《Out of Character | Darlentina》Chapter Six
Advertisement
Narda was silently watching behind the camera, Brian's face was painted with concern while his eyes are searching frantically but after three rings from the phone, she entered the frame.
"Narda!" Nagaalalang sigaw ng binata habang niyakap niya ito ng pagkahigpit higpit
"Cut!" Sigaw ng director habang kinakamot ang kanyang kilay "Jane" He sighed "Lagyan mo naman ng kaunting saya yung mga mata mo dahil nagaalala yung leading man mo"
"Joshua wag pakasobrahan ang yakap parang sasakalin mo na siya eh"
"Okay po direk" They agreed in Unison
"Sorry po" Jane said as she tried to compose herself and turn the switch for her actress mode
"Huy kiligin ka naman ng konti sakin" Nanlolokong pagsangayon ni Joshua kaya nakatangap siya ng marahang suntok mula sa dalaga "Aray naman!"
"Okay stand by tayo for retake! In three two one! Action!"

Naglabas ng malalim na buntong hininga si Jane ng matapos ang third scene niya with Joshua at sawang sawa na siya sa pagmumukha nito dahil buong araw silang matatake ng scenes ni Brian at Narda
"Huy!" Pangungulit sa kanya ni Joshua habang minamakeupan siya para sa green screen shot ni Darna at Brian na lumilipad
"Ano nanaman!" Natatawang sabi niya habang inirapan ang kabuteng sumulpot sa kanyang tabi
"May tanong ako" Ani niya habang sumusulyap sa make up artist ni Jane, nanahimik muna ito ng ilang minuto kaya napagpasyahan na ni Jane na siya muna ang magtanong "Anong tanong nanaman yan? Pagkalokohan yan bahala ka sa buhay mo"
"Uy hindi!" Depensa niya at marahang tinapik ang braso ni Jane
Natigil ang kanilang biruan nang magpaalam ang make up artist ni Jane upang kumuha ng panibagong set ng make up brush at concealer
Nang makalabas na ito ng pinto ay agad niyang tinaasan ng kilay ang binata "So anong tanong mo?"

Nahihiya niyang kinamot ang kanyang batok tska ngumiti "About sana dun sa choco drink na binigay mo kay Jea kagabi tska kaninang umaga bago mag start yung shoot niya"
"Oh tapos?" Naguguluhan at naiinis niyang tanong dahil naalala niya ang pagtataray ni Jea kaninang umaga sa hindi niya malamang dahilan "Alam mo sasapukin na kita napaka pabitin mo!"
"Patapusin mo muna kasi ako!" Joshua said and pulled a long sighed habang tinatangal ang sumbrero niyang pampulis "Magkakilala na kami ni Jea for three years and alam ko na hindi niya basta bastang inuuadjust ang standards niya para sa mga bagay bagay. Kapag ayaw niya, ayaw niya talaga"
Panandalian siyang nanahimik at tinitigan ang walang lamang paper cup na nakalagay sa lamesa "But last night i was shocked kasi ininom niya yung binigay mo at talagang inubos niyang lahat and the only thing na tinira niya ay yung baso kulang na nga lang pati yung baso kainin niya eh" Ani niya ng may halong pagbibiro "Sa three years naming magkakilala ito yung first time na umubos siya ng flavored beverage"
He sadly took the paper cup from the table and throw it at the bin "Kapag binibigyan ko siya ng green tea halos kalahati nun natatapon lang"
Muli siyang umupo sa tabi ni Jane at ngumiti ng pagkalaki laki habang nakahalumbaba sa Vanity Mirror
"Oh tapos?" Nagmamaang-maangan na tanong ng dalaga, alam niyang masama ang magdamot pero sa ngayon mas pakikingan niya ang demonyong bahagi ng kanyang isipan para sa kanyang pansariling interest
"Sabihin mo sakin kung anong brand nung choco drink" He said and playfully wiggled his brows
"Bakit ko sasabihin sayo?" Taas kilay na tanong niya "Tska sa three years na kakilala mo si Jea di mo manlang inalam ang drink na gusto niya?"

"I tried" Nakasimangot na sagot ng binata "Eh sabi niya wala daw eh! Kaya ikaw ang susi, ano yung brand ng choco drink?"
"Ayokong sabihin"
"Eto naman ang damot" Nagtatampong ani ni Joshua "Ano ba yan Milo? Ovaltine? Chuckie? Bear Brand? Swiss miss?"
Jane just shrugged and grab her phone for distraction at philosopong sumagot "Great taste Choco"
"Langya naman seryoso kasi, sige na sabihin mo na sakin"
Jane grits her teeth bago niya ito muling hinarap "Bakit ba kailangan mo pang malaman?"
"Para dagdag pogi points" nakangiting saad niya pero agad na nagseryoso ang kanyang mukha ng mapansin niya ang naiinis na tingin ng dalaga "Mahal ko parin si Jea" pagamin niya "And i want to pursue her once again"
Kumunot ang noo ni Jane "Akala ko ba ang dinadate mo ay yung vlogger?"
"Yes we are causally dating pero hindi pa kami official" He rubbed his face with a fumbling hand and closed his eyes
"Everytime na nakikita ko si Jea, napakadaming what if's na tumatakbo sa isip, What if umamin ako nung una palang? What if i choose her over Julia? What if his ex didn't came into the picture? What if mas masaya kung naging kami nalang dalawa?" He opened his eyes at mariing tinitigan si Jane "What if yung break up ko with Julia and break up niya with Argus ay nangyari because were really meant to be together?"
"What if hindi?" Jane crossed her arms habang ang buong paligid ay binalot ng katahimikan at mabigat na presensya ng bawat isa "Kapag ba pumasok ka sa buhay niya handa kang manindigan? Are willing to fight the same battles that she's fighting for?"
Napaiwas ng tingin ang binata then he lick his lips at sinubukang humanap ng sagot para sa mga tanong na ibinabato sa kanya ngunit walang ni isang salita ang lumabas sa kanyang bibig "Ano yon basta ka nalang bang papasok sa buhay niya dala dala yang mga hopes and what if's mo without even thinking kung kaya mo bang pag-ingatan yung nararamdaman niya? What if hindi pala ganun yung outcome kagaya ng mga inaasahan mo? Are you willing to stay?"
She paused habang huminga siya ng malalim "Or hindi kasi meron ka ng spare tire na naghihintay if ever na hindi nasagot yung mga what if's mo the way you want them to be?"
"Mahal ko si Jea" Madiin ngunit pabulong na sagot ni Joshua
"Okay" Jane said as she tried to loosen up dahil ayaw niyang makaapekto sa trabaho nila ang paguusap na nangyayari ngayon "After all emotions mo yan, wala akong karapatang pigilan yang nararamdaman mo" Tumayo siya sa kanyang kinauupuan at lumapit sa kanya "Pero sana bago ka kumatok sa buhay niya may dala kang plano at paninindigan hindi yung puro hopes and what ifs lang" mahinahong sabi at tinapik ang braso nito "Nasa Cosmopolitan magazine yon"
Nagtatakang tinignan siya ng binata "Yung brand ng choco drink" she smile and meet his eyes "Nandun sa magazine interview niya during be careful with my heart era" She explained and ready to leave but Joshua pulled her wrist and asked "Were good right?"
Jane nodded "Yeah were good" after that napagpasyahan niya munang lumabas upang magpahangin habang iniisip kung saan nangaling ang mga salitang binitawan niya.
