William Vincent Marcos a single father, who was left to take care of his son after his ex wife left him to pursue her career.
When Vinny returns to his hometown, what happens when he runs into his childhood friend once more...
In 45 minutes, we arrived at Saud beach, and I grinned at the beauty. Vinny turned off the engine and exited the vehicle; he jogged towards the passenger seat and opened the door for me; his hand was on the air; I accepted it and exited the vehicle.
As I breath the sea breeze, I close my eyes. When Vinny squeezed my hands, I opened my eyes and flushed. We both continued strolling towards the sea, and I noticed a striped blanket on the sand and some delicacies, so I asked Vinny.
" I hope you like the foods I've prepared.." He remarked with a smile as he helped me sit in the blanket, and my eyes widened as I looked at the delicacies laid in the blanket.

" Wow..... You make all of this by yourself? " I asked, amused, and he chuckled and shook his head. " Me and Kuya Sandro both did these variety of sushi's and the pizza Kuya Simon bought as well as this....... " He continued, pausing as he took the foreign dessert.
" I'm not sure what this is, but it looks like macaroons. " he added as he set the dessert down and looked at me. I smiled at him.
" Thanks for this, Vinny... " I muttered, as he reddened and averted his gaze. " Uhm y-yeah.., let's e-eat na......Here's your chopsticks, p-pala. " He fumbled and handed me the chopsticks.
" Thank you. " I murmured as I nibbled the chopsticks and considered which sushi to try. I took the one with the fish on top.
" Here's a coke and some water. " Vinny remarked, opening the can of coke for me. I bowed and covered my mouth. I closed my eyes and savored the flavor as well as the sea breeze.
" Vinny, may I ask you a question? I hope it's okay with you..." I asked as I gulped the food and wiped my mouth. He nodded as he chewed the meal in his mouth." How was it being a father to Liam?? " I inquired. He paused and wiped his mouth, then looked at me and smiled.
" To be honest with you..... It's difficult to be a father at such a young age... I still vividly remember what happened that day. " he remarked, staring out at the water. " We were both 19 at the time, starting our own careers, but I got her pregnant." He paused and resumed.
" We both went to the doctor a month later, and when she said she was dizzy and puking, she revealed she was pregnant, but our reactions were opposite. " He smiled, and I saw his eyes shining in tears, so I put my hand on top of his and squeezed it.
" She didn't want to keep the baby, and I wanted her to keep it, and we had a big argument about it, so I called my brother, Simon. He was shocked at first, but he gave me all of his support until today. " he added, taking a shaky breath.
" Whenever me and my girlfriend fought, I call my brother and cried to him during our call. It was hard for me, s-she tried to kill my baby....... " He said and I gasped in shocked.
" Whenever me and my girlfriend fought, I called my brother and cried to him during our call; it was difficult for me because she tried to kill my baby......" he continued, and I gasped in surprise.
" What? How can she do that? " I said, and he shrugged. " I don't know what was going through her mind that day, but I know our baby destroyed her dreams as we argued; did you know I didn't tell my older brother or my parents. Kay kuya Simon ko lang kasi nasabi lahat ang nangyare sakin eh.. "
" I remembered how Kuya Simon flew immediately to Singapore when I told him that my girlfriend was about to give birth to my son... He would sometimes come to Singapore and tell my parents that he was on a trip or taking a break... " He paused, his shoulders shaking. I stroked his back.
" I'm sorry I asked. It must have been difficult for you.... " I replied, and he smiled at me. " No, it's okay.... It's actually great to share it, but the pain is still there. Sorry for crying.. it's so embarrassing... " He laughed and dried his eyes.
" Don't apologize... It's okay to not be okay, Vinny.... You have done an excellent job of being a great father to your son, a brother to your siblings, and a loving son to your parents... " I remarked, and he smiled. " Uhmm... We should probably stop this drama now. Sorry.... It's really so embarrassing of me to cry in front of you... " He muttered, and I grabbed my handkerchief and wiped his tears away as he glanced at my eyes.
" T-thank you... " He muttered as he wiped his eyes, and I bit my lip and sipped my can of soda.
