INT. ZEUS' CAR — 10 PM

What are those basket of flowers for? Sa back seat?

It's for your dad.

We're going?

Yeah, tonight. Daan tayo bago tayo mag-dinner. I know you'd love that. Paalam na rin tayo.

Ano'ng ipapaalam natin sa daddy ko?

That I'm courting you. And I hope that he'll trust me to take care of you while he's up there and you're here.

Zeus...

Oh, what's with the sudden hand holding? Nilalamig ba kamay mo, Hera?

No, silly. Thank you.

Huh?

For giving respect to my dad even though he's now gone.

He's still your dad. Isa pa, that's the protocol and I want to do this right.

I'm sure he'll like you.

Baka sungitan din ako ng daddy mo.

Bakit naman?

Ang sungit ng anak niya, eh.

Sira ulo! Eh, syempre. I don't want to look easy.

You were never easy to me, Hera. And I'd do it all over again if I have to.

Kahit ilang beses kita itaboy palayo?

Kahit ilang beses pa, sa'yo ko pipiliing bumalik.
