"Oh Bong, welcome back." Martin exclaimed in surprise as soon as he saw the president enter the Malacañang. "Dito ka pa pala nakatira. Akala ko nagtanan na kayo ni Le-"
Bongbong immediately covered his mouth. "Shut up! Ano bang ginagawa mo rito?" He hissed before pushing him away after he felt his saliva on his palm.
"Shut up-shut up ka pa d'yan. Your pictures are all over the internet. Nandon pa kayo sa condo ni madam attorney." Martin said while wiping his lips violently.
Instead of answering, he walked passed him to the main longue of the palace. His cousin just followed.
"I came here to ask kung anong real score." He finally announced with enthusiasm.
He halted. "Wala."
"Anong wala? Eh halos do'n ka na tumira sa kan'ya. 'Di pa ba kayo mag-asawa?" Martin continued bombarding him with such questions while they were on his way to his office.
He stopped finally and glared at him. "I haven't asked the question."
His cousin gave him a look of confusion. "Bakit hindi pa?"
"Paano kung ireject ako?" He asked - looking sharply at him.
Martin scoffed. "Bong, ilang araw ka nang nando'n sa condo n'ya. Tingin mo irereject ka pa no'n? Ano kayo? Fuck buddies?"
He sighed in response. "Hindi gano'ng klaseng babae si Leni."
"I know." His cousin said with a grin. "Kaya naman, lagyan mo na ng label."
"Then, help me."
"I'm busy, pinsan." Martin replied with a tap on the shoulder.
"Magkano?"
His cousin grinned. "Now, we're talking."

"Welcome po to Heaven's Gate." One of the sisters greeted Leni and Bongbong as soon as they stepped out of the car.
Behind them were vans carrying school and pantry supplies. This was one of Leni's projects under DSWD and Bongbong insisted on coming with her. He promised her that he was done with all his work before they left the palace.
"I'm sister Floryn po. Thank you sa mga dala. Nako. Tuwang-tuwa ang mga bata." She told the pair while they were walking along the hallways of the orphanage.
"Wala po 'yon. Yung mga volunteers and donors po ang dapat nating pasalamatan." She answered humbly.
Bongbong's eyes followed a familiar child who was carrying a red rose. The kid then gave it to Leni who was startled since her conversation with the sister was suddenly cut off.
"Please be the first lady." The child said and left without saying anything else.
"Hala." Leni laughed and looked at Bongbong in amusement. "Ang cute." She commented — unaware that it was his doing.
Not long after, another kid on pigtails approached them. She was looking at the marble floor in shyness but she managed to hand a red rose to Leni.
"P-please be the f-first lady." She said before running away.
Leni had no chance to talk to them. Not long after, all of the kids were lining up to give her roses. Everyone was saying the exact same thing.
"Please be the first lady."
Leni was too overwhelmed to say anything back. She kept on accepting the flowers they were handing her. She was accepting the last flower when she noticed that Bongbong was nowhere to found.
She frowned. She was planning to ask him to hold all of the flowers for her but she did not expect him to leave her. The reason for his disappearance became clear to her when a sound of violin began to echo the hallway.
Bongbong entered the view with a massive bouquet of pink roses.
She laughed. "Anong ginagawa mo?"
He knelt as soon as they were face to face. "Maria Leonor Gerona, please be my first lady."
Her hand automatically moved to her face but she was not able to answer.
"Can you be my girlfriend?" He repeated to give her a clear question.
She paused for a moment and looked at her with confusion. His heart was pounding at that very moment. He was not afraid of rejection but a rejection from her could cause his destruction.
He saw the lump on her throat when up and down as she gulped. His sweat felt cold while watching her contemplate.
She finally spoke. "Hindi pa ba kita boyfriend?" Her eyes were wide in shock and she leaned forward before hissing in a soft voice that only he could hear. "We fucked like crazy."
Bongbong chuckled.
"Sir president, ano daw po ang sagot ni ma'am Leni?" One of the kids asked, hugging a teddy bear.
He laughed again before answering. "Yes daw."
He watched as the children jumped in joy — knowing that they did something nice for the pair. His eyes went back to Leni who was blushing while giggling. Her eyes were also watching the kids celebrate.
He grabbed her waist and whispered on her ear. "I don't remember fucking like crazy."
She glared at him. "Anong tawag mo do'n?"
He shook his head. "Wala talaga akong maalala eh. Can you remind me? Parang nabitin kasi yata ako no'ng last time eh." He whispered seductively.
She pushed him away. "Mahiya ka naman. May mga madre oh." She said and looked around.
That was when they noticed that they were all watching them while giggling. He saw her cheeks go red.
The moment was abruptly cut off when the child in pigtails approached them.
"Hi, Candy." Leni greeted her.
The kid was still looking at the ground. "Pwede po humingi ng favor?"
"Of course, anything." She replied.
Bongbong was just watching as she talked to the kid. He was smiling from ear to ear.
"Wala kasi akong kaibigan dito." The kid explained with a sad eyes.
"Okay." Leni did not know what to answer. "Bakit? What happened?"
"Ayaw nila ako kalaro."
"Gusto mo bang kausapin ko sila for you?" She offered.
The kid shook her head.
"Then, ano yung favor na need mo from me?" She asked gently — her hand was caressing the child's back.
"Pwede gumawa kayo ng maraming baby para may kaibigan ako?" The kid replied.
For a moment, Leni was too stunned to speak. "A-ano. Kasi..." She looked at Bongbong who was grinning. "Did you ask her to say that?"
He shook his head. "No." He continued chuckling. "Don't you think it's God's way of telling us what to do?"
"Bong..." She pinched his sides before looking back at Candy. "Tignan namin kung kaya ha." Then the kid nodded before running away.
"Ano? Hindi pa ba natin sisimulan?" Bongbong asked — teasing. "Parang walang tao sa kitchen."
"Bonggg. Ang baboy mo."
