Photography In Love

EPILOGUE

Peony POV

May mga bagay na minsan kailangan mong ilet go. Kailangan mong mamili para sa ikakabuti ng nakakarami. Our Love Story maybe typical to others pero para sa akin the decisions we made are the most unique things we did.

We loved each other pero hindi namin mapipigilan na may mga hadlang at challenges kaming makakaharap. We did not give up on our love but we choose to do the best things for us to grow.

We may have not a the best ending but we learned a lot of lessons through it. I learned to accept things that are not meant to be. That sometimes my happiness is the sadness of others.

I met him through a photo, And we parted with a photo.

Ngumiti nalang ako at inayos na ang mukha ko. May interview ako ngayon, dahil may bago akong movie entitled The Great Love.

"Thank you." Sabi ko sa hair stylist ko.

"Miss Peony, mag-iistart na daw po yung interview." Tumango naman ako at tumayo na.

You look good Peony Mendell.

Nag-lakad na ako with my best outfit, taas noo akong nag-lalakad papunta sa isang room kung saan ako iinterviewhin.

Nang makarating na ako ay umupo na agad ako. Nag-ayos na yung mag-iinterview sa akin at nginitian ko siya.

"Don't be nervous." Sabi ko.

"First time ko po to Ms. Peony." Sabi niya.

"Aww, I'm honored to be your first guest. Don't worry masasagot ko naman yung mga tanong mo. I won't get you in an awkward situation." Sabi ko.

Tumango naman siya at umupo na sa harap ko.

"Camera rolling in 3, 2, 1." Sabi ng director.

"So good morning everyone! We are here at the Ngiti Night. Today our guest is Ms. Peony Mendell." Sabi niya.

"Good Morning everyone, I'm Peony and I am here to answer some questions." Sabi ko at ngumiti.

"So, Ms. Peony how do you feel for your new movie?" Tanong niya sa akin.

"Uhm, I think it's a nice movie and I can feel something about it like it is special. We have not aired it yet but I think it's a good movie. The Great Love nga po pala, Watch it on cinema!" Sabi ko.

"Ms. Peony, how about your great love?" Tanong sa akin ng nag-iinterview.

"Hmm?" Sabi ko at napangiti.

"Anong klaseng tao ang great love mo?" Tanong niya.

"My great love? They said he is nice, gwapo, at selfless.." Sabi ko sa kaniya.

I am doing my exclusive interview for my new movie.

"So you're doing a movie called The Great Love. Ang tanong nakita mo na ba siya?" Intriga na tanong nila.

"I found him, but lost him too. I don't really remember but my heart still feel it." Sabi ko.

Parang naguluhan yung nag-iinterview sa akin.

"I heard magaling ka daw sa photography?"

Napatingin ako sa kanya at tumango. I really enjoy taking pictures. And I'm glad na ginagawa ko yun.

"Yes I am. A photography kasi is where you can remember all the things you did, All the fun or sadness man yan. Na kahit naalimutan mo na is mananatili pa din ito sa mga larawan na kinuha mo. Hindi mo man maalala pero may ebidensya na nangyari iyon." Sabi ko.

"Ohh that's why teens today are really fond of social media no? Para mapost nila and they have memories to treasure. Pero hindi ba pwedeng yung mga memories mo na yun? Ikeep mo nalang sa mind mo?" Tanong niya.

"What if the brain forgets? The memories will also fade. It may be in your heart pero hindi mo alam kung nangyari ba talaga yun." Sabi ko.

"Base on your answers, naranasan mo na ba yun?" Tanong niya.

I stopped and smile at her.

"I guess I did?" Sabi ko at tumawa ng onti.

"I met him. And because of my photography and his photo, I fell in love." I uttered.

"May we know who's that lucky guy?" Tanong niya.

"He is," I said and stopped.

"He is psycho." I smiled as I remember everything we did together. 

The memories we've shared and every moment I'm with him. 

 He is my lover and I am his photographer.

THE END
