It has been a week since the incident happened and after visiting Leni at the condo, Risa did not see her again. She gave Leni the space that she needed to think things out that's why she did not attend any rallies for the whole week. She just sent Sinta or Luis to surrogate for her. Risa used it as an opportunity to go to places where survey says she is weak. Leni on the other hand kept herself busy with the campaigns. She wants to reconcile with Risa and Kit keeps telling her to give Risa a chance to talk to her and explain what really happened and how Risa and Jorge came to the point where they were about to kiss.
"Jorge, tapos ka na ba?" Leni asked her daughter
"I'm done ma!" Jorge said and went out of the room
Tricia and Jillian left early in the morning because they will have house-to-house campaigns in the province. Aika is left with Leni and she will have house-to-house in Caloocan.
"Nandoon po kaya si Mama Risa?" Jorge asked
Leni did not answer Jorge's question but instead, she opened the door and went out of the condo.
"Siguro nandoon siya bunso, bakit?" Aika told Jorge
"I miss her and Anje too. One week na kasing wala si Mama Ris sa rallies eh." Jorge replied
Aika looked at her mom before answering Jorge.
"Bunso, hindi naman sa lahat ng oras ay makakasama si Tita Sen sa rallies kasi meron siyang campaign plan. She's busy securing a senate seat for the opposition." Aika told her younger sister
"Okay. Pero alam mo, ate, iba ang tono ni mama kapag binabanggit niya pangalan ni Mama Ris sa rallies." Jorge told Aika
"What do you mean?" Aika asked
"She sounds sad when she says Mama Risa's name." Jorge replied
Aika went silent.
"Did something happened po ba noong birthday namin." Jorge asked
Upon hearing it, Leni turned to Aika and Jorge. Leni looked at Aika sternly as if she's telling her eldest daughter not to spill the tea.
"Jorge, let's go." Leni called Jorge
"Bye, Ate Aiks!" Jorge said and bid good bye to her eldest sister
"Bye Jorge. Bye ma." Aika bid her good byes to Leni and Jorge
"Ma, sana huwag mo na pong patagalin ito. Hindi maalala ni Jorge ang nangyari dahil lasing na lasing siya noon. If you can't talk to Tita Risa yet, atleast tell Jorge what happened para aware siya kung bakit ganyan ang ikinikilos mo. She's very observant, she can feel something is wrong." Aika told her mom before leaving
"I will, Aiks. Salamat. Ingat ka." Leni told her eldest daughter
Leni and Jorge arrived at Araneta Coliseum an hour and a half early. They immediately went inside the holding area.
"Senator Risa, good morning. VP Leni is waiting for you at the holding area." Leni's staff told Risa when she arrived a few minutes later
Risa went to the holding area and found Leni and Jorge sitting there. Upon seeing the two, she suddenly went undecided if she will approach them or not, especially Jorge.
"Good morning, Risa!" Leni greeted Risa
"Good morning, mama Risa." Jorge greeted her too
"Good morning Leni, good morning Jorge." she greeted them back
Leni walked towards Risa and embraced her. Though she was surprised, Risa hugged Leni back.
"Lord above, I missed Leni so much." Risa thought to herself
