La Douleur Exquise is a rollercoaster of a family drama, mostly from the eyes of the rose among the thorns, the unica hija of Ms. Imee Marcos, and watch as she goes through the struggles and challenges of her life as a member of a prominent family.

Rodrigo accompanied Imee to the bed until she fell asleep. But hindi siya makontento na pahiga-higa lang knowing that he's about to waste another moment with his "daughter". Kaya, dahan dahan siyang tumayo sa kama, at binuksan ang kaniyang laptop.

"Rodrigo, mahal?" a half asleep Imee arrived, which made Rodrigo shocked and close the laptop immediately.
"What are you doing here? Why are you still up? What time is it na ba? Alam mo ba, there are ghost na gumagala here sa Malacanang late at night!" Imee sermons as she sat beside her husband.
"Di ako makatulog eh.. may t-tinatapos lang.." he stuttered.
"Ikaw, bat ka ba gising?" Rodrigo asked as he made akbay with Imee.
"Wala ka na sa katabi ko, kaya tinabihan na ako ng bestie kong white lady galing sa balete tree.. Bwakanangshet na yun!" she joked.
"And, I'm nagugutom.." she mumbled.
"Oh sige, magluto tayo sa kusina.." Rodrigo suggested and stood up before Imee.
"Nooo, hindii, I can't be seen by the staff sa kusina.. di nga nila alam magkatabi tayo eh!" she replied and crossed her arms.
"Paano ka nakarating dito, aber?" he rebuts.
"I ran my way here. Your wife is cool kaya.." she replied.
"I know that. Alright! Kukunan na kita ng pagkain, ano ba gusto mo?" Rodrigo asked.
"Gusto ko ng.. french toast, with.. sliced pineapples and coffee crumble na ice cream.." she replied.
"Ha? San naman ako maghahanap niyan?" Rodrigo shockingly asked.
"Basta hanapan mo'ko Rodrigo! You may be the president of the country but you're also my husband, slash, butler.." she teasingly said. Ouch pinakasalan upang gawing sunod sunuran.. 😭😭
"Fine, sige na nga.." Rodrigo finally caved in.
"Dito ka lang?" he asked.
"Nope, babalik ako sa kabilang kwarto. Kakatakot naman dito.." she replied.
"Okay tara, sabay na tayo lumabas.." he replied.
"Okay.." she replied and held his hands, by the time they reached the door, she rushed towards the room and gave Rodrigo, who was dumbfounded, a flying kiss.
Napakamot nalang ang presidente sa ulo niya and proceeded to go to the kitchen.
"Apples nalang? Walang pinya dito, at mas lalong walang coffee crumble na ice cream.." Rodrigo asked over the phone.
