"Pero ayoko. Ayoko nito. Not now"
"T-Teka Tiffany!!"
Tumakbo na lang siya bigla palayo.
I didn't even have the time to react.
Gusto din naman kita. Bakit ayaw mo?
Oo. Gusto ko siya. Mahal ko na nga ata eh.
Kaso... natotorpe ako.
Ewan ko. Umuurong ang dila ko.
Pagdating sa babaeng prangka, sa babaeng matalino, sa babaeng magulo, sa babaeng kapareho ko ng gusto sa mga bagay, nahulog ako.
Ewan ko. Hindi ko alam.
I wouldn't have done anything I did for her if I don't care, like or even love her. Hindi ako ganung tao.
Pero bakit ayaw niya?
Humahanap pa lang ako ng tyempo hinarangan na kaagad niya? Bakit?
Hindi pwede to. Hindi pwedeng ganito na lang. Hindi pwedeng sa isang pag-ayaw niya, aayaw na din ako. Hindi pwede. Hindi ko pa nasusubukan, hindi ko pa nagagawan ng paraan. Wag mo naman sanang pigilan ang bagay na magsisimula pa lang Tiffany.
"Dad?"
"Yo?"
"Anong yo?"
"Eto naman. Edi bakit?"
"Uhm..."
"Ano?"
"How did you court mom?"
"Ooohhhhh my son's gonna court someone huh?"
"Dad. Just... answer my question"
"Ohh well. Hindi ko alam kung ligaw yun pero... I made her feel it everyday. I tell her I love her every single day. I show her how much I like her kahit ayaw niya saken dati"
"Ehh pano kung sabi niya gusto niya ako pero ayaw niya?"
"Gusto pero ayaw?"
"I like, no I think I love her but she told me, no"
"Teka"
My dad left all of a sudden at narinig ko na lang na bigla siyang sumigaw
"Jecaaaaa"
"Dad! Why call mom?!"
"Aba di ko na alam isasagot sayo. Baka alam ng mama mo ehh"

"Hey, baby are you okay?"
"Ma..."
"How's my baby girl?"
"Ma... I think I am liking someone"
"Really?! Who's the lucky guy?" Mom asked me happily.
"Jimmy ma."
"Wait. The guy you've been telling me about?"
I nodded as a response
"Oh ehh bakit ganyan itsura mo? Di ba dapat masaya ka if you're liking someone?"
"I am happy ma, but"
"But?"
"I'm scared"
"Scared of what?"
"Of love"
"Why?"
"I've seem you cry because of it mama. Baka... baka mangyari din saken yun. Baka di ko kayanin ma"
"Tiffany..."
"I know dad did everything para makabawi and I know everything's fine now pero, I don't think I can handle that kind of pain mama"
"Tiffany... baby. Listen."
"Can I just stop liking him? Parang di ko pa kaya ma"
"Tiffany... nobody's ready for love. If your heart beats, it beats. And pain is a part of it. Pero Tiffany. Hindi mo pa nasusubukan, don't you want to try the feeling of being in love?"
"Pano kung hindi niya ako gusto ma?"
"Love is not defined by it being reciprocated but it's how you show it. And how'd you know he doesn't like you? Sinabi mo ba sa kanya nararamdaman mo?"
"Yeah"
"Really?! Anong sabi?!"
"I don't know. Umalis ako agad ehh"
"Anak. Talk to him okay? You guys need that"
"But..."
"Tiffany. Follow your heart. Let it be. Oo nasaktan ako noon but look at us now? Pain is all worth it when you're with the right man"
"Really?"
"Yeah. Dear, don't fear about something na wala pa. Okay?"
"Hindi ko alam ma..."
"My baby's all grown up now"
"Ma naman."
"I can't believe you told him you like him straight away"
"Ehh lumabas na lang sa bibig ko ma ehh"
"That means, that's what your heart feels Tiffany"
"Hi babies!!" Biglang pasok ni dada sa room ko
"Serious talks?"
"Oo. Tungkol sayo love"
"Saken? Why?"
"Ma..."
"Ang gwapo mo masyado, hindi ko na matake hahaha"
"Grabe ka saken baby ha"
"What? Hahaha"
"Love you po!!"
"Love you too! Magbihis ka nga dun ambaho mo!"
"May reward ako pag mabango?"
"Pag-isipan ko"
"Mama! Dada!! Ano ba yan!!!"
"Hahaha maligo ka na Drew!!"
"Reward ko ah?"
"Oo na leche!"
"Yes! Walang bawian! Baby, close your doors okay?"
"Dada!!"
