Pagpapahayag: Lahat ng pangyayari sa salaysay na ito ay pawang kathang-isip lamang. Ang pagkakatulad sa tao, lugar, kaganapan at tiyempo ay nagkataon lamang. Itong panulat na ito ay isang script para sa isang maikling experimental film at gusto kong ibahagi sa inyo ang pagtatangka ng inyong lingkod sa larangan ng sining na ito. Ang unang lalabas na mga tala ay yaong nahuhuling sequences para pag nagbasa kayo ay mula sa unang hanggang sa huling sequence ng script. 

SEQUENCE 1

Queenie: I do not like what you are doing to me?
Dingdong: What do you mean?
Queenie: Let us stop this charade. You are disturbing my life. You are already married and I do not want complications in my life. I don’t want to be perceived as someone destroying a family.
Dingdong: You were my life before now and today…
Queenie: Yah, but that was yesterday…But what about now?
Dingdong: What is important is that this heart still beats for yesterday. (And he planted a tender kiss on the lips of Person 1. CUT……end of sequence)


SEQUENCE 2:
Queenie : Bakit kaya siya nagmiscall sa akin?
Costabien: Tawagan mo kaya baka meron gustong sabihin.
Amapola: Itext mo kaya siya. Queenie: Sige itext ko…..(Nagtext ng I luv u….)
Maya-maya nagring ng phone:
Queenie: Hello…..
Margot: (Girl: Bakit ka nagtext sa akin?)
Queenie: Nagtext?
Margot: Oo nagtext ka sa isang number ko?
Queenie: Sorry wala akong tinetext… (Clicked the phone off)
Nagring ulit ang phone:
Costabien: Hello….sino po sila?
Margot: Bakit po kayo nagtetext sa cellphone ko.
Costabien: Ay wala po namang nagtetext. Siguro ibang tao dahil this is a business phone….

(Oh lalalala….. Scene CUT…….Ready for SEQUENCE 3)


SEQUENCE 3:

(Dut….dut….dut…..Me txt message)

Queenie: (Read the text message of Dingdong: “Text message mo was read by my wife.”)
Queenie: (Texted back: “Yun na nga eh. I was telling Costabien and Amapola that it might be your wife who will get the message.)
Dingdong: (Texted back: Ganon ba. Di bale ok lang)
Queenie: (Texted back: So sorry talaga. I would have wanted to text you “kumusta” but I cannot understand why I texted “Luv u.” Ayan tuloy nagkagalit kayo ni wife mo….)
Dingdong: (Texted back: No problem, situation under control.)
Queenie: (Texted back: Ah ok. Next time I will not text you anymore. I will just wait for any text coming from you before I will text you back.)

Cellphone rang…Quennie saw the number that the call was coming from Dingdong’s number. There is a sense of hesitation before the phone was answered. But Queenie answered it anyway.

Queenie: Hello…..
Dingdong: Hello…..
Queenie: Sino to?
Dingdong: It’s me…..
Queenie: Just want to be sure….Baka bigla na lang akong mamura dito sa phone.
Dingdong: Hindi naman….
Queenie: Yan na nga ba sinasabi ko na tigilan na natin ito….Magkakakumplikasyon at magkakakumplikasyon ng ganito…
Dingdong: Wag na nating pag-usapan yan….
Queenie: Bakit hindi natin pag-usapan e it is a problem that befalls me…
Dingdong: You are only here for a few weeks and do not get these things muddle the little time we are together…
Queenie: Huh…..What do you mean? I did not come here for a vacation just put a knot once again to a relationship that I supposed ended last year.
Dingdong: I did not end it….
Queenie: Can’t you understand? Last year I did not entertain your visit. Even though you insisted to see me but I did not…I supposed that you have read the message across….
Dingdong: I did….But I do not want to lose you….
Queenie: Lose me? That’s funny….Everyone knows, I am always at the losing end. I am ready for any eventuality when I entered this relationship with you. Last year was the end…Why do you want a relationship that is not going to last anyway….You have you family now….
Dingdong: But can’t we just be friends….
Queenie: Friends? Well, yes but I am not ready for this kind of friendship….
Dingdong: I understand. But I miss you…
Queenie: There are times that those feelings should be set aside for other things. Let us be true to the reality of today…
Dingdong: Okay, then…By the way when are we going to Baguio?
Queenie: Baguio? Do you still intend to join me there, after what had happened?
Dingdong: Don’t think about those things. Just asking because we will be going to Manila over the weekend.
Queenie: See? That’s what I am telling you….I am just a second fiddle to you….
Dingdong: Hindi naman….
Queenie: Teka teka, bakit ang tagal tagal na nating nag-uusap…Baka maubusan ka nang load.
Dingdong: No, nakaunlimited ako……
Queenie: Ah ganon….

(CUT…..Then conversation was zapped up. Yung unlimited call might have just been limited only to 10 minutes….END OF SEQUENCE
