The Tweet Exchange Part 2

New notification received from AldenRichards02

Her phone buzzed with the new notification. She was afraid to open her twitter and see what he would say. Her phone buzzed a second, then a third, then a fourth time sending her three more notifications from Alden. Baka nga may tweet lang, she thought, since from the beginning her phone would notify her every time Alden would post something on twitter.

@aldenrichards02 Bakit wala ka? Nag-hintay ako...

The first DM sent her heart racing, after all she did blow off the Pambansang Bae after he asked her to go to Eat Bulaga on a Thursday. After which, he promised that they would have conversations over coffee.

@aldenrichards02 Maine, di ka pa rin ba naniniwala?

@aldenrichards02 Pinahanap kita kay Mama Ten at sa mga floor directors pero wala naman daw Maine Mendoza na nagpunta.

@aldenrichards02 Maine...

Her heart ached because she didn't expect him to even care whether she made it or not. Sino ba naman ako? I'm just a fan. Malay ba natin kung friendly lang talaga siya sa mga fans niya, she thought to herself. Maine never expected that she actually existed in the Pambansang Bae's eyes. She replied...

@maine03 Sorry, hinahanap mo talaga ako? I didn't know naman kasi how to reach you. I had to do errands bigla. Didn't know naman if you checked your twitter religiously.

Her errand-line was obviously a lie trying to get out of this situation, then her phone buzzed again,

@aldenrichards02 Maine, ang tagal ko nag-antay. Hanggang matapos yung show nag-hope pa din ako na dadating ka.

@maine03 Shocks, na hopia ka seryoso?

@aldenrichards02 hopia?

@maine03 Ay, wala wala. Sorry talaga, Alden.

@aldenrichards02 Okay, sana maka-punta ka ng Dona Maria event, we can have coffee somewhere after?

@maine03 I will try talaga. I'll let you know pag sure ako.

@aldenrichards02 I hope it's not too much to ask, may I get your number? Ayoko na kumain ng hopia.

@maine03 hala siya, alam mo na yung hopia?

@aldenrichards02 Ayoko na mahopia sa'yo. Haha tama ba yun?

@maine03 It's 09173829390.

@aldenrichards02 Thank you!! Basta Saturday, okay? Papahanap kita kay Mama Ten kung pupunta ka talaga.

Maine stopped replying to his DMs and she just carried on working on her new edit for Alden. After all, her fan site was known for great video and photo edits. Her phone rang with an unfamiliar number flashing on her screen. She let it ring a couple more times until it became a miscall. She thought that for sure if it were someone important, he or she would call again. The number called again, when she finally answerd...

"Hello?" She spoke.

"Hi, Maine. Akala ko hopia nanaman ako eh," the familiar sound of someone she knows so well was on the other end of the line.

"Ah, eh, Alden?" was all she could say. She had to conceal her voice because all she could think about during that time was sana kunin na ako ng liwanag, sasabog na ovaries ko!!!

"Ano di ka pa rin naniniwala? Sabi ko sa'yo eh."
