"Hi Miss Maine. Are you feeling better now? How did they get you out of the studios?"
"I'm better now, thanks. I just needed to rest. I tried to put on a disguise but I guess they saw Ate Oreo and Mike so they knew....but we got out fine...."
"Condo?"
"Passed by the doctor for some meds....then hotel na...are you coming over?"
"I'm in the next room. I'm not feeling too well, either."
"Oh no. How do you feel now?"
"Feverish....I think I'll sleep it off first...see you later, Miss Maine..."
"Take care, Tans."
Backstage just before the presscon.
"Are you okay? Your eyes are red....you look sick..."
"I feel sick....but....the show must go on...."
"Haay....but if you can't, you don't have to...."
"How's the dino?"
"Kaya..."
He nods. "...Tara na! They're calling us na...."
During the presscon, while others are being interviewed.
"....kaya pa?"
"Kakayanin...."
"Here...hold my hand..."
He takes her hand and intertwines his fingers with hers.
"You're sick nga....your palm is warm...."
"I'm feeling a bit cold...."
"Malapit na matapos....rest na tayo after...."
"Sleep with me?"
".....okay"
In the hotel room.
"....get ready for bed na....I'll also get ready and come back...."
"Okay...don't be too long..."
She returns to find him sleeping. She places her hand on his neck and forehead and finds him burning with fever; dried tears forming crusts on his eyes. She takes a moistened face towel from the bathroom and proceeds to wipe him down in an effort to bring down his temperature. She's also not feeling very well from her dinosaur attack but knows he needs her care more. A couple of hours later, his skin feels warm. She rests her head on his chest and sleeps. Unconciously, he wraps his arm over her. By morning, he wakes up still feeling a bit lethargic but better than the night before.
Rj slowly opens his eyes and is "greeted" by her hair as he looks down on his chest. He gives her a kiss on the head which wakes her.
"Good morning, Tans...how do you feel?" She says as she props herself up on her elbow and feels his neck and forehead before planting a kiss on his cheek.
"Good morning Miss Maine.....I feel a little better.....what happened?"
"....you were asleep when I came back so I tried to lower your temperature with a sponge bath...."
"Sponge bath?" he smiled impishly.
"Don't get ideas....I just wiped your face, arms and legs....ang init ng katawan mo e...."
"....hot for you...." he wiggled his eyebrows.
She pinched his side.
"Oooww! May sakit na nga e....mananakit pa...." He rubbed his side then pulled her so she was on top of him, staring diretly at her face. "Thank you...I love you...." he puckered up and kissed her on the lips.
"I love you more..." she replied and they kissed tenderly.
