feeling?
Is this love we are trying to do?
Is this love we're makin?
Tell me is this love
I smiled...
or just another night"
Everything felt right, like this was supposed to happen all this time, like it was written on God's book.
I looked at the sun, and it's now already setting. And with mingjun's voice embracing me, everything felt perfect.

"Did you like it? Or do we need to change a
few more of the verses?" He stopped
playing his guitar and looked at menervously.
"It was perfect," I answered.
He sighed and smiled back.

Two guards came rushing to rescue,
Even one of them thought I was one of the
fans messing with Miguel and
started pushing me away.
"Hey, hey, don't touch her." Xudong immediately announced. "She's my friend."
The guard immediately released me and apologized. I just nodded at him. We were surrounded by two guards as if they trying to protect us from the commotion and urged us to start walking while the fans were still trying to take a picture of us.
"Sorry about that," Xudong said.
"It's okay, I understand that you're a big star now."
"Seriously, Xiaoxiao. I'm still the Xudong
you know, okay?"
I stared him while laughing. Now I understand why a lot of celebrities wear sunglasses, the flash of the camera is crazy.There are those fans who still state their love for Xudong.
Xudong was stopping from time to time to
entertain fans so it took us about 20 minutes to enter the hall. More guards blocked them so that they didn't enter.
The hall was full of different performers, musicians and artists. It's crazy!
Su wen approached us. "Where were you
guys?"
"Did you miss me right away?" Xudong winked.
Su wen sneered. "I don't really get it. why so many people like you. Come on, you two. "
We followed her as she led us to one of
the round tables. I felt overwhelmed with
the kind of world they're living. My eyes
started to search for Mingjun and every
second, my chest throbbed even harder.
I was disappointed when I saw all the band
members on the table, but he is not there.
Is he avoiding me?
"Bro, where is Mingjun?" Xudong asked, voicing out my thoughts.
They turned to us. "Xiaoxiao?" Kei's eyes widened on me. He's the band's bassist, and he lost so much weight. He's still wearing his glasses, but I almost not recognize him.
"Kei!" I gave him a high five, as well as Ou yang the lead guitarist and Fei ling, the one who plays the organ.
I was inundated with a lot of questions, I can no longer follow it!
"Wait, let Xiaoxiao sit down first, okay?"
I was surprised to see Ms. Lin in the last seat. I hadn't even noticed her before. Next to her was a man almost as old as she was.
Xudong pulled a seat for me and I obliged. Then he sat beside me.
"Where's Mingjun?" Xudong asked again.
"You know him" Fei ling replied
Xudong just nodded, and I was also dying to know where the hell he is.
"Do you know each other?" Ms. Lin asked
"Yes, miss!" Kei answered. "Xiaoxiao here, is a college friend... and..."
"Good! We've been looking for a female vocalist for a long time but no one really passed and when I watched her video, I know that the search is over." Ms. Lin smiled "So I'm offering her to be a part of the band."
They all looked at each other uncomfortably..
