Interview #1

Our Side of the Story

 

[ the video started with Johnny entering the studio alone, a smile plastered on his lips as he settles on the chair ]

 

"So uh.. tama ba ginawa ko guys?" The man joked, making the staff behind the camera laugh.

 

"Can you introduce yourself first?"

 

Johnny : Ah yes, of course. Hi, I'm Johnny Suh, 27, and I'm currently working as a film set photographer.

 

"Paano mo siya nakilala?"

 

Johnny : Nakilala ko siya dahil same university kami nag-aral, he studied Economics while I was a photography major. Yung common friend namin, si Taeyong, ang nagpakilala sa'min sa isa't isa.

 

[ Johnny stopped for a moment, laughing for he remembered something ]

 

Johnny : I guess he's already kind of drunk when we were introduced to each other, namumula na kasi pisngi niya noon – which I soon learned was a sign na malapit na niyang lagpasan ang alcohol limit niya. For some reasons, hindi ko mahanap ang mga kaibigan niya and I don't know where he lives so I took him to my dorm muna. I was sure that he was blackout drunk, clingy e. *laughs* when he fell asleep again, iniwan ko muna siya sa kwarto ko at natulog sa sofa. It wasn't until he woke me up a few hours later, saying that he's going na. Of course, I didn't want to let him go in that state so hinatid ko siya. 

 

"Paano mo narealize na gusto mo siya?"

 

Johnny : Since the first encounter was followed by another.. I probably realized it on my birthday. We ate somewhere, e may 3 hours vacant pa ako before my afternoon class at ayaw pa niyang umuwi kaya niyaya ko muna siya sa dorm ko. Sabi ko maliligo lang ako ulit habang nag-iisip siya kung saan niya gustong pumunta, pero natapos na ako at lahat, nandoon pa din siya at komportableng nakahiga sa kama ko. We ended up staying in, watching random videos, but then, nagkatinginan kami and we both know we have this tension between us. We don't know who initiated it, but we kissed. Alam mo yung pakiramdam na parang it feels warm in your chest? *Chuckles* That's how I felt at that moment. Dun ko napagtanto na ah, gusto ko na nga talaga 'to.

 

[ The staff behind the camera asked, ``Naging kayo ba?' making Johnny force out a smile and shake his head then answered no. ]

 

"Bakit hindi ka nag-stay?"

 

Johnny : Bakit hindi ako nag stay? Kasi may bumalik. We were happy then, kung hindi niyo kami kilala noon, baka nga inisip niyong magkarelasyon kami. Kaso what I didn't realize was that what we had were only stolen moments, not long after I realized na gusto ko siya, bumalik yung ex niya. I know that person was trying to win him back while we're hanging out, nakikita ko na hindi niya yon pinapansin nung una. Pero ewan ko kung anong nangyari, naging okay yata sila. *chuckles*

 

Johnny : Nag-uusap sila habang magkausap kami, naisip ko 'Am I the other man? Does his ex know we're hanging out?' I felt guilty, so after contemplating for days, I told him na itigil na namin kung ano mang meron sa'min. Naaawa ako sa ex niya, pati na din sa sarili ko. And he just agreed. So yeah, I didn't stay because the one he's waiting for came back.

 

"Babalik ka pa ba kung pwede pa?"

 

Johnny : Probably.. no. A few months after that, narealize ko na infatuated lang pala ako. Sure, there are moments that I missed hanging out with him but it's all in the past now. Besides, some things are just meant to be left that way.

 

[ Johnny stood up and bowed after the interview, thanking the staffs before walking out of the studio then video closes. ]
