Lance's POV ( ROE's father) 6 years ago......
"Ma,She's not a lesbian! She's just boyish! "
"You see ? it even came out from your mouth, a lesbian is a boyish woman! "
"Ma,babae ang apo niyo."
"I know! but is her soul?"
"Come on ma! Anak ko siya. Masyado pa siyang bata."
" Lance, I'm doing this for the benefit of all of us. All she's going to do is go on a date! A DATE! don't act childish! It's just a date son! if the guy likes him then will see how they go, if not . I'm going to find other guys. Isn't 13 old enough for a simple date?"
"WHAT? ma? 13! 13 is so young! baka isipin pa po ng ibang tao bata palang pinapaligawan na natin.and let her find herself a date. "
"I'm doing her a favor and I am diminishing her tasks. Isa pa , Mamaya jan wala pa lang balak mag hanap ng date yan! "
"nung bata ako bwal makipag date,sana pala nagbakla na lang ako...'" pabulong kong sabi..
"Hoyy! narinig ko yon!"
"Ma! you're so brutal,stop hitting my head! MA!!
" gusto mo bang mawalan ng mana?. O sya tell her to prepare for a date today"
"TODAY MA? BAKIT NGAUN NIYO LANG PO ITO NASABI . MA NAMAN?"
"Because this is an urgent call. I just wanna make sure she's a woman before she proceeds to her trainings. Mas madaming lalaki ang makakasalamuha niya. Mamaya matuluyan and besides, I know these will not splay out of hand."
"No need ma, I can sense her eavesdropping behind that door."
I know my daughter. I know when she's around or not. I know everything about her, that's why I believe she's a really diligent woman. Makulit lang si Mama.
"Okay, Roe come in please"
*sighs* my daughter... my clever sneaky daughter..
"Sorry po"
"No , it's fine. So have you heard all?"
"Opo"
"Are you??... " Si Mama, kung kausapin ang mga apo niya nakukuha sa tingin.
"Opo . Okay lang po wala naman po akong gagawin mamaya. Pero Mita, this has nothing to do with marriage yet d ba? and serious relationships . "
OKAY LANG? IS THIS MY DAUGHTER ? SABAGAY AT THE AGE OF 13, IT'S REALLY NOT SOMETHING SERIOUS..
and
why is mom looking at me? don't tell me it is going to happen ma..
"Well see about that soon. But for the mean time go and take a rest and be graceful . But I promise this date depends on the both of you.Better if you'll get married soon but---
nanlaki ang mata ng aking dalaga ng marinig niya ang sinabi ni mama....
"MA!"
"I was just kidding Roe, We'll talk about that matter after your date"
"sure lola"

ROE"S POV
A date? it's a first. And authorized pa ng family . well if not of course i won't agree.
Naunahan ko pa si ate Jan magka date, eh 22 na yon.
