It started dramatically but concluded rather unexpectedly.
This is how Carlo Aquino's recent TikTok video played out.
In it, he showcased his girlfriend, actress Charlie Dizon, deep in thought by the shore.
In a voice-over Carlo intoned, "Dumadagundung ang damdamin kasabay ng hampas ng alon."
"Dumadagundung ang pag-asa para sa hinaharap," he added, juxtaposing images of Charlie and the wide, open sea.
"Dahil sa huli palaging may ngiti," Carlo remarked, as the clip showed Charlie approaching the camera.
It ended with: "May food trip kasi."
Charlie is then seen savoring a snack by the seaside.
Last July, Charlie officially introduced Carlo as her boyfriend after months of speculation.
Carlo was previously involved with model-vlogger Trina Candaza with whom he sired a girl.
