Kakagraduate palang ngayon ni Edward at Marco sa College sa kursong Accountancy

Congratulations bro ! Com laude huh , you must be really inspired of whatever reason you told me 5  years ago , A Valedictorian and a com laude woaah looks like I really had a genius best friend here - Marco Nangingiti nyang sabi at  Sabay inom ng alam nya sa kanyang baso 

Kasalukuyang nag cecelebrate si Edward at Marco ngayon Sa bar mismo nila Marco sa kanilang pagtatapos sa koleheyo

Hey , hey are you okay ? So what's your plan after this ? - Marco

Naalala muli ni Edward ang Pag uusap nila ng Daddy nya tungkol sa kundisyon na hiningi ng Daddy ni Maymay sakanila

Kundisyon anak, na instead of arranged marriage , you have to make her daughter fell in love with you ..and try to like her daughter too.  - Daddy Kevin

Fell in love with me ? - Edward

Tony wants to make sure that her daughter will be married to the right guy , and when he knew that you and Maymay are best of friends , he ask us to , you know somewhat consider the arranged marriage but in a different way , but of course you still had your choice if you want to accept it or not

A choice ? - Edward

Tanong lang ang nagagawang isagot ni Edward sa lahat ng eksplinasyon ng tatay nya sakanya ...

Yes a choice , he wants to test your determination for this , accepting this offer will not be really that easy , Pero If you don't want to do this Nak , you can always say know and we will call Tony to look for another right man for her daughter -  Daddy Kevin

I want to do it dad- Edward

Nagkatinginan ang mag asawa ,  Nagulat sila Kevin at Cathy sa naging disisyon ng anak  ...

But , Son  .. I thought .. You don't - Mommy Cathy..

I really want to do it mom - Edward

It's not that easy Son , saying a yes to this is really worst than you expected .. - Daddy Kevin

What do you mean Dad ? - Edward

When you say yes  to this , you have to give up your own dream. You told us that you want to pursue your passion on the Arts in college and have your own gallery in the future right ?  - Daddy Kevin

Yeeaah , Dad , But ... How will it affect my decision on accepting the offer of Maymay's Father ? - Edward

Nagkatinginan muna si Kevin at Cathy Bago magsalita si  Kevin...

His offer was ...  You have to took accountancy in college and Graduate as a valedictorian and a com laude in college and high school ,, .. You know for the company's sake in the future .. - Daddy Kevin

Yes , Son , that's his challenge to test your determination ,are you up for the challenge ?- Daddy Kevin

Matagal na nag isip si Edward bago sumagot sa ama..

Yes.  Dad , I want to do it - Edward

Naputol ang pag alala ni Edward sa nakaraan sa pag pukaw ni Marco sa atensyon nya ..

Hey. , bro ? still with me ? - Marco

Yeah, yeah ,you were saying ? - Edward

Blah blaa , still her , huh ? - Marco

Her ? What do you mean ? - Edward

Maymay , sya lang naman ang dahilan lage kung bat ka natutulala ng ganyan , nagtataka nga ako sayo bro , I know ,  you are deeply in love with her. Pero bakit sa loob ng limang taon wala kang ginawang move to pursue her ? Ikaw din baka maunahan ka , haha - Marco

She's still single - Edward

Pero ang tanong wala pa bang nagpapatibok ng puso nya ? Ewan ko sainyo , you don't even dare to talk to her pag kausap ko sya Sa phone. - Marco

Kahit Sa US na pinagpatuloy ni Maymay ang pag aaral ay di sya nawalan ng communication Sa mga kaibigan nya Sa pilipinas maliban kay Edward na limang taon na silang di naguusap ,

Teka nga pala  , honestly matagal ko na tong gustong itanung

Sabay akbay Sa kaibigan ..

If you say so .. Haha , by the way , I have a good news for you - Marco

Good news ?? - Edward

Yes ! Because , because , Maymay is coming on my birthday next month.  She said , she'll be here in the Philippines by then.  Kaya makakadalo sya Sa birthday party ko - Marco

Nagulat si Edward sa balita ng kaibigan ..

Is is that for real , bro  ? - Edward

Yes , so just prepare yourself , this is your chance bro , don't ever  waste it , -  Marco

I wouldn't bro , I promise ... - Edward

At nabuhay ang kaba Sa dibdib ni Edward Sa napipintong pagkikita nila ng babaeng minahal nya ng palihim Sa malayo ..
