Chapter 052
"Vienne, it's good that you're here," said Brother Dim who had just left the recording area. This time I saw Sebastian, but he didn't even look at me.
"Are you going to talk to me?" I asked.
"Yes Vienna, do you remember what I said last week about the Music Contest?" I nodded in response. What about that?
"Do you want to join the solo competition? The new members have already joined another category but in solo, no one has joined yet. The list of participants in the event must be submitted to the university board."
I was hesitant to join, not because I didn't have confidence in myself but because I just really didn't want to. I have no plans to participate in the singing contests that take place here at the university.
"Vienna, you have to join, we are here and we will support you," Liam said. Sebastian looked at me but with no reaction.
"The event is quite far, you can still prepare," Cedrick said. Geez .. it's annoying, I will be forced to join because of what they say.
"All right Brother Dim, I will join. But after that, I will not join in any singing competition here at the university," I replied as they all fell into silence. What's wrong with what I said? But it seems like nothing.
"But Vienna if you ever win the contest, you will represent the university in a singing competition and you will compete with other universities here in Manila," said Brother Dim.
'That's what I'm telling, that's why I don't want to join.'
"If it's ever, Brother Dim, we're still not sure if I will win. I'm leaving, my friends are waiting for me in the cafeteria," I replied and left the Music Club.
I have my reason why I'm not going to participate after the Music Contest. I decided to reveal my identity in public. I don't want to hide it for a long time, I already have a hard time. For sure if when I reveal myself to everyone, it will be an issue outside and inside the university. But I hope I made the right decision and I hope the outcome will be good. In the end, everyone will know the face behind the name VnM.
I just finished eating lunch and I am with them now who are currently eating the cookies and cupcakes that Sebastian gave me earlier.
"Vienna, are you okay?" Therese asked me.
"I'm okay, just eat there," was my only reply.
"You don't want it anymore? Isn't it delicious Therese? Sebastian is good at making cookies and cupcakes. You can taste that is filled with love," Michelle said with a shudder.
"Vienna is the one he gave to, of course, it had mixed with love. Did you taste it, Vienna?" said Therese. I just shook my head at what they were saying, they really had no to do but tease me.
"By the way friend, why did he give it to you? Then there's a teddy bear with it. It's not Valentine's and it's not your birthday. Did you ask him, friend?" Michelle asked, confused. I don't know what reason why he gave it. But I think he just make up because of what happened yesterday.
"No, I have no intention of asking him that. I don't want to be stressed and I don't want to know his reason anymore," I replied.
"Because you might be disappointed again?" Therese said making me silent.
"You know what, friend, you won't know if you don't try. But if that's your decision, we'll respect it. Sebastian is annoying, you won't know what's his motive and why he's doing this to you. He said he likes you but when you asked if what he said was true, he took it back and told you to just forget it. He confessed to you and then took it back, he's crazy," said Michelle. I just shook my head and covered my face because of what she said.
"Tine is straightforward. So Vienna is there an improvement in your relationship?" Therese asked while smiling.
I looked at the two of them but they immediately looked away from me. I think they are hiding something from me.
"Friend, don't pay any attention to what Therese said, just eat those cookies," Michelle stammered. I'm right, they're hiding something from me. From the face of my friend right now, I already know.
"Are you hiding something from me?" I asked seriously and folded my arms in front of the two of them.
"No friend hehe .. Therese is just joking, right?" Michelle replied.
"Yes Vienna, it's just a joke, you're too serious," Therese agreed while avoiding looking at me. I just looked at them so Michelle suddenly sighed.
"Okay fine, I'm sorry if we hid it from you. But we shouldn't have told it to you but Tine," Michelle replied. What does she mean?
"Michelle is right, we don't want to tell it to you first than Tine. We thought that he had already confessed to you but he hasn't," Therese added. What Tine will say to me?
"Vienna, the truth of that is ... um... Tine likes you," Michelle said to my surprise.
Does Tine like me? But why? I can't believe it. I thought he was just like that, kind, caring, sweet, and generous. I didn't even realize that he was feeling something for me.
"Didn't he go to the orphanage? We thought that he would admit it to you that night. Geez .. he's too shy, I thought he was courting with you," Michelle added.
I can't answer and I'm just thinking about the good things that Tine did to me. I suddenly remembered, when he invited me on a date, did he like me then?
"But Vienna let me just ask, how do you feel towards Tine?" Therese asked.
Tine is a very perfect guy and you would rather love him than hurt him. Yes, he's a kind, generous, and sweet person but I don't feel anything for him.
"I don't feel anything for him, it's just that he's just like my older brother," I replied.
"He didn't even admit but he's in a brother zone right away. Geez, Tine is nice and sweet, friend. You really don't feel anything? Does your heart even beat fast? Or maybe you've already become a heart of stone?" Michelle sadly said.
I've wiped my face because of frustration. I really don't want to talk about this matter because I have nothing to answer and I have no plans to enter into a relationship.
"Let's just leave Vienna, next time we'll ask her that again. Let's not stress Vienna, let her decide and let her think deeply," Therese said. Sebastian suddenly caught my eye. He was alone and he was just from the cafeteria.
'How do I really feel about you? Did I already like you?'
After lunch, we left the cafeteria. I plan to sleep in the room for a while, after all, it's still an hour before time. We are currently walking down the hallway and Therese is just clinging to my arm.
"Vienna."
"Hmm?"
"Did you have a boyfriend before you had an accident and you lost your memory?" she asked. That's also one of the things I want to know if I've ever loved or loved anyone before. I don't really remember anything about that thing.
"I don't know either, Therese," I replied.
"What if there is? What if he shows up to you within these days?" She asked again.
If there is, I should have known it before and I will know it from my mom and brother, especially my dad. But they didn't tell me anything about that. But who is Martin? Who is he in my life?
"Maybe it's because you don't feel anything for Tine, it's because you loved someone before and your heart still beats for him?"
What if her prediction was correct? What should I do? But why I can't remember him? Why mom didn't even tell me about him?
I'm confused, I don't know what to do to find out about it.
But what about Tine? What if he admits it to me? What should I do? I'm sure about how I feel for him, it's like he's just my older brother. But I'm not sure how I feel about Sebastian, whether I like him or not. How do I really feel about him? But I hope I'll know it before it's too late.
