Miss ma'am, what's that article? May paandar si Engineer sa airport!

Aphrodite Pangilinan-Sotto
Chismis agad? Wala bang 'I miss you, best friend' muna?

Jamie Zobel
I miss you, best friend! Now spill!

Aphrodite Pangilinan-Sotto
Bumabawi sa mga pagkukulang niya. That's why he's being extra sweet.

Jamie Zobel
Baka nakakaramdam na nagloloko ka. Hahaha. Nagloko or nagloloko? 😂

Aphrodite Pangilinan-Sotto
JAMIE!!!

Jamie Zobel
How's the other engineer ba? Still into him?

Aphrodite Pangilinan-Sotto
Why not? He's a good distraction when Sid's not here.

Jamie Zobel
So ginagamit mo lang? What game are you playing now?

Aphrodite Pangilinan-Sotto
I'm just enjoying things.

Jamie Zobel
Taray may stress ball ka in the form of a person. Sana all!

Jamie Zobel
Ingat ka. Baka bumalik sa'yo 'yan.

Aphrodite Pangilinan-Sotto
Jamie, mahal ko pa si Sid, okay? But sometimes, he makes me sad. And we get boring. Like a routine. Aalis siya, babalik, aalis na naman. He's always busy.

Jamie Zobel
In short, kaya ka nabaliw do'n sa isang engineer? Dahil nadidiligan ka? And because he's always available?

Aphrodite Pangilinan-Sotto
JAMIE YOUR DAMN MOUTH! Para kang 'di Zobel magsalita!

Jamie Zobel
I hate being too formal. Haha. Isa pa, hindi ba totoo naman?

Aphrodite Pangilinan-Sotto
Fine. But that's it! It's nothing serious. Sex lang, masaya lang.

Jamie Zobel
Madam, may singsing ka sa daliri mo nakakaloka ka!

Jamie Zobel
Mukha lang akong kunsitidora pero ayoko 'yang paandar mo ha!

Aphrodite Pangilinan-Sotto
Magsasawa rin ako.

Jamie Zobel
Gaga ka! Dinala mo nga sa Ilocos!

Aphrodite Pangilinan-Sotto
It wasn't my fault that he's assigned on the project too!

Jamie Zobel
'Di kita sinisisi, girl! Pero tinutuloy mo pa eh 'di choice mo na 'yan.

Aphrodite Pangilinan-Sotto
I'll be careful.

Jamie Zobel
Ingat ka. When the fire's too hot, it'll burn you.

Aphrodite Pangilinan-Sotto
It won't if I put it out first. 😉
