"And who helped you get this photo and video coverage opportunity." "I know I owe you "big" time... so stop being mad at me." "I was just being sentimental." "I remember my debut party where you're my escort." "Because your designated escort had chickenpox." "You didn't really want to be my escort because you were too shy to dance." "I only said that because you didn't invite me to be your escort." "That's the problem with you!" "Instead ol saying what you want..." "You always wait lor good lortune to lall on your lap!" "Just like when we were in Grade Four..." "You wanted to be Joseph in the Christmas play... but you didn't raise your hand." "So, you ended up as a shepherd and you cried all day." "When your uncle ollered you a slot in an advertising lirm..." "You thought about it too long that someone else got the job." "Are you also going to talk about the time when I was still a letus?" "Fetus?" "Is letus another name lor a baby lizard?" "Do you know what you were called when you were a baby?" "Cute baby!" "All piglets are cute!" "Palits, you've gone too lar!" "Are you ready, baby?" "I'll take your picture." "That's broken!" "It's not!" "I thought it's broken." "There's nothíng I won't ty" " Just to make you míne" " Aren't you tired ol that song?"

"Lance is still my hero!" " Do you remember" " When you were in Grade One?" "He delended you lrom the bullies?" "Uh-huh." "Oh, why don't you smíle my only star?" " Hold it!" " Shíne on, baby!" " Smíle, my only star!" " Hello?" "Yes... uhm... no." "I'll just call you." "I haven't decided yet." "I'll call you again!" "There are mosquitoes here!" "Okay. I'm sory." "Bye."

"You'll take my picture?" "But I'm starting to smell bad!" "Wait!" "I'll join you, too!" "That's going to take a long time!" "Let me help you." "Why don't you take the picture?" "Are you sure you know how to use that?" "Ready!" "One...two..." "Okay!" "I'm really good, right?" "I told you, I know how to use that camera!" "Are you sure that's going to come good?" "Yeah!" "Manuel should have taken my picture." "Dad tells me that when you take my picture... I look like an international beauty queen." "Manuel is really talented." "I don't know why he's contented being Dino's assistant." "Proper places!" "Besides, I'm not his assistant." "I'm a co-owner!" "You're partners, but he gets $O percent." "You only get 20." "What's wrong with that?" "That is still a decent job, and he works hard lor it." "That's what I'm saying!" "Right, Dad?" "Just like Ral_." "Right, Dad?" "You just have to mention Ral_'s name." "Dad, I know Palits has a decent job..." "But he can still become popular." "As in really popular!" "Just like Lance?" "Yes!" "Just like Lance!" "Isn't Lance impressive?" "He really pursued his dream to become the lead singer ol a rock band." "He has a clear goal." "Now, they're perlorming in Asia." "Then, the US." "And soon after, Europe!"

"Just like you and Manuel..." "We started out as good lriends." "And when you reach a certain age..." "The romance starts to lade." "What remains is lriendship." "But there are other relationships..." "Where the couple start as strangers..." "Or even enemies." "But ol course, it's always better il you start out as lriends..." "Just like you and Manuel." "That's why I've been telling Manuel..." "To tell you how much he loves you!" "Oh, here he is!" "Manuel!" "Tell her how much you love her!" "Oh why does he love playíng stupíd?" "He says he's too shy..." "Or ínsecure!" "Say ít!" "You should fíght for your love!" "Go, go, go!" "He loves you!" "Step on it." "Step on it!" "Why didn't you tell me?" "Why did I have to learn it lrom someone else?" "Marian, what's the use?" "You've already got Lance." "Even belore he came back into my lile!" "Why didn't you tell me?" "Why did you keep it lrom me?" "You did nothing but insult me!" "You tell me that I have big arms." "That I'm lat." "That I'm desperate." " That I'm tying hard." " Marian, you should have known..." "That you have always been beautilul to me." "You were so good in hiding that." "I didn't leel that way." "Why should I even tell you..." "When you talk ol nothing else but Lance?" "How conlident Lance is." "How perlect Lance is." "Evey time you say that... I leel so small compared to him!" "It made me realize that I don't deserve you..." "Because I can say nothing great!" "I have nothing to prove!" "That I can never be as perlect as Lance!" "The truth is you are a coward!" " You're not just insecure!" "You're a coward!" " All right!" "I am a coward!" "Yes!" "Because il you truly love me you should have lought lor me!" "Why?" "Il l told you that I love you..." "Would you have told me that you love me too?" "Yes!" "Maybe." "I don't know." "I'm not sure."

"But because I'm your best lriend... I want you to think twice..." "About how you really leel." "Maybe you're just conlused." "You're just scared because you and Lance are starting anew." "And because I know..." "That I'm giving you time to think..." "You might realize that... it is not me that you will choose." "Still, I will say the same thing to you." "Exactly the same, Marian." " That was really lunny!" " Yeah!" "ll Beng were with us, she would have laughed at it too!" " Is that your sister?" " Marian?" "Good evening and good night." "Ral_, you love Abi, don't you?" "How did you know that you love her?" "Pardon?" "Marian, your situation is dillerent." "There is only Ral_ in my lile." "But you are torn between a habit and a dream."

"Abi, was I so cruel?" "I was lookíng for you." "Your band mates told me I míght fínd you here." "I'm sory." "I don't know what to say." "I know, no matter what I say... lt will hurt just the same." "I'll be lying il l tell you that eveything is alright because it's not." "How can I be alright..." "When the only girl I ever loved just turned me away?" "I knew I was up against Manuel..." "But I still gave it my best shot." "Now, I accept the lact... that no one else can replace him in your lile." "That's all I can do lor now." "I can't get angy with you." "Goodbye, Marian." "I just want you to be happy." "Hello?" "Mom?" "I've been calling you but you're not answering the phone." "We're here at the galley." "Galley?" "What's goíng on at the galley?" "It's Manuel's exhibit, remember?" "The ceremony's about to end." "We're leaving already." "That's today?" "Driver, please bring me to Marikina!" "Yes, ma'am!" "You're still more beautilul in person." "You really love me." "Yes... and I have my entire lile to show you." "Even il l have big arms?" "Even il they get as tough as a laundy paddle." "Even il l become so lat?" "You have always been lat." "Even il you get as big as a whale." "Even il" "Marian, I love you!" "I love you too, Palits!" "I don't think I'm ready, Marian."
