Mom:
Anak I'm sorry

I'm so sorry

Please talk to me?

I'm sorry for leaving you there, gusto kitang kunin para makasama but your dad won't allow me

Hindi muna titira si mommy diyan sa bahay for the time being ha?

We tried naman e, me and your dad pero wala na talaga

I just can't do it anymore, wala namang magbabago

Ako pa rin mommy mo and you have your dad too

We will support you, always

Talk to me pag kaya mo na please

Richard
12:01 AM

Richard:
Your dad's here

Mag-isa ka lang diyan?

Xochitl:
  Di ko alam na umalis siya

Richard:
They're drinking

I heard what they're talking about

I'm sorry I didn't mean to

And I know you're not okay

Been there

Xochitl:
I know this for some time now

I guess di ko rin mapipigilan

Baka hindi na kinaya ni mommy

Richard:
She's actually very brave

To put up with that for a long time

Si mommy sumuko agad

Maybe that's why we can't fix it anymore kahit na konti lang

Kahit maging civil lang

Kasi she didn't want to try to fix it

But your mom did

Your mom loves you, your dad too

Xochitl:
I know

But the love that they can give is not enough

And I think I already understand

You shouldn't force things that aren't meant to be

And the best thing to do is to accept, you have no choice afterall

Richard:
Yes there are things that aren't meant to be

But I don't think you understand the point here

Wdym by accepting?

Xochitl:
Yeah accept

Sa case nila dad

I suddenly just stopped praying for it to work out
