【ON GOING】Clyde Molina is not your typical millennial girl. Imbes kasi na magpakalunod siya na makarami ng likes sa social media ay mas gugustuhin niyang makarami siya ng mahahanap at mapapanood na old and classic films. Nang dahil naman sa kanyang...

Few months later...
"BYE CLYDE!" paalam ng mga kaklase ni Clyde na sina Mia at Chloe pagkalabas nila ng gate ng university.
"Bye..." mahinang tugon niya sa mga ito sabay kaway. Uuwi na sa kani-kanilang boarding house ang dalawa panigurado.
It's a drizzly afternoon again, brought by the upcoming typhoon that will hit the country, so she opened her umbrella before putting on her earphones on both ears as she started sauntering her way down to the busy street of Greco trading district.
It's been a few months since she started hanging out with Mia and Chloe. Wala naman sigurong masama kung susubukan niyang iacknowledge ang ini-offer na friendship ng dalawa, mabait naman sila sa kanya at tinutulungan siya ng mga ito sa studies niya. Hindi na rin mahirap pakisamahan ang dalawa dahil tulad niya ay mahilig rin ang mga ito sa mga pelikula pero documentaries at mga pelikulang base sa totoong buhay nga lang ang pinakanakinahihiligan nila. Tuwang-tuwa naman siyang may mga natutunang bagong interes sa larangan ng pelikula sa tulong nina Mia at Chloe.
She got interested with documentary films lately that she never thought she'll enjoy before, especially the documentaries about famous personalities. Documentary lang kasi ng talambuhay ni James Dean ang nasubukan lang niyang panoorin noon, but now she started to broaden her horizons and started to appreciate the variety the film industry could offer.
Tumigil muna siya sa paglalakad nang maalalang magtext muna kay Tita Becky niya nagsabi kaninang gusto siyang tagpuin sa sikat na Filipino restaurant sa lugar dahil may sorpresa ito sa kanya. Thank God, she doesn't have a shift at Poppy Hill today.
I'm on my way, saad niya sa text at nakangiting nagpatuloy sa paglalakad.
May kutob na siya kung ano ang sorpresa ng tita niya but whatever it is, she wanted to keep the thrill so she didn't prod her aunt further about it.
With her right hand gripping tightly on the umbrella handle while humming along with an upbeat The Beatles' song on her earphone, she almost felt like in a classic movie scene and this could almost feel like a perfect afternoon. But her movie fantasy stopped when the beat of the only contemporary song in her playlist, 'Iris', dropped and then she was back with reality as her memories with Beau during the Halloween Party overflowed like a broken dam.
And I'd give up forever to touch you 'Cause I know that you-
Bago pa matapos ang pangalawang linya ng kanta ay tinanggal niya earphones niya sa tainga at napabuntong-hininga lamang. As expected, she's not doing a good job on forgetting about him. It's Beaumont Pavia, the person who made her feel like in a movie at some point in her life.
