January 2019...

It's pouring rain. "We need to stop this," she said shedding tears inside the car. "I can't bare the guilt of hurting him. I can't do it anymore."

"Then leave him!" He said holding her hand tightly. He kiss her hand as his tears threatens to fall. "I'll leave her, too. Let's get out of here! I can drop everything to be with you."

"Babe," She hold his face. "She's good to you. She loves you. She loves you more than you think you love her."

"Please don't give up. We can do this. I love you," he cries.

"I love you more than you know." She kiss him on the lips.

He return her kiss.

Year 2020

"Sarah," a man said. "Are you with me? Sarah!"

"Huh?" She awoke from day dreaming.

"Are you okay? Something bothering you?"

"No," she clear her throat. "No... No. Continue."

"Okay, so with your 15 years in the showbiz. We are thinking a huge concert!" Boss Vic announced. "Na mimiss ka na ng mga fans mo. I think your vacation is long enough? Yeah?"

"Oo nga naman anak. Ang dami na nag re-request na mag concert ka na ulit," sabi ni Mommy. "Last concert mo 2016 pa."

"Okay naman po sa akin," she faked smile.

Nasa Viva Headquarters sila ng kanyang mga magulang. They just came from New York for a month long vacation. Prior to that she also spent two weeks in Paris with her siblings on New Years and one week in Hawaii with Mateo.

After her last concert in 2016 she laid low on movies, tv shows and concerts. She wanted to take some time off from her hectic schedule and give way to finish school. Now, that everything she asked for and wanted was granted. But she still ask herself the question that she always try to avoid. "Am I happy?"

"Mr. Anderson! Best Actor in Canes Film Festival from the movie Banka! Congratulations!" Announced ni Tito boy sa nag babalik na The Buzz.

"Thank you Tito Boy," Gerald shake his hand. "This is for the country." He raise his trophy.

"Let's talk about Paris. The Canes. Ano ang feeling?" They both sit down.

Gerald talked about his experience in Canes and the actors he met. He was so excited and happy while telling his experiences.

"Gerald, maiba naman tayo. You're almost 30 years old. What's is next? Do we hear wedding bells?" Tito Boy ask.

"Wow. Ha ha ha... What is next?" He scratch his head. "Honestly, I don't know. Kung ano man mangyari tatangapin ko," he chuckles.

Tito Boy laugh with him. "Kayo ni Bea? Do we hear wedding bells?"

"Aaaahhhh..." He smile. "Ummm... I'm not gonna lie the topic crosses our minds constantly. Na pagusapan namin na if it's the right time we will know. We're going with the flow."

Halos 3 years na sila ni Bea. Nag ka balikan sila after ng movie nila. And after that everything was going smoothly with their relationship. Many are with them some are against them, but it doesn't bother them. As long as there is love between them.

His career is at its peak. He's always in demand. A lot of sponsors and movies and TV offers. He's the number 1 in his generation. What else could he possibly want in his life?

It's Sunday morning. He woke up early because his call time is early. He has to practice his opening number and other acts. When he check his cellphone there were a lot of reminders alarm and texts from Bea greeting him a good morning. But there is an unknown number congratulating him. He knows who it is. He can't help but smile. He deleted the text right away.

She walks in the hallway of ABS CBN towards the ASAP studio. Greeted everyone she passes. Trailing her are her parents and glam team. She checks her phone to reply to her boyfriend who texted her good morning.

She enters the studio where it all began. Where they met, where their love started. She's surprise to see him in the studio.

He was also surprise to see her back. He thought she won't be back for another two weeks. Their eyes lock. It has been a while since they saw each other in person. He was busy. She was busy and on vacation. She can't help but feel emotional. It took her back to the time she avoid thinking back.

He stare at her like he's seeing a ghost. The last time he saw her in person it broke him apart. It took him back in that rainy night where they bid each other good bye. The night that he will never forget.

No one was at the studio yet. Sarah's team and parents are in her dressing room setting up. "I-I heard about the Canes." She broke the silence. She walks towards the stage. "Congratulations."

Gerald is alone and on the stage. "Thank you," he reply. "Akala ko vacation ka pa?"

"Tapos na. Back to reality," she fake smile. She gets on the stage and now face to face with him but five feet apart. "How are you?"

"How can you ask me that?! I'm broken Sarah!" He said softly but in so much anger. "Four months! Hindi ka nag paramdam!"

"And you think I'm not?!" She strike back. "But look at you! You have accomplished so much! And I am. So. Proud of you Ge!"

"I want you!" He yell. The studio is filled with his echo. He holds back his tears.

A tear roll down her cheek. She quickly wipe it. She slowly step back away from him.

"Okay! Let's get this rehearsals going!" Teacher G applause while entering the studio. "Gerald! Ikaw una!"
