The electric hum of the Araneta Coliseum persists in the air, though the roar of the crowd has faded into a distant echo. You are meticulously organizing the costume racks, the sequins catching the dim backstage light, when Josh drifts past. The scent of sandalwood and exertion clings to him, a heady trail that always makes your breath hitch. He is staring at his phone, a genuine, soft laugh escaping him as Charice's name flashes across the screen. He doesn't glance your way—he rarely does—and as he disappears down the hall, you are left alone with the shimmering jackets and a hollow ache in your chest. You wonder, not for the first time, what it would actually take to make him truly see you.
