Zeo: Bro, it's been a while. Long time, no see!

Xhrei: Yeah, akala ko ba 'di ka na babalik, ba't bumalik ka pa?

Zeo: Luh grabe siya sa 'kin. Pinagtabuyan na nga ako ni Uncle, at pinauwi rito tapos gan'yan pa sasabihin mo. Dapat nga ilibre mo 'ko sa Jollibee.

Xhrei: Pinagsasasabi mo dapat nga ako yung may pasalubong.

Zeo: Ay ako pa ba? Siyempre, hindi kita nakalimutan. Heto regalo ko sayo.

Xhrei: Anong gagawin ko sa keychain?

Zeo: Isabit mo sa tenga mo, ano pa ba?

Xhrei: Ewan ko sa 'yo!

Zeo: Anyways, kamusta naman kayo ni Yanna, 'di ba nag uusap na kayo?

Xhrei: Ah, si Cyvianna... Ayun, naging okay naman ang lahat. Mga one week after ko siya maikuwento sayo, nagkita kaming muli doon sa kung saan kami huling nagkita.

Zeo: Pa'no mo nalaman na siya na 'yon?

Xhrei: Naaalala niya ako, kasi kitang kita niya mukha ko at that time. Tsaka, I feel na siya 'yon. I remember her voice. 'Di ba sinabi ko sayo yun.

Zeo: Ah, okay, sabi mo e. Anyways, ano pa mga nangyari?

Xhrei: We talked. To be honest, I really felt the same way again. I was genuinely happy to meet her and to know who she really is. Napadalas na ang pagkita namin at paguusap namin simula nun. It's been more than three months already. Supposedly, I was going to meet her yesterday sana kasi one week na nang huli kaming magkita. Pero I was too late. Nakita ko siyang kausap yung guy from her childhood. They were so close to each other. I see how genuine her smile is; they were really happy together.

Zeo: Huh? Baka nag-overthink ka lang naman.

Xhrei: No, nalaman ko na, that guy is courting her. Actually, bago lang.

Zeo: Then try courting her too.

Xhrei: No. I was still trying to figure things out. I think it's not the right time.

Zeo: Hindi ka man lang ba nasaktan?

Xhrei: Medyo. But the moment I decided not to interrupt them and forget about meeting her, I finally realized I wanted to give up. I think they know each other a lot, and wala akong laban don.

Zeo: Luh siya, hindi mo pa nga kinakausap. You better make things clear for yourself. Know everything before consuming.

Xhrei: Consuming?!

Zeo: Concluding, HAHAHA, I was just messing up with you. Napakaseryoso mo e.

Xhrei: Sus. Ah basta, that would be awkward talking to her. At tsaka, the moment na nanligaw yung guy sa kanya, she accepted it wholeheartedly.

Zeo: Sino naman ang nagsabi sayo niyan?

Xhrei: I asked her cousin, Vince.

Zeo: Close, kayo?

Xhrei: Yup. Nagkataon kasi na classmate ko siya nung high school.

Zeo: What a small world, nga naman. Malay mo kayo pala talaga yung para sa isa't isa.

Xhrei: Huh? Baka tayo talaga.

Zeo: Huy, kadiri ka!

Xhrei: Mas kadiri ka, duh!

2 years later...

Zeo: Nakita ko si Yanna kasama yung guy na 'yon.

Xhrei: That's normal because they are together, and malapit na raw silang ikasal.

Zeo: Really? Matanong nga kita. Do you have regrets? What if pinursue mo siya?

Xhrei: Yes, nung una meron. Now, masaya na ako para sa kanya. That guy treated her well more that what I expected.

Zeo: Then, that means you accepted everything.

Xhrei: Yes, I fully accepted everything.

—Yanna's POV

Yanna: I slowly fell in love with him, but I don't think he feels the same way, so I stopped my delusions. Later on, I finally found the right person for me, whom I had known for so long.
