After the "CUT!"

Consequential Gaming

"I'm bored! Let's play a game!" - M
"Sure! What game?" - R
"Alam mo yung Hunger Games?" - M
"Hunger Games?! Meng, ano ito?!" - R
"Ay grabe siya! Eh kung pinapatapos mo muna kaya ako. Doon sa last book, yung Mockingjay, Peeta and Katniss played this game called Real or Not real. It's pretty simple actually..." - M
"Go ahead." -R
"We'll each state a fact, fiction, rumour, whatever... Then the other will confirm whether the statement is real or not real. It's like 20 questions but the answer is just simply real or not real. No need to elaborate." - M
"What if I don't want to answer?" - R
"Well this is a honesty game. So you'll have to be really honest. But if the statement makes you uncomfortable, or course there will be consequences." - M
"What consequences?" - R
"We'll cross the bridge when we get there Richard. Ano? Game ka?" - M
"Go fire!" - R
"OK! I'll go first. Dota boy ka ba talaga dati?" - M
"Not real. Ok, I think I'll like this game. Since galing ka sa all girls school, may instance ba na nagkacrush ka sa kapwa mong girl" - R
"Grabe siya talaga! You're such a boy Richard!! But to answer that, and to satisfy your boy fantasies. Real" - M
"Oh shit! Talaga? Woohoo. So maganda ba siya? Parang ikaw?" - R
"Ewan ko sayo Richard. Oh ako naman, lagi mo bang binubully si Rizza?" - M
"Nagsumbong siya sayo no? Ok fine. Real! Hindi mo talaga ako kilala 5yrs ago sa Candy Fair?" - R
"Real. Sabi sayo, si DJ ang pinunta ko dun" - M
"Ouch!"  - R
"Huwag kang maarte, ako nga hindi mo matandaan eh. At least natatandaan pa kita after ko magpapicture. Ako na! Buntis ba talaga si Hannah?" - M
"Maine!!! Not real! Wala nga akong kilalang Hannah eh." - R
"Eto naman pikon agad. Joke lang." - M
"Ang kulit mo. Oh eto, crush mo na ba ako nun una tayong nagkita sa split screen?" - R
"Para-paraan ka ah. Real! Gusto mo yan eh." - M
"Nagtatanong lang. Ok ikaw na" - R
"Crush mo na din ba ako dati" - M
"Grabe, eh kakakita lang sayo nun. Pero real. Kase nakikita ko na mga dubsmash mo nun. Sobrang humanga ako sayo." - R
"Totoo ba? Eh ngayon?" - M
"Real!!! Patay na patay pa nga eh. Ou teka, ako na dapat ah" - R
"Eh may pag-asa bang ma-in love ka sakin?" - M
"..." - R
"Ngayong kilala mo na ako?" - M
"Meng, diba dapat ako na..." - R
"Totohanan na ba tayo?" - M
"..." - R
"OK. I'm done playing. Tawag na tayo sa labas." - M
"Maine, wait! Ano kase..." - R
"OK na Alden. We're done playing. I got all the answers I need. Gusto ko lang naman talaga malaman if dota boy ka talaga" - M
"Maine naman" - R
"Tawag na tayo sa labas. See you sa split screen. Aantayin ka ni Divina" - M
"..."  - R
When she closed the door, he cannot help but whisper "ito na ba yun consequence for not answering?"

A/N: this is my first time writing a purely convo fanfic. Ang hirap!!! Anyway, disclaimer - this is just a fanfic. Actually it's more based on my personal life than theirs. Because I don't really know what's happening behind the cameras. Hope you enjoyed reading it.
