Their wedding ceremony is ended with their message of gratitude towards their loved ones and their friends who were with them through the years. They are at the wedding reception when they said words, especially to Sir Pepe, Ara's former boss, who was her mentor for years. And to Lance, Patrick's bestfriend, that despite their troubles, he helped him realized how to value love towards someone.

As the visitors get departed, they both run towards the wedding car, as the night gets deepen, that they both get excited for their first honeymoon after the wedding, now that they are already official, as husband and wife.

They teased each other inside the car, tickling with their bodies, seemingly like a child who have fun playing games. They arrived at Ara's house, while still giggling as they went out from the car.

Patrick noticed Ara is getting tired. He carries her until they reached Ara's bedroom.

While inside the bedroom, Ara is removing her high - heeled shoes when she noticed Patrick operated the stereo, inserted a vinyl cd inside. As the music played, she immediately recognized it is a song by Jose Mari Chan, entitled Radio Romance.

The music of love that sings forever is on your radio
Romancing you and me here and wherever you may be

Where the love comes every minute, on your Radio Romance

You an wish upon a star now, 'cause love is not too far now,

On Radio Romance

While the music played, Patrick hold her hands and make a romantic dance with her, a dance that jives with the soft beat of the music. Patrick holds her waist while she place her arms at his shoulder. They feel every line of the song, that relates to their love story, a story that she once a radio DJ while Patrick is an avid listener. Then they have a conversation, a confession of love.

"I dedicate this song, to you. I remember once I was an avid listener, of a DJ who captivates my heart. I cannot forget those times when I choose to listen to you over the radio rather than searching for any girl. Listening to you every night makes my day complete and feeling loved. Until I realized I loved you even before I was able to meet you. Then one night, I found a girl, who has such a soulful voice that captivates my heart once more. I fall in love with her voice, that am desperate to meet her. Then a day came, when I found her crying at the shore, I wished to comfort her and give the best care that I can give, but it ended with the most embarrassing thing for me, I took chance with that girl, which later, I discovered later it was you, the DJ that I loved. Meeting you at the radio station is the best moment of my life, that I finally meet the person that I loved. And I feel so glad that you said thank you with a loving embrace, accepting me as part of your life. I cannot forget how happy you are receiving those flowers and chocolates which I give to you, which makes me complete since then. We have been together for a year, filled with good memories. You give so much to me that I cannot find better than that, until one night, I made the biggest mistake of my life. I got tempted by my ex, then I lose you for years. I failed you. I failed a girl who never fails me, but I still ended up failing her. Losing you makes me feel you will no longer go back to me for life, but I insist on still believing and make a wish to the Lord that one day, you will get back to my arms. But God never fails me, though I make a suffering for years. God granted me my wish. That you went back to our country and have allowed me to meet you once again. You are so kind that you still allow me to at least be a friend to you. I feel grateful then, especially when you hire me as a Manager, which allows me to care for you once again. But I never knew until your mom told me that you experienced a lot of suffering, that almost take your own life. We lost our son, because of me. You were suffering from depression because of me. You almost died twice because of me. I messed up your life but you still accept me. I will not stop to say sorry to you for all of my life and will say thank you everyday that you still accept me, and still choose me as your husband and to spend your life with me as well. I love you everyday and I will take good care of you and I will do anything to make you happy and safe. This is my promise to you, witnessed by God who makes this possible for both of us. I love you honey!" Patrick shed out his tears as he said those words emotionally, how happy and grateful he is that he already fulfilled the happiest moment in his life, to finally have her for the rest of his life.
