DOLCE AMORE Episode 37


We started with Serena telling Tenten that she heard a gecko in her room and she was out looking for someone to help her since she did not want it to disturb Angel. Tenten laughed at her but agreed to go and get the gecko out of the room.

When they arrived at Serena’s room, JJ kept making the gecko noises and Serena screamed as she hid below the covers. The raucous did not wake Angel who was deeply asleep. JJ continued to make the noises and when Tenten went to look at the window, he saw JJ. He kicked him and told him to go before Serena saw him. He went back into the room and told Serena that the gecko was gone. As he left, Serena stopped him again and admitted that she was afraid and only used Angel as an excuse. She said that she wished she was as brave as Tenten but Tenten said that he too was afraid was a lot of things. He added that it was not bad to have fear because it gave us a chance to be brave.
The noise woke Alice and Uge and they saw each other outside. In the morning, Serena was telling Angel about the gecko when they saw their parents walking out of the same room. Alice and Uge tried to talk themselves out of the embarrassing situation but they were not as successful.
Tenten talked to JJ about the stuff he had been doing and asked him to let Serena remember things naturally.
When everyone sat down to have breakfast, Serena asked JJ if it was possible for them to go to Bohol for the tour. Her grandmother asked why she wanted to go to Bohol and Serena said that she had seen the place while surfing on the net and wanted to go there. JJ who is the tour manager said that it would be fine.
Alice was worried about Serena wanting to go to Bohol so she asked Angel why Serena wanted to go there. Angel told her that Tenten told her about the time he spent with Serena in Bohol.
Alice talked to Tenten and thanked him for not telling Serena the truth. She said that she wanted to respect his relationship with Angel but he wanted Tenten to let them deal with Serena because they were her family. Tenten said that he respected Alice’s decision but he made it clear that if he ever saw that keeping the truth from Serena was hurting her, then he would tell Serena the truth personally.
Uge asked Serena why she wanted to go to Bohol and she told him that she remembered a place and when she looked it up, it was in Bohol. Uge wanted to rush over and tell Alice about it but Serena asked him not to because she did not want to disrupt their vacation with her problems.
Angel told her aunt about Serena’s past and that Alice did not want Serena to be told the truth. Her aunt said that Alice was being selfish because Serena needed to know the truth. Angel said that she wanted to trust her mother’s instincts because she knew what was best for Serena at the moment.
As they were moving to the next location, Tenten got a call from his family. They wanted to know how he was doing and as Tenten was on the phone, Uge and Serena interrupted him. Uge wanted to say hello so Tenten handed over the phone to him. Serena said she wanted to meet Tenten’s family too and they greeted her in Italian. Serena was surprised and asked how they knew Italian. Dodoy said that they used to have an Italian friend. Serena said that she wanted to meet them in person too. Binggoy mentioned Tenten and Serena asked who Tenten was. Tenten took the phone away, said good bye and hang up.
Serena asked Uge who Tenten was and he told her that it was Simon. Uge then asked Tenten how he got the nickname and he skeptically told them about his lisp and how he used to pronounce his name as Vitente. Serena told Tenten that her fiancé knew a person called Tenten and he said that Tenten was not a good person. Tenten said that he had a wrong impression and Uge chipped in saying that Tenten was a good guy.
When they went to the second tour location, Angel was singing along Tenten and Serena kept imagining that she was the one singing along with him as she watched them.
During dinner, Angel was feeding Tenten her food and Serena again imagined being the one feeding him. She got up and left the table saying that she needed to take her medicine. Alice followed her to her room and Serena said that she only had a panic attack. She was however upset because she kept having illusions about Tenten.
Alice was sad when she went to her room and she told Uge that it was her fault Serena was suffering. Uge asked him why she said that and Alice told him everything she had leant about Serena’s past. Uge told her that he was thankful because her faith and relentless search was the reason why they had found Serena (Monica) but it did not give them the right to be selfish. Alice said that she had wanted the four of them to be together for a long time and thought that Serena learning the truth would threaten the happiness that they were experiencing.
Tenten had a dream about Serena asking him why he did not tell her the truth. He was not able to sleep after so he walked out of the room with his guitar. He ran into Serena outside and both of them tried to hide how nervous they were. They talked about the song that Serena wanted Tenten to compose for her family and Tenten agreed to help her come up with the lyrics. That was where we ended…
