**START**

Ken and Justin were just sitting quietly on a wooden bench near the lake, appreciating nature's beauty.

They were at Tagaytay, at Justin's family rest house. They came here two days earlier, before the 1Z team and their bandmates arrived to shoot their Show Break Season 5 finale

Justin was busy taking their selfie when he received a messenger notification from their GC. 

**Convo in GC**

Pablo: "Jah, naliligaw ata kami. Tama ba? Liliko dun sa pangawalang kanto after ng main road?"

Justin: "Eh? Kasama niyo naman si Kuya Yani ah?"

Pablo: "Tulog eh, nakakahiya naman gisingin." 

Justin: "Mamili kayo, maliligaw kayo o mahihiya kayong gisingin si kuya? hahaha!"

Stell: "San na nga? Matatagalan pa kami dumating dyan."

Justin: "Liko kayo pa-kanan sa pang 72 na pine tree mula dun sa coffee shop bago yung daan na paakyat." 

Josh: "Wow. Thank you Jah ha, napakalaking tulong mo. Pano pag may dalawang punong pinutol na? Edi di na kami nakarating dyan?"

Justin: "Hahaha, gisingin niyo nalang kasi si Kuya."

Stell: "Oo na, sige sige na, gigisingin na namin. 

Pablo: "Oy asan si Ken?

Justin: "Kasama ko, walang dalang phone eh."

Josh: "Baka kung ano na ginawa mo dyan ha."

Justin: "Baliw. Bilisan niyo na."

Stell: Sige na, sige na. Gising na kuya Yani."

Justin: "Ingat."

With that, Justin went back to taking photos of two of his favorite subjects: nature and Ken.

As everyone knows how Ken is, he doesn't usually bring his cellphone with him, especially whenever he's with Justin. He makes sure to give all his attention to Justin.

Just a few minutes later, they saw the 1Z white van coming to the rest house's parking. He then received a call from his brother.

"Jah, punta na kayo ni Ken dito, nag ro-roll yung camera for the vlog. Dapat makunan kayo na nandito kayo sa loob ng van kasama nina Pau para hindi maghinala yung viewers about sa inyo." Yani said. 

"Coming kuya, ipasok lang namin sa loob si Laoise." he answered then turned off his phone.

"Una ka na dun sa van, 'ga. Ako na magpasok kay Laoise." Ken volunteered.

Justin did not contest anymore; he handed Laoise to Ken and went to the van. Only a few minutes later, Ken followed them.

Ken's belongings were already inside the house, which explains why he only carries a little bag. For the sole purpose of appearing to be carrying a lot in the vlog, Justin insisted on bringing Xi-anne's bag.

"Ay sana all advance ang pahinga!" Stell teased the two. 

Ken and Justin just laughed it off. 

"San pwede ilagay yung mga food?" Josh asked upon entering the house.
