Title Translation: Venetian Escape

May 17, 9pm, Como
R knocks on M's door.

M: *opens the door and giggles* Ano yan? Bakit ganyan ang suot mo?

R: *in his fake mustache and fedora hat* Basta. We're on another mission. Hinanda mo ba yung sinabi ko?

M: Yes. Eto na. *shows R her backpack* Bakit kailangan ng extra clothes, Love?

R: Basta. Where are your wig and glasses?

M: Here. *points to the bed beside her*

R: Suot mo na. Medyo madami pang tao sa labas but we need to sneak out now. *smiles*

M: Pakagat muna.

R: Ano? Bakit?

M: Pakagat muna. Di mo ako pinakagat kanina eh. *pouts*

R: Ugh, sige na nga. Kundi kanlang love di ako papayag aa pananakit mo sa akin.

M: *giddily bites R's arm and shoulder* Di naman sa pananakit yun. Nangi-gigil kasi ako sa'yo.

R: Aray. Ang sakit mo naman manggigil. *rubs his shoulder* Okay na ba? Pwede na tayo umalis? Male-late tayo sa surprise ko sa'yo.

M: Halaaaah.. Surprise? Exciting. *puts on the wig, glasses and deep red lipstick*

R: *takes M's hand* Let's go, Love.

R and M check the hallway and sprint to the elevator once they see that the coast is clear. Once in the elevator, R adjusts his hat and glasses and M's scarf*

R: Mas madaming tao sa lobby so we really have to be sneaky.

M: Yes, Sir. *smiles at R widely*

R: *pigil kilig smile* Don't smile, Love. Huli na tayo agad dyan.

M: Okay, Love. Roger that. *stops smiling*

R then holds M by the wrist and briskly walks out of the elevator and the hotel, ignoring the curious stares on them.

They get in a car that was already waiting for them up front.

R immediately starts driving off before anyone recognizes them or anyone who does actually calls them out.

M: Love, kinabahan ako dun. May mga tumingin talaga sa atin parang nakilala tayo.

R: Hayaan mo sila. Wala naman silang proof na tayo yun.

M: Paano? They'll see our rooms are empty.

R: *smirks* Napaghandaan ko na yan. I asked Sam to cover for us.

M: Halaaaaah... Okay. Sige na. Ikaw na ang ready. Saan nga tayo pupunta?

R sets the GPS in the car.

M: Venice?

R: Let's call this mission, The Venetian Escape, our little Italian Road Trip. *smiles at M widely*

M: Love! *kisses R on the cheek and hugs his arm, giddily smiling* Talaga ba? Road trip to Venice? Wow! Grabe ka, Love. *kisses R's cheek repeatedly* Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I love you so much.

R: *grins* Ang sarap ang daming kiss. *takes M's hand, intertwines their fingers, kisses her hand* You're always always welcome. I love you more and more and more.

M plays some OPM music from her phone during their trip. It is going to be just a short 3-hour and 10-minute drive.
