Gerald has a very fulfilling and inspired day.  Nanibago ng husto sa pagiging hyper niya ang kanyang handler at mga kasamahan sa shooting, even his friends are puzzled with the smile that never leave his face.  Si Fred, who is the closest person to him ay hindi rin masagot ang katanungan ng mga kasamahan dahil ni siya ay  ignorant  sa private life ni Gerald ngayon. 

Fred:  Sobrang inspire ka lately ha bro.  what’s up?

Gerald:  Hindi ba puedeng sabihin na magaan  lang ang pakiramdam ko  at gusto ko naman matapos ng maaga ang lahat ng commitments ko.  Also, I realize na there are a lot of positive things in life and sobra-sobra ang blessings na nareceived ko.  So why will I make myself gloomy.

Fred:  Pero Bro  wala naman akong nababalitaan na karelasyon mo ngayon ha.  It seems na  naghibernate ka when it comes to woman in your life.

Gerald:  Bakit Bro, kailangan bang may babae  sa buhay natin  para maging masaya.

Fred:  Hay  naku pare, mukha ka nga    maysakit.  If  you need me just call me ha.  Are we going bar hopping tonight?

Gerald:  Graduate na ko sa kanyang gimik, pare.  Let’s just eat and then I have to go straight home, ngayon ang balik nina Mommy eh.

Fred:  sure ka bro.  It seems  lately  we are seeing a different Gerald from the person we know  six months ago.  Sino ang nagpabago sa ‘yo.

Gerald:  Bakit Bro, di ba dati, you are always advising me to look into my life and re-evaluate ano ba talaga ang gusto ko sa buhay ko.  Now, naman na  I am trying to  refocus my direction and start with a clean slate, you are again questioning the reason why?  Di ba puedeng sabihin, wow si Gerald, nag mamature na.

Fred:  Sorry, Bro.  Ito naman di na mabiro, am just really happy to see a more focused and changed man.  Basta, we will always be here for you.  Sige mauna na ako.

Gerald on the otherhand silently reminisce the moment na  hinalikan siya ni Sarah, it was indeed a very special moment for him.  Halos, pigil hininga siya ng lumapit si Sarah sa kanya at ginawa yun  dare  na halikan siya on both  cheeks.  Ayaw nga  sana na niyang  maligo   mula noon dahil gusto niyang namnamin ang lambot ng labi na dumapi sa mukha niya.   Hay, what is happening to me?    Then he heard his name being called and when he looked at the door, he saw his friends all looking at him with questioning eyes.

Gerald:  Tigilan ninyo ako, you will not get any information from me and then he went out to join them.  They all went to their favorite restaurant and eat early dinner, and then Gerald beg off sa night out and went home.  Wala pa ang Mommy niya  so he  go to his room and  freshen up, and again got his iphone to look at his princess.   Naghinayang siya kasi ni hindi niya nakunan ng picture yuin special moment na iyon.  Then he played Sarah’s Forevermore CD and listen to her voice.  Lord, how can I reach out to her?  Ang hirap pala, bakit siya pa ang tinibok ng puso ko.  She is near and yet so far, mahirap maabot ang isang katulad ni Sarah G.    Kailangan kong mag-refocus.  Di  ito puede, nabubuhay  ako  sa  mundo ng pangarap.
