When Sol perceived Brent's car pulled in her condo's driveway, she acted swiftly. She was confident he would pick her up so they could go to the café at the suggestion of her. Usually when she desires a little something to eat or has an affinity for sweets, Sol visits the said café.
Brent patiently awaited for Sol by leaning against the car's door after getting out of the car, which Sol saw. Whilst it didn't appear that he was eagerly waiting, the young man had indicated that he intended to speak with her regarding something crucial, so she felt feeling uneasy for making him wait for an extended amount of time.
Sol sprayed the fragrance, and she left the premises right away to meet Brent. She was moving so quickly because she was unwilling to allow him to stand around for her that she nearly tumbled down the flight of stairs.
Sol was gasping for air and declared "H-Hi! I'm so for making you, uhm... patiently wait." Brent enquired worriedly, "What happened to you?"
She forcefully smiled. "Huh? Wala naman!"
"Nagmamadali ka ba bumaba?" Brent raised his eyebrows like it was going to fly away from his face. "Hindi, ah!"
Brent was left with to look at the shoes she was wearing in order to recognize those. "Really, Sol? Look over your lace in your shoe."
"Does it giving you sense 'not in a hurry' thing?" he raise.
Apart for Brent's fervently riveted stare on her, Sol hadn't been clear exactly where she ought to look. "I'm sorry, I just don't want to make you wait for long..." Given that she has no ability to stare steadily at him, Sol opted to glimpse down momentarily.
For the reason to tighten Sol's shoelaces, Brent knelt down in front of her. "You know that I'm always willing to wait consistently, whichever the moment it takes for you to make yourself tidy, so it doesn't matter to me if you're taking time to do so."
"Thank you, Brent."
"No problem, just please keep in mind that I'm always willing to wait kahit ano pang ginagawa mo, ha?"
Sol beam. "Okay po, got it!"
"Tara na? Nagugutom ka na ba? Anong o-order-in mo?" tanong ni Brent. "Huh? Bakit ako lang o-order? Hindi ka ba kakain?" kumunot ang noo ng dalaga.
"Hindi, ikaw lang talaga ibibili ko ng food," ani Brent tsaka umikot sa kabilang parte ng kaniyang sasakyan para pagbuksan ng pintuan si Sol papasok sa loob ng sasakyan.
Humagikgik si Sol pagkatapos pumasok sa sasakyan ni Brent. "You know that I have hands, right?"
"Princess treatment, of course!" Brent winked before starting his car engine.

From the moment as they arrived at the café, Brent promptly placed a food order for his girl, while Sol waited at the designated table. Sol's favorite thing on the menu was the Pistachio Sans Rival, whom Brent ordered in combination with an iced Mixed Berries and Hibiscus tea.
Brent seemed to be looking about aimlessly, and this drew Amby's attention. Brent, meanwhile, is enthralled by the splendor of the place that Sol recommended to him is. Being here for the first time, he saw what a lovely place the setting was.
