BLACK.
May susulpot na text bubble. It's from Lee.
LEE: Hey, Sandoval. You free today?
Magkakaroon ng mahabang typing bago mag-reply si Adri.
ADRI: Yup!
LEE is typing . . .
FADE TO BLACK.
LEE, THE MOTION.
Cue music.

INT. BAHAY NI ADRI - NOON
TEXT: 8 noons before b-day (when you choose lee)
Adri, nagpe-prepare ng sarili para sa pag-alis. Ligo, toothbrush. Nag-pamper siya ng sarili with mask, nail polish. Naglagay siya ng makeup at nag-ayos ng buhok.
Mamimili din siya ng damit para sa pag-alis nila ni Lee. Ang daming damit sa kama niya pagkatapos.
Habang nagpe-prep si Adri, nagpa-pop ang messages nina Lee at Adri sa screen.
LEE: I'll pick you up.
ADRI: Huh? May kotse ka pala?
LEE: Wala. Borrowed.
ADRI: What? Wag na. Mag-commute na lang tayo. Magkita na lang tayo somewhere. Saan ba tayo pupunta?
LEE: Too late nahiram ko na haha. I'll pick you up para goods first impression.
ADRI: First impression? Haha
Matatapos ang pag-aayos ni Adri when she looked at her phone to see Lee's latest reply.
LEE: For our first date.
Adri couldn't help but to smile. Pinipigilan pa niya pero umirap na lang siya.
ADRI: Baliw haha
LEE: Hey, I'm serious
ADRI: Yea right
Kinilig pa si Adri nang sinilip niya ang message nila ni Chan. Walang kahit anong reply nung tinanong ni Adri ng "bakit?". Huminga siya nang malalim. Mukhang hindi naman pala importante. Hayaan na.
Adri heard a honk.
Sumilip siya.
Nakita niya si Lee na nakasandal sa isang kotse. Bumulong si Adri.
ADRI
Kainis. Ang pogi.
EXT. LABAS NG BAHAY NI ADRI - NOON
Nang maglakad si Adri palapit kay Lee, magkatinginan sila. They both are smiling at each other.
