I was not so happy thinking about Ivana who might show up here wearing those miniskirts and shirts that reveal everything.I played the guitar with Hinn Carlos but I didn't stop glancing around for any sight of Ivana.Although I didn’t want to think of it, now I was worried, I shouldn’t have walked away like that, I should have still wait to drive her over here, the thoughts of her getting into a bus and having those boys stare at her in a flirtatious manner was now getting me worked up.It was fun here, crowded with a lot of people who were not only here to listen to our music or watch the show but also to ogle at us, they were flashing me and Hinn Carlos smiles but I was only distracted scanning the place for Ivana.After performing, I stepped out from the crowd. There were a lot of people here and it would be hard to find Ivana in the crowd. This was an outdoor show, it was different from the school show where I could spot her.I glanced at the event list, after my performance with
I never thought I would think back to those days again, it was a pain that my dreams remain dreams.It was funny how you only hope for something and hold onto it in your heart but can't catch it.Just like the days ahead, just like waking up, just like the air you breathe and just like the future you expect but gets something else in return.My dream has only been just one, to make it up on stage and get those lights flashing on me while the crowd erupts with cheers, but, those dreams stayed as dreams, just a few days to make it up there, it all got drained like the sand in the sea.Although the pain was lasting, the hurt still felt sore, but I still had something to hold onto, I still got that dream I couldn’t achieve two years back, that hope that I would one day stand on stage still lingered within me and that was what I have decided to leave in my heart."Ivana, you will burn down this house!" I heard my name and turned around just to see Robin turning off the gas. I have been sta
I gently opened my eyes as the bright light coming in from the window blinded me, I squinted and turn away from the window, I looked over to my mother who was holding me next to her, I took in the environment where I was and it drew to me that I was still at the hospital and then…“Dad,” I muttered as I raised my head from my mother’s shoulder immediately. “Where is dad?” I asked her since I couldn't find him on the bed he was lying on before I fell asleep, I had cried so much last night, and right now my eyes sting.“The doctors took him for a second surgery.” My mother squeezed my hand gently and I looked into her eyes searching for the pain I saw last night but it was not there anymore. “He will be fine after this surgery Ivana, he awoke from a coma before now.”My eyes dilated, was it when I was asleep? My father came out of the coma, this was good news then, I couldn’t say a word, I just embraced my mother closely and she gently patted my hair.My eyes flickered to the doorway an
“What are you staring at?” The voice came again and the man who had I was surprised to see here leaned close to me, I shut my eyes immediately and waited for the inevitable.Was he going to kiss me as he did in the car? His lips had already brushed on mine, that wasn’t a real kiss, he was going to go for a real kiss before I clasped my lips with my hand. This time he was going to do it even when I shut my eyes.I heard him laugh and I opened my eyes, he was mocking me right now, how foolish and childish. “What are you thinking this time, do you have one of those nasty imaginations in your head again?” He shook his head as he leaned back to the bench he sat on.“Why are you here?” I asked him, I was not expecting to see Robin here, his mother was here and it wasn’t long before we were just talking about him. Was he here to see me?“Why else?” He turned his eyes at me again and I pressed my lips together, he was here to see me, he has a heart, this cold devil has a heart. A smile was be
I gasped and turned to Kate. “What is he doing here?” I whispered, but before I could hear Kate’s response Hinn stepped in holding a flower in his hands.“Sir, I heard what happened, I am Ivana’s friend and stopped by to see you.” He told my father and I pressed my lips together when he put down the flower on his hand on the table.“Why does he have a flower in his hand?” I asked Kate in a whisper and she shrugged and whispered in my ears.“I told him it was stupid to come to visit a man with a flower and he said it is the French ways, also that he could give it to you instead, but I guess he is embarrassed now and can’t do that.” Kate, who was in tears a few minutes ago, sniggered and I couldn’t help but join her. Hinn was just so adorable, unlike Robin…I paused in my thoughts when I looked over at Robin and noticed he had his hands across his chest and was staring at me coldly, I rolled my eyes when he had said those words about doing what I wanted without wishing at the field I ha
“Will you be my girlfriend?” I heard Hinn ask her and I could feel my muscles stiffen. I was expecting him to give her the flowers and get over it, but he went on with a long series of confessions about how he can’t stay a day without thinking of her, which had already bored me to death.The funny aspect of it all was that Ivana looks like someone who was struck by lightning and I could tell her head was in the clouds right now as she looked at Hinn Carlos with big purples and parted lips. She must be expecting this, she had this thought all in mind after what I told her in the car a few days ago.“Will you be my girlfriend?” Hinn asked again and this time a smile spread through her lips, she didn’t glance at me, she only had her eyes on Hinn Carlos, she must be in one of her imaginations, but the reason I was here was to wake her up.Before she could say the words I already had in mind she would say, I applauded loudly to grab their attention and it did. They all shot me a glare as i
I walked down the hallway slowly as his words kept repeating in my head, I would laugh it out and then shake my head to push it off, but anytime I did the light kiss that he had planted on my lips in the car would flash through my mind.The words he had said to me in the car ‘Don’t you dare tell Hinn Carlos that you love him’I leaned on the staircase repeatedly shaking my head, my mind was clouded, the words Hinn Carlos told me, the words Kate told me and the words Robin told me all mixed. I rub my hand through my eyes.“Is there something wrong?” I heard Mrs Jane’s voice and quickly looked up, she was staring down at me and my heart skipped a bit, had Robin told them what he wanted to tell them. “Are you okay?” She held my shoulders and examined my face.“Yes,” I said sharply like I was awoken from a daydream.“Your father will be fine, so don’t worry.” Mrs Jane said tenderly and a smile spread through my face, she might think I was still thinking of my father.“I know, thank you ve
You belong to me and no one else!“Ivana.” I heard my name as someone touched my shoulder. I looked up at the person like a stiff wood who was only whirled around to be cut off by the owner. “Are you okay?” Hinn shook my shoulders lightly pulling me from my thoughts.“Ivana, are you okay, I just saw Robin walking away with smiles on his lips, is there something exciting? Tell me.” Kate asked with a smile on her lips.They must have seen Robin while coming here. Kate said he was smiling, should I be happy that the devil was trying to tempt me while tricking me at the same time? Or have I succeeded in what Kate had told me before the audition practice?I wanted to tell that to Kate and let her tell me what Robin was thinking or what was wrong with me, but Hinn Carlos was here and I decided to seal my lips.“Ivana.” I heard Hinn’s deep voice call my name again, his hands were still on my shoulder and he was staring at me closely, I was still silent and I know if I didn’t speak up they ma
