Fran: (Didn't say anything)

Diego: (At the mic) Uhm, Fran?

Vilu: (Whispered to her) Just say yes. Come on!

Leon: You have to do it.

Gregorio: Francesca, you need to listen to what your heart is telling you.

Fran: Uhm, I- I'm sorry... (Got up and ran out)

Vilu: FRANCESCA!

Everyone: (Gasped)

Diego: (Quickly got down from the stage and went after her)

Vilu: Come on Leon. (Ran after them with Leon)

Gregorio: (Looked at them)

Diego: (Stopped) FRANCESCA!? Francesca where are you?!

Vilu: (Came with Leon)

Leon: Diego, where is she?!

Diego: I don't know. I think she's gone.

Vilu: (Sighed) Why did she run off like that?! She's not like that.

Diego: Its my fault. I've broke her heart.

Vilu: But She says that she did.

Diego: What?!

Vilu: She thinks that you probably hate her right now. She was sobbing uncontrollably this afternoon.

Diego: I know... I heard...

Vilu: You HEARD but you didn't SEE the entire thing.

Gregorio: (Came running) Where's Francesca?

Leon: She's gone.

Diego: Yeah, and its all my fault.

Gregorio: Come on, we need to go find her.

??: No need. I'm right here.

Everyone turned around and saw Francesca walking slowly from the other side.

Diego: (Came to her) Oh my god Fran, I-

Fran: (Backed away)

Diego: (Shocked) Fran?!

Vilu: Fran, are you okay?

Fran: (Sighed) I'm really sorry for everything guys. Especially you Diego. After what happened, I don't deserve you.

Diego: Don't say that, you have every reason in the world to deserve me.

Fran: I ran away Diego. I ran away from your proposal in front of everyone. I feel so embarrassed now...

Diego: Why'd you run away?

Fran: I don't know. I was just scared.
I didn't know how to react. I freaked out. I guess running away is the only solution for all of my problem. I'm so sorry Diego. I just-

Diego: (Held her) Relax. I'm okay. I understand. Your going through a tough time. Me too. I'm sorry for not believing you and fighting with you.

Fran: And I'm sorry too. I don't know what got into me.

Gregorio: (Smiled) Isn't this sweet.

Fran: And I must thank you Gregorio. Thank you for your support. Thank you for accepting me. And thank you for saying that I should be the only one with your son. Not anyone else. It truly makes me special, especially because its coming from you.

Gregorio: (Smiled) Your welcome Francesca. And I'm sorry for the way I treated you at first. I shouldn't have. When I found out I had a son, that truly changed me. Now, I strive to be the best father and father in law I can be to you and Diego.
