Babe, are you okay?
Parang ang tamlay mo ngayong araw.

I'm fine, babe.
May mga iniisip lang.

Studies?

Not exactly.
But yes, school's stressing me out, too.
They weren't joking when they said hell starts in third year college. 🙃

Same huhu
Our lessons are killing me!
Pero kaya natin 'to. Malapit na rin namang matapos ang sem. And then...

Hello, fourth year! Even more hellish.

Haha! You read my mind.
Pero babe, kung ano pa man 'yang iniisip mo bukod sa studies, I'm just here to listen whenever you're ready to share.
Remember when you said you want me to tell you everything, even the unpleasant stuff? Ganoon din ako sa'yo. You can tell me anything, okay? ❤️

Thank you, Cady.
You make everything more bearable.

Aww. I'd definitely say the same about you.
My happy pill, Ruel 💕

I'm grinning like an idiot here. 😁

Kilig na kilig ka talaga sa akin. 😝
Imaaaagine
Sa dinami-rami ng mga babaeng nagpapansin sa'yo, sa akin ka lang pala titiklop?
Ni hindi nga ako nagpapapansin sa'yo, ha?
Ang ganda ko talaga! 💁🏻‍♀️

Amen. 🙏🏻😁
It's not just that, though.
You're way more than a pretty face, and that's why I pursued you.

Now that you've mentioned it, I'm curious. Ako lang ba talaga ang babaeng niligawan mo? 🙈

It's true that I never had an "official" girlfriend before you, but I did try to mingle with a few other girls. Pero laging nagkakaroon ng rason para mawalan ako ng interes sa kanila.

By "mingle", do you actually mean "flirt"? 😏

Maybe... 😎

Ha! You player! 😂
But what do you mean by always losing interest in them? Grabe ka naman, van Acker. 🤪

Take my best friend, for example. Most girls, kapag nalaman nilang si Juni ang best friend ko, iba agad ang reaksyon.

Like?

They get threatened. Or annoyed.
It's as if they had it in their mind that I'm not allowed to spend time with another girl.
They don't even try to be friendly with Juni.
Kaaway agad ang tingin nila.

Haha! It's their loss. Juni is a gem.
Kaya nga thankful din ako.
Nakilala ko sila ni Vance dahil sa'yo.
Tsaka pwede ba naman 'yon na hindi ka na makikisalamuha sa ibang babae?

There you go. That's why I love you.

I love you too. 😊
Juni did mention something else as a reason why you never entered a serious relationship before, though.

Ah, yes. I bet she did.
Something about my dad, isn't it?

Yup. ☹️

Well, I don't fear getting left behind anymore.
Not by you, Cadence Castillo.
I have complete faith in you.

As you should, Ruel van Acker.
I'll always be here for you. 💕
