Katulad ng pagsibol ng puno, gaanon rin kabilis ang pagkakaibigan nila Erin. At katulad rin ng pag paglagas nito, ay kasing bilis rin ng mga ala-alang tila kahapon lamang.
This is a story where time is a test. Will the echoes of laughter and shared...
Jake asked Erin hysterically. Umalis lang ito saglit upang kumuha ng gamit and when he got back, the jail cells were all occupied. But instead of seeing the prisoners giggly like how they should be —they were all shouting to let them go.
"Some were loitering, yung iba inappropriate ang damit, yung mga usual na dahilan para arestuhin" If only Jake's hand weren't holding anything, he would've slap his face right in front of Erin who's staring at him as if telling him that she did the right thing.
"That's.. that's not how jail booths work here" Erin's head tilt as if asking Jake how jail booths were supposed to work — because in Erin's vocabulary, Jail booth is for those who don't follow the rules, unless mali ang itinuro sakanila ng kanilang teacher sa orphanage.
Jake was cut off by Parker who's also holding a student wearing handcuffs. The student seems annoyed dahil bigla na lamang daw siyang pinosasan ni Parker kahit kumakain lang ito.
"Erin, this one is eating right next to the 'no eating sign'" tumango si Erin sa sinabi ni Parker at akmang idadala ang estudyante sa selda when Jake cut them off. Hindi na nito napigilan ang sarili at napahilamos na ito sa kanyang mukha gamit ng kamay. And here I thought they're the sane ones. Natuwa pa ito noon nang kasama nito si Parker at Erin sa isang grupo, Jake thought they would be efficient since tahimik sila, he thought magiging chill lang ang pag takbo nila ng booth dahil mukhang hindi nagrereklamo ang dalawa.
It was the first day of the school festival, the school was filled with students visiting various booths and outdoor activities.

The busiest were Chrys and Keen dahil hawak nila ang buong food stalls. The line were getting longer because the sun is about to set, they need to find a secured spot and some snack dahil magsisimula na ang mga stage performances. Hindi na rin maaninag ni Jake ang mukha ni Leeon, he must be very busy preparing for the event. Ang tanging nabisita niya lamang ay si Saki na naglalaro said firing range while Milo tend for the students. Hinayaan na lamang ni Milo si Saki since he's the youngest, let the child play ika nga.
"Let them all go" mahinang saad ni Jake which made the students sigh in relief. Hindi nakalagpas sa paningin ni Jake ang pag pout ng dalawa. The two seem to enjoy playing cops but they took it literally that Jake needs to intervene.
"Are we doing it wrong?" despite seeing how Erin's eyes flicker as if waiting Jake to tell her she did a good job —Jake just agreed, he doesn't want to sugarcoat things.
Isa-isang pinakawalan nila Parker ang mga estudyante, Jake couldn't even remember how many times the students thanked him sa sobrang rami nito.
"Ganito kasi yan, this is not a literal jail booth. It's some sort of matchmaking" page-explain ni Jake sa dalawa as the two listen intently. Medyo na awkward pa si Jake dahil sa titig ni Erin, it's like she doesn't want to look at anyone else but him at that moment.
