After the spine-chilling but amusing skating experience that Sam had given Toni, they decided to take a brief time to rest. They both leaned their backs on the rail at the side of the rink.

"Grabe, ang galing mo Sam. Tama ka nga. Sobra akong nag-enjoy! Thank you!," Toni said, completely stunned by Sam's amazing skating skills. In her head, she was still absorbing how talented Sam was. (1)She remembered how she discovered a lot of things about Sam when they were shooting their very first movie, You are the One. That he's a sleepyhead. He could be autistic because he has his own world sometimes and that he's really sweet.  He's quiet and shy but he can be funny without even trying. That he's a natural comedian, a down-to-earth person, and super fun to work with. And now, after seeing the skater side of Sam, a part of her realised that she wanted to learn more things about him.

"Hindi naman," Sam said timidly at Toni's compliment.

"You're welcome. I'm glad you had fun. I thought you're going to kill me eh."

He was pleased that Toni actually enjoyed the stunt he pulled off. He thought she'd actually keep on whining about it the whole time.

"Bakit naman?"Toni's eyebrows knitted at the bridge of her nose.

"Eh kasi, it's pretty dangerous and you were still pretty scared about this skating thing. So I thought you wouldn't like the idea at all," Sam explained, twisting on his side a little so he was facing her.  

"Siguro nung una, oo. Pero sobrang nag-enjoy talaga ako after. Thank you talaga. Nawala na yung kaba ko," Toni's expression softened and smiled at him appreciatively.

Sam flashed his million-dollar smile in return and then, he queried, "So, should we start training again?"

"Yup. Ready-ing ready na ko," Toni exclaimed and shifted away from the rail, ready to be trained by Sam again.

He walked in front of her, allowing just enough distance between them. He took her hands with his and uttered, "Just follow my lead, okay?"

Toni nodded. When Sam saw her affirmation, he tightened his grip on her hands.

"Now, glide your right foot towards me and then, alternately with your left foot," Sam commanded.

She obeyed. Breathing heavily, she moved her right skates towards Sam and then, alternately, she glided with her left skates.

Sam asked her to do this heaps of times until she got used to it. Toni was a fast learner, and so, it just took a little time for her to learn what he had been teaching her.

"Now, let's see if you can do it by yourself without having my hands for support," Sam said in the most gentle way as possible. He didn't want to freak Toni out that much about what he wanted her to do next. Inside, his heart was racing double time. He's worried about Toni getting hurt even though he knows exactly that skating is a physical activity. It is impossible for anyone not to fall or get hurt especially with beginners like Toni.
