today's confettis of the page of tomorrow

this is great. really.---life.

since this blog is named auditorium (which i really haven't explained why until...now), because life is one big rehearsal of what will be forever. right now i am gathering the pages of the script of Act II of my life. so i am going to start in the middle of the beggining

Cast:

Louie Anne
Ciggy Boy

Partial Summary (?)

Well as of this time. Ciggy is suffering from quarter life crisis (if ever there is) and Louie is having quite a hard time figuring out how to comfort him from time to time. Ciggy and Louie have a lot of secret plans which will be revealed later, depending if those secrets will take place. but the supposed to be not-scary evident thing is, Louie will be leaving for Australia and Ciggy wouldn't want to be far away from her, so he is, as if calm but frantic in looking for jobs in Australia. not only that, he is looking for a lot of ways in going with Louie there. every possible thing. He doesn't want to tell Louie to stay because before he was there, the passion to leave for Aussie has embraced her. so in short, this is the part of the script which we will call -

"The Impending Australian Hitch"

Script Confetti 1

INT. AT THE UPPER ROOM (CIGGY BOY'S MAKATI FLAT)
Louie has fallen asleep, ciggy is feeling sad for no particular reason. maybe with his job in which he has been screwing up lately, or maybe louie fell asleep because she's dead drunk and ciggy has no one to talk to or maybe he's thinking of the day that Louie will leave for australia or just maybe it's raining and his quarter life melancholic crisis has sunk like a dried leaf in the gutter stampede by running water.

CIGGY
Love... i can't sleep and i don't know why i feel bad.

LOUIE
(snoring)

CIGGY
Love... (falling off the pillow and lies on his back while caressing louie's hand with his which is under her neck) please... i can't sleep

LOUIE
hmmmm (and snores)

(ciggy gets out of the mattress, goes to the window, opens the jalousie and stares at the lines that the rain has drawn on an urban picture for 5 minutes with a heavy face, and goes back to bed)

CIGGY
Love...please wake up i can't sleep i feel bad i dont know why.

LOUIE
(grunts, gets up, goes to the loo and goes back to bed, spreads her left arm and signals ciggy to sleep in her arms and so he did) why?

CIGGY
i don't know. i have this anxiety attack again. i'm sorry if i am this these days.

LOUIE
(groggy, tipsy, drunk) what do you want me to do?

CIGGY
Just be here

LOUIE
i am always here

(silence for a moment)

LOUIE
Go to sleep

CIGGY
(deep breath)

(fade up sound of rain drumming the roof)
***

Script Confetti 2

INT. AT THE HIDEAWAY (LOUIE ANNE'S QC FLAT)
On the bed with HBO acting like a radio because neither of them wanted to watch TV but decided to just turn it on for whatever's sake.

LOUIE
I don't want to be away from you

CIGGY
What else can we do?

LOUIE
If ever i'l go to Ausie without you i will try my darndest best to get you there the fastest time

CIGGY
that's why we've been passing my resume to every possible employer so that we can leave together

LOUIE
pray pray pray

CIGGY
I'll try my best to do a lot of things for Aussie this week. if you're already in Aussie and if a year has passed and am still not there, i want your butt back here.

LOUIE
because?

CIGGY
we'll get married

LOUIE
(smiles) for sure. i'll go home. am excited.

CIGGY
so am i

(TV sound fades out as if the tv is turned off)
