Irene and greggy have returned home with their children from ilocos, before they went home they had a family bonding session ng hindi kinakausap o pinapansin ni irene si greggy.

Irene's job is still to take care of her cuppy cakes, while greggy is at work, pumasok siya ng trabaho ng hindi sila nag uusap ng asawa niya....they are still not okay.

Its already lunch time but greggy's still talking to mr. Abalos.

"Uhmm hello, mr. Araneta...i came here to say i need to back out in our deal, you know..may complications lang kase." mr. Abalos said, which greggy furrowed, their in greggy's office if y'all don't mind.

"W-wait mr. Abalos, baka naman pwede nating pagusapan yan and find a solution about it"

"I wish t-there was something i could do mr. Araneta, but i don't think i can do something about it i-its quite personal." mr. Abalos said but greggy's not convinced and now nervous. "Maybe in d-distribution..is there a problem about that?" greggy asked him, but mr. Abalos keep on shooking his head for a 'No'. "Hindi, there's no problem in that" mr. Abalos said.

"Sa pricing? Baka gusto niyo tapatin ko yung price na ino-offer sainyo ng ibang company?" greggy said, he really wanted to deal with mr. Abalos, but mr. Abalos have a personal problem kaya hindi siya matuloy.

"No, no ,no mr..araneta not at all, but i found that very generous pero hindi yon..I'm sorry but i cannot discuss the details...but i will get to assure you if i can fix this and sana maging ok pa rin tayo" mr. Abalos said he makes shake hands to greggy. "O-okay okay. . S-sige thank you" greggy said in defeat at umalis na ng opisina si mr. Abalos.

"Ohh godd gregorio! That's a big project and deal ehh what did you do!! Arghh!!" gregorio said to himself in annoyance at napahagod sa mukha niya.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

"Sir, excuse me po. . You do still have a visitors po." greggy's secretary said at pumasok kasabay ng bisita niya.

"Ohh mr. Araneta it's so nice meeting you again, long time no see huh?!" it's mr. Beltran her long lost college friend then.
"And here si Jessica my secretary, remember her?" mr. Beltran asked greggy which he nodded. "Good morning sir." Jessica said in seductive way, greggy immediately pulled his hand and smiled awkwardly.

Malandi.

"Have a sit, mr. Beltran." greggy said which they followed. "Mr. Araneta mukhang problemado tayo ah?" mr. Beltran said. " N-nah nothing, nagkaproblema lang sa isang client he backed out in our deal eh. .. but what are you doing here ba mr. Beltran?" greggy asked him.

"Excuse ho sir, si mr. Beltran ho kasi, he wants to talk to ma'am irene, since ang target market po nila is families, mommies alam niyo mga ganong bagay" greggy's secretary said.

"Sir id it's ok with you we'd like to visit your house, para po makapag kwentuhan tayo" jessica said in malandi way.

Haliparot na to, lagot ka kay irene.

"Kw-kwen...ano? Kwentuhan tayo?" greggy asked her nervously, ibang kwentuhan ang nasa isip niya.

"Exactly mr. Araneta, gusto sana naming makakuha ng insights straight from a house wife eh naisip ko naman, why not si irene nalang." mr. Beltran said.

"Ahhh, yun ba? Kelan niyo ba gustong a-ah p-pumunta?" greggy asked them nervously. Hindi niya alam kung anong gagawin niya since hindi pa rin sila ayos ni irene.

"Mamayang gabi, is it ok?" mr. Beltran asked greggy. "Ahh!???" greggy half shouted which make everyone startled. "i-i mean ahh oo, mamayang gabi ka agad? P-pwe bang a-" greggy said when Jessica cut him off.
