Kit is now having a drink with Barry, Leni's spokesperson. He decided to call him because he can't keep his feelings for Leni hidden for another month since she will be departing to Boston tomorrow to finish her work as a Hauser Leader. No one knew that he is starting to have feelings for her but without mentioning her name while conversing with Barry, He decided to let his frustrations be told, hoping he will get some piece of advice.
"Alam mo yon tol, di naman ako yong tipong duwag pero pag sa kanya..wala eh natitiklop ako."
"Sino ba yan??? Kanina pa sya laman ng kwento mo."
Barry asked curiously.
"Nasa point na ako na mag confess pero pinipigilan ko lang masaktan sarili ko."
Kit answered after finishing his first bottle of beer.
"Bakit sure ka na masasaktan ka? Eh sa angas at gwapo mong yan, mababusted ka."
Kit smiled a little and cover his face with his hands.
"Di ko alam tol, I know mahal nya pa rin yon..."
Barry laughed seeing Kit so hopeless.
"Kanina pa ako dito tawang tawa sayo, di na tayo teenager tol, simple lang.. sabihin mo sa kanya wala namang mawawala"
"Kung alam mo lang di mo masasabi yan..basta iba sya"
"Sino nga? Clue?"
Kit in his drunken state, showed Barry his finger heart then laughed.
"Ga*o....Korean?"
Kit slightly punched Barry's shoulder.
"Pu*a tol, di no..Apaka slow mo.."
"Sino? sabihin mo na kasi.."
As Kit is trying to show him another hint of flashing a L sign, Barry realized that Kit is referring to Leni.
"Totoo?? Ga*o, pwede ba yon?
Barry can't stop himself from swearing.
"I know..di pwede..di ko alam, pano ba to?"
Kit in his weakest state lean his head on the table and gradually fell asleep while Barry is still conscious when suddenly Kit's phone rings. Barry got nervous when he saw Leni's name calling...He decided to wake up Kit but he was still asleep so he answered..
"Kit, free ba sched mo tomorrow?"
"Hello Veep, Si Barry to, umiinom kami ni Kit ngayon kaso nakatulog"
Kit is now half asleep but he can hear Leni's voice on the other end he hurriedly wake up and grab his phone from Barry..
"Len ano...do you need something?"
Leni could hear his hoarse voice.
"Ano..di ba I will go back na tomorrow, let's have an early lunch daw..nag aaya kasi Ang close inn team..Tama sama natin si Spokes..."
" Avail maman sched namin bukas"
"Okay, I'll text you na lang the details. Can I talk to Barry saglit?"
Kit handed his phone to Barry.
"Spokes.. Gabi na..uwi na kayo."
And they all giggled.
"Yes..Veep konti na lang..Ang laki kasi problema ni Kit"
"Ano na naman problema nyan?"
Kit glared at Barry signaling him to stop.
"Hindi "ano" Veep..."Sino"
"Balik mo nga sa kanya ang phone"
"Belmonte.. Sino na naman pinoproblema mo?"
"Wala..sa trabaho lang to"
"Lovelife Veep"
Barry butt in.
"Love life?? Kit, Tama na yan, ipagpabukas mo na lang"
"Heto na, uuwi na nga, I'll see you tomorrow."
