as they arrive at her house, his eyes widens and he looks around. "Ang ganda nito, Klay. Pero, ba't iba sa mga bahay sa San Diego?" Fidel questions, his eyes wondering around the house. "Kasi diba sabi ko? Galing ako sa taon 2022. Sa ngayon, wala na ang mga Espanyol at iba na ang disenyo sa mga bahay, tulad sa akin." she responds, entering the kitchen.

"O, gutom ka? Gagawa ako ng pagkain. Anong gusto mo?" she asks, bringing out equipment. "Kahit ano, basta ginawa mo lang yan." he jokes, chuckling while she rolls her eyes. She walks up to the fridge and takes ingredients for adobo.

"Ano yan? Ba't may ilaw sa loob?" he asks, then sticks his hands inside the appliance. "Huy! Malamig to, o!" he shouts, taking his hand out and stares at the giant object. "Tawag diyan, ay fridge. O refridgator, basta!" she raises her voice a little while cooking. He approaches Klay, and looks at the stove, then turns to her.

"Umupo ka nalang at manood ng tv. Wag kang magulo!" she scolds, pointing her finger to the couch. "Oo na, pero di ko mapaunawan ang sinasabi mo, Klay. Ano yung... tv?" Fidel asks, looking at her with curiosity, as if he was a child asking their mother about the meaning of a word. She simply sighed and chuckled, looking at him with a smile plastered on her face.

"Ang ibig sabihin ng TV ay television, halika rito." she walks from the kitchen to the living room, leaving her cooking on pause. She then turned on the tv with a remote and turned to him, who was standing there, looking at the tv with shock and curiosity. "O, umupo ka na.' she says, pointing to the couch. And he immediately followed, getting comfy.

She puts on a cooking show, and then turns to him. "Okay na ba to?" she asks, holding the remote. "Okay na, bumalik ka na sa pagluluto mo. Nagugutom na ako." he chuckles, then turns his gaze to the tv in front of him. He was mesmerized at the sight, colorful effects and of course, delicious food.

It was different back where he came from, where the only entertainment he had was books. It contained limitless knowledge, and creativity. It expressed the author's feelings very well, and problems that are expressed through the character's words, actions, and behavior.

As he was watching TV, she was finishing up dinner. She got food and put it on two plates. He turned to her, smelling the delicious food she cooked.

"Tapos ka na? Sarap ng amoy kasi eh." he asked, chuckling. "Oo, kaya't bilisan mo na at kakain na tayo." she shouted, rolling her eyes once again, and setting the food on the table. Both of them took a seat, their chairs facing each other. He took a bite of the food, and his face expression became shocked.

"O! Ang sarap naman nito, Klay! Di ko inakala na magaling ka pala sa pagluto!" he exclaimed, taking multiple bites. "Sige na, kumain ka na. Bilisan mo para mahugas na ang mga plato." she answered, seemingly rushing. After they exchanged words while eating, she gathered the plates and washed them. Fidel walked up to her, "O, sige na. Ako nalang maghuhugas, magpahinga ka na." grabbing the plates and washing them.

"Hah? Talaga? Yan ba yung Fidel na kilala ko? Mukhang hindi eh." she exclaimed, looking at the plates, then back to him. "Oo, ako to. Bilisan mo na, magpahinga o matulog ka na. Baka may gagawin ka bukas, kaya't matulog ka na, ha?" he repeated, chuckling. "

"Sige na nga, ang kulit mo." she spoke, walking back whilst rubbing the back of her head rapidly. "Good night!" he raised his voice, hearing a faint "Good night." soon after.

timeskip to when he's done washing the plates <3

When he finished placing back the plates back, he walked upstairs. He saw her door open, and he peaked through. There, she layed, peaceful and sound asleep. He smiled at her, and entered the room quietly.  He got a pillow she wasn't using, and layed it on the ground. Placing his head on the pillow, he closed his eyes, smiling as he fell asleep into a dream where they get married.
