Payb Takes Book 2 (COMPLETED)

Sick Day

January 12, 9pm, Marriot Grandballroom (backstage):

M: Love, are you okay? *touches R's forehead and neck* Mainit ka na naman.

R: *smiles slyly* You always think I'm hot, Love. *laughs, coughs*

M: *pinches his side slightly* Ayan. May sakit na nga kasi. Haharot ka pa. *giggles* Seriously, Love, I'm worried. Kaya mo ba? Mukha ka nang mahihimatay eh. Umuwi ka na kaya? Better yet go to a hospital. Kaya ko naman na to siguro and maiintindihan nila if you have to leave. You look terrible. *frowns*

R: I thought you said sa sobrang gwapo ko, it's impossible for me to look sick kani-kanina lang. *grins* Plus I can't leave you here looking this gorgeous when I know there are guys out there ready to try and whisk you away from my hands in two seconds. Oh, wag kang umiling diyan at tumawa, I see the way they look at you. *sniffs, coughs*

M: *grins* Fine. If you want to stay here with me then you can but I will keep an eye on you. Okay? You, Mister, are not allowed to leave my side. Understood? *hooks her hand around his arm, looks up at R*

R: Yes, Ms Maine. Stop worrying about me, Love. I'll be fine. Tsaka wala talaga kong nararamdamang sakit pag kasama kita. Ikaw lang naman ang kailangan ko para gumaling. *smiles*

M: Love, I'm your fiancee not your doctor. *grins, shakes her head*

R: But you're my angel. *smiles, stares at M dreamily*

M: Ang cheesy mo na, Love ha? Halika na nga. *giggles*

After Nestle event, Dressing Room:

R: *holds M's hand around his arm tight and closes his eyes, feeling suddenly woozy after taking pictures with fans and signing some autographs*

M: Love? *touches his cheek* My God! Ang taas ng lagnat mo. Namumutla ka na. Ma...

MT: *rushes to them* Hala ka, Tisoy! Sam dali. Baka himatayin to. Di namin kaya.

L: Dito. Iupo niyo dito. *talks to R&M's team also in the room* Wag na po natin i-crowd si Alden. Kami na muna po titingin okay?

R: Love, okay lang ako.

M: Anong okay? You need to go to the hospital now.

R: Tapos naman na yung event. Umuwi na lang tayo. Tulog lang to.

M: No. You're going to the hospital now.

L: *on the phone* Papunta na si Eric.

M: *nods her head* Thank you, Kuya.

R: I said okay lang ako, Love. Di na kailangan ng hospital. *coughs* Uwi na tayo. May taping pa tayo bukas. *holds M's hand*

M: Seriously, RJ? Nagkakaganyan ka na trabaho pa din iniisip mo? Pupunta ka ng hospital ngayon. Wait. Let's take your coat off and have you change into a comfortable shirt. *removes R's coat, loosens his tie and starts unbuttoning his shirt*

R: Gusto mo lang pala akong hubaran, sa bahay na lang natin to gawin. *makes a small grin in his attempt to stop M from worrying*

M: That's it! I'm done! *huffs and flails her hands up*

L: Ooookay... That's our cue. People, labas muna tayo. *sighs, starts gently shoving R&M's teams out the door*

R: Love? *grabs M's hand as she turns to leave the room, looks at her in shock*

M: *turns and looks at R with piercing eyes* Ayoko na. Tapusin na natin to. I'm breaking up with you.

R: What? Bakit? Love naman... Sandali lang naman...
