Holding a bottle of beer while watching the fire dancers perform.
Jamie strolling by the beach noticed him from the other side.
She went sneakily near him.
Hey. (He is hotter when he drinks)
Drink his beer.
Hi, Jamie. (heavens help me to resist her beauty tonight)
Awkward.
Um. You're alone and drinking. (His biceps, is charming me)
Yeah. You're alone too, and injured. (Her lips, is teasing me)
Confused.
Is there anything wrong? You're acting strange.
Acting numb.
Nothing. Is there anything I should be worrying about?
Looks at her fiercely.
Wala naman. Natanong lang medyo iba ihip ng hangin sayo eh.
Drink his beer.
Hindi ka nanaman ba kumain? Nag-iimagine ka nanaman ata ng kung ano-ano eh.
Slightly pissed.
I did eat, Adriane. Now I am going to let you alone kasihindiatamagandahanginbandarito.
Turned around and walked away from him.
What is wrong with him? Wait, is it possible that he already knew that Wena told me everything? This is becoming more awkward and confusing at the same time. Pero kailangan talaga niyang magsungit? Ugh! That guy!
While walking back to her room, Adriane runs after her.
Jamie! Jamie wait!
She turns around.
Eyes are full of questions. Eyebrow raising.
Trying to compose himself.
Look, I'm sorry for acting that way kanina. I'm just a messed right now.
Listening intently.
Doubts are all over your face.
Standing still.
Aren't you going to say something Jamie?
Refusing to speak. Arms crossed.
Okay, come with me.
Pulled her hands.
Wait, saan mo akodadalin?
Somewhere where we can be true to ourselves and honest to each other.
