Saturday (7:00 am)
Richard was on his car, outside Dawn's house.
"Good Morning! I'm here at the gate." He started a call.
"Huh? What are you doing here?" Dawn asked him panicking.
"Just visiting you and Rachel. wrong timing ba ako? aalis kayo?"
"No, hindi naman. Ang aga mo lang kasi, and I'm still on my pajamas."
"Ah edi papasukin mo ako, tapos tulog tayo ulit."
"Baliw ka, sige na hintayin mo na lang ako. Baba na ako agad."
She went downstairs as fast as she could and let Richard went inside.
"Good Morning! Ang ganda padin kahit naka pjs lang." Richard said while smiling.
"Sorry ah, I don't usually greet my guess ng naka pjs lang eh. Kaso ayoko namang paghintayin ka ng matagal sa labas kaya hindi na ako nakapag bihis." She explained.
"Okay lang, maganda ka padin naman."
"Thanks. Want some coffee?" She offered.
"Sure. Si Rachel pala?"
"Nako nasa taas pa, natutulog."
"Tulog pa pala ang binibisita ko. Kayo lang ba dito ngayon?"
"Oo kami lang." She said putting the coffee at the table, then she began to cook.
Richard reached for his coffee and drink a bit. His eyes, wide open as he felt the strong and creamy taste of the coffee.
~Flashback
It was a lovely morning, Richard was still on his bed when Dawn went inside.
"Good Morning Babe, breakfast na tayo." She said handling the tray as she sat beside Richard.
"Wow breakfast in bed, thank you Love. Napaka sweet mo talaga."
"Ako pa ba, oh ito tikman mo yung coffee masarap yan. Ako nag timpla nyan."
"Salamat." He said as he drink his coffee. "Masarap nga Love. Ibang iba ang lasa nito sa lahat ng natikman kong kape. Kahit coffee shop matatalo mo dahil dito sa timpla mo."
"Grabe naman yun babe, pero thank you dahil nagustuhan mo."
"Oo naman Love sobrang sarap. Sa akin mo lang ititimpla yung ganito ha."
"Oo naman sayo lang."
"Oh subuan na kita Love." He said as he gave her a waffle. He then get his coffee and finished it.
"Ano ba yan babe, punasan mo nga yang bibig mo. Para kang bata kung uminom."
"Ikaw na po mag punas Love." He said pouting.
"Parang bata." She rolled her eyes. She get a tissue and started wiping his mouth when he suddenly kissed her. "Bakit mo ko hinalikan?"
"Tagal mo mag punas eh, tignan mo nawala naman diba. Masarap ba?"
"Bastos ka!"
~End of flashback
"Huy okay ka lang?" Dawn asked him confused.
"Ako? Oo naman." He replied.
"Eh bakit ganyan yung mukha mo?"
"Wala may naalala lang ako."
"Ano naman yun at bakit ganyan ka makangiti?"
"Wala ka bang naaalala sa kape na ito?" He asked her giving her a naughty look.
Dawn did not get it at first, but when she come to realize what he's talking about she became shocked.
"Oh ano naalala mo din?" He asked while laughing a bit.
"Ano ka ba Richard! Sa dami dami ng pwedeng maalala, ayun pa talaga ang naalala mo ha!"
"Kaya mas naging masarap yung kape eh dahil dun. Isa pa nga patikim ulit ako." He said and point his lips.
Dawn didn't know what to feel. She wanted to be mad at him but she can't help herself but to laugh with his silly actions.
"Uy natatawa, gusto mo kong halikan ah."
"Hindi ah. Baka ikaw."
"Oo bakit, papayag ka ba?"
"Syempre hindi, may asawa ka na eh."
"So kung wala papayag ka?"
"Wag ka ngang ganyan sa asawa mo."
"Ayan ka na naman, bakit kilala mo ba ang asawa ko?" He asked, stopping himself to laugh, because of the fact that he doesn't have a wife.
"Si Andy diba, akala mo hindi ko kilalala no."
"Si Andy?!" He almost shouted. "She's not..."
"Good Morning po!" Rachel interrupted getting both of their attention.
"Good Morning Rach, gising ka na pala. Oh tamang tama tapos na yung niluluto ko. Let's eat na." Dawn said as she started to prepare their breakfast. "Ikaw din Rich saluhan mo na kami."

Paris, France (2:00 pm)
Rowell was busy on their meeting and did not even notice that his phone was ringing. It was Dawn who's calling him.
After couple of hours, they ended the meeting. Rowell went back to his office and checked his phone.
"Hindi ko na naman siya nasagot." He said on his mind.
He dialed her number again but she did not answer. He tried it a few more times but ended up texting her.
To: Dawn
Sorry hindi ko nasagot yung calls mo, I was having my last meeting at hindi ko napansin ang tawag mo. Call me whenever you're free, mahal ko. Sorry ulit, I love you.
He waited for her reply but time had passed and still no response.
His door suddenly opened and revealed Jenna, their secretary.
"Good afternoon sir, gaya po ng bilin sa akin ni Ms. Dawn na iupdate kayo with your schedules po, wala na po kayong meeting this day. But you have an invitation po to..."
"Jenna, pa-cancel ako ng lahat. I'll ask my nephew to be in charge."
"Okay po sir, noted po."
"Tell our clients that my Nephew will be the one who's going to be in charge for the meantime."
"And if they ask po about you, do I have to say anything specific po ba?"
"Tell them, I'm off for an important meeting of my life."
"Noted po sir!"
