Project Z

Epilogue

During Jill’s wedding reception…

Video playing on a huge screen…

Voice on the video’s background…

(bumubulong)

“Bro ayusin mo yung videocam, tabingi.”

“Teka nga, wag mo ko inaatat, pasmado lang talaga ko.”

“Tsk! Akina nga! Ako na!”

“Bro, ano? Ready ka na?”

“Pucha kinakabahan ako.”

“Wag nga kayong maingay! Baka marinig kayo!”

“O dali game na, game na!”

“Teka teka, yung mic sa loob ng polo ayusin mo! Baka di ka marinig ng maayos sa video.”

“Bilisan niyo kaya! Baka umalis na yan! Masisira moment!”

“O basta dito lang kami sa likod. Kami na bahala. Game na! Game na!”

“Ayan na, naglalakad na palapit… Bitbit na yung gitara… Kunan mo bro!”

“Nyeta pare wag mo na kaya videohan, ikwento mo nalang kaya yung nangyayari?”

“Ssshhh! Ang iingay niyo!”

After a few seconds… guitar playing song intro…

You know I'd fall apart without you
I don't know how you do what you do
'Cause everything that don't make sense about me
Makes sense when I'm with you
Like everything that's green, girl, I need you
But it's more than one and one makes two
So put aside the math and the logic of it
You gotta know you're wanted too

'Cause I wanna wrap you up
I wanna kiss your lips
I wanna make you feel wanted
I wanna call you mine
Wanna hold your hand forever
And never let you forget it
Yeah I, wanna make you feel wanted…

“You came back…”

Zander: (nilapag dahan dahan yung gitara sa shore, Jill facing the beach, Zander facing Jill) I never left.

Jill: I thought…….

Zander: Well you thought wrong. I never said goodbye to you the first time because maybe a part of me knew that it wasn’t the end of us. I never said goodbye to you when I left this morning because I planned this whole thing in my head the moment I woke up beside you the other day. You won’t ever hear the words “goodbye” from me Jill because this is you and I. Now, always, forever, lahat na. I left the letters not because they don’t matter to me. I didn’t read them dahil gusto ko marinig mula sayo mismo lahat ng nakasulat dun. (wiped Jill’s tears with his hand, kissed her lips) Hinding hindi na ko mawawala sayo ulit. Hinding hindi na.

(Rocky’s voice on the video’s background, pabulong: Yung sunset pare, yung sunset kunan mo.

Caloy: Eh kung ikaw na kaya dito!)

 

Tumingin si Zander sa likod ni Jill. Nagtaka si Jill, napatingin sa tinitingnan ni Zander. Jill saw Caloy holding a video camera, beside him was Rocky, Trish, Mitch, Paolo and Ira. Ira was holding a stick while the rest of them were holding bouquets of red roses. Napatingin si Jill sa sand…….

(written on the sand)

WILL YOU MARRY ME?

Jill turned to Zander again.....

Zander: (kneeling, with a small black box on his hand) Jill… will you marry me?

-THE END-
