MUSIC : Happy  Together

It's the year 2039. Aom is now fifty two years old, and Tina is forty nine. Their kids, Sunny and Meg are nineteen and thirteen years old, respectively. For ten years, Aom and Tina's relationship is still going strong. They made a promise of loving each other for the rest of their lives. LOVE, LOYALTY, AND COMMITMENT...these were the secrets of Aom and Tina's successful, and renewed married life. They feel so blessed having to enjoy a happy family life with their kids, they couldn't ask for more.

After a decade, there were lots of changes...Tina no longer works at Warner Bros. Aom needed her help in expanding their family business, so she decided to leave her job. She realized it would be difficult for Aom to manage two convenience stores,plus the fact that she's still a hands-on mother to their two teenage kids. More so, she thought it's a good investment for their kid's future. The first store is still being managed by Aom, while the newly opened one, which is located few blocks away from their house, is being managed by Tina.

There were also changes in the La Brea home. Aom and Tina have expanded their house since they needed separate bedrooms for the kids. Though she and her sister, Meg are really close, Sunny thought she needed some privacy because they have different interests. Aom and Tina have also expanded their garage. They made two rooms out of it. One is for plain storage, and the other one, a music room for Sunny. It's like a private pad for Sunny, whenever she feels like playing with her acoustic and electric guitars. Sometimes, it's like a family room too, because they would all stay there and enjoy listening to Sunny's music. Sunny's also a singer just like her parents. Once in a while she and her Mumsy would still play the ukelele. Aom and Meg are their avid fans.

Papa Prasong and Mama Pornphan are both retired. Alice and her husband, Nick, are the ones managing the store of Papa Prasong. They're all living together in the Manaying's residence. Alice and Nick have an eight year old son named Scott.

Tina's parents are also retired. Her Mama, who suffered a stroke ten years ago, is now fully recovered. Her Papa already gave Air the authority to manage their family business.

Chix is already married to Jigs for eight years now. She still works at Bank of America. For ten years, she and Tina didn't have anymore communication, though their kids, Sunny and Angel, have remained bestfriends to this day.

Chix and, her family are still living in New York. Daddy Ricardo passed away two years ago, that's why they're all thinking of selling the house in New York, and just go back to LA. It was tough for all of them dealing with the loss, especially on Mommy Marinel's part, and so, they all decided to give themselves a few months before they fly back to LA. Anyway, they still own the house at La Brea. They just let a close relative take care of it for the last ten years.

Meg is a typical thirteen year old. She's the exact opposite of Sunny, very quiet and almost like a nerd. She's a bookworm, and she prefers to spend most of her time reading all day in her room. She has very few but loyal friends. She may be quiet most of the time but she's so sweet as a daughter and as a sister. She loves her family so much, and doesn't keep any secrets from them.

Sunny is not the typical nineteen year old. She grew up with extra ordinary abilities. She's intelligent, and is musically inclined. She has a good singing voice and she plays the guitar so well. She formed a music band with four other girlfriends from her school. She named the group, SUNNY DAY. Of course, she's the lead vocalist, and plays the lead guitar. The band concentrates mostly on playing the music of 70's, 80's, and 90's. Sometimes they play country music. This is one good reason why Sunny's band has a lot of followers. Not a lot of bands these days would still play old music, like they do. SUNNY DAY performs at Brea Bar every Friday and Saturday nights. Whatever Sunny earns from doing gigs, she saves it. That's one good thing she learned from her parents, who happened to be both hardworkers at a very young age.

The way Sunny was loving her parents ten years ago is still the same as it is today. She grew up very close to her parents. Just like Meg, she's very sweet and she doesnt keep any secrets from them. But then lately, her parents were noticing some changes in her behavior. The way Sunny dresses herself , is not the girly type anymore. She's fond of wearing black tee shirts, black denims, and black boots. Almost like a goth. She would usually sport the Man Bun hairsyle. She's also fond of wearing leather wristbands. She also has a tattoo of the chinese Yin Yang sign on her left shoulder. At first, Aom didn't approve of the tattoo, but then later on, Tina made her understand that Sunny's an artist, and it's a part of her self expression. So, Aom finally consented to that , but she made it sure Sunny would not do body piercings. Aom doesn't like that. But that's not the only thing...Aom's mind is restless when it comes to Sunny being a sturdy type. She thinks her daughter is a TOM, though she's not sure yet. She's not yet ready to talk to Sunny about it. She plans of telling her wife first about these things.

Angel Ortiz is now carrying the surname, De los Reyes. She is now the adopted daughter of Jigs, whom she fondly calls, Mamu. Like any other girls her age, Angel grew up, very fond of doing girly stuff-- shopping for clothes, shoes and make ups, sporting different styles of hair every now and then, likes attending parties exclusively for girls , and all other related stuff. She's an extrovert young lady, charming, and very friendly. Plus the fact she's a beauty, with oozing sex appeal. She's also petite, just like her Mama Chix. She excels in academics, which made Chix very proud of her daughter all these years. Angel may be friendly and outgoing, but she's inexperienced when it comes to love. She thinks she's not ready yet, though she has a lot of guy suitors. And Chix likes that. She would always tell Angel to take it easy, and enjoy life first, before committing herself in a relationship. Chix thinks her daughter is too young for that. Aside from Sunny, of course Angel's first bestfriend is her Mama. She never keeps anything from Chix. She grew up very close to her.
Through the years, Sunny and Angel have remained the best of friends. They communicate almost everyday through phone calls, texts, or chats. But they have come up with a strange agreement. They made each other a promise of not showing their actual faces, or how they look like, physically, until to the time they would finally meet again. Both their parents find it so weird, but they just shrugged it. Kids are still kids. They have their own world. That's what they would always say.

And yes...Kids are still kids. They have their own world. They have their own secrets...They're making their own plans. But they're very careful...They're both sensitive when it comes to the feelings of their parents. Because what happened ten years ago, has left a mark in their hearts...Few months from now, and there'll be some changes..They're both excited, but somehow, they also feel afraid...BECAUSE THE PAST WOULD ALWAYS BE ON ONE CORNER...MAYBE BURIED FOR YEARS, BUT NOT TOTALLY FORGOTTEN...
