Cadence
Nakauwi ka na, babe? 😊

Ruel
Not yet, babe. May lakad pa ako.

Cadence
Oh. Where are you headed to?
Hindi mo ako sinama. 🥺

Ruel
Someone's being clingy. 😏
It's not somewhere you want to be, Cady.

Cadence
Hmm, okay. Mukhang may secret ka, ah. 😛

Ruel
Well, we're still allowed to keep little secrets, aren't we? We only promised to tell each other the important stuff. 😉

Cadence
Fine. Keep your LITTLE secret. 🤪
I'm really happy that we're okay now, babe.
The last two days were the saddest for me. Nasanay na akong araw-araw, kausap ka. Seener ka pala kapag galit, Mr. van Acker! 😭

Ruel
I'm sorry for reacting that way, Cady. I just tend to retreat whenever I'm mad or disappointed. I figured silence is better than saying hurtful words.

Cadence
I'll give you that. Ako rin naman, mas pinipili kong manahimik kesa magsabi ng hindi maganda. We can't take back words once we've spoken them. Still, I hope to never receive the silent treatment from you again. 🥺

Ruel
Alam mo namang hindi rin kita matitiis. 🙃

Cadence
Aww. Back at you. 😘
Anyway, I can't believe we had our first misunderstanding because of my silly ex-boyfriend. 😪

Ruel
And I'm pretty sure it won't be the last.
I don't want to sound like a downer, but misunderstandings are part of a relationship, aren't they? You and I are bound to make mistakes along the way.

Cadence
It's scary, isn't it?
Countless relationships have come to an end because of a mistake.

Ruel
We'll not let ours go the same way, Cady.
I know I have a lot to work on to be the man you deserve. But I'll make it a point to always choose you over any mistake or misunderstanding. I just hope you'll be patient with me as I improve myself.

Cadence
Of course! 🥺
And will you, in turn, be patient with me as well? Ang dami ko ring kailangang i-improve sa sarili ko, Ruel. For one, I'm really used to dealing with my problems alone. Must be because I'm an only child. 🤷🏻‍♀️
Only now, I need to get used to the idea that you're already there, willing to shoulder those problems with me.

Ruel
Well, that's what a boyfriend is for, among other things. 😎
Hey, I need to go offline for a while, babe.
Nandito na ako sa pupuntahan ko.
May aasikasuhin lang ako.

Cadence
Oh. Then let's just talk again later.
Message me when you're home, okay?

Ruel
Of course. I love you, Cady.

Cadence
I love you too. ❤️
