~I wanna make you smile whenever you’re sad
Carry you around when your arthritis is bad
Oh all I wanna do is grow old with you~
–Hindi ko mapigilang mapangiti habang pinagmamasdan ko si kellin. Ang ganda ng boses niya, which is gustong gusto ko sa isang lalake. Bihasa din siya sa pagtugtog ng gitara. Lagi niyang ginagawa 'to simula nang payagan ko siyang ligawan ako.
"Kahit tayo na, hindi pa rin ako magsasawang haranahin ka." Kinilig naman ako sa sinabi niya.
'Sana hindi ka lang hanggang salita, Kellin.'

~I’ll get your medicine when your tummy aches
Build you a fire if the furnace breaks
Oh it could be so nice, growing old with you~
–Talaga ngang tinupad niya ang sinabi niyang hindi  daw siya magsasawang haranahin ako. Kahit paulit-ulit lang ang kantang kinakanta niya ay hindi ako magsasawang pakinggan siya.
"Happy 3rd anniversary, love. I love you."
"Happy 3rd anniversary din. I love you too."

~I’ll miss you
Kiss you
Give you my coat when you are cold
Need you
Feed you
Even let ya hold the remote control~
–"I love you forever, my Iris." He kissed my forehead.
"I love you too, my Kellin."
"Daddy, lagi mo nalang hawak yang gitara mo. Hindi ka ba napapagod na haranahin si mommy?"
"Rain, baby? If you love someone, you will never get tired of doing things that will make her/him happy." Kellin smiled at me.
Namamangha kong tinignan ang mag-ama ko. What I'm seeing now is a priceless view.

~So let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink
Put you to bed when you’ve had too much to drink
I could be the man who grows old with you~
–"Thank you sa panghaharana mo, Mr. Quinn. Nag-abala ka pang makipag-vc sakin para lang dyan hahaha." Hindi ko maitago ang pinaghalong kilig at tuwang nararamdaman ko.
"You're welcome, Mrs. Quinn. Btw, next Sunday na ang uwi ko. I'm so excited to see the four of you."
" Really? That's good. Namimiss kana ng mga angels natin at namimiss na rin kita."
"I miss you too. Don't worry, uuwi na ang engineer ng buhay mo."
"I love you." I kissed the camera and he did the same too.
"I love you more."

~I wanna make you smile whenever you’re sad
Carry you around when your arthritis is bad
Oh all I wanna do is grow old with you~
–"Stop crying, my love. Kinasal lang si rain but that doesn't change the fact that she's still our baby princess. She will visit us if she have free time. "
Kellin is trying to calm me. He's holding his guitar, as usual. Nalulungkot lang ako kase nabawasan na kami sa bahay. I'll miss our baby princess.

~I’ll miss you
Kiss you
Give you my coat when you are cold
Need you
Feed you
Even let ya hold the remote control~
–"Lolo, naman. Please wag na po kayong makulit. Sabi po ng nurse wag daw po kayong gagalaw ng sobra."
"Please, let me. Pinangako ko sa lola niyo na hindi ako titigil na haranahin siya." I'm trying my best to hold my tears. Kahit na nahihirapan nang magsalita si Kellin ay pinagpipilitan niya pa rin.
"You don't have to do this anymore. We're already old." I said, pero nagpumilit pa rin siya.
~So let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink
Put you to bed when you’ve had too much to drink
I could be the man who grows old with you~
–Mabagal at paos na ang boses niya. Hindi na rin buo ang tunog ng gitara. But he still manage to sing and smile at me. Even in his dying stage, he didn't broke his promise. That was the last time that he serenade me. That was the last time that I hear his voice.
~I wanna grow old with you~
–'Good bye, my love. I'm happy that we grew old together. Wait for me there, we will continue our endless love for each other.'
