Roldan: What the fuck!? Why did you say that?

Kesh: I was nervous, okay? Now move faster!

Roldan: Kesh naman! Ilang beses mo na nami-meet si Mommy, 'di ba? Bakit natatakot ka pa rin sa ka--

Kesh: I love you and I love your mom but shit Dan, she scares the fuck out of me, okay? Dahil siguro sa cheekbones niya or her eyes or the.. what the fuck please just move faster!

Roldan: Hindi pa dumarating yung steak ko! Kesh, will you sit down? Gutom na gutom na ako and fuck I badly want to eat in peace! *takes a spoonful of rice* Gusto mo bang mag-away tayo dito sa buffet, ha?

Kesh: *sighs; sits down* Buti na lang paalis na Mommy mo rito. Oh my god that was really embarrassing. Tell me, mukha bang pangbuntis 'tong pagkain ko? Porke ba punung-puno 'tong plato ko? And tell me, am I that fat?

Roldan: *stares at her* What?

Kesh: Anong what?

Kesh: She has this stare na parang kailangang mong umamin, ano? I was scared!

*Roldan's steak arrives; Kesh lets him eat for a moment and focuses on her cakes*

Roldan: Dear?

Kesh: Hm?

Roldan: So do you want it?

Kesh: What it?

Roldan: *coolly* A baby. What else am I talking about here?

Kesh: *shrugs* Maybe. I don't know. Do you.

Roldan: *looks at her* Well.. yeah. I think it's time, don't you think?

Kesh: *blushes* Ubusin mo muna yang steak mo, okay? Let's talk after this. I have cakes to finish.

Roldan: Whatever you say, missus.
