LOCATION: NAIA Terminal II
Lahat sila ay inaantok pa ngunit wala silang choice kundi ang gumayak ng maaga para sa kanilang flight papuntang Paris, France which is to depart at exactly 4:00 in the morning. Kasalukuyan nilang iniaayos ang kanilang mga bagahe matapos makasakay sa private plane na pagaari nina Ley. They'll travel alk the way to Paris because the next day is Robin's debut and it was to be celebrated there.
Malaki ang private plane ngunit mas napili nilang magtabi-tabi ng upuan. Nakaupo si Kyra sa tabi ng bintana at katabi niya naman ai Robin while Tintin's on their left seated near the aisle. At dahil kahapon lamang natapos ang klase at inaantok pa sila ay kapwa mga natutulog na ang nga ito matapos maiayos ang kanilang mga gamit. Samantalang sa kabilang parte naman ng eroplano ay magkatabi sina Jora at Batchi at sa likuran ng tatlo ay sina Ley at Iscelle whose probably sleeping as well.
Robin is yet to fall asleep when she remembered something. She doesn't know who the hell is her escort for tomorrow night. But her mother told her na ito daw ay ang kaniyang childhood sweetheart. Naalala niya ring dati na silang nakatira sa Pilipinas until she was seven years old bago nag-migrate ang kaniyang pamilya sa Paris. It's been a decade since she was here with him and she just suddenly remembered their story.

alawang bata ang parehas nakasuot ng magandang damit. Ang batang babae ay nakasuot ng white dress na pinili ng kaniyang Mama matapos niyang sabihin kung para saan niya ito gagamitin habang ang batang lalaki naman ay nakasuot ng black tuxedo. Nakaharap silang dalawa sa kunwaring altar na nasa loob ng kanilang bakuran and for them they are realky getting married. They are to enchanted on the moment as if they were adults as they were taking their vows.
"Antonette.. take this ring as a symbol of my love for you. This will remind us how we love and cherish each other." Saad ng batang lalaki while he's putting the ring in her finger.
"SJ.. take this ring as a sign of my never ending love for you. This will remind us how I love you with all of my life." The girl said with a giggle before smiling sweetly habang isinusuot ang singsing sa kaharap.
Mga bata pa sila but they already made promises and plans for when they became adults and both their parents are very supportive about it. Sila pa nga ang nagpagawa ng white gold nilang wedding ring that time which was designed by both of the kids.

"Bat niyo inaaway boypren ko?" Pangungompronta ng batang si Robin sa mga batang nangbubully kay SJ.
"Wag ka nga mangialam dito." Angil ng bully.
"Titigil ba kayo o susumbong ko kayo sa principal? O baka naman.. gusto niyo ng suntok?!" Mayabang na tanong ng batang babae saka ipinakita ang kaniyang kamao sa mga bullies.
"Tara na ngang umalis dito!" Tila pagsuko ng mga ito bago sila nagsialisan.
"Antapang mo talaga, Antonette." Humahangang saad ng batang lalaki.
"I'll be your bodyguard and I'll gonna be your husband when we grow up para walang makakabully sayo." Masayang saad ng batang babae.
"Okay. Then, I'll be a loving wife for you!" Masayang saad naman ng batang lalaki sabay yakap sa kaharap at halik sa pisngi nito.

Robin just laughed at how silly they are bavk when they were kids. Unconsciously, she touch the pendant of her necklace which is their wedding ring na sa ngayon ay hindi na kasya sa kaniyang daliri. She drifted off to sleep after a while.
Nang makarating sila sa airport sa Paris ay nagaabang na ang sasakyang maghahatid sa kanila sa bahay nina Robin. At nang makasakay sa limousine na kanilang sundo ay pare-parehas nanaman silang nagsitulog at saka lamang gumising when they arrived at their destination. Sinalubong sila ng Mama ni Robin mula sa pinto ng kanilang mansion.
"Hello, baby. How's the travel?" Malambing nitong tanong sa anak.
"Nakakapagod, Ma." Maikli niyang tugon dito.
"Then go ahead to your rooms at nang makapagpahinga na kayo ng mga kaibigan mo." Anito saka sila nginitian.

Tonight's Robin's debut but she never had a glance of SJ yet though he'll be her escort. She's filled with excitement because it's the first time they'll see each other after a decade. Dahil malapit nang magsimula ang party ay naroon na sa kaniyang pwesto sa taas ng hagdan si Robin while waiting for SJ. May naramdaman siyang presensiya sa kaniyang tabi at sigurado siyang ito na ang kaniyang hinihintay kaya't buong lapad aiyang ngumiti before turning her head to the person beside her.
"I miss you sooo much, SJ---- ?!" Shock and confusion is evident on her face before she reacted to the person in front of her.
"IKAW!" Sabay nilang sigaw na dalawa.
"Hoy Peppy, ang kapal naman nv mukha mong pumunta dito eh hindi ka naman invited!" Singhal agad ni Robin.
"Mas makapal ang mukha mo Tom! For your information, escort ako ng debutant. Umalis ka nga at hindi ka kaaya-aya sa paningin." Asik naman nito.
"W-what?" Gulat na gulat na saad ni Robin.
"Hey, baby." Napalingon si Robin sa Mama niya habang gulat na gulat parin.
"Nagkita na pala kayo ng childhood sweetheart mo? How sweet." Ngiting-ngiti na saad pa ng Mama niya.
"You're right. Naalala ko pa ng magpagawa sila sa atin ng mga singsing dahil ikakasal na daw sila." Tumatawang saad naman ng Tita niya. She still remember her Tita lalo na't they would often see each other kapag iniinvite ito ng Mama niya.
"You're SJ? / You're Antonette?" Magkapanabay nilanh saad with shocked faces.
"Paano nangyaring siya yun? At bakit hindi ko siya nakilala? Oh my god!" Robin said internally habang nakatitig ng masama kay Sungjong.
