Den woke up on the feeling that somebody is staring at her and when she open her eyes, she saw the face she's been longing to wake up to every morning.

Aly: Ahmmm. Goodmorning? Hindi sure na bati sa kanya ni Aly habang hinahaplos ang batok nito.

Den can't hide her smile because she finds it really cute to see Aly being tentative like that.

Aly: What?! Why are you smiling like that?

Den: Nothing Aly. Haha.

Aly: Oh okay. So ahmm. Ahh, Den kasi ano eh. Kasi ahmm. She really can't form her words. Hindi nya alam kung pano nya sasabihin kay Den ang sitwasyon nila. Actually, sya mismo ay hindi nya alam ang mangyayari at kung ano ang gagawin nya.

Den: Aly if it's about what happened last night don't worry alam ko naman na lasing ka lang nun kaya nagawa at nasabi mo yung mga bagay na yun. Whatever your decision or whatever happens maiintindihan ko yun Aly. you don't need to pressure yourself okay? She held Aly's face while saying those words. Masakit man sa kalooban nya na isipin na ang mga nangyari kagabi ay dala lang ng impluwensya ng alak kay Aly, ayaw nyang mag-assume at umasa dahil lalo lang syang masasaktan.

Aly: Look Den, what I've told you last night is true. I may be in the influence of alcohol pero alam ko ang ginagawa ko kagabi. It's just that we are in a complicated situation, she pause a little bago ituloy ang sasabihin nya, kami pa ni Maddie. Napatungo sya sa sinabi nya. Mahal na Mahal kita Den pero minahal ko na rin si Maddie. As much as possible I don't want to hurt her.

Those words struck Den's heart. Pinaghandaan nya naman ang bagay na to. Yung piliin ni Aly si Maddie pero seems like you really can never prepare yourself because the actual pain is just too much to take.

Den: I-i know Aly. That's what I've told you awhile ago right? Kahit anong maging desisyon mo maiintindihan ko and I will gladly accept it. Wala akong karapatan magreklamo sa mga nangyayari because it's all my fault in the first place. She's trying her best na wag umiyak.

Aly: Shhhh. Kalimutan na natin yun Den okay? Hindi lang ikaw ang may pagkukulang. Siguro I also fail to make you feel more secure of my love kaya nag doubt ka. I'm sorry kung you have to go through those insecurities. I just realized na kaya punong puno ako ng galit noon ay dahil galit ako sa sarili ko because I wasn't able to protect you from the criticizing eyes of the people and the society. I should've been more sensitive to your feelings so that I know what you're feeling. All those years na wala ka naniwala ako na it's just your fault. Pinaniwala ko ang sarili ko na ako ang biktima, I fail to realize na sobra ka rin nasasaktan at sobrang hirap din ng pinagdaanan mo. Sana mas inintindi kita. Sana hinanap kita para maayos pa natin ang relasyon natin instead of drowning myself in pain. I let the pain and anger consume me. I'm sorry Den, I wish I could turn back time na I can freely hug you, kiss you and cuddle with you whenever I want. But it's a different story now, and that breaks my heart because no matter how much I want to be with you, I can't, because there are  people that will get hurt. I wish in another lifetime, I will have the chance again to love you and to be loved by you and by that time I'll make sure I'll do things right. And I will never let anyone ruin what we have. Aly is crying the whole time while she's saying those words.

Dennise is also crying while listening to Aly. Alam nyang totoo ang sinasabi nito na Mahal sya nito pero hindi nya kayang maging masaya dahil ito din ang hudyat na hindi na talaga sila pwede para sa isa't isa.
