Anthony, matagal pinagdasal si Shuvee

Ilang buwan nang nililigawan ni Anthony Constantino si Shuvee Etrata.

Talagang ramdam umano ng dating Pinoy Big Brother housemate ang pag-aalaga sa kanya ng baguhang aktor.

“I feel so good, Tito Boy. Sobrang nasa magandang chapter ako ng buhay ko. It’s both ways, siguro hindi naman siya magtatagal kung hindi ko siya ina-assure. May patutunguhan naman (ang panliligaw niya), kailangan ko lang ng time,” nakangiting bungad sa amin ni Shuvee sa Fast Talk with Boy Abunda.

Sa social media unang nagkakilala ang dalawa. Nagandahan daw si Anthony noong una pa lamang na makita ang dalaga. “When I followed her on social media, I feel like Shuvee is so beautiful. I couldn’t pass on how beautiful she is on the inside. But you know how Shuvee is. Everybody has seen her in PBB or social media. Her personality really pulled me in, fully,” pagtatapat ni Anthony.

“Ako kasi ang unang nagka-crush, Tito Boy. Ni-repost ko lahat ng video niya. Siya ‘yung unang nag-message. No’ng nag-message siya, ‘Hi! Ganda!’ ‘Hi! Pogi!’ Until we saw each other. No’ng nagkita kami, Tito Boy, do’n ko na-clear ‘yung boundaries ko. I’m not into playing. Hindi ako pangmadalian lang din. I wanna be valued and at the same time I value courtship. First day pa lang sinabi ko na siyam (kaming magkakapatid), may walo pa akong kapatid na responsibilidad. So, if you’re willing to wait, then you can wait,” nakangiting kwento naman ni Shuvee.

Nakilala na nang personal ng aktres ang pamilya ni Anthony na nakabase sa Amerika. Nakilala na rin ng binata ang pamilya ni Shuvee na sa Cebu naman naninirahan. “I’ve met his family no’ng pumunta po ako ng L.A. The first time I’ve met her mom, she gave me a Bible. Her mom is really, really nice. Even grandma, they’re all so nice. They get kilig to know na Anthony learned to make ligaw. Especially his roots is Filipino, and he never learned it sa U.S. I told them na this is really my values, principles. I’m happy to share that Anthony is adjusting well in the Philippines,” pagbabahagi ng Kapuso actress.

“I’ve experienced, visiting Bantayan Island for the first time was like, I’ve been learning how to court. So Shuvee has pulled me how the previous guy who’ve courted her, what they’ve done. When she told me that, courting could look like going inside my home and cleaning my house for me. That’s something I have never done before. The house I’ve seen of Shuvee I’ve cleaned. I think there’s modern courting. I think I gave my own twist of courting,” kwento naman ni Anthony.

Para sa binata ay talagang nakita niyang si Shuvee na ang kanyang makakasama sa habambuhay. Matagal na umanong ipinagdasal ni Anthony na makilala ang babaeng kanyang tunay na mamahalin. “I’m willing to wait kasi Shuvee is someone I’ve been praying for. When I first met Shuvee, I knew that’s someone I’ve prayed for. A woman that I really value. I’ve honestly never met a woman like Shuvee before. I don ‘t want to invest my time into the wrong woman. So, the fact that I’m still here, shows the direction that I’m going in. If I’ve left one week ago, I would tell you, this is not the woman that I need in my life. So, if ever there’s a time that I think Shuvee is not the right one for me, of course I will go, no matter the reason. But I’m still here, and I’ve been here for the past year,” paliwanag ng modelo at aktor. — Reports from JCC
