So, here I go again trying to figure out the best opening for the next episode. ^_^
By the way, in case you are wondering what TTM stands for, it's an abbreviation I created for Talking To Myself. Because technically, this is what this post is all about. Me, talking to myself, with an audience. And the audience is you, my dear reader. Are you with me so far? I hope so. XD
Like I said last night, things are getting interesting and therefore, I need careful planning. XD. I know planning should begin right from the top but in my case, I only seriously plan when I am approaching the conflict part or when I am lost, which happens most of the time. :D
Otherwise, I just let the characters decide how the story will unfold. Hehe. I love surprises.
But this time, I need to set aside the element of surprise and focus on the conflict. It's a light romance novel and not so full of drama but still, I want to put the elements of romance on all the right places to achieve my purpose.
So, the biggest question is, how will I open the next episode? What is the best scene? My last update was about Damon and Marga already on the plane bound for Davao. The last episode ended when Damon kissed Marga and Marga finally convinced herself she had fallen in love, albeit she had fallen alone.
There are several options I want to consider:
1. Ihahatid ni Damon si Marga sa bahay ng mga ito. Maaabutan nila si Michael at ang Papa nila. Both men were looking at Damon murderously. Pinagbintangan nila si Margarette na nakikipaglandian kay Damon. Michael would punch Damon.
2. Matiwasay na naihatid ni Damon si Marga. Wala siyang naabutan sa bahay nila maliban sa katulong. Nag-out of town daw ang Papa nila at si Michael naman ay pumasok na sa trabaho nito.
3. Damon's POV as originally planned. Mention na lang ang paghatid niya kay Marga and his feelings about leaving her alone to fend for herself in front of her family. But she convinced him he had nothing to worry about. They also exchanged numbers para kapag may problema ito o kung ano pa man, she can easily get in touch with him.
Okay. The third one seems promising. Masyado kasing dragging ang magiging scenes if I go with either the first or second option. :)
At least I can now proceed with the next episode.
Thanks for joining me. This is how I do solo deliberation. :)
Ciao!
