sa pananaw ng binata

ito na siguro ang pagkakataon. kahit masakit ang unang bitaw ng kanyang mga salita. kung ito ang paraan para makilala ko sya ng lubusan, kakayanin ko ang sakit. bakit nga ba parang ang sakit malaman na naging pag-aari sya ng iba. na mayroong nagmay-ari ng puso nya. isa lang. pwede bang humiling. na sana nakaraan na. na tapos na. na ang lahat ay nakalipas na. na ang lahat ay nasa kahapon na.

so he loves to eat then?

not exactly.

what's his favorite?

dry pasta. yata?

why are you not sure?

what makes a food your favorite?

ako?

ay hindi, ako... syempre ikaw. pano mo ba nasasabi kung favorite mo yung food?

when i'm fond of eating it of course. yung kahit maraming choices alam ko na yun at yun ang pipiliin kong kainin....

ok.... makes me think then

think what?

the answer to your question....

napabuntong-hininga sya. nagpatuloy sa pagluluto. hindi pa siguro panahon para magpatuloy ako sa pagtatanong. hindi sa panahong hindi pa sya kumportableng magkwento. unti-unti. dahan-dahan. kung ano lang ang kaya nyang ibigay.

breakfast is ready.

ang bango naman. lalo tuloy akong ginutom.

french toast with cinnamon shavings, stuffed with hazelnut creme. please enjoy.

sure ka ba na hindi ka chef by profession?

hay naku tikman mo po muna bago ka mag-compliment. malay mo dinaan lang kita sa food description

amoy pa lang masarap na. yung dish name added wow factor. i'll try it na

hope you'll like it

best french toast i've ever tasted

bolero! wag ka nga!

tikman mo kasi. here try it para masabi mong di ako nambobola.

sige na i have mine. enjoy your food

by the way, what did you put in my coffee?

you.... hindi mo nagustuhan?

it's the contrary. may iba akong nalalasahan na gusto ko. and i know my coffee maker

i added honey and vanilla syrup. feeling ko kasi you have a sweet tooth. experimenting lang.

well, you got me figured out. coffee, desserts and sweets are the kinds of temptation i cannot resist. can you show me later how you did my coffee?

sure. i noticed you like arabica blend. i'll let you try my brew next time. i switched to lavazza brand

game ako dyan. so mahilig ka rin sa kape?

triplets yata ang salitang manuscript, proofreading at coffee. so kahit siguro hindi ko hilig nadala na lang ng pangangailangan

hmmm... at least other than fishballs and mcdo takeaways, meron pa tayong pwedeng i-enjoy

good catch. ahm, richard

yes?

huy ano ba punasan mo nga yang pisngi mo

bakit?

kalat-kalat kaya yung hazelnut sauce sa pisngi mo. grabe ang dungiiiissss!!!!

goes to show how much im enjoying my food

oo na sige na mr. bolero. punasan mo na nga yang pisngi mo. parang bata

bakit? bata pa naman ako ah

yah right! a 5 year old kid trapped inside a 26 year old businessman's body

huy! grabe ka sa kin. ang sarap kasi talaga. o sige na ano yung tanong mo? don't mind my messy face nag-eenjoy ako kumain

wala naman. hindi naman talaga tanong... more of ... uhhmm... uncertainty

oohhhhkaaayyy! you got my attention on that uncertainty. go on

teka lang. hihinga muna ako ng malalim. hhhmmmmhhhh....

grabe naman yung buntong-hininga

hindi kasi talaga ako sanay sa ganito. yung sinasabi ko kung ano yung nasa isip ko.

masanay ka na. when you're with me make it a habit to tell me what you think. i need to know not for the sake of me knowing but because i care about your opinion.

sige. i'll try. dahan-dahan?

i can take that. dahan-dahan

dalawang hinliliit ang nagkapit. isang pangako ang kaakibat. isa pang hakbang. kahit na maliliit, ang mahalaga umuusad.

bakit ka pumayag?

sa?

sa plano ni alex

to be honest hindi ko alam ang plano nya. she did not inform me not until you arrived yesterday night.

so kung ala—

had i known sana pinag-usapan natin. i would've told you. asked for your opinion. but then again, if you said otherwise, i would've used my persuading skills as a businessman to make sure you go with her plan

so in short. papayag ka pa rin

that's a yes

why?

why not?

i mean bakit ka papayag sa set-up na to? knowing that it's all a lie. knowing it might compromise your chances with pursuing the girl that you really like

it will all do us good. alex is of the hook from her contract clause of not being involved with any guy that may result to a lawsuit, me being out of the issue and will be able to go back to my normal life and not being part of any showbiz news, which i find so irritating, and then there's you...

there's me who can get what?

you who can get a chance to have another great friend

and that would be?

none other than me

wow! kumpiyansa ha

oo naman! that's something i can offer you genuinely.

salamat

saan?

sa genuine friendship.

you're welcome. always

nuggets

french fries?

isang tanong.

what?

ask me a question.

sandaling pagkalito. sinusukat ang tanong kung ano. anong tanong ang dapat ibato.

who do you think has the greatest love story and why?

wow! talagang ginawa mong isang sentence lang ha

baka kasi hindi ka na tumanggap ng follow-up.

the love story of the sun and the moon....

i'm listening

think of their cycle, it's so great and selfless, kasi sa mahabang panahon kailangan nilang hindi magtagpo para bigyang daan na mabuhay ng matiwasay ang ibang nilalang. it's so great kasi sa kabila ng walang kasiguraduhan kung kelan sila ulit magkakasama na minsan nga mas matagal pa ang isang buntong-hininga, hindi sila nawawalan ng pag-asa.

parang ang lungkot ng analogy mo sa love story ng araw at buwan.

hindi naman. ewan ko ba pero sobrang fascinated ako sa kanilang dalawa. kasi di ba, parang.... ahm pano ba? para kasing the other one has to die to make the other live. how great is that di ba?

ang lalim. teka medyo nalunod ako.... pero ang lungkot pa rin ng analogy...

pero di ba it's just so great it will live thru the years. no ending. infinite. paulit-ulit na cycle. pero walang naggi-give up. walang nagsasawa. walang bumibitiw.

who do you think loved more?

yung araw.

kasi?

kasi mananatili siyang mag-isa. kahit kelan hindi sya magkakaroon ng kasama. walang kahati ang buwan. pero ang buwan minsan may kasamang bituin minsan nga mga bituin pa.

so the moon is a cheater then?

hindi naman. maaaring binibigyan sya ng pagkakataon na magmahal ng iba o baka naman sa ilang pagkakataon gusto nyang makalimutan ang lungkot, but he's still looking forward on their chance meeting. their eclipse

that one moment that will always take his breath away.

at sa bawat pagkikita nila, anumang panahon hindi ba't ilang milyong tao ang patuloy pa ding nasasabik na abangan at hintayin ang natatanging oras na yon. how great could it be?

grabe mahirap pala makipag-usap sa mga writers. ang lalim ng logic. ang tindi ng analyzation.

huy hindi naman. sorry nabo-bore na siguro kita.

quite the contrary. i'm getting more and more fascinated, to be honest.

change topic na nga tayo.

wag muna. dito muna tayo sa love story ng araw at buwan.

wag na. nalulungkot ka eh.

hindi naman. but it made me think of something.

and that would be?

their story. pag ni-relate mo sa reality yun ang nakakalungkot

how so?

sa point of view ng buwan, i'll take it that they are the men. kahit anong gawin nya, sa malayo lang nya kayang mahalin ang araw. ang sakit di ba? and the sun, which are women, the thought that she would always be alone kahit alam nya na may nakamasid sa kanya sa kabilang dako na handa syang mahalin but then again, all she could do is wait for that chance meeting. and worst part, she can't do anything about it. pareho kasi silang may mundo at mga planetang kailangang buhayin. they have to sacrifice what they have to make others live better. nakakalungkot.

true. but isn't that the reason that makes it great?

definitely, but it does not change the fact that its heart-breaking. nakakapanikip ng dibdib.

but come to think of it, theirs would be endless. a never-ending cycle of falling inlove.

haaayyy sabi ko na nga ba ikaw ang tatalo sa kin sa negosyo. ibang klase yung convincing powers mo.

hahaha grabe ka sa kin. i just want you to look at it differently para hindi ka masyadong masaktan. it's better to have that memory of them falling inlove over and over again with no timeframe than thinking they will never have one complete day to love each other. di ba mas masarap isipin na araw-araw nagmamahal ka kesa bigyan ka lang ng isang araw tapos wala na?

siguro.

bakit naman siguro?

i can't forget that line of nicholas cage. city of angels

which one

when he was asked, had he known meg ryan's character would die, would he still gave up his immortality, then he answered, quote, i'd rather have one kiss of her lips and one touch of her hand... than eternity without it...

so, in your case, which one would you choose?

wala

huh?

i won't choose one from the other. they have their own story... both love stories are great in their own perspective

but....????

but i'd like to think that i could make my own....

mas malalim ka pala mag-isip eh. best luck on your story then

ikaw?

what about me?

don't you want to write your own?

hindi na....

bakit naman?

i'll trust my moon

your moon?

i'll trust my moon how he wants it to be told...

i'm praying my sun would have the same thought...

your sun?

that my sun would also give that same trust on how i'm going to write our story...

i'm sure she will

i really hope so...
