Bukas Na Lang Kita Mamahalin

Chapter Eight: New and Old Love

November 13, 2013, AM

Busy ang lahat na magprepare sa next scene ni Sarah at Gerald. Wala pa si Sarah sa site, at nag-aaral na si Gerald ng script nya.

While reading his script, a newspaper came his way. He looked at it.

"Ate Nhila, anong meron dito?"

"Basahin mo yung headline dyan."

He grabbed the newspaper and did as she said. Into his shock, he looked at the headline closer:

Ayaw na kay 'Babe':

Sarah nagkulong kasama si Matteo!

"NAGKULONG!?!"

"Kaya ka ba nag-react ng ganyan ay dahil alam mong nagbago na si Sarah o..."

Nilingon nya si Ate Nhila. "O? Nagseselos ako? Ate Nhila, mahal ko si Marlet. I won't do it to her."

"Relax, Gerald. What I'm saying is, dahil nadawit yung pangalan mo dito as 'Babe'. Haay, naku naman." She went out.

He felt he was over protective. "Oo na, selos ako. But I must not be." He went out of his tent to feel some fresh air outside.

Paglabas nya, Sarah was there already, reading the same newspaper he was holding. Direk Cathy was beside her.

"Sarah, mahal kita kaya pinakita ko na 'to sa'yo agad.," Direk Cathy said.

Gerald was hiding, listening to them.

"Pero Direk Cathy, di po 'to totoo eh." She explained what happened why that happened.

"I believe you. But the press? They won't. Mag-explain ka dun." Her lips pouted to the direction of the press people on that area. Lumapit ang mga reporters kay Sarah. Nagtago agad si Geraldpara di sya maissue, but he wanted to support Sarah from the rude press people.

Para malibang naman sya habang hinihintay na umalis ang mga reporters at press people, binasa nya muna ang article tungkol kay Sarah at Matteo sa Pilipino Star Ngayon.

Tumitibok ng mabilis ang puso nya. Kinakabahan sya kung ano ang nilalaman ng article na 'yon, kung paano o bakit sila nagkulong ni Matteo. Kahit sabihin man ni Sarah na di sila nagkulong, there's still a reason kung bakit sila nakitang magkasama. Maybe it was a sign that their relationship will and must end at pagiging friends na lang ang kahihinatnan nila. Maybe it's meant for them to go in separate ways...

Hinanap nya iyon sa gitna na page ng dyaryo. Agad nyang nakita ang malaking picture nilang tatlo: ang picture nila sa Catch Me, I'm In Love, dahil sa pelikulang iyon ay nagkasama silang tatlo.

He started reading it quietly.

Ayaw na kay 'Babe':

Sarah nagkulong kasama si Matteo!

Tiyak nang may huling hantungan ang relasyon ng mag-Babe na sina Popstar Princess Sarah Geronimo at ang rumored ex-boyfriend nyang si Action Drama Prince Gerald Anderson matapos na nakitang spotted si Sarah at Matteo na lumabas sa dressing room ng singer at matagal na nagkulong.

Ang kaganapang ito ay nangyari nitong Lunes lamang, ayon sa aming mapagkakatiwalaang source. Pumunta daw si Matteo sa dressing room ng dalaga, na umiiyak dahil kay Gerald dahil nasasaktan daw sya tuwing nakikita nya ito. Sakto ay nang umaga ng November 11 ay ang first day ng shooting ng third movie nila na may working title na 'Love Takes Time.' At its been more than a year since hindi sila nagsalita about sa rumored break up nila.
