I was outside the room of Dr. Lopez and Dr. Aquino waiting for coverage. I was busy thinking about random things when suddenly I heard a distinctly low voice that immediately stimulated my senses. I knew right then and there that it’s the voice of a celebrity. It’s Dolphy. I was star struck! I didn’t know what to do should I talk to him? Should I ask for his autograph? Should I take a picture with him? It’s not everyday that you meet an Icon like dolphy you know.
A co-medrep sat beside me and I told him about my dilemma. He insists on me having a picture taken with Dolphy. It took me roughly 10 minutes to gather myself and have the guts to approach Dolphy.
Audrey: Hi po. Pde po
pa-picture?
Dolphy: Sige sige.
Male medrep: (sitting beside dolphy) Ako na kukuha ng picture nyo.
Audrey: Thanks.
Click!
Audrey: Thanks!
I wanted to stay beside dolphy so I had to say something.
Audrey: Tito Dolphy ang cute naman ng shirt mo. Color pink! (It was a fuschia or hot pink Lacoste polo shirt and he was wearing nike shoes)
Dolphy: Pink ba to? Diba red to?
Audrey: Di kaya! (Feeling close! Haha!)
Dolphy: Ah ganun ba?
Audrey: Tito dolphy papicture ulet.
This time, I was the one who took the picture. I used my right hand and directed the picture from a high angle.
CLICK!
Dolphy: (looks at picture) Isa pa. Tapyas ka jan e.
Audrey: Sige po, isa pa.
Click!
Dolphy: Ayan!
Audrey: Thank you po ulet. You know I like Fasifika Falayfay.
Dolphy: Ah Fasifika. Chuckles. Salamat.
Audrey: Trying to make an exit. Sige po Tito Dolphy. Thanks ulit. See you po again. Bye.
And walks away….
Ahahahahahha!
