Gwen: So, how's everything with you and Else? R: We're okay naman, weird lang na nakatira ka sa bahay ng asawa mo, it should be the other way around dahil ako ang lalaki, ikaw, okay ka lang ba? G: Well, okay kahit hindi... R: Gwen, I'm doing this for our future (kisses her hand).
At the garden of the Monte deVilla...

He still couldn't get over the hug and kiss that Nicomaine Elsa gave him. He felt so awkward but feeling more bad for what was happening. His promise to Gwen and his gratitude towards Nicomaine and her father. He remembered how Nicomaine looks the day of their wedding. She's wearing just a simple tea length wedding dress...

Nicomaine's simplicity is just beyond me, her humility. I always remember how simple she is in school. Buried herself in books, her mother always there to drop and pick her up from school. It was my last year in high school.

On her Mother's wake, she silently grieve with tears overflowing every time she sees people peeking at her beautiful Mother's face. I heard different stories about her death, I was seventeen at the time, what do I really know and I won't dare ask Nicomaine.
Arrived at the vacation house, a four bedroom house with a large living room and a big kitchen. A huge door will lead you out to the beautiful beach with white sand. Nicomaine Elsa and her late mother loves beaches, and this is their sanctuary.

Richard: It's so relaxing here, madalas ka ba dito? Nicomaine: Yeah, lalung dumalas when I came back from the States, kapag nami miss ko si Mama, punta agad ako rito, somehow I felt her presence here kasi madalas kami rito lalu na kapag may tampo sya sa Papa. R: Madalas ba silang mag-tampuhan? N: (looked at Richard in the eye) I'm not sure if you knew...(pause) but I knew...my father is always been in love with your mother. (Tears fell in her eyes) But my mother didn't care, she loves Papa so much that she doesn't see that or even try to feel that he's not in love with her. R: Oh God Else, I never knew that ( gave her a tight hug and never felt more sorry for her) I'm so sorry, is this why ...(Nicomaine stopped him) N: No, not your fault. Sabi ng Mama kapag mahal mo raw ang isang tao, you don't feel the pain or the hurt, kasi natatabunan daw yun ng pagmamahal. I did resented Papa but I understand him. I admire your mother's love for your father. She never once entertained the idea of getting involved with my father, not the way other people would do, use him for money. Yes, we agreed to this pero may limitations di ba? We agreed to divide the profits between our companies naman, di ba. It's all fair. R: Si Mama mo? how.. N: I told you, she didn't care as long as Papa comes home to us. I remember Mama crying on the phone, talking to my Ninong/Ninang Niccolo, I only heard her saying repeatedly that he loves Papa, that it hurts (tears in Nicomaine's eyes). R: (Wiping her tears) I think we should go for a swim and eat, then... N: Pataasan tayo ng saranggola..hahaha..tapos takbuhan tayo..
Late evening...
Nicomaine is still up, watching the stars, she cried as she knew that loving Richard has a price, the same as her mother...loving her father came with a price tag but that night she promised the stars that she will do everything to make Richard Damian fall hard on her...
Richard: Halika ka na, matulog na tayo. N: Okay. R: Why don't we sleep in one bed tonight...don't get me wrong...I mean, magtat... N: Sure.
Nicomaine woke up with Richard beside her, hugging her. Nothing happened that night..they just slept. To her surprise, Manang Juling is there preparing their breakfast (Manang Juling is her mother's kababata). Managing Juling: Magandang umaga hija(sabay yakap) ganda ganda talaga ng dalaga ni Amanda. N: Hahaha, nasaan na po si Biring? MJ: Pinauwi ko na at may sakit yata yung bunsong anak, di ka nagpasabi.. N: Kumusta kayo? Punta ako mamaya sa puntod ng Mama. MJ: Sige samahan kita.
Richard coming out from the bedroom.
N: Richard, si Manang Juling. MJ: Boyfriend mo? N: Asawa po.. MJ: Kailan pa? N: Usap po tayo Manang mamaya.
