“Before the tears. We asked each other how we wanted to do the scene. 'Are we gonna cry?' I jokingly asked. We had been crying all day already and this scene that we had to shoot at sunset would’ve been our break from all the other crying scenes for the rest of the day. 'I already shot the scene leading up to this… I cried a lot there,' Shaina replied. We laughed and agreed we wouldn’t cry,” Bela recalled their conversation.

“Direk Law told us there would be a drone shot and solo shots for me and Shaina, as well as a master a mid shot of the two of us. So our plan to not cry was perfect since we’d have to do the scene over and over,” she shared.

However, as the camera started rolling and their settings were seemingly in sync with the mood of their scene, the two actresses couldn’t help but give a deep and strong performance as sisters on the show, making the scene more sincere.

“As soon as direk Law and direk Rico shouted action, and we locked eyes, I knew that my resolve to not cry was thrown out the window. It’s so rare to find a scene partner that is so in sync with you that you can’t help but feel exactly what they’re feeling. For actors, this is us at our happiest state. It’s a euphoric feeling. So much so that everyone felt it too after and we were all smiling from ear to ear right after the scene,” Bela expressed.

Another viewer shared, “Very nice story telling. I felt every detail as if I was there. From the warmth of the sun, that blinding brightness when you looked ahead. As if I was there in front of you watching each other's eyes slowly swelling up when you're about to cry which you tried to deny. Such a gifted writer. Such gifted and beautiful actors ❤️❤️❤️.”
