SCRIPT/DIALOGUE

YEAR 202F
INT. UNIT 2343, LIME RESIDENCES — NIGHT

Papers scattered across the bed. Ginny, in her lilac PJ's, stands beside the bed—wondering.

Santi enters the bedroom with a towel hanging from his neck.

SANTI
(laughs)
What, baby? We'll sleep beside these papers?

Ginny glares at Santi who stands beside her. She snatches the towel on his neck.

GINNY
OA. I'm just estimating gaano pa karami aaralin ko! Ang dami pa nga.

GINNY
And ang tagal mo maligo. Inaantok na ako...

Santi laughs before wrapping his arms around Ginny's waist. He buries his face in the crook of her neck.

SANTI
(smiling)
Sorry. Sleep na tayo. Halika na.

GINNY
Basa pa hair mo. Tuyuin muna natin.

GINNY
Ewan ko ba sa'yo. You like taking baths kapag super late na. Lamig-lamig na kaya ng tubig kapag gano'n.

SANTI
(laughs)
It's okay. Matutuyo rin 'yan sa aircon.

GINNY
E. Mababasa 'yung pillows.

GINNY
Upo ka muna. Ako na mag-dry ng hair mo.

Ginny pushes Santi to the bed when he remains standing. Santi laughs as Ginny stands in between his legs and cups his face.

GINNY
(laughs, staring at his face)
Daya talaga. Favorite ka ni Lord, 'no?

SANTI
(raising a brow, laughing)
Huh?

GINNY
Wala. Kainis. Ikaw lang yata 'yung kilala kong fresh right after ng 24-hour na duty.

SANTI
(smirks)
Yeah. Kita mo na. Told you back in college, you'd fucking never find a better face than this in medical school—aw! Aray!

GINNY
Nako. Yabang mo pa rin talaga!

SANTI
Sorry. What can I do? You chose me. I'm the luckiest guy.

Ginny rolls her eyes. Santi laughs harder.

Ginny brushes the damp strands of Santi's hair upward. Slightly massages his scalp—making Santi close his eyes a bit. He smiles at the feeling.
