DOLCE AMORE Episode 49


We started with Serena telling Angel how obsessive Tenten was about picking her up and Angel asked her to let him do it because he only wanted to be a perfect boyfriend.
Serena told Angel that Tenten was not her boyfriend and they had not yet labeled their relationship. Angel told her that it was dangerous for her since she might end up building up hope and things what were not there so she asked Serena to label their relationship. Serena told Angel that the status of her relationship with Tenten was destiny!
In the morning, Tenten woke everyone up because he was super jovial and after breakfast, they all went to the farm where they had planned to meet with Serena. Serena asked to speak to Binggoy and told him that she had talked to Angel and learnt what has happened when their families had dinner. Binggoy told Serena that his apology was due and it was true that it was possible for people who had done something wrong to change. Serena told him that everything was now fine between them.
Gian Carlo woke up in his hotel room drunk and when the girl he slept with approached him, he choked her and told her that she was not Serena. The girl ran off and got some goons to beat up Gian Carlo for hurting her.
Back at the farm, Tenten told Serena that he wanted to take her out; only the two of them so that they could have some alone time. He added that it was a place where fireflies mated. Serena was a bit alarmed so she called Angel and asked her what she thought Tenten meant. Angel told Serena that maybe Tenten wanted to get a permanent place in Serena’s life so maybe he was going to propose to her. Serena however hoped that it was not the case.
When Tenten left with Serena in the evening he asked everyone to stay behind so that the two of them could have some alone time; even her body guards.
Tenten changed in the car as Serena watched him and it was very awkward. He later drove her to a farm where the fireflies were supposed to mate and he told her that the place held special memories for them and he wanted to give her something that could help cement their relationship. He reached for something in his pocket and it fell on the ground so Tenten dropped on his knees to look for it. Serena’s eyes widened and she dropped to her knees as well. She told Tenten that he did not have to keep looking for the ring because her answer was a yes! Tenten did not know what she was saying yes to and Serena filled in by saying that she would marry him because she loved him. Tenten helped her up and hugged her with a worried smile on his face.
Gian Carlo’s uncle went to look for him in the Philippines and managed to find him locked up in jail after a long and violent search.
After Tenten went home, he explained to his family how he had ended up getting engaged to Serena. They advised him to tell Serena that it had all been a misunderstanding. Serena also told Angel and their parents about the engagement and they told her to call Tenten and call it off.
Tenten called Serena just as she was about to call him and he explained to her that he was only going to give her a key and not a ring. Serena laughed because she was so relieved. She explained to Tenten that her life was complicated at the moment and she did not want to get into another engagement before she sorted herself out. She also asked that they take things a little at a time and told Tenten to take her out on a date. Tenten understood but Serena’s explanation left him upset. He told Taps and Binggoy that Serena got engaged to Gian Carlo so easily, but with him, it was complicated.
Tenten went to pick Serena up and she told Roger and Leo to stay behind since she wanted to have privacy with Tenten. They left after a little drama with Uge who told her that she should ask for his permission first before going out.
In the car, Serena tried to brighten the mood and joke around but Tenten was not amused. They decided to  go out to the movies but when they got there, the only seats available were not together. Serena told Tenten that they should watch the next movie instead but Tenten said that they would not have enough time for dinner so he took the tickets. They ended up sitting almost 5 seats apart and Tenten did not seem to mind because he laughed throughout the movie. Serena did not enjoy herself as much.
When the movie ended and they went to eat, Tenten could not be bothered to converse with Serena. Serena finally got upset and left the table. Tenten followed her and asked where she was going. Serena asked Tenten why he had been quiet all day because she was tired of guessing. She added that if he was tired of her company, all he had to do was say it. Tenten finally came clean and said that he had been sulking because Serena had denied his accidental proposal so easily. Serena laughed it off but she decided to make it up to Tenten.
Serena took Tenten to see the judge working on her citizenship and told him that she wanted to marry Tenten. That was where we ended…
