The Director

Take 15

It was like I was frozen when he said that. Feels like I have my eyes but I don't know what I'm seeing; I have my ears but looks like I don't know what I am hearing. Did he even say that or I was just dreaming; and when did I even dream about him?

"So... I said... Is that enough? "

"You are always arguing with her then you will tell her that you like her? "

That's Sam, I know. But I still don't know what to say. I remained standing there.

"Let's go."

He was grabbing my hands... Where are we going? Where will he take me? I was so shocked when he did that and everybody on the shooting is looking at me/us.

"Where are we going? Where are you going to take me?"

"Here..let's talk. You have so many questions right? You want answers right?"

"No. Just leave those questions unanswered."

"You need to know that I am always rude at you because I want to be near you. I always want to annoy you because I want you to pay your attention to me. I want you to hate me because I want to make you feel that I love you. You don't even see how I get jealous whenever you do those things to Sam. Yes Sarah, I am jealous at him! I don't want him for you. I want to be yours, I want you to be mine. Now, is there anything you want to say?"

This man. I can't believe he is talking in front of me like this. I never thought he would be as honest as this. What will I do now? How can I tell him that I am not yet ready for any relationship?

He is looking at me. Maybe he is waiting for me to say anything.

"Sorry but I have no plan yet of havung a serious relationship. And anyway, there are still a lot of girls there. I might not be the one for anyone else."

"But if Sam would be the one to confess his feelings for you I guess you are going to say yes immediately."

"Is that what you know about me? How dare you. You don't know me."

I am about to turn my back when he held my shoulder with his right. Gentle hand. I can feel the pressure.

"I'm sorry Sarah. I didn't mean to offend you even before. I just...again, I just want to express how I feel for you. Don't worry... After the movie shoot, I am not going to bother you again. Sorry."

"Huh? Ammm.."

I don't know what to feel when he said that.

"So you felt sad right? haha."

"What? Who told you? "

"Hahaha. You should have looked at yourself in the mirror when I said that. Hahaha. "

Am I too obvious? Or he's just playing tricks on me. I hate to say it but he's so cute when he is doing that. Especially when his eyebrows are moving. I find it sexy.

"You're so.."

"What?"

"Nothing. Let's go back. We have to finish the shooting."

"You just miss Sam, don't you?"

"And why is he part of the topic now?"

"So you just want the two of us? Right, Sarah"

The nerve of this man! Nah! But he's really handsome when he's talking, ah control Sarah. He's just teasing you.

"What if I say yes?"

"Yes? You mean... we.."

"Yes."

"What?"

"Hahaha. You're blushing Bamboo. I'm just joking."

"Okay I guess you're not going to take it seriously. Let's go back."

I can see the pain in his eyes. Luh, what did I do? Well, he was the one who started it anyway.

"So what's up? Is everything clear Bambs? Sarah? "

I think both of us were just silent when we returned. So Kuya Pancho is starting to wonder. And ofcourse they will really wonder because of what happened a while ago.. Plus when he took me away from them.

"What's with the awkward silence? How was the runaway bride and groom? Haha. "

That's why Sir Chiko adds more flavor do the teasing. I can see Sam full of wonder as well.

"Sarah are you okay? What did this man do to you? Hah? "

Sam asked. I wanted to control myself from laughing out loud remembering Bamboo's reaction when I told him that I am just joking at him.

"Let's continue the shooting. We have to be serious now. Here. "

Is it my fault for making him moody again? Sorry.

"Bamboo... I'm sorry for offending you. I just can;t understand things the way they are coming."

I said to him after the shoot. During the shooting he is so professional, unlike before when he is so rude.

"It's okay. And I am declaring this day as the start of the day that I am going to show my love to you."

"Ha? What? Wait? What do you mean?"

"Here.... Here's a flower, here's a chocolate for you. If those we're not yet enough then

tell me. Oh and by the way there's a letter there inside the bouquet."

"What are these for???"

"What? You are not getting the point Sarah?"

"What if I don't?"

"Then I will make you understand..."

It was too late when I realized that he is about to kiss me. His lips are so soft. Softer than Sam's. Wait where did I get that idea? Wait, his simple kiss makes my heart melt. Why? I said I am not yet ready for love but here I am feeling the love.

"I think we don't need script for this right?"

He said smiling at me after the kiss. Then he kissed me again.

Please have mercy. Don't make me feel like it's the end of my life.

"Cut!"

Sir Pancho shouted. He was laughing at us.
