Jachin
Text ka pag nakauwi ka na, @Abe
Jachin
Ihahatid ko lang din si Mila
Abe
Okay
Abe
Si Rigo?
Jachin
Ngalay na ako sa kakasandal sakin. Dito na ata matutulog. May amats na, so can't drive.
Abe
Okay
Abe
Si Fatima na siguro bahala.
Jachin
May spare room naman dito
Jachin
Ikulong mo nga, @Fatima 👿
Abe reacted 😆
Jachin
Tigas ng ulo sabi ko wag masyadong uminom
Fatima 👿
Iiwan ko na lang sa sala
Jachin
HAHAHAHAHA
Jachin
Ikaw na bahala. Hintayin ko lang matapos sa restroom si Mila.
Jachin
And Evie
Jachin
Tapos uuwi na rin kami

[DIALOGUE]
< OUTSIDE FATIMA'S HOUSE. LATE EVENING. >
Nang lumabas si Mila sa restroom ay nagreklamo itong nahihilo na kaya ikinawit ni Jachin ang kamay nito sa braso niya para sa supporta.
Jachin
You good? Lalakad pa tayo palabas.
Mila
Mm-hmm. . . thank you.
Jachin
Hilo ka 'no? Dami mong ininom.
Mila
Stress lang. . . and well, (hiccup) problems.
Evie quietly followed them, gaze locked on their arms interwined.
Jachin
. . . Eve?
Evie
Huh?
Jachin laughed.
Jachin
Tulala ka. Hilo ka rin?
Evie
Oh, no! I only took a couple of sips. Konti lang.
Jachin
Sumabay ka na sa 'min.
Mila turned to look at them. Nakasandal na ito sa sasakyan ni Jachin na nakapark sa harap ng bahay ni Fatima.
Evie quickly shook her head. She didn't want to be a bother to them.
Evie
No, no! I booked a ride na.
Jachin
Ha?
Evie
Kanina sa restroom. May nabook na ako.
Evie waved her phone and prayed he wouldn't check. She gave him her best smile—dimples and all—to look more convincing.
Jachin bit his lip.
Jachin
Sure ka?
Evie
Yes. And out of way ako, I live very far.
Jachin
Alright. Ingat ka.
Mila
Bye, Evie!
Kahit na nahihilo ito, kumaway pa rin sa kanya bago pumasok sa sasakyan.
Evie
Bye! Ingat kayo. Drive safe! Don't overtake. Wag magmadali. Seatbelts on!
Jachin smiled. He wanted to make sure she got home safe, but when Mila called for him, his feet automatically walked towards her.
