INT. HOTEL ROOM – NIGHT
Elie's POV
ELIE sits at a desk in their hotel room, scrolling through her phone. The room is tidy, with a view of the cityscape of Singapore through the window.
ELIE (V.O.)
Haay, 3 days na lang at babalik na kami ng Pilipinas. Dapat sana bukas na kami uuwi, pero since malakas si Sir. Nathan sa boss naming si Sir Lamarck, pinayagan kaming mag-extend pa ng 2 days. Mula kasi nang dumating kami dito, hindi pa namin nalilibot ang Singapore. Ano kayang magandang bilhin na pasalubong? Bahala na si Batman bukas. Teka, makapag-FB nga muna. Ilang araw din akong busy, musta na kaya si James? Anong bago sa kanya ngayon?
ELIE opens her Facebook app and navigates to Jame's profile. Her eyes widen as she spots a new post.
ELIE (V.O.)
Ano ito? #JamesFliesToSingapore? Pupunta si James dito?
ELIE scrolls down to the comments on the post, her face a mix of excitement and concern.
ELIE (V.O.)
"Good luck sa flight mo today, James my love. Mwah—Hannah." Hannah? Sino ka? Please don't tell me may girlfriend ka na.
ELIE scrolls down to the comments and likes section but see no reply nor reaction from James.
ELIE taps her fingers on the desk, visibly frustrated.
ELIE (V.O.)
James my love? Ano ka niya, girlfriend? Ito namang si James, bakit wala siyang reaction? Sana nag-comment ka man lang na don't call me that, di ba? Mabo-brokenhearted na ba ako?
ELIE sighs deeply, staring at her phone screen as the city lights of Singapore twinkle in the background.
