(Jassy's POV)
SATURDAY 5:00 PM
Habang nandito kaming masayang nagkukwentuhan at nakatitig sa sunset, may tumawag pa ba naman kay dad. Well hindi naman na yun bago. Magugulat ka nalang talaga pag may isang buong araw na walang tatatawag sa kanya.
(Jessie's POV)
***ON CALL***
Jessie: Good afternoon pa.
John: Good afternoon anak, nakabalik ka na pala.
Jessie: Yes pa, kaninang umaga lang.
John: Come to my house for dinner. No excuses. Isang buwan na naming hindi nakikita si Jasmine.
Jessie: Okay pa. We'll be there by 7.
***END CALL***
Jassy: Sinong. tumawag dad?

MASION 7:07 PM
(Jessie's POV)
Nandito na kami sa labas ng mansion at natural alam ko na kung anong aasahan. Lecture ni papa. Pinagbuksan kami ng mga maids ng pintuan at sinabing naghihintay na sila papa sa dining room. Pumunta na kami ni Jasmine sa dining room at wala namang ibang tao na naka upos kundi sina mama at papa.
Hinalikan sila ni Jasmine sa pisngi at umupo sa tabi ni mama. Umupo naman ako sa kanang bahagi ni papa.
John: Buti naman napaaga dating mo.
Jessie: Wala naman na akong gagawin dun. And besides, it's been a month since I haven't seen my daughter.
Nagdasal na kami at nagsimulang kumain.
John: By the way apo, when will be your next quiz bee? I heard you won the last time.
Jassy: I did lolo. My next quiz bee will be on tuesday. It's for nationals.
John: That's good. How about you Jessie? What did you talk about for 1 MONTH while in Cebu?
He said emphasizing the word MONTH.
Jessie: It was good dad. It's nothing rather than the usual, betterment of our region and the nation.
I said habang sinusubo ung crab.
John: Are you okay leaving your daughter for a month while you are out there talking about the betterment of the nation, when you can't even make my granddaughter's life better than before?!!!
Jasmine: Lolo, it's okay lang naman pong...
Hindi na pinatuloy ni papa ang sasabihin ni Jasmine.
John: Jassy, huwag mong kampihan ang dad mo.
Tumingin na siya saakin.
John: Jessie, ilang beses ko pa ba kailangang sabihin sayo na palitan mo na ako sa posisyon ko? Naaawa na ako kay Jassy na laging naiiwan sa bahay ninyo. Kapag ikaw naging CEO ng kumpanya, hawak mo ang oras. Look, now that you are in congress, you take part in people's problems. Bakit ka nakikiproblema sa problema ng iba? Jessie, walang ibang magmamana sa kumpanya kundi ikaw. I don't want to hand over the company to your cousin. Jessie, consider this this time.
Jessie: I will take over the company dad, just not at this moment.
Helen: Talaga bang sa harap ng hapagkainan kayo gagawa ng teleserye?
Tumahimik na kaming dalawa ni papa.
Pagkatapos naming kumain, sinabi ni papa na kahit dito nalang kami matulog. Hinatid ko si Jassy sa room niya siguro naman makakatulog maya-maya. Bumaba ako sa sala at akmang nandun din si papa. Kapag tadhana nga naman.
John: Sit.
Wala naman akong ibang choice kundi sumunod.
John: May balita ka ba sakanya?
