"Are you sure okay ka na?"
"Oo naman."
"Sigurado ka?"
"Oo nga. Bakit mo ba palaging tinatanong?"
"Eh namumutla ka pa eh."
He just came out from the bathroom, freshly bathed, clean shaven, wearing the spare clothes they found at the back of his car. Yun nga lang, pansin niya, maputla pa rin ito at malamlam ang mata.
Pero kahit ganoon ang hitsura ng lalake, hindi pa rin niya maiwasang pagnasaan ito.
Is it her hormones or she's just missing him so? Five months are still five months. Even with their misunderstanding, lalo pa niyang minahal ang lalake. Tulak ng bibig, kabig ng dibdib ang naging drama niya. At ngayong andito na ito at kasama siya, she always silently wishes they will be like this forever. Sana panindigan na nito ang sinabing hindi na ulit siya iiwan.
She'll wait for the day when tito Eduardo will confront her about the wrong figures she gave him and his son, Luis.
And what will happen to her again once Gerard learn about what she did? What will her punishment be?
Kung tutuusin, she did Gerard a favor. But basing on the short time she met the Manzano's, sigurado siyang gagawa at gagawa ang mga ito ng kahit ano para magantihan siya.
At pag dumating ang panahong iyon, maaasahan ba niyang nasa tabi niya si Gerard?
"...I'm okay. Naka-two rounds nga ako sa 'yo eh!"
"Ha? May sinasabi ka?"
"I said, nakapaligo na nga ako at naka-two rounds na tayo."
"Gerard ang boses mo! Baka maya-maya, marinig tayo ni daddy!"
"So what? I'll face the wrath of your father, honey, don't worry. I may not have proven it enough the last time, but now that I'm here inside you house, thanks to you by the way, I won't leave hangga't hindi bumabalik ang amor sa akin ng tatay mo."
"Anong binabalak mo?"
"Wala naman. I'll just face him nang ako, kung ano ako dati at kung ano ako ngayon. He knew my old self, I want him to know the new me and expecting he'll accept that."
"Ano ka ba dati?"
"The guy who was selfish and without any soul."
"At ano ka ngayon?"
"The guy who lives and breathes on your love."
"Wow, talaga?"
"You didn't believe me still? You want more proof?"
He was about to come near her but she stopped him.
"Don't!!!" she panickly warned him off.
"Samantha?"
She could see the hurt in his expression.
"Please don't take me wrong. It's just that...it's just....just..."
"What is it sweetheart?" He was holding out his hand, but again she stopped him.
"Huwag sabi!"
"Then tell me what's wrong?"
"My hormones is scaling up whenever you're just mere inches away from me," nahihiya niyang pag-amin.
"Really?"
"Really."
"Good, then!"
"Well Gerard, it's not!"
