Vice: O.O Oh..hi Babe!
Napatayo naman si Karylle sa nakita at pumunta sa pinto kung asan rin si Denise. Gulat din ito at hindi makapaniwala sa nakita. Karylle was already close to the door but Vice stopped her from going out by holding her hand. Minasahe ni Denise ang kanyang ulo, believing that it will make her easily absorb what's happening. Pumasok sya and Vice closed the door, then Vice looked back to Karylle, who is still in shock, then back again to Denise. He looked at Denise to ask her if it was okay if he'll talk to Karylle first. Denise nodded to say yes so Vice and K took a few steps forward to talk privately.
Vice: Karylle, kung ako ang dahilan nang pagkasira ng pagkakaibigan niyong dalawa, ako din ang aayos.
Karylle: I don't get it. Ano 'toh? Why is she here?
Vice: Siya yung girlfriend ko, K.
Karylle: I'm sorry but I can't--
Vice: Karylle please. Ayaw kong dun nalang matapos yung pagkakaibigan nyo.
Karylle: Hindi mo naiintindihan. Seriously, you don't.
Vice: Please stay.
Napatingin si K kay Denise. They're talking through their eyes.
Hindi naiintindihan ni Vice ang mga nangyayari.
Si Karylle, may lalaking mahal na mahal.
Si Vice.
Si Karylle, may bestfriend.
Si Denise.
Alam ni Denise kung gaano kamahal ni Karylle si Vice pero...
....mahal nya rin si Vice.
Okay lang sana yun e kaso...
mahal rin pala ng lalaking mahal na mahal nya ang bestfriend nya.
Ngayon lang niya nalaman yun at talagang nasaktan siya.
Pero ano nga ba ang karapatan niyang magalit?
Vice doesn't even know what she feels for him.
Vice doesn't even know that she loves him.
Karylle immediately looked away from Denise then looked at Vice's eyes again. His eyes that's telling her to stay.
Karylle: Okay, fine.
The sad face of Vice turned into a happy face when he heard this. Nagulat naman si Denise sa pagpayag ni Karylle. But honestly, K chose to stay just because of one reason. To avoid his questions. Kung hindi sya pumayag, Vice will just ask and ask the reason why she can't forgive his girlfriend. Karylle thought too, that it's much easier to watch the man she loves and her bestfriend together than telling him what she feels. The thoughts "Paano kung magalit sya?" and "Paano kung lumayo siya?" came back again so she decided to just simply say yes. It was, really, much easier and much better.

Dumeretso ang tatlo sa dining table. Magkatabi si Vice at Denise and K is seated across them. Nagsimula na silang kumain. If there's one word to describe the thing that's happening right now, it is awkward. Denise is just eating, she can't even look at Karylle or even Vice. Si Vice naman ay panay ang tingin lang sa dalawang babae while eating. He knew that he had to bring a topic up. His purpose of letting K stay is to fix the fight between her and his girlfriend, so if he doesn't speak, wala ring mangyayari.
Vice: This pasta is really good, K! ^^ --- Sabi ni Vice at tumingin kay K then he looked at Denise. Right babe? :)
Denise: Uh...uhm, y-yes. :) --- Denise said and flashed a quick smile.
