Aspen sighed irritatedly and pulled his chair beside me. "Iyan ka na naman, eh. Can you listen?" He tsked.
Inismiran ko siya. "Masyado mo namang pinanindigan ang character mo. Isinabuhay mo talaga. Ano iyon? Para mas dama at totoo ang emosyon?" I sarcastically said.
"Ica, come on!"
I raised my hand in front of him. "Oh, no. Wait... You're doing everything para gumanda ang movie. How professional! I'm so so proud of you, Aspen! Sana matagal kang mamatay!" I exaggerated, smiling.
"You're not giving me a chance to explain!" pakikipaglaban naman niya.
"And I'm not going to give you one."
"Babe, please give me a chance to clear things up." He held my cheek with begging eyes. "You know you're very special to me."
I gave him a humorless smile. "I felt really special when you made me your mistress."
Aspen is my ka-love team. We just got developed in the middle of it all and he courted me. I said yes because I liked him. But I recently caught him with a girl. He made me believe I wasn't good enough, so he cheated on me. That because I didn't want to have sex with him he resorted to finding pleasure elsewhere. Turns out, I was the mistress all along.
Ayaw ko kasi ibigay kaagad ang sarili ko dahil... wala lang. Para may thrill. Gusto ko iyong basics muna. Tamang touch, tamang kiss, ganoon... Or maybe because I was afraid that if I gave myself, he would just leave me hanging.
3 years. 3 years kami... 3 years na pala akong kabit. I didn't know what to feel. How was his girlfriend feeling now? Hindi ko masikmura ang kagagawan ko.
Despite having had flings in the past, I never gave myself to any of them. None of them lasted more than a week. Not because I'm bored with them, but because they always wanted to do the deed right away, so I chose to abandon them. All of them, iyon ang habol. But that was fine because I gained experience from them.
Some try to return because they had fun with me, but I turn them down. They had their chance, but they blew it. It's not my loss, anyway. Ica na, sinayang lang!
After a long day of shooting, we finally ended it before night time. I tiredly rode in the tourist van of the resort I was staying in. Malapit lang naman iyon kaya madali kaming nakarating.
"May party raw mamayang 9 sa Requila." I heard the receptionist say while my PA was waiting for my keycard.
Nakatayo lang ako sa gilid, pouting dahil gutom na gutom na ako! Paano ba naman kasi iyong director, pagkatapos noong ilang beses na nabulol ako kanina, mas naging strikto sa akin at hindi na ako pinakain ng lunch! He made me focus on reading the script!
Kapal muks noon buti na lang malaki bayad sa 'kin sa movie na 'to! If I didn't need the money hindi ko tatanggapin itong series dahil napakapanget ng plot. Kabit-kabit lang as always! Walang bago!
"Panget na naman DJ niyan tulad noong nakaraan!" reklamo noong kausap niya. "Pass ako!"
"Maki raw mamaya," she informed.
"Passundo ako," pagtatama kaagad noong isa.
"Ang gwapo talaga noon! Panalo na naman iyon sa surf comp. Grabe, girl! 10 times champ na! Magaling din si Jericho, pero wala, Maki talaga ako!"
Parang pumalakpak ang tenga ko. Ang dami niyang sinabi pero may selective hearing ako at ang narinig ko lang ay ang salitang 'gwapo'. Gwapo? Saan gwapo? Para naman may blessing sa mata ko ngayong araw!
"Gia, saan daw party mamaya?" tanong ko agad sa PA ko pagkalapit niya sa 'kin.
"You can't party. May sunrise shoot," paalala niya agad.
