Nasasanay na ako sa set-up namin ngayon ni Allain. Although we don't go public that much he will always have his ways to make one day so special.

"When's the 2nd anniversary concert?" Tanong niya habang pinagmamaneho ako patungo sa last taping day ng teleserye namin ni Ivan. After that I'm thinking if I'll be accepting another movie offer.

"On my birthday." I'll be turning 20 soon, time flies so fast. We're almost 2 years na palang magka love team ni Ivan.

We made six movies and two teleseryes, would it be fair if I leave showbiz same day of our second anniversary? I think I haven't been selfish kasi napagbigyan ko na naman siya sa gusto niya.

It's already December and I've already been receiving gifts since Ber Months started. The good thing about me right now is that I have no problems with my bashers anymore. I got my bashers the moment about me and Allain came into public back then, but Allain already fixed it.

The ending was supposed to be sad, that was in the script during our first script reading but it turned out due to the demand of fans, the scriptwriter changed it. But I like the first ending though. The female lead died in the arms of the male lead. I'm not a fan of tragic stories but it makes sense in this teleserye.

"Cline, Ivan... We'll stick with the first ending. But we'll leave a question to the viewers." Paliwanag ni Direk. Samantalang ako ay bahagyang nilalamig na rin, iba talaga ang simoy ng hangin tuwing nalalapit na ang pasko. "Cline suggested it would be realistic if yung first ending ang susundin." Tumango at ngumiti naman ako kay direk.

Good thing they hear me out.

Pumasok ako sa tent ko at sinimulan na akong ayusan ng make-up artist. May sakit na ako sa ending kaya maputla lang ang make up ko, as in sobrang light lang, I'm also practicing may facial expression.

Hinihintay namin ang paglubog ng araw kaya naka- standby lang muna kami habang nakaupo sa bench. "Kaye paabot naman yung salamin." Tiningnan ko ang sarili ko sa personal mirror ko, I'm still good so no need for retouch. "Thanks Kaye."

"Practice tayo..." Tumango ako, eksakto namang dumating si direk.

"Okay both of you listen. Cline...sasandal ka sa balikat ni Ivan, while saying the last line. Habang pinipikit mo yung mga mata mo, kasabay noon ang pagngiti mo, a tear must escape from your eyes." Direk made a demonstration for us. "Gets?" Tumango ako kay direk.

"Ikaw naman Ivan, pagkasandal niya payakap naman yung left arm mo sa kanya. You will say your last line. A tear will escape from your eyes also pero papalisin mo rin agad. After that you'll kiss the top of her head." Pareho kaming tumango sa mga sinabi ni Direk. Nagdemo pa siya ulit para mas maintindihan naming dalawa yung kinakailan sa last scene.

I focused myself first habang nalalapit na ang paglubog ng araw.

Ilang minuto bago lumubog ang araw ay nagsimula na rin kami.

"Action!"

"The moment I stared at you, I know it will always be you." Sumandal ako sa balikat ni Ivan... "You may not be the first person I have loved...but you will always be my last one true love." Bahagya akong napahawak sa dibdib ko na tila kinakapos ng hininga. "Mahal na mahal kita Joseph, in my second life, I'll make sure you'll be my first and last." Dahan-dahan kong ipinikit ang mga mata ko. I smiled as a tear escaped from my eyes.

"I will follow you. I love you Isabelle. In our second life...I'll make sure, I'll be the first and the last man you'll love." Ramdam ko ang sakit na nararamdaman ng character ni Ivan. "You're the first girl I have loved this way, and the last girl I'll love for the rest of my life. Ikaw na Isabelle ko." He hugged me tighter and kissed the top of my head. "Sleep well my Isabelle, I love you forever and always."

We waited for the director's cut.

"And....cut!" Finally! There was a round of applause for us. "Congratulations! You both did a great job!" Madrama kaming niyakap ni Direk. Paulit-ulit kaming nagpasalamat sa lahat ng staff.

Pagkatapos nito ay magkakaroon kami ng wrap up party. Nauna na ang ibang cast and crew para sa wrap up party.

Hinintay ko lang si Allain dahil siya ang maghahatid sa akin doon. Also he sponsored the whole party, na pinagtalunan pa namin noong isang gabi.

"Mauna na kayo Kaye." Ngumiti ako kay Kaye at tsaka ko chineck ang phone ko.

Lumabas ako ng tent upang tingnan kung dumating na ba Si Allain. Still on his suit, he was sitting like a model of a famous clothing line. Pwede nga rin siyang maging artista.

Tumakbo ako palapit sa kanya at agad din siyang tumayo nang makitang papalapit na ako sa kanya. "Congratulations love..." Niyakap niya ako nang mahigpit.  Nagulat pa ako dahil baka may makakita sa amin. "I'll take care of it, don't worry."

Napangiti ako. I love the smell of his scent. "I missed you." Aniya na mas lalong nakapagpangiti sa akin.

Ngumuso ako. "We live together." I stated, wondering why he'd miss me.

"I know...it's just that..." Humiwalay siya sa akin at tsaka hinanap ang mga mata ko. I can stare at him all night. "I wanted to be with you for the whole day." Nag-iwas siya ng tingin tsaka bahagyang ginulo ang buhok niya.

Binalik niya ulit ang tingin niya sa akin nang mapansin niyang hindi ako nagsalita. "Nothing...I'm really fine with this." Nakaramdam ako ng lungkot. I know he's just trying to understand our situation right now. 

"I love you." I tiptoed and kissed his cheeks. "Let's go?" Wala sa sariling tumango siya sa akin. Ngumisi na lamang ako.

Nagpaunlak kami ni Ivan para sa isang interview bago kami tuluyang makisali sa wrap up party.

"How true that you two are officially together?" Ikatlong tanong na hindi ko inasahan. This is a live broadcast!

"Uh...Ivan and I are good friends, everyone knows that so---"

Hindi ako pintapos magsalita ni Ivan. "We decided to take it to the next level. And yes...we're officially a couple." Literal na nalaglag ang panga ko, hindi ito nakita sa camera dahil naka-focus na lamang ito kay Ivan. Hinihintay ang susunod niyang sasabihin. Habang ako na gusto siyang pigilan ay walang lumalabas sa bibig ko na ano mang salita. Tila may bumara rito.

"It's so hard for us to keep it as a secret anymore. Alam naman kasi nang lahat kung gaano kami ka-close ni Cline, off and on cam. Hindi na nakakapagtaka lalo pa't I already liked her since we were in the same school before." Shit! Shit! Hindi ako makapag-isip. Si Allain?!

"Right Cline?" Umakbay sa akin si Ivan. Pilit akong napangiti. Tinitimbang niya ang magiging sagot ko. If I said no, magmumukhang sinungalin si Ivan...and me as his friend wouldn't want that to happen. If I said yes, I know Allain would get hurt.

"It's okay...she's probably shy. After all we still need privacy." At sa hindi malamang dahilan ay dahan-dahan akong tumango at tsaka pilit na ngumiti sa kanya.

Allain will understand.

It was trending worldwide on twitter. Hindi ako makapaniwala sa bilis ng pangyayari. Kung hindi lang sana iyon live broadcast. But did I make the right decision?

"Allain..." Tinalikuran niya ako nang papalapit na ako sa kanya. Please don't turn your back away from me. Mali ba yung desisyon ko? I have always been unfair to Ivan, ito na lang siguro yung huli kong magagawa para sa kanya.

I can release a statement saying we broke up because it didn't work out and we decided to remain as good friends.

Tumakbo ako papalapit sa kanya. Buong byahe ay hindi niya ako kinausap o kahit ang tapunan man lang ng tingin ay hindi niya ginawa.

"Sorry na..." Naiiyak kong sabi habang yumayakap sa likuran niya. "Hindi ko kasi alam ang gagawin ko..."

"You chose him over me. I shouldn't have been that confident that you will always choose me all the time." Humarap siya sa akin kasabay nito ang pagbagsak ng luha niya. "Did I really make you change that much? Am I too heartless for you to change that way? For your feelings to change?"

"No..." Halos hindi lumabas ang salitang ito sa bibig ko.

"Then fucking why?! Nalilito ka na ba? Sabihin mo lang kung dapat na ba akong tumigil. I know kulang pa yung ilang buwan na pagtitiis ko, kumpara sa ilang taong pag-iyak mo dahil sa akin." Umigting ang kanyang panga tsaka umiwas ng tingin sa akin. Ginulo niya rin ang buhok niya. "I can't stay forever heartless Cline...I still have my heart. But you fucking stole it. So tell me? Are you giving my heart back?" Sinubukan kong lumapit sa akanya pero umatras lamang siya.

And it makes my heart aches.

"I'm really sorry... I just can't leave Ivan like that. We're friends." Tumungo ako habang pinapalis ang mga luha ko.

"Fuck. Please stop crying..." Lumapit siya sa akin. "I'm sorry...look, I didn't mean to shout at you...it's just that...baby, I'm really sorry." Mas lalo lamang akong napahagulhol habang niyayakap niya ako, hindi dahil galit ako sa kanya kundi dahil na-realize ko na mali ang desisyon ko.

I chose Ivan over him. I chose Ivan because I know Allain will understand. He always understands that I forgot that he also has a heart and he's hurting. Because no matter how could he be heartless before he's still the same Allain I fell in love with.

"I'm sorry..." Ani ko. "I'm sorry for not thinking about your feelings. Sorry kung kailangan mo na lang akong intindihin lagi...Pagod ka na ba?" Please say no... Tila pagod siyang tumingin sa akin.

"Hindi pa." Tila nabuhayan ako ng loob sa naging sagot niya. "Who am I to demand? I caused you a lot of tears and pain... Hihintayin mo pa ba akong mapagod?" Umiling-iling ako.

"I'm sorry. I really love you. I'm gonna marry you." Natigilan siya sa sinabi ko. Ngayon ay buong-buo na ang desisyon ko. I'm going to marry him. I'm going to marry him simply because I love him. I'm still in love with him.  I have always loved him.

"Tell me I'm not fucking dreaming..." Pinalis ko ang luha sa pisngi niya. I traced every part of his face.

"I'm gonna marry you." Tsaka ako ngumiti sa kanya. Ang kanina'y malungkot niyang mukha ay napalitan ng sigla.

"Mahal na mahal kita Cline. I love you more than what I am capable of. I can just stay with you and love your forever." Tumango ako kasabay nito ang pagyakap niya sa akin.

Sabay kaming nagtungo ni Allain sa bahay nila mommy nang tumawag sa akin si mommy kaninang umaga. Dapat ay sa pasko pa ako uuwi sa amin pero mukhang may mahalagang sasabihin si mommy.

I think it's about our marriage.

Pinagbuksan ako ng pinto ng kotse ni Allain. "Thank you." Ngumiti ako sa kanya. He extended his hand for me. I held his hand and we walked towards the mansion.

"Mom! Dad!" Magiliw akong tumakbo kina mommy and daddy para mayakap sila. Abot langit ang ngiti ko dahil sa na-miss ko sila ng sobra.

Nawala ang ngiti ko nang magtama ang mga mata namin ng isang babaeng ngayon ko lang nakita. She's not familiar but I manage to smile again at her.

"Mom?" Lumingon ako kay mommy at sa babaeng nakaupo sa sofa namin. Lumapit sa gilid ko si Allain, nag-angat ng tingin ang babae sa kanya.

"Cline sweetheart..." My mom broke into tears. Tila nalaglag ang puso ko. Wala akong idea sa kung ano mang nangyayari ngayon pero tila nasasaktan na agad ako. "I'm sorry.." My mom who's still crying hugged me tight. Si daddy naman ay hindi makatingin sa akin ng diretso.

Naglakad papalapit si daddy sa babaeng nakaupo sa sofa. Ngayon ko lang napansin na mukhang magka-edad lang kami. Pero naguguluhan pa rin ako sa nangyayari.

"Cline sweetie..." Bahagyang tumigil sa pag-iyak si mommy at kumawala sa yakap niya sa akin. "This is..." Tila nahihirapan magsalita si daddy.

"Dad..." Nanggigilid na ang mga luha ko. "Who is she?" Pabigat na nang pabigat ang nararamdaman ko.

"She's ..." May luhang kumawala sa mga mata ni daddy. Why dad? "She's Annika..." Hindi pa rin matapos ni daddy ang kanyang sasabihin. Muling naiyak si mommy sa gilid ko. "...our real daughter."

Tila nabingi ako. Muntik na rin akong mawalan ng balanse...mabuti na lang at naalalayan agad ako ni Allain. "Dad...s-she.." Hindi ako makapagsalita at tuluyan na ngang kumawala ang mga luha ko na kanina pa nagbabadya.

"She's our real daughter..." Nag-angat ako nang tingin kay Annika. She just looked at me without a hint of joy.  Habang ako ay tila dahan-dahang dinudurog ang puso.

Real daughter...they meant I'm not theirs. I'm not their real daughter. Tila may bumara sa dibdib ko. This hurts more than anything else.

I'm not their real daughter. Nanghihina ako napasalampak sa sahig. Then who am I? Napahagulhol ako sa sobrang sakit. Please ... If this is just a dream can someone wake me up? I'm hurting again...so bad.
