The scene has been changed so as the characters but the words belong to someone who had played a great role in my life.

HE ASKED FOR MY PICTURES

“Pimples." I cried in front of the mirror dramatically, “I HAVE PIMPLES!"

Bakit?

Why?

I did everything to get rid of those stupid little red spots but here they are, appearing on my nose. On top of my nose again!

Mga walang hiyang pimples! Buwisit!

Hindi ko na lang ito pinansin at akmang lalabas sa kwarto nang biglang magring ang phone ko. Ang aga-aga tapos may tumatawag. Can't they get a life?

Agad ko naman itong sinagot when I found out that it was from my boyfriend, Chris.

“Hello." nakasimangot kong sagot sa kaniyang tawag.

“Hey, baby!" his jolly voice was making my morning calm.

Umupo ako sa dulo ng kama, “What do you want, Chris?"

"Hmm." biglang naging malambing ang kaniyang boses, “Kamustang umaga ng baby ko? Hmm?"

“Hindi maganda ang umaga ko."

“Mine too." He chuckled.

Napakunot ang noo ko, “Is something's wrong?"

“No..." he sighed, “Nabasa mo ba chat ko sayo? I thought you were still sleeping kaya tumawag na lang ako para magising ka."

Buti nga di siya tumawag noong natutulog ako. I'm pretty sure di ko siya masasagot and also, magtatampo na naman ko. Thank God.

"Hindi pa. Let me check."

I turned the data on and went to messenger para mabasa kung ano ang chat niya sa kin. This guy is so demanding. Ano na naman kaya message niya sa kin?

—Send pics. I miss you.—

Napaawang ang aking labi sa nabasa. He's asking for my pictures?

I groaned, “No."

“Eh, why?" his voice ay mas lalong lumambing.

I hate that tone. He sounds so childish and its...its sending butterflies to my hungry stomach. Di pa pala ako nakakain ng almusal. How pabaya of me.

“I miss you." he was like a child begging for affection.

I cringed, “Why are you acting like that?"

“Acting like what?" even more childish than before.

Gosh.

Ano na namang trip niya?

“Stop that. Nakakarindi yang malandi mong boses." giit ko.

“No, its not." He chuckled, “Baby, send me your pictures. I wanna see you badly." he was begging and it sounds like it. 

“Gusto mo ng nudes ko?" natatawang tanong ko sa kaniya.

“Never akong hihingi ng nudes sa yo."

If nagkaharap kami ngayon, I'm pretty sure na inirapan na niya ako.

“Its disrespectful." he scoffed, “Ambastos mo, Ann. I'm not like that. Tsss."

Hindi ko mapigilang matawa, “I know. I was just annoying you."

Agad kong sinend sa kaniya yung pictures ko from snapchat, snow, instagram. Grabe, ang ganda ko lang kasi sa mga filters nila. I have clear and silky-smooth skin, spider lashes kuno, and that kissable lips. Wala lang. Nakakasana ol lang.

I can hear the vibration of his phone from the other line after I sent the pictures to him.

“What are these?!"

Nagulat ako dahil sa sinabi niya kaya agad akong bumaling sa phone at tiningnan ito, “What?"

“These pictures are filtered." he stated.

“So?"

Ano na naman problema niya kung may filter yung pictures ko? This is the first time na humingi siya ng pictures sa kin. And its...wow. Ano problema niya don?

“Pasensiya na." I laughed, “Di ako photogenic kahit may filters."

“No, no." aniya, “I want your pictures but with no filters." He emphasized, ”NO FILTERS."

Napanganga ako, “Wait, Chris. What I sent you just now are my pictures too. Mga pictures ko din yon. Don't you know how hard it takes to take a perfect shot?"

"I don't care." His voice was more serious, “Just send me your pictures with no filters."

“P*t*ng*n* naman oh. Nasend ko na yung mga pictures." reklamo ko pa.

“Calm down, baby." I heard him chuckle, “You're beautiful, way beautiful."

"Oh, tapos?"

“I just want you to send the unfiltered pictures dahil I want to see your natural face." He added, “Sure. Maganda ka naman tingnan sa mga filter. But it looks nothing like you. You don't have chinky eyes, you have almonds. You don't have white, koreana type ng balat. You have kayumanggi at yun ang gusto ko sayo."

I don't know what to say. Did he just insulted or complimented me?

“You're beautiful with or without filters, baby." I can hear his calming voice boosting my self- esteem. “I know na you have insecurities. Everyone does. But with me, I want you to love your insecurities that way I do. Tanggap kita no matter how flawed and imperfect you think you are."

"Awe." tanging sambit ko.

“Now send me your pictures. I just miss you so much." akala ko papatayin na niy ang tawag but he added, “But remember this, NO FILTERS."

Everyone had insecurities to what they look like, how wrinkled they think they are and the flaws.

But you know, you will always be beautiful to the person who loves you.

With or without filters.

You are beautiful!🧡

You are beautiful!🧡
