Chapter 26 PROUD
“OMG! Allison band is trending on Twitter worldwide!”
I smirked, feeling so proud of them. The first time I heard this group perform, I knew that people would love them. This band is a total package, aside from being so talented they also have exceptional looks that can make people crazy.
The boys just shrugged upon hearing the news. They are not like the other guys who are into fame. In fact, they avoid it. They are already busy as it is, they don’t have time for things like this.
“Should I start to get worried about this?” Lance commented.
Iya’s lips parted. “What?! Isn’t it good news?”
“You think so? I know that you are too busy with your love life to even realize that we never wanted fame. We are already busy with our businesses, we don’t have more time to spare for showbiz.”
Iya’s eyes widen at Lance. While Vince glared at him. I just shook my head. My cousin is so busy with his company but he has always time to gossip. Lance and Mike are true-blooded Marites (gossiper).
“What do you mean love life? Iya do you have a boyfriend now? Why am I not aware?” Andrew asks with his brow creased.
Iya blush and bit her lower lip. “No, I don’t have a boyfriend. Lance was just teasing me.”
“Are you sure that you don’t have a boyfriend?” Vince asked in a teasing tone.
Iya’s face reddened even more because of Vince’s teasing. Andrew, on the other hand, remains serious. The ever protective Andrew is here again.
“How sweet” Mike uttered while coughing.
Mike’s attempted teasing is my cue to change the topic.
“People are asking for your name guys. They only knew Andrew, Vince, and Lance.” I said trying to change the topic.
“When are you going to post the one that they perform a while ago?” Iya asks to help me to change the topic.
“I will send this recording to the marketing team tomorrow morning, then they will upload it tomorrow night,” I said.
“Then I guess you could put their names while they are playing,” Iya suggested.
“We could do that but, the team already shoot them in the studio before we left to Lush flagship store. That will serve as their intro video with their names on it.” I explained to her.
Iya and I were able to successfully change the topic. We went out of the studio to go to the pool area. We wanted to make most of the time now that we are all free from our schedule.
I saw Andrew and Iya talking. I’m sure it’s about Lance’s statement about Iya’s love life. I love my cousin so much but I really want to strangle his neck in times like this. He was no help at all.
Vince was looking at the two, I could see the worries in his eyes. I bet Vince also wanted to strangle the neck of my cousin right now.
“Are you okay Vince?” I asked.
“I am.” He replied still looking at Andrew and Iya.
“Andrew won’t bite, don’t worry about Iya. He was just too protective of her.” I said which earn his full attention.
I smiled and tap him on his shoulder. “It never crossed my mind that you like Iya. When did you start liking her?” I can’t help but ask.
Vince’s feelings for Iya are a big mystery for me. There is no sign that he has an interest in her, so imagine my shock when I found out about them.
“Since Andrew introduce her to me. I like her since then.” Vince said with his serious eyes.
My eyes widen a fraction from his revelation. “Why didn’t notice that?” I asked myself but loud enough for Vince to hear.
He chuckled. “You are too busy with Andrew to notice it.”
“I doubt that. You are just god in hiding your feelings since you are an actor.” I said defensively.
“Admit it, Alli. Your attention is solely for Andrew. You already failed in Lieo. You made yourself believe that Lieo likes Anne, when the truth is, you were the one who Lieo likes.” Vince said then smirked.
I was not able to answer him because what he said is true. Maybe he was right, I was unaware that all my attention was only towards Andrew, that’s why I fail to see Lieo’s feelings for me and Vince’s feelings for Iya
“Should I apologize?” I asked a bit unsure.
Vince laughs and messes with my hair. “No, silly. I understand. But I hope you won’t cut us when you are dealing with your broken heart.”
“I know, that was so immature of me. I’m really sorry about that. I won’t do that again, I promise.”
The night went well. I was not able to have alone time with Andrew that’s why I failed to tell him about Anne. I was planning to tell him everything on our next date, next week. We were too busy for the whole week though he said that he will try to visit me at home to spend just a little with me. I know I could tell it to him in those times, but I think the information I got about Anne could still wait until next week since I only have a little amount to spend with Andrew this week, I want that moment to be just him.
It’s a bit frustrating because I wanted to tell Andrew about it, but I guess it wasn’t the perfect time yet.
As expected, Allison band’s song cover is a huge hit. We got fifty million views in just one day. We never got that kind of view in all the videos we uploaded. I think the highest views we got for one day is five million and that was my interview with Noah. I can’t believe they surpass Noah!
“I was beaten by your boyfriend!” Noah said on the phone.
“It was not just Andrew okay?! They are five of them in the video. Of course, they can beat you.” I said in a teasing tone.
“Are you consoling me or what?” He said, I could imagine his annoyed face.
“Of course not! I was being logical here. Plus you know how the Filipino fans are so active when it comes to things like this! They would always want to set a record.” I reasoned out.
“Point taken. Ava was asking for the other vocalist’s name.” Noah suddenly asked.
My eyes widen a fraction upon realizing who was he referring to. “Why is Ava asking about Lieo? Did she likes Lieo?” I asked excitedly.
“Maybe? I’m not sure. You should ask her.” He said nonchalantly.
“I would ask her definitely!” I said while giggling.
I think Ava would be great for Lieo! Ava is way different from Anne. She was so easy to love.
“When are you coming back? I miss you my star.” He said in a sweet voice.
I rolled my eyes. “You can’t be like that to me when I come back. Andrew said that he will come with me when I go back. He will hate you when you act like that towards me.” I warned him.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
“Oh, really? I would definitely act extra sweet to you when you introduce me to him.” He burst out laughing and excited shrieked.
“Noah!!!”
“What?! Seeing his jealous face is fun!” He shrieked excitedly in the background again.
