[EXT/INT. ROOFTOP, TAN'S RESIDENCE — NIGHT, 9:09 PM]
Adrian props down on the bean bag and immediately opens the water bottle before handing it to Kira who tries to take a deep breath in between her sobs.
ADRIAN
Tangina talaga ng lalaking 'yon.
Oh, uminom ka muna.
ADRIAN
Babangasan ko pagmumukha ng lintik na 'yo—
KIRA
'W-Wag na . . .
KIRA (glares)
Hayaan mo s-siya.
ADRIAN
Tangina niya.
Bakit ka ba pumatol du'n?
ADRIAN
Ang pangit-pangit na nga, manloloko pa.
Tanginang 'yan.
ADRIAN
Ano ba kasing nangyare? Nakita mo sila saan?
KIRA
Sa Mall . . .
KIRA (sobs)
May kasama siyang girl.
KIRA
Magka-holding hands sila.
Tapos . . . ang sweet nila.
Promise, you'll feel na sila talaga.
KIRA
Adri . . .
Ang sakit.
ADRIAN
Putangina.
'Di 'yon makakalabas sa school ng buhay.
Ano ngang pangalan no'n?
KIRA
'Wag na.
'Wag mong aawayin.
It's bad.
Hayaan mo na siya.
ADRIAN
Anong hayaan?
Niloko ka hahayaan mo na lang?
Uupakan ko 'yon.
Tangina niya, gunggong siya.
Kira lets out a big sigh before reaching his arms.
KIRA
Not worth it, Adri.
I mean, yes, niloko niya 'ko but—
ADRIAN
'Di ako papaya—
KIRA
Adri naman e . . .
KIRA
I'm okay.
Mawawala rin 'tong pain, promise.
KIRA
I'm sorry . . .
I know may final exams pa tayo tomorrow, tapos pinapunta pa kita here.
Sorry.
Wala talaga akong matawagan na iba.
Ayaw ko rin namang mag-worry sina Ate Kels and Thea.
ADRIAN
'Wag mo na 'ko problemahin.
ADRIAN
Alalahanin mo sarili mo.
Tumingin ka sa salamin, kalat-kalat na make-up mo oh.
KIRA
Ha? Really?
KIRA
Okay lang.
Hindi mo naman ako ija-judge e.
ADRIAN
'Di ah. Ang dungis mo nga e.
ADRIAN
Yuck. Hahaha.
Kira immediately hits his arm. Adri chuckles.
Kira just glares at him before looking up at the sky.
KIRA
Adri.
ADRIAN
Hmm?
A loud silence creeps in. They close their eyes, feeling the wind against their skin.
KIRA
Ayaw ko na talaga mag-jowa.
Palagi na lang akong nasasaktan.
Ako lagi 'yong namomroblema.
KIRA
Parang gusto ko na lang maging
single forever.
ADRIAN
Baliw.
KIRA
Oo nga . . .
What if . . . pagtanda natin, hindi pa rin natin nahahanap si 'the one'?
Adrian smiles—his cat whiskers have been evident.
ADRIAN
Nandito naman ako, ah?
He laughs softly.
ADRIAN
E 'di tayo na lang.
