Serendipity • Alden & Maine

(S:OS#7) Out of the Blue

Nagtetaping na sila ng My Bebe Love together. On their break, binisita ni Alden si Maine sa tent nya for them to get to know each other better. Nagdala pa sya ng Hawhaw, Koko Krunch at Mikmik na nakalagay sa isang box, something he usually does when he shoots with her. Nang nag-uusap na sila, nakatitig lang si Alden while listening to Maine's blabbers about life at sa mga funny experiences nya.

Maine, being always conscious when he always looks at her with his dreamy eyes, covered her face and looked away. "Oy, nakikinig ka pa ba sa'kin?" Tanong ni Meng.

"Ang ganda talaga ng boses mo." He unconsciously said. He was savoring these kind of moments; ang daming nagkakagusto sa babaeng nasa tabi nya yet sya lang ang nakakaexperience nito. Yung pakikipag-usap kay Maine ng ganito. Yung hinahampas-hampas pa sya nito pag natatawa sya, yung pinipingot sa tenga pag corny ang joke nya, and this very close encounter with her lalo na't iilan lang sila sa set na nakakarinig ng boses nya ng dire-diretso lang. Hindi nya lang kinoconsider ang sarili nya na swerte to hear a sweet voice like hers, he considers himself blessed dahil sya ang nakakasama nito out of all the people na nangangarap na maging nasa posisyon nya.

Maine silently thanked the Lord dahil naisipan nyang takpan agad ang mukha nya nung tinititigan pa lang sya ni Alden dahil ngayon, ramdam nyang lahat ng dugo nya ay pumunta sa mukha nya. Namumula na sya. She hates it when Alden just suddenly say something sweet in the middle of their conversations dahil nacacaught off guard sya at hindi nya alam kung anong irereply sa binata. Should she say "Ikaw rin" whenever he tells her she's beautiful? Should she say "Mas cute ka kaya!" when he comments on her funny antics? Or should she already say her true feelings for him? Hinarap nya na lang ito and composed herself. Kinurot nya ito sa braso. "Tigil-tigilan mo 'ko, Richard," sabi nya ng natatawa.

"I love you, Dei."
