Carmen stood there, pondering Tina’s words before saying “I see, so that’s the reason why? Because these past few weeks, I’ve been going over what happened again and again. And I couldn’t see where I had gone wrong and I concluded that Shane was at fault. I’m really upset at her but this puts things in perspective. It’s easier to understand now and oh, Shane really needs to believe in herself more. Well, what do I do now? I can’t be expected to make the first move can I?”

Tina laughed “Erm, I don’t know really. I’m hoping Shane will make the first move. But you might have to, knowing Shane, the only reason she hasn’t approached you yet is because she’s scared you’ll reject her and then you’ll be gone from her life forever.”

Carmen gave a wry smile “As if I could stand being away from her entirely, I’ve had to throw myself into gig after gig to avoid thinking about her. But some songs just sing to me and then I’m thrown back down memory lane. She was like EVERYWHERE.”

Tina clasped Carmen’s hands in between hers and said “Carmen, I know exactly how you feel, that’s how it was for me when I was away from Bette. Every little thing reminded me of her. And yes, some songs just speak to you right? In all truth, Bette apologized to me and begged for another chance using a song! We haven’t told everyone the exact details yet but yeah, that’s how I decided to take her back. Through a song! I really have music to thank in this case. Haha, well, I can see I’ve given you lots to think about, so I’m going to leave you now, and let you get back to DJ-ing. Think about giving Shane another chance alright?”

Carmen nodded and thanked Tina as Tina left the booth. “Wow, they got back together because of a song. Wonder whether it’ll work for me and Shane. I really need her back in my life. I just wish she would make the first move and tell me she loves me. I need to hear those 3 words again. Well, it’s worth giving it a shot.”

Carmen checked the playlist and noticed that quite a couple of fast dance songs had been played, she decided it was time for a slow love song. She flipped through her list of songs and settled on Katharine McPhee’s Terrified.
