INT. ZEUS' CAR — 11:25 PM

Oh my god, Zeus! Are you alright?

I'm fine, Dione.

Let me see—babe! Why did you slap my hand away?

Don't touch me. And don't call me that.

Ano'ng problema mo!? Okay naman tayo kanina! And tell me, who is that psycho girl that just slapped you?

None of your business.

Zeus! Are you cheating on me again!?

Again? Don't make me laugh. You've been cheating on me for months! Let's stop pretending that we're okay. We're not!

Sabi mo, aayusin natin. Zeus, tumigil na ako. At pinatawad na kita. All is fair, right?

Fair? Damn, what do you know about being fair, huh!? Ginago mo ako ng ilang buwan tapos sasabihin mo, patas na tayo? That's not how this works!

So, ano'ng gusto mo!? Tapusin na natin? You can't leave me!

Actually, I can. When I told you that I met up with a stranger, I should've ended things right there.

I'm interested in her, Dione.

Putang ina! I can't believe this! Ipagpapalit mo ako sa tao na isang gabi mo lang nakilala? What if she's a whore!? May sakit pa siguro 'yon!

Don't even fucking go there! She's probably more decent than you!

At talagang ipagtatanggol mo!? Bakit ha, Zeus, ano bang kaya niyang gawin na hindi pa natin nagawa!? Gaano ba siya kagaling sa kama!?

Ikaw nga, tell me, ano bang nagawa natin na ginawa mo rin sa lalaki mo, Dione?

You're a fucking asshole!

I learned from the best. You cheated first, remember? You taught me how to be a sly. Kaya wala kang karapatang sumbatan ako.

We're over!

Oh, but I thought I have made that clear five minutes ago? When I said that I'm interested in another girl.

Go to hell! May araw ka rin, Zeus. You'll have a taste of your own medicine.

You're impossible, Dione. Ikaw pa talaga ang galit? After all that you've done?

And don't worry, hell already reserved a place for the both of us. Mauuna ka lang.

Fuck you!

Baba.

You're going to make me walk!?

I don't care. Baba sabi!

Ugh! I hate you!

At least, we're on the same page. We're cheaters, and we both hate each other.

Now go. We're done here.
