About a fourth through the ride, Rachel yawns. "Rich, tulog muna 'ko?"
"Sige, go. 'Di ka ba nakatulog ng maayos kagabi?"
"Hindi eh. Please wake me up kapag nandun na tayo, kung sa'n mo man ako dalhin."
"I will. Do you want me to prop the seat backwards para mas komportable?"
"Hindi, ako na. You're driving, Richard."
Richard focused on the view through the windshield, "Sabi ko nga, Boss, I'm driving eh." He could only smile while accepting his defeat.
Richard parked the car at a 7Eleven store to make a quick phone call. "Hello, Manang?.. Okay naman ho.. Magtathank-you lang ho dahil nailagay niyo dito sa kotse 'yung last minute na bilin ko.. Haha 'di ko ho kasi inexpect na kami lang ni Rach 'yung aalis eh, kaya naiisipan ko na dalhin na lang siya du'n.. Sige ho, salamat ulit." He hopped back in his car. Ang sarap naman ng tulog ng reyna. He took off her eyeglasses before hitting the road once again.

Richard arrives to their destination an hour and a half later. "Rach? Rachel? Rach, gising na we're here."She stirred and slowly opened her eyes. She ran her hands through her face and looked outside the window. "Rich, we're..."
Clark Picnic Grounds (pctto)
"You got that right. We're here."
"You drove all the way over here? Seriously?" Rachel asked.
"Hindi naman traffic eh. Isang oras kalahati lang, as usual. And besides, why not? We haven't been her in what, like years. Ayaw mo ba?" Richard.
"Siyempre, gusto. Pero, Rich, anong gagawin natin dito? Did you bring anything?"
"As a matter of fact, my love, I did," Richard winked.
He took the picnic basket that manang prepared out of his car's back compartment, "Tada!"
She laughed and shook her head, "You're impossible."
Hand in hand, they walked through the park to choose a perfect spot for them to stay in. Rachel pointed out a picnic table under an acacia tree, "Du'n tayo, Rich! So that the view is nice and we have the tree canopy as our shade."
"Okay, let's go!"
Richard put the picnic basket down and assisted Rachel to side on the bench. He laid down the food, utensils, etc. on the table. "Uy, may fruit salad? Oh, and brownies too?"
