Meanwhile, Laura and Allona are restless because it's been more than two hours and their spouses have not arrived home yet.

"Saan ba kasi ang meeting nung mga yun at hanggang ngayon eh wala pa." Allona asked.

"Nagtext na sa akin si Victor, pabalik na daw sila." Laura said.

"Para saan kaya ang usapan na yun? I am so intrigue." Allona said.

"Same here, pero konting tiis na lang, Sis. Parating na rin naman sila." Laura said.

"Si Mama hindi pa ba tumatawag, bakit kaya hanggang ngayon wala pa sya? Baka maunahan pa sya nung dalawa." Allona said.

"Tawagan ko kaya ulit. Baka sobrang nalibang sa ka-date nya at nakalimutan ang pool party ng mga apo nya." Laura said.

"Oo nga, baka this time sumagot na sya." Allona said

Laura quickly dials Aurora's number and after three rings, her mother-in-law gets on the line. "Hello, Laura." Aurora said.

"Ma, where are you? Kanina ka pa hinahanap ng mga apo mo." Laura said.

"I am on my way home. Do you need anything?" Aurora replied.

"Wala naman, Ma. Si Carrie kasi, kanina ka pa hinahanap at si Trixie. According to her, baka naiwan si Trixie sa loob ng room mo." Laura said.

"Trixie is in my room, naiwan nya when she sleeps over in my room last night. Go ahead ang get it in my room." Aurora said.

"Wag na, Ma. Hintayin ka na lang naming bumalik." Laura said.

"Baka magtampo si Carrie sa akin kasi ikinulong ko si Trixie sa room ko. Alam nyo namang ayaw nung humiwalay sa favorite doll nya. Sige na, I am giving you permission to enter my room. Hindi pa naman ako nagpapalit ng password ng room ko." Aurora said.

"Okay po, Ma. Thanks" Laura uttered.

"You're welcome, my dear. Siguro mga thirty minutes pa before we reach home. Medyo traffic eh." Aurora said.

"Sige po, Ma. We'll see you later." Laura said before she hungs up.

"Anong sabi?" Allona asked.

"Pauwi na raw, medyo traffic lang kaya mga thirty minutes pa before she reaches home." Laura said. "Punta lang ako sa room nya, Sis. Kukunin ko lang si Trixie at kanina pa nakasimangot ang little girl ko." Laura said.

"Alright, you know naman her password, right?" Allona said.

"Yes, hindi pa naman daw sya nagpapalit ng password." Laura said.

Laura proceeds to Aurora's room. She smiles upon entering because she sees how organized the Monteiro matriarch, and she is very certain to whom Victor got the behavior of being very organized. She got Carrie's doll on Aurora's bed when she noticed few bottles on the side tables. She got curious so she check on what are those bottles. Only to find out that those are medicine. She immediately took a picture of it and leave the room as if nothing happens.
