Where are you?
You're not answering our calls

Zeruah
just somewhere kuya
tell mama na lang na I'll be home late

Lachlan
Okay?
Did something happen to you?
I heard that your grades has now been distributed, how's yours?

Lachlan
I'm curious, zeruah

Zeruah
I'll let you know once I'm home

Lachlan
Then go home once you're done with your business, zeruah
Don't let us wait, sabihin mo lang kung uuwi ka o hindi

Lachlan
Mama and papa are so eager to know your grade so get home as possible as you can

Zeruah
I will, kuya
so stop looking for me

Azriel
You didn't attend the meeting after school
You ditch the class as well

Azriel
Zeruah
Are you okay?
Hey, zeruah
Seen

Zeruah
Hi, did you ever try your best, azi?

Azriel
What?
Did something happen to you?
Did I do something?

Zeruah
no
but did you ever try your best to acquire what you currently have right now?
just answer my question, azi

Azriel
You're weird but yeah, I do
What's wrong with you?
May nangyari ba?

Zeruah
then did you ever fail to get it?

Azriel
No, I haven't yet
Really, what is wrong?
You're making me nervous

Zeruah
you're lucky then HAHAHA
I wish I had your luck, damn

Zeruah
do you think I can still do anything about my failing grades, azi?
you know, that 81 I had in my card HAHAHAHA

Azriel
I don't know
But zeruah, you can still get another 9 for the next sem
You're doing great for the whole quarter, you just need to to do more

Zeruah
you don't get it, azi
I've been doing doing great for anything I can do with my own capabilities
isa pa, you never seek for any validation when it comes to your academics
pero iba ako eh, iba ako sayo

Zeruah
kasi I do, I really do
you know that I was always behind you, right?
President and Vice President
Top 1 and top 2

Azriel
Zeruah, what's wrong with you?
Tell me so that I can help, your confusing me

Zeruah
sige, sasabihin ko sayo
tutal sabog na ko, hindi ko na alam yung gagawin ko kasi takot nako
takot na ko baka mamaya kung ano na naman yung marinig ko sa pamilya ko, hindi kasi kayo ganon
you're family seems so carefree from mine, kaya mong kunin yung gusto mo pero hindi ko man lang pweseng sabihin kung anong gusto ko

Zeruah
nakalatag na sila azriel, tangina
isusubo ko na lang bawal pa magreklamo, for what? because I need to be grateful for the things they gave me
for the privilege I live and in order to pay them, I always seek for their approval

Zeruah
pero hindi ko magawa dahil sayo

Azriel
I never did anything wrong with you, zeruah
I don't know what's going on and I'm here not as your council's president nor a classmate but at least a friend
Anong ginawa ko sayo?

Zeruah
you're too good with everything, azriel

Azriel
But it's not my fault I am

Zeruah
iyo na nga eh, hindi mo kasalanan pero naiinis ako
naiinis ako kasi kahit anong gawin ko hindi kita matalo-talo, lagi akong nakasunod sa likod mo
you're like my brother, I always get compared with people who are good than me

Zeruah
is it my fault that I always lack something you both have? Is my fault that math is not my forte? That I prefer writing words, creating prompts or anything that I feel confident for
sabihin mo nga, is it?

Azriel
No, it will never be your fault
Look, this may look absurd but I get you

Zeruah
wag moko patawanin

Azriel
I'm not making a joke, zeruah
I totally get you because you resemble my ate cyrie
It's fine to feel insecure with the things you wanted to have, even I, that you thought are perfect also gets envy about something

Azriel
But zeruah, it's not over yet. If you think you don't deserve it, then do more to get what you actually deserve to have
Like my ate cyrie that my mom doubted with her passion in modeling, look at her going forward without certainty
No matter how much you work hard, you are meant to fall down. But in those fall you get, you get strong day by day

Azriel
Mama told me that this is just our senior years, college is much more difficult than we expected
Take over my place because I know you can do it, your 81 won't ruin you forever like you thought it would

Azriel
You're the only who can
I told you, you're my top 1
