Bea agreed to meet with Maddie at the hospital para sa prenatal checkup nito. Napaaga si Bea kaya she decided to wait sa patient lounge but she saw Anton kaya sinundan nya ito.

She found him na nakikipagusap sa Doctor, hindi nya masyado marining dahil sa layo ng distansya nya.

Before she went home, dumaan sya sa apartment ni Anton. She knocked multiple times pero wala sumagot sa kanya, she decided to leave.

On her way out, nakasalubong nya si Anton.

"Kamusta ka?" Bea asked.

"Bakit ka andito?"

"I just wanted to check on you, hindi ka kasi pumasok kanina. Hindi ka din sumasagot sa tawag and messages ko. Nagiwan ako ng note sa pinto mo pero I never heard from you. Nakita kita sa hospital kanina, may sakit ka ba?"

Anton shooked his head.

"Why are you suddenly interested in me." Anton asked her.

"Don't get me wrong." Bea said.

"Halika pumasok ka muna." Anton said as he invited her in.

Bago pa sila makapasok sa loob, Bea's phone rang. It was Thirdy. He was going to be late kaya dadalhin muna ni Ivan si Aston sa kanya.

"Perfect timing talaga si Thirdy pag tumatawag, noh. Sige na, puntahan mo na sya."


Thirdy visited her mother. As always, nauwi lang sa away. Mozzy has been telling Thirdy about how Bea is not fit for their family and si Thirdy naman sinusumbat na hindi na nagpakasal sa iba and waited for his father to love her.


Pagdating nya sa unit nya, tulog na si Bea sa kama nya, but was awakened nun maramdaman nya si Thirdy.

"Kumain ka na?" Bea asked.

Thirdy just hugged her.

"Nakatulog na si Aston kakatanong what time you will be coming back. You look so tired."

Thirdy sat down at the edge of the bed, pinaupo nya si Bea sa hita nya.

"If one day, hindi na ako bumalik, will you still wait for me?" Thirdy asked her.

"Yes." She said as she nodded.

Thirdy stared at her.

"Bea, do you love me?"

She nodded.


The following morning she woke up looking for Thirdy.

No one answered.

When she reached the dining area, the table was full of flowers, something was covered. She went near it and found baby breaths and cherry tomatoes spelled love.

Bea took the ring.

Then a recording played.

"Bea, did you like the breakfast I made for you? Nung dinala kita sa Marriage registration office alam ko I should have said something. Alam ko you don't need or want a rich life or the title as my wife. You want a man who really cares about you,  respects you and loves you equally, and promises to love only you and grow old with you."

"You asked me if I love you." Thirdy said as he appeared from the side.

Napatingin si Bea where the voice was coming from.

"Let me tell you now. I love you.."

Tears fell from Bea's eyes. Thirdy walked up to her.

"Not because of Aston, not about whatever past experience you had. I knew, you're the only woman for me in this world." he said as he handed her a single stemmed rose.

Thirdy took the ring from Bea's hands and knelt down in front of her.

"Will you marry me?"
