Thank you, Aria.

Hi, Ishi. Para saan?

For letting them talk to me.
Sabi nila Aki, ikaw daw nagsabi na kausapin ako.

Ahh, yun ba? Wala yun.
I just realized na maybe natakot ka
to step forward because of what happened.
That maybe you need a friend.

Thank you talaga, sobra.
The guys are planning help me
talk to my parents and possibly file a case against Arlo. Sabi naman ni Aki, he's willing to testify against Arlo. Lalo na nung naabutan niya one time na sinaktan ako ni Arlo.

That's good.

Ishi, I hope di mo masamain itong sasabihin ko.
I know this may come off as rude and pakialamera,
pero sana wag mo nang gamitin si Aki
to make you feel good about yourself.

Alam ko ikaw yung biktima rito and it pains me na kapwa ko babae yung nakaranas ng ganyan.

Pero you have to wake up din sa fact na you're dragging Aki, too.

What do you mean?

Stop using the 'Aki likes me' and 'Aki is my best friend' card to make him do things as you please.

Tigilan mo na, please. Di lang yun nagsasabi, pero nasasaktan din yun.

I'm not telling you this dahil gusto ko nang maputol ugnayan niyo ni Aki. I'm not doing this dahil ako na yung someone ni Aki.

I'm doing this because I don't want him to get hurt anymore, lalo na pagdating sa'yo.

Akio put you on a pedestal. He put you so high up, na kahit ano yata gawin mo di yun papalag kahit may red flags na.

Ganun ka sa kanya. I hope you realize that.

You can genuinely ask him for help without the pretense of wanting to be with him.

Maging honest ka na lang sa kanya. Wag na yung paligoy-ligoy pa. Kasi para mo siyang pinapaasa sa wala.

Also, I am humbly asking you to respect your limitations as his friend. Know your boundaries.

Iba na kasi ngayon. Hindi na pwede yung isang tawag mo lang, magkukumahog siya papunta sa'yo.

Kung kaibigan lang talaga, then please act like one.
Don't give him mixed signals. Don't lead him on.

I'm sorry. Hindi ko alam.
Si Aki lang kasi yung kaya kong lapitan na alam kong di ako huhusgahan.

Di ko naman ipagkakait sa'yo si Aki, Ishi.
Saka tutulungan ka pa rin naman niya.

Lahat kami tutulungan ka, pero please, wag naman to the extent na sasabihin mong siya yung tatay ng pinagbubuntis mo. Don't make false stories and accusations.

Aki has his own life to live. He's not your puppet.
