DOLCE AMORE Episode 40


We started with Tenten’s family telling Serena that they only knew Sir Roberto by name.

Angel was feeling sad because she missed Tenten and when she went through her phone. To look at his pictures,  she saw a picture of Serena and Tenten together on Instagram. Alice was preparing food for Serena before she arrived but Angel told her that Serena was not going to visit them since she was with Tenten.
After eating, Serena told Tenten that she wanted to speak with him. They went to speak in private and Serena told Tenten that she had heard Tenten and Angel mention her name when they were arguing. She added that since the time Tenten had helped her compose her song, she had been having dreams about him. She said that she even had a dream of Tenten posing like Michael Angelo with a flower in his mouth and Tenten smiled. She asked him not to laugh adding that she felt as if they knew each other from before and felt a familiarity being with him and his family. She even said that being with him felt like home to her. Before Tenten could answer her, his phone rang. It was Uge calling him but Tenten did not answer it. Serena  decided to apologize to Tenten for assuming and let him answer his phone when it rang again.
 Uge asked Tenten if Serena was with him. Tenten said that she was and Uge asked him what Serena wanted. Tenten told him that Serena wanted to ask him about her past but told Uge not to worry since he had not told Serena anything. Uge said that they were still waiting for Luciana’s reply and Tenten asked Uge to talk to Luciana soon before he was forced to tell Serena the truth.  he would have to tell Serena the truth.
Serena went to the hut and asked where Binggoy went. Dodoy told her that he left because he had an audition. Serena decided that it was time to leave after talking to Tenten and was saying goodbye to his family when Tenten returned to the hut. He told his parents that they should leave too before it got dark but when they got into the Jeepney , it did not start.  Tenten  said that he had to get back to Manila  and Serena asked if she could go with him in his car, together with her bodyguards.
Meanwhile, Alice and Uge decided that it was best if they told Serena the truth once she went back home so they tried to call Luciana again to let her know but Luciana hang up the phone once she heard that Alice was trying to reach her. Uge told Alice that Luciana should not blame them for telling Serena the truth because they had tried to reach her.
Roberto had a relapse at the hospital and Luciana was distraught. Gian Carlo went to see her and told her that maybe it was time that they let him go and stop prolonging his suffering.
Gian Carlo got a call from the bank telling him that there was an unusual behavior from Serena’s credit cards; they reflected that Serena’s transactions were coming from Manila and not from San Francisco. Gian Carlo followed things up and realized that Serena was actually in Manila. He tried to call Serena but she did not answer. He went and told Luciana that Serena was in the Philippines.
JJ who was driving Tenten’s car followed an app as they drove from the farm but he ended uo getting them lost. The car hit a pot hole and they ended up getting stranded.JJ went with Serena’s guards to look for help while Serena and Tenten stayed back to look after the car.
As they waited, Serena put on some music for them to listen. She panicked when “Your Love” came on and Tenten had to help her calm down. After Serena was calmer, she asked Tenten to tell her the truth; whether he had broken up with Angel because of her. Tenten told her that he had broken up with Angel because he loved someone else.
Serena ran away from Tenten and he went after her but she suddenly stopped when she ran into a swarm of fireflies. Tenten walked  behind her and told her about the legend of the fireflies. He said; quoting; “Fireflies are like fairies and when you catch one when the moon is full, all of your wishes will be granted.” Serena was surprised that Tenten knew the firefly legend and Tenten went ahead and caught one. He turned to Serena and told her that he wanted to grant a wish for her. Serena said that all she wanted was to know the truth.  Tenten let the firefly go and told Serena that he loved her. He added that Angel and he broke up because of her; because he loved her, he still loved her!
JJ and Serena’s guard got back to the farm with gasoline for the Jeep and they went retuned to get Serena and Tenten together with Taps, Dodoy and the rest.

 Serena was upset because they were betraying Angel and started lashing out at Tenten, telling him to stop telling her that he loved her.  Tenten held Serena so that she stopped hitting him and kept insisting on telling her that he had never stopped loving her. He then started singing the song they composed together and asked her to listen to the words so that she could realize that she knew the song.  Serena wanted Tenten to stop singing but she soon realized that the song sounded familiar. She asked Tenten to tell her who  he really was and Tenten told her that he is her Timon. He added that the two of them were together two years ago and we ended as Serena watched him while crying…
