Mother: Do not be too rude, can’t you see how happy our son is (direct your eyes to Maria and speak to her) Maria, welcome to our family, do not mind Father he is not just used to the idea of Leon being married.

Friend: I don’t care. Bitch! (pushes Maria) Leon: (will intervene) Hey stop that you are hurting the girl!

Maria: hmmm that sounds interesting, you know this time we should start to think of the future and their properties will be a lot of help to my family’s struggling business.

Friend: you pity that girl! My gosh. Go to hell! (leave)

Friend: but you think you can seduce him? They said that he is much focused in his studies that he is not that sociable.

Leon. You are the woman from yesterday right? You should be careful on choosing whom to be with.

Maria: well spare me, no one can resist the charm of a Maria you know. ‘(smirks)

Maria: but I do not have friends here…… can you be my friend.

Friend: but how about his looks it doesn’t matter to you? His attitude? His character?

Friend: sure as long as I have share to whatever you will get from him.

Leon: Okay then let us get married.

Maria: sure

Maria: really?! thank you Leon (then hugs him and then smirks evilly)

CURTAINS UP ! ! ! Narrator: Maria really wanted to win the heart of Leon. She was desperate for him to notice her. By all means, she would do anything to get what she wants. Leon is for her only. Scene 4: Maria is talking to her friend and waits for Leon to by, when they will see him, Maria’s friend started yelling at her. Friend: hey bitch you are really something. You think you’re pretty?

(tatalikod si Aurelia at mother, maria will look at Aurelia sharply) CURTAINS UP ! ! ! Scene 6 Narrator: the time runs fast and Maria and Leon already spent their first week in Nagrebcan. Leon’s family treated her just good except the coldness of his father. Aurelia, on the other hand, has been teaching Maria household chores and some other works. (they are in the batis)

Father: Leon I think I really need your help with our finances, you know that we have mortgaged everything to finance your studies right?

Aurelia: okay then I will just get some water at the ubbog I will return later. (leaves)

Maria: What finances is that! Are you not rich! You are famous in school for they said you own a hacienda and you are a son of an heredero!

Maria: (talks to herself) I hate this! OMG my nails, my poor nails! My hands, my skin, it might get rough. Why don’t they just pay someone to wash their clothes? They have money! Ughh! Now I’m the one suffering. (Maglaba ng hindi maayos at galit habang nagsasalita) If not just because I need the lad I will never do this. I hate this completely. (Aurelia will return carrying two bottles of water) Aurelia: if you are done carry this one and I will carry the washed clothes.

Leon: that is my role in the play in our school Maria! You know we had debts because father has to sell some of our properties to finance my studies. And the harvest this past years are not that good to pay for the debts. Maria: (shocked but angry) why did you not tell me even before! Leon: Does it matter? You love me and I love you. Isn’t that enough? (Hugs Maria) Maria: (resist Leon) Let me go I need to rest

Maria: sure

Leon: But….. okay.

(carries it like nahihirapan masyado. Leon will be on the other side of the stage. )

CURTAINS UP ! ! !

Leon(rush to maria to help her) Oh my Maria you are really hard working. Look at you… Maria: It’s because I love you. I’ll do anything for you. Leon: That’s my wife, my Maria. But Aurelia are you not being too hard on her? Aurelia: Brother what do you mean hard, all the women in this place do works like this? Leon: yeah but be considerate to your manang. She’s not like any other girl here. Maria: (hide a smirk from Leon)

Scene 9: Maria is asked to help mother wash the dishes Mother: can you please help me Maria, the pale is heavy I barely cannot carry this. Maria: ask Baldo old woman. Baldo: Manang, never talk to mother like that, do not call her names. Maria: who are you to command me? Baldo: what happened to you! Why are you like this? Maria: can you just shut up and carry the pale for that old woman, carrying the pale might kill her (chuckles!)

CURTAINS UP ! ! !

Baldo(yells) : How dare you talk to my mother that way! No one even my father talked to her that way! You have no respect! Awan babain mo!

Maria: (stands up and leaves) Whatever lame, poor Baldo.

Aurelia: okay I will.

(Baldo will comfort mother for she is hurt)

Baldo: Mother do not mind her, don’t worry I will tell manong about that. Mother: I thought she was kind. Baldo: that is what I thought too. Mother: We are all wrong about her. Your father was right. CURTAINS UP ! ! ! Scene 10: Baldo is talking to his brother Baldo: Manong. Leon: Yes, what is it Baldo? Baldo: Maria yelled at mother a while ago and she even called mother names. Leon: What? Baldo: Yesterday she called Manang Aurelia lazy and ugly. MAnong she is not that kind, she is rude.

Leon: (peeking) (Music-careless whisper) (after sometime, Clara was about to remove her clothes when Leon tripped) Clara: Aaah!! …..Bastos! Pervert! (throws things at him) Go away! Pervert! Leon: I’m sorry. It’s not my intention to peek at you. Clara: I saw you! Bastos ka! Go away. Leon: I’m really sorry. Clara: Don’t come near me! Leon: Forgive me. I’ll do anything. I’ll fetch you a water… (background: Sirok salamagi (Ilocano song). Leon will fetch water but Clara still won’t forgive him. Leon will ax the wood but clara refused him again. Leon will carry her things but still nothing changed. )

Leon: (angry, punch Baldo) don’t you dare talk about my wife that way. You are just jealous of her that is why you are bad mouthing her.

Scene 13 (harana. Manang biday. Pakipot si Clara but inside her she was flattered and happy)

Baldo: What? What are you saying, she did brainwash you already, manong open your eyes.

Manang Biday, ilukatmo man ‘Ta bintana ikalumbabam Ta kitaem ‘toy kinayawan Ay, matayakon no dinak kaasian 2x

Leon: (punch him again!) Say another word and you are done. Maria is a kind woman! Baldo: (already angry) You are blinded manong! If you did not leave maybe you and clara already had a family!.

(run away while crying) CURTAINS UP ! ! ! Scene 17 Instrumental song…. Narrator: The pain, the ache and soreness that Clara feels right now seems so never-ending. The feeling to be left by someone you truly love is the worst feeling of all. Leon used to hold her hand while walking, but now, he’s gone. Leon used to tell her funny jokes, but now he’s gone. She cannot imagine living her life without Leon by her side. But what if Leon finds another girl? She cannot hold her feelings anymore. Clara: (shouts) Leon! Why do you have to do this to me? You said you love me!... (runs then slips on the ground) Ahhh! Blood? Blood! Oh no my baby. Oh God don’t take my baby. (cries) CURTAINS UP ! ! !

Clara: Please stay… Leon please don’t go. Ayayaten ka la unay (cries) Leon: Ayayatek met lang sika. (hugs Clara but after some time he will leave and will let go of her) Clara: If you really love me, don’t leave me. If you really love me, you will stay with me. Leon: It’s hard in my part. Sorry… Clara: You said you will never hurt me! But now you’re leaving me. And it’s killing me inside. Leon don’t go please? I love you. Leon….(cries)

Clara: (Clara will slap Leon) How dare you ask me that way! You don’t know anything! You just left me! My baby, our baby, he’s gone. And you were not there! (slap him again or throw punches at him) Leon: (try to comfort her by hugging) I didn’t know sorry Clara: your sorry cannot bring back my child! (Leon will hug Clara) (Then after some time, Maria will see them.) Maria: you cheaters, you bitch! Not because we are having hard time you can now steal him away from me!

(heartbreak+pain+ache drama moment of Clara. Sad song as background-instrumental. TAGALAN MO DIN)

Maria: He is my husband! You bitch! Leon : (iwan mo si Clara tapos hilahin mo palabras si Maria na nagbubunganga) Clara, I will talk to you next time, (they will leave)

Scene 19: Leon and Maria are arguing Leon: what has gotten to you, why are you like that? Maria: What you cheating bastard! You are not even useful and now you are even cheating! Leon: I am just comforting Clara and why are you calling me useless? Maria: You know I tried everything to please your imbecilic father and that old woman just to impress them so that I can share your inheritance, but I am wrong I didn’t know you are rich in THAT play only! I worked for nothing! Leon: What are you saying! ? Maria: Cant you get it? I married you because I think you are rich and we need your land! Leon: you just used me! I loved you with all my heart, I disregarded the customs to please you yet, you fooled me? Maria: I do not care, I am leaving! I Am going back to manila! Leon: why? to look for rich man!? Maria: yes a rich man in reality! (then leaves. ) Leon is left alone sad and a bit teary eyed. His family will comfort him Mother: it is good son that you already opened your eyes. Leon: I am sorry mother, father, Baldo and adding (group hug) CURTAINS UP ! ! ! Scene 20 Leon is alone

Leon: should I ask Clara for forgiveness? Yes, it is the right thing to do.(then walks towards clara’s house) Leon: Clara! Clara! No one answers that is why he entered. Leon looked inside the house and he found nothing but a diary. Leon will read it but its Clara’s voice that can be heard. (music) Do you those times together The times we swore we’d spend together forever? Do you that fun that we shared In the comfort knowing that each of us cared? Do you the dares that we played That laughter and fun each of us made? Do you the promise we had? Together through good, together through bad. And do you how we got through Because you had me, and I had you? Do you when you had to go away Though I tried all my power, to make you stay? I begged you to stay, again and again. But do you you went away and left? Do you the way that I cried? You didn’t see, because you weren’t at my side. Do you the way we used to be I’m your princess and you’re my prince charming? You don’t , but I tell you I do, I’m here hopelessly waiting for you. Leon cries with music. Gandahan yung pagbasa ng poem ha? WITH FEELINGS. The end.
