Neve: Lorenzo... Natatakot ako. Anong sabi ng pamilya mo? Nagkausap na ba kayo? Saka... naisip ko lang... Ang tindi ng bash sa 'kin :( Paano kung masira yung film namin dahil dito? Mas maayos ba kung umamin na lang tayo o itanggi natin para mabawasan yung magiging backlash?
Lorenzo: It won't come to that, baby. I promise I won't let it It's going to die down soon so our best option is to ride it out for now I'm sorry How can I make you feel better?
Neve: 😭😭 Nakausap mo na ba ang daddy mo?
Lorenzo: We talked last night
Neve: Tapos? 😥
Lorenzo: I confirmed the rumors and told them we're together, that's all
Neve: Them? Sinong them? 😭
Lorenzo: The elders in my family. I meant my grandparents, love
Neve: Tapos? Anong sabi nila? Paghihiwalayin daw ba tayo? Bibigyan na ba nila ako ng sobre? 😭
Lorenzo: No, nothing like that And why do you think they'd give you that?
Neve: Gano'n kasi sa palabas e. Ino-offer-an ng pera para hiwalayan yung anak 😓
Lorenzo: Oh Neve I won't let it get to that point If they want to keep me, they will respect you. That was our agreement Trust me?
Neve: Sigurado ka bang okay sa kanila? Sure? Baka kasi tinatago mo lang sa 'kin yung totoong sinabi nila... or 'di kaya inaway mo sila?
Lorenzo: Actually Abuela's fine with us and she's asking to see you But I already said no Nothing will happen, alright? What you're dreading won't happen I'm not leaving you and I won't let them take you away from me either
Neve: 🥺🥺🥺 'Di ba sila galit sa 'yo? Iba kasi yung nananahimik lang sa totoong tanggap. Gusto ko sanang matanggap nila ako. Paano ba sa tingin mo? Paano ko kaya mahuhuli ang amor nila? 😓
Lorenzo: Hey... Focus only on us You have too much on your plate now. My parents should be the last thing on your mind now
Neve: Parents mo 'yon e. Family mo. Sila ang pinakaimportante.
Lorenzo: You're more important to me... Let's ride this one out together Alright?
Neve: Lorenzo... Natatakot pa rin ako 😭
Lorenzo: Where are you?
Neve: Dito sa kwarto.
Lorenzo: I'll call you
Neve: Oki... 😭
