Chapter 5 Reminiscing the past part 1
Chapter 5
Nathalie
When I am alone my past will always flash back in my mind.
Although I wanted to forget the moment I close my eyes.
It will always appear in my mind and my memories will come back like I'm watching a movie.
Lance is my first kiss, the first of my all but he is not my boyfriend.
That is why I am not happy with what I did before.
Maybe it's because I am young and innocent during that time and think that what I did will just pass as the days went by.
But I'm wrong! The past always hunted me and I find it difficult to sleep at night.
And now that I am alone in this cold room of mine.
The memories from the past are still fresh and I always remember those days with him...
Flashback
"No way Dad! I only have one Mom. I don't like her! How could you do this to my Mom?" I ask while crying.
My Dad brought his girlfriend to our home and told me that they are getting married. And I have this gut feeling that he is cheating with my Mom and now that she is gone. He will bring that woman into our house.
Never! I will never accept her no matter what.
"Nathalie, you're overreacting! I told you that she is not my Mistress. I am happily in love with your Mom before and now she's gone and I found Clara and fell in love with her. Could you just accept the fact and accept her too?" My Dad is full of emotions while explaining it to me.
But my heart is already closed.
I only want my mom and nothing else. I don't want someone who will replace her!
I have only one Mom!
"I'm sorry Dad, but I can't accept that marriage of yours." Then my tears fall as I run and walked away.
My Dad pushes his marriage to Clara and that day I stow away.
I don't want to witness my dad being happy with the other woman while my mom is in the grave alone and lonely!
I don't know where to go. I left my car and just continue to walk. But I brought my wallet with me. Just in case I will be hungry, Then I can eat.
While walking I saw a disco club. And there are so many people waiting in line.
Is there a concert?
Out of curiosity, I bought a ticket and decided to watch it too.
This is the best way to ease my pain. And music can help heal my broken heart.
When I finally went inside I was amazed to see the beautiful club!
Not bad.
My ticket is in the front row. I wanted to see the concert clearly and hopefully, I will enjoy it later.
There are many young girls like me holding a light stick.
Maybe the band is famous as the whole stage is full-pack.
The lights went off then a fat man appeared in the middle.
"Are you ready Angels?" he shouted.
Then the girls wave their light sticks.
"Yes, we are ready! Go Omega Band. Omega Angels are here. Woohhhhh!" They answered excitedly.
The girls shouted that almost broke my eardrum.
The girls are all hype!
Although it's noisy I am enjoying the hyper young audiences of this so-called Omega Band.
And I am young too.
So I will enjoy this night also.
The fat man climbs down the stage and there they are the Omega Band!
Five young handsome boys went up and conquer the stage.
Their instrument is complete from piano to guitar. The other one is very good at violin too. But the singer caught my attention as I didn't expect him to wink at me.
Just WTF? And he is very handsome!
My heart skip a beat and I don't know why. His voice is so cool and had a good singing voice.
And now he is walking towards me?
I don't know what to do!
Well, just let him be.
Let's wait for what he is planning to do.
Then he stops in my seat and offers me his hand.
The girls are shouting happily.
They are saying to me to accept his hand.
Go, Girl!!! They shouted in chorus. And said that I'm lucky to be chosen.
Then, let's go singer boy!
We climb onto the stage while he continued singing the tune of Nothing's gonna change my love for you.
Looks like he is serenading me while holding my hand.
And I started to feel attracted to him.
It's the first time you met him and you like him already? Don't be a flirt! I scolded myself.
I looked into his beautiful eyes then he wink at me again.
And I almost drop my heart!
Sounds overreacting but that's how I felt at the moment.
The concert ended with excitement.
At least I forgot my Dad's wedding and I felt happy.
Now where to go next?
I'm hungry, so I look for the nearest restaurant.
And saw the Chicken Wingers and it looks clean and delicious.
But unfortunately, something happened. I can't buy the food.
My wallet is not in my pocket anymore!
It was gone. Somebody stole it!
What I'm gonna do now? I'm so hungry. My stomach started aching too.
I stow away and didn't eat anything until now.
Then my lucky charm arrives. It's the singer boy! I saw them at the end table.
I throw away my pride and walked towards their table.
The singer boy was surprised and thanked God that he remember me.
"It's you! At the concert right?" he asked happily.
"Yes, Can I talk to you for a moment?" I shamelessly asked.
I wanted to talk with him in private.
We went to the corner where there are no people.
"What's this? I'm curious Miss Beautiful," he said smiling.
His smile is like a magnet that pulled me towards him that I cannot explain.
"Ah, I'm sorry for disturbing you but can I borrow some money?" I ask feeling ashamed.
I should set aside my pride or else I will die of hunger!
He chuckled.
"Okay, how much? He asked.
Wow, that fast?
"This is what happened. I lost my wallet and I'm hungry. Just a piece of chicken wings will do." I answer shyly.
He just laughed at me.
"I thought that this is something serious! Let's go to our table and you can eat whatever you like." he invited me.
At this moment there's no time to be ashamed!
I joined their table and I eat five chicken wings.
I am not hungry!
"Thank you very much. I'll better go." I say goodbye.
I'm full and my stomach is not aching.
But where should I go?
I don't have money anymore!
"You're welcome, but it's still early. Why don't you join us? You know singing while drinking hehe." Singer Boy is trying to be cute
.
I'll go with them. I'm willing and determined to run away and never look back.
And thanks to Singer Boy and his friends I forgot my problems.
