Manila, Philippines

     The plane where Vince and Halley boarded safely landed at NAIA, Vince quickly grabbed their luggage and waited for their service that didn't take long to arrived.

     "Welcome back to Manila!" Andrei said loudly which caught both of Vince and Halley's attention.

     "Ninong!" Halley returned his embrace with a smile

     "Ninong!" Halley returned his embrace with a smile. "Where's ninang Lei?"

     "Still on her work, gusto nga din niyang sumama mag sundo sa inyo kaso wala siyang vacant time."

     "Andrei, pare, it's nice to see you again." Vince reached him as they exchanged tapping on each other's shoulders.

     "Ano 'san tayo? Want to eat dinner first or hatid ko na kayo kayla Audrey?" Andrei asked them.

     "Dinner. I'll sleep in the van po, I feel jet lag." Halley immediately hopped inside so she can take a rest again.

     "Hindi alam ni Audrey na uuwi kayo ngayon noh? Otherwise, she would have been the one who will fetch you here." Andrei said laughing.

     "Halley wants to surprise her, tagal din kasi naming hindi bumalik dito."

     "Oo nga eh, namiss namin kayo." Andrei started the car then hit the road. "Guapo mo dun sa post ni Halley kanina ah."

     "Naman, ako pa ba!"

     "Ilan girlfriend?"

     "Loko!"

     "Yung mga pormahang ganun mo, Goma. We know it, ilan ba yang sinasabay-sabay mo?"

     "Loko ka talaga pare." Vince looked behind them and fortunately, Halley had fallen asleep already and didn't hear their conversation.

     "But seriously pare? Wala ba?"

     "Girlfriend? Wala."

     "Siya padin ba?"

     Vince knew what his friend meant to asked but he remained silent and just looked at him, waiting for his next words.

     "Ano, siya padin nga?"

     "Sira ba ulo mo?"

     "Eh bakit tumahimik ka? Why did it take you a while to answer? Napaisip?"

     "Because you don't have to ask, alam mo na ang sagot ko." Vince heaved a sigh before looking at the roads.

"Wow. Until now? Pare it's been years."

"Sira na talaga ang ulo mo." He shrugged off and sighed with a different mood already. "Kapag niloko ka, obviously hindi na diba."

"Binibiro lang kita, alam ko namang hindi na eh. Ang seryoso mo masyado."
