CHAPTER 13 : TOUCHING SCENE

You are right, mom! I will wait for the right time when he will come back to me. I know Kingsley, he loves me but he sacrificed his happiness, our happiness to prove that he deserves to be given a chance to show you his worth fighting for, Mianne delivered the line full of emotion made Tanya cried too.

See. We are both crying. You’ll see each other soon, Sophie. If Kingsley really loves you, he will come back to fulfill his promise, Tanya uttered while wiping her tears. You better take a rest. You have work to tomorrow you have to appeared the most beautiful employee in the company because you are the only daughter of the CEO, she added sarcastically.

Hey mom! Are you telling me that I’m not that beautiful enough? Ouch. Char! Thank you, mom, Mianne hugged Tanya. Oh! By the way, is dad already home? She asked.

I’m still waiting for your dad. You know him, he always come home late at night. Your dad is a workaholic person. I’ll be leaving your room so, you can sleep now. Your dad will be got mad at me if he didn’t see me inside our room for sure, Tanya uttered the line very well and she gets up into the bed and left the room while Mianne left staring at the moon outside while lying on her bed holding a pillow.

And Cut!

Direct Ysa clapped on them. What a very satisfying scene you have done! Great job ladies.

Mianne, Chant, you prepare for the second to the last part of the scene okay? Florence are you ready? Tanya you stay there. The next part is Sophie’s parents’ scene, Direct Ysa commanded them.

The scene is, Sophie’s mom is at their room waiting for her husband. Sophie’s dad will go straight to their room and will reveal to his wife that he hired a private investigator to follow Kingsley every step of the way. They will talk about how they will set up each other reuniting their hearts.

Is everybody ready? The director asked them.

Yes, direct! The casts confidently answered.

Okay! Let’s do it! Lights… Camera… Action!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Darling, where are you? Florence goes upstairs and open the door of their room. Oh! Darling, you are here, he delivered the line like he was drunk.

Darling? Are you drunk? Where have you been? I thought you were in the office? Tanya delivered the line in a confused wondered tone.

Darleeeenggg, I was wrong judging Kingsley. You are right. He is a good person, Florence said in a regretful thought tone.

What are you talking about? It’s been four (4) years when Kingsley left our daughter. Why all of a sudden you uttered his name? Did you meet him earlier before you go home that’s why you are drunk? Tanya gave her best facial expression and eye contact to Florence.

They almost fell on the floor when her husband unintentionally hugged her because of drowsiness.

Kingsley is a very good person, her husband uttered before he fell asleep.

And Cut!

Let’s do the next part, the moment they wake up in the morning.

Come on! Make it faster! Retouch their make ups and fix their hairs as fast as you can, the director commanded.

In 3…2…1… Lights… Camera… Action!

Ah! Florence yawned. Good mo... he cuts his words after he notice that he’s alone in the room, his wife is not there. After few minutes, Tanya brought him a breakfast in bed. The first tray consists of plate of rice, a bowl with breaded fish fillet with sweet sauce with black coffee. The second tray consists of water and a tablet of medicine for headache.

Tanya sat beside Florence checking on her husband’s body temperature holding his forehead down to his cheeks to neck, Tanya showed how much she cares about the character in front of her. You are not sick. You take your breakfast now, we have something to talk about with, Tanya added.

After 15 minutes, she asked her husband about Kingsley.

Darling, I have something to tell you, Florence uttered while holding Tanya’s both hands. It’s about Kingsley.

What’s about Kingsley? Where is he? Tanya asked him.

Kingsley is successful now. Please pull the first drawer box, get the envelope inside of it, Florence requested and Tanya did. What’s in here, darling?

Open it darling, it’s all about Kingsley, he answered.

Tanya opened the envelope and she saw Kingsley’s pictures while studying and while working at the same time. Where did you get this darling? Don’t tell me you hired a private investigator to follow Kingsley? Florence didn’t utter any words, he just nodded to his wife.

Oh no! Ugh! This is unbelievable, you did that? Why? Tanya said in a high tone.

Yes, darling. I want to see if he’s really a good person and what he will do in the entire years after he had decided leaving our daughter. Look at him now, he’s a successful Civil Engineer now. Last night, I came into their house to talk to him but I refused to continue. I was so ashamed of what I did to him before. I judged him, I criticized his whole personality, his humanity. That night, I saw him holding Sophie’s picture. He truly loves our daughter, darling. He did every kind of work to finish his studies, Florence delivered the line genuinely.

4 years had passed without seeing her personally but he did his best to be in where is he now. That man really deserves to be with our daughter, Florence delivered the line like he was already convinced that Kingsley and Sophie are meant for each other.

It seems like both of them are doing the same thing when they missed each other. I saw Sophie holding Kingsley’s picture while looking above the sky, she thinking so deep.

Since when did you hire a private investigator? His wife asked him.

Since the day he left our daughter alone in the park where they met, he answered.

What? Since, the last day Kingsley saw our daughter, the last day our daughter saw the man she really loves. They both doing great now. So, what’s your plan? His wife asked him.

I want to do something for the both of them, darling. I want them to be reunited. I know, how much the pain I brought to the both of them when I separated them. Your daughter will surely be happy if she saw Kingsley again.

Uh! You are going to do that for our daughter, darling? She asked her husband seriously.

The company where Kingsley is currently working is our company partner. I will ask the owner of his company to help us decide for the new building I am planning to build this year and I want Kingsley to coordinate with us. Then, ask your daughter to join the board meeting as her training to be the COO of the company, Florence delivered the line like he experienced being a CEO.
