"You get all worked up so early in the morning." "Hello," "Dondi" "Auntie, where are you?" "I'm out jogging." "I'll go home after to take a shower." "Then I'll have breakfast with Vivian." "See you in the office." "So, what time did you come home?" "Early." "Yes, early in the morning." "What's with you, Anna?" "You know that today is your first day of training at the office." "Look at you." "Can I not scold you anymore?" "Anna, you're no longer a kid." "I'll do it and I can." "I'm not a kid anymore." "Dondi, has my chauffeur arrived?" "Check if he still got the pink eye." "I don't want to get infected by him." "I can't afford to get sick." "Don't worry, Auntie." "Bacteria that cause pink eye are not airborne." "So you won't get infected even if Larry stared at you the whole time." "Who were you out with last night?" "You had a date, huh?" "No, I didn't." "It was an all-girl night out." "Dad,your phone." "Hello, Chelly." "Good morning, Sir." "Just to remind you of your appointments." "You have a 10;00AM with Mr. Dom at the country club for the contracts you need to sign." "And then, a luncheon meeting here with Mr. Ang regarding the Singapore project." "Got it." "Thank you, Chelly." "Hey, you better get moving." "They're waiting for you at the office."

"She wants the audio system rental down to 600 dollars." "What?" "600 dollars?" "The year is now 201 5, not 1 995." "Rates have already gone up now." "Hey, I can hear you!" "How dare you laugh at me." "You thought I can't hear you?" "There's a monster!" "Cora, where are you?" "What happened to you?" "How come you were driving so fast?" "Boss, I didn't see her." "She appeared out of nowhere." "Where is she?" "Check under the car." "What did you do to my friend?" "Oh it's a monster, alright." "What happened to you?" "Are you alright?" "Will you help me first before you ask me if I'm alright?" "Help her." "Be careful." "Ouch." "Sis." "It hurts." "Ouch!" "Are you sure you're alright?" "Look, you were jogging without looking where you're going." "Who's this guy?" "He's the owner of the car that almost killed you." "Why you!" "Why would you run over a jogger like me?" "Excuse me." "This is a road for vehicles." "Who told you can jog in the middle of the road without looking out for vehicles?" "Hey dude, this is a private subdivision." "And I pay my association dues here." "Whatever." "This is still a road for vehicles." "Even if I lie on my back on all the roads here, you don't have a say because you're just passing through here." "You're trespassing!" "I'm not trespassing." "I have a car pass sticker to this subdivision." "I can freely pass through here." "You're the one mindlessly jogging without looking where you're going." "Ouch." "Oh my." "I was the one who almost got ran over," "I'm the mindless one," "And you're the one angry at me?" "You're making a scene." "It's embarrassing." "And so tacky." "No," "I don't care!" "Suit yourself!" "Domeng, let's go." "Where are we headed?" "C'mon." "Try to run me over!" "Well, are you tough, dude?" "C'mon." "Try to run me over!" "Get out of the way!" "We can't play mahjong on Sundays if you're not around anymore." "No!" "Let's go." "I'm running late." "But Boss..." "C'mon." "Try to run me over!" "What are you waiting for?" "Move the car." "C'mon!" "C'mon!" "C'mon!" "C'mon!" "Are you moving this car or will you look for a new job?" "I say we leave, Boss." "Why do we bother with that woman?" "That jerk!" "I will put you in jail!" "Now you wonder why he did." "You're crazy." "I was the one who got ran over and you're the one angry at me?" "Thanks for nothing." "Vito, why don't you want to enjoy your life?" "Enjoy it, bro." "Life is too short." "What do you plan to do with all the money you made in this lifetime?" "Are you that addicted to it?" "Or are you just a classic hoarder?" "You know, I've had it with living in poverty." "And it's only in the movies that being poor is fine and happy." "In real life, it's more fun to be rich." "Vito, keep using your"tool" while you still can." "Because time will come when all the ginsengs and Viagras in the world would no longer work for you." "Dom, stop giving me advices." "And don't start giving me ideas." "And why did you allow yourself to be an old maid?" "Who gets to keep your money when you pass on?" "Who else but my beloved nephew Dondi." "You know, a man gets prostate cancer when he doesn't use his..." "His"weapon"." "You know what I mean." "So you use your"weapon"while you still can." "You'd get prostate cancer when you don't." "You're justifying your dalliances with your fear of getting prostate cancer." "Well,you're right." "Look Vito, I'm just concerned about you." "Yes, concerned about my prostate." "What are you laughing at?" "Nothing, Sir." "Get us some refreshments." "How can you find a man who will love and take care of you if you just keep watching romantic comedies in movie houses and on DVDs?" "Do I really need a love life at my age?" "If it's not meant to be, then it's not." "If it's not fated to happen, then it won't." "Hold on." "Oh, it's from work." "I'll just do zumba." "Hello, Cheche." "Hello, Ma'am." "How are you right now?" "Say it." "Is there something wrong?" "A mistake was made by the one in charge at Events 1 021 ." "They booked us on the 1 6th instead of the 6th which we originally reserved." "They made the mistake so they better fix it." "That venue won't do." "You know that the old lady is 100 years old." "I'm sure, half the people of her whole province is invited, okay" "How lavish." "They want a big venue for a birthday party?" "There's a reservation fee, right?" "Who paid it first?" "Who paid the fee for the venue first?" "We did, Sir." "We paid first." "So we signed the contract first." "So, what are you waiting for?" "Go there and fix it, okay?" "I won't allow it." "Fix it." "That can't be!" "You again?" "!" "What are you?" "A curse or a mushroom?" "Why do you keep showing up where I am?" "Excuse me." "I'm a member of this exclusive club for the rich." "And so?" "You are just a regular member." "I'm a board member here because I am very,very rich." "And so?" "Hey dude, I will try not to forget your face." "So, are you going to block my car again?" "I dare you to do that in front of many people." "How about it?" "Shut up!" "I swear I will put you in jail." " Let's go." " So, you have nothing to say, huh?" "What are you all looking at?" "Have you not seen a gorgeous woman before?" "You're all ugly." "I'm the only beautiful one here." "Hello, Cheche." "Where is Dondi?" "Yes, Auntie." "Hi, Chelly.Where's Dad?" "He's on his way here from the country club." "So what am I supposed to do?" "I'll be reporting to you, right?" "'Cause I heard you'll be training me in production." "Anna, can you wait here for a bit?" "I just need to go somewhere to fix something." "Your dad is on his way there, too." "I'll go with you then." "I'm supposed to learn about the work here, right?" "So, I will join you and observe." "Where are you going?" "I'll go with you." "No, you stay here in the van." "What?" "Wait for your dad." "Just chill." "#Bored" "So, it's settled?" "We get the venue for the Big Boy Launch." "No, Miss." "That won't do." "We've made the reservation and signed the contract as well." "If you insist on what you want, we can file a lawsuit." "Are you the legal counsel of the other party?" "What's your client's company name?" "Party People." "I'm not the legal counsel." "Actually, the owner is my aunt Corazon Talatala." "Have you heard of her?" "No, Sir." "Never heard of her." "So, who is Corazon Talatala?" "I am Corazon Talatala." "You again?" "!" "You again?" "!" "You are really the devil to mess up my life." "Why you!" "Wait." "You know each other?" "Yes!" "This is the jerk who wanted to kill me this morning." "He ran over me." "Excuse me," "I didn't run over you." "You wanted to be ran over so I indulged you." "Excuse me." "We better clarify things here." "Miss," "Ms.Talatala's group booked the Main Events Hall first, right?" "Yes, they made the reservation last April 1 8 for June 6 but..." "And when did my group Carousel book the hall?" "April 25." "So, we booked it first," "The question is;" "Did they pay the reservation fee?" "We paid the reservation fee, right?" "Answer me.We paid the fee, right?" "No, you didn't." "How about us?" "Did we pay the fee?" "Yes, you did on" "April 25." "Which means we paid the fee in full on the day we booked." "Yes." "So who signed the contract first?" "You did." "Anna." "Hey, Anna." "What?" "Are you alright?" "Were you able to fix it?" "And where's Dad?" "You haven't seen him?" "Who is he?" "His name is" "Dondi." "He's the nephew of your dad's nemesis." "He's cute, huh?" "Not bad, really." "Kinda fair-skinned, though." "But it's okay." "He's got dimples, anyway." "Can I get on the van now?" "I can't because you keep looking at him." "Girl,you know the problem is that you let him." "You let your dad treat you that way." "He still thinks I'm a little girl." "Well,you're his little girl, right?" "Oh, he's handsome." "Only child syndrome." "I mean,you let him screen your phone calls?" "What?" "Yeah." "I caught my dad once." "He entered my room." "Daddy, what are you doing with my mobile phone?" "No, I'm not doing anything." "Did you tell your dad that your mobile phone is your private property?" "I feel like my dad monitors me everywhere I go." "It's like he's watching me through surveillance cameras wherever he may be." "No wonder." "Among us, you know you're the only one still without a boyfriend." "Actually." "Girl, check this out." "There's a guy across the bar who's been checking you out." "Which one?" "In a scale of 1 to 1 0?" "Around 8.25." "Really?" "Fail." "He's got a tattoo." "I don't like a guy with tattoo." "How can you be choosy?" "Do you work for the Red Cross to reject blood donors with tattoos?" "Hey, do you think my dad would approve of him with those looks?" "Wait." "Is he going to court you or your dad?" "He'd still get rejected as a friend." "Hey." "Hi." "You're...?" "Yeah, it's me." "I'm Dondi." "I know." "How did you know?" "Wild guess." "Of all the names,you thought of"Dondi"?" "I have super powers." "Forget it." "Do you have a name?" "No, I don't." "I'm just kidding." "I do." "Can you share it with me?" "Anna." "Anna." "You work at Carousel, right?" "Yeah, sort of." "What do you do?" "I'm not sure yet." "You're not sure?" "'Cause my dad owns the company." "Oh, okay." "So, the man we met earlier is your dad?" "So, I've met your dad.Weird, right?" "Yeah." "I've met your dad." "Your father." "Yeah." "I have to go." "You have to go?" "Yeah." "Nice meeting you." "Same here." "I mean nice meeting you, too." "Nice meeting you, too." "Can't we find another venue for the centenarian's birthday party?" "It's June so all venues are booked." "It's late to find an available one now." "I don't care if we hold it in an arena, a stadium," "Or even the middle of a public park." "Just find a venue for the party!" "Office work?" "I finished college just to do clerical work?" "Anna,you should know by now that you should not go against your dad." "'Cause the more you go against him, the more he will insist on what he wants." "You should know by now how to deal with him." "Up north?" "The celebrant is 100 years old." "And you want her to travel up north?" "She could be dead by the time she gets there." "So what do we do now, ma'am?" "Shall I call Mary Jane at 1021 Events Place?" "Shall we take the smaller venue?" "Go ahead." "Do we have any other choice?" "And where is Dondi?" "He supposed to take care of this." " Don't let this one scare you." " I won't, Sir." "Assign her things to do." "Just because she's my daughter doesn't mean she can have" "No, Sir." "What do you mean "No, Sir"?" "I mean "Yes", Sir." "Hey, wipe that frown off your face." "You might get wrinkles permanently." "Negative vibes." "Super-negative vibes." "As in." "Miss Anna,you have a phone call." "No, I don't." "On the trunkline." "Trunkline here in the office?" "Yes,..." "It's from Dondi." "Hello." "Hello, Anna." "Is this Anna Carillo?" "I said yes." "Are you alright?" "I'm fine." "Just lots of"bugs"around here." ""Bugs"?" "How did you find out my phone number?" "You said you work for Carousel, right?" "You said you do." "So I looked up your company's number on the phone book." "You're really something." "Why so?" "You're persistent." "But I'm not a stalker, okay." "You might get the wrong idea." "It's cool." "What did you say?" "What I mean is, I know you're not a stalker." "'Cause" "I've seen you in person." "You know, it's difficult talking on the office phone." "I'm on the office phone, too" "You must have a mobile phone." "Of course I do." "So, you think you can" "trust me with your digits?" "Why?" "Why what?" "Why do you want my digits?" " Because..." " Because...?" "Because I want to get to know you better." "Really?" "Yeah, really." "That's nice." "So, would you give me your mobile number or would you rather we keep talking on the office phone?" "Wait." "Whatever your decision is," "I'd understand." "No pressure." "I have a suggestion." "What don't you give me your number instead?" "Is that alright?" "Sure." "Okay." "So, your numbers are...?" "Okay." "Got it." "What's with you?" " Hi, Daddy." "How are you?" "Hey, Dondi." "Who are you talking to that's more urgent than your work?" "What are you talking about?" "Auntie, I'm just following up on a supplier." "Okay." "Proceed to my office after that call." "Okay." "Hello?" "Have the clients arrived?" "Have they seen the stage?" "Actually, they have." "Their representatives are on their way." "What time do we start to set up?" "We're just waiting for director's instructions about the lighting." "Che, come here." "Yes?" "Is this really the décor for the old lady's birthday?" "And check out the scent of these flowers." "And check out the scent of these flowers." "And check out the scent of these flowers." "It's overwhelming." "Not proper for birthdays" "Are the guys from Carousel?" "Yes." "We're the Big Boys." "Ah," "Are you the brand ambassadors for The Big Boys?" "What time is our rehearsal?" "Rehearsal?" "Why?" "Are you part of the show?" "Hey," "I hear music." "Where is that coming from?" "That's from the event next door." "They've started to prepare outside." "They're doing this on purpose." "They want to ruin our event." "Maybe they're just doing a technical rehearsal." "Are we part of their technical rehearsal?" "Hold on." "Rich, the music is too loud." "Can we turn it down?" "We're just testing the speakers." "Hey!" "Auntie." "Hey you!" "Don't make a scene." "You're not the only one who paid for this venue." "Turn your music down!" "Let me go." "Miss Talatala, we both paid to rent this venue." "The color of the money you paid is no different from ours" "So please stop complaining, okay?" "Enough already." "Enough?" "They're mocking us." "Proceed with the audio check." "You jerk!" "I'll have you killed." "I have lots of relatives who are killers-for-hire." "I said I'll have you killed." "I can't hear you." "Then, die!" "See?" "You heard me." "C'mon." "That's enough." "Daddy, my gosh." "you're so childish." "What?" "I can't hear ya." "Dondi," "I'm serious." "I'll pay 1 00 dollars to anyone who can bring that man down." "That's enough." "Okay, 1 50 dollars to make sure he's dead." "Hi." "Hi." "What are you doing here?" "I'd like to apologize for what my dad did." "Same here I'm sorry." "My aunt is kinda short-fused." "And she doesn't really like your dad." "It's okay." "The feeling is mutual." "My dad doesn't really like your aunt, either." "Okay." "Yeah." "Elmer, where's my daughter?" "I think she's with Miss Chelly." "I thought you were with Anna?" "Sir, I think she stayed behind outside earlier." "Where could she be?" "Sir, relax." "I'll go and find her." "Can you make sure we are ready to start in ten minutes?" "Yes, ma'am." "Okay." "Excuse me." "I gave you my number but" "You don't call or text me." "I don't want to." "Oh." "'Cause you might think I'm easy." "Why would I think that?" "I gave it to you so we can connect." "Anna." "Your dad has been looking for you." "Let's go." "See you." "See you." "You were about to say something?" "Huh?" "You were about to say something?" " No" "Save the sweet moments for later." "Let's go." "Bye." "Where's Dondi?" "He's been out-of-sight." "Look for him over there." "Hello.Where's Dondi?" "Dondi, you keep disappearing when we're busy." "Where have you been?" "I was taking care of something." "I'm sorry." "Happy Birthday, Auntie Esme." "What?" "Happy Birthday, Auntie Esme." "What?" "She can't hear you." "Say it louder." "Happy Birthday," "Auntie Esme!" "Very good.Very good." "Get ready." "Are you all set?" "Yes," "Let's start in five minutes." "Are we ready?" "Okay." "We're ready anytime." "But wait, the surprise does not end there." "Because we have one more gift for you." "Three, two, one." "What's going on?" "Why hasn't the show started yet?" "I'll ask Rexcy." "Rexcy, what's happening?" "Why haven't we started yet?" "Ma'am Chelly, I think there's something wrong with the sound." "Audio?" "But we checked it earlier, right?" "Don't panic." "They're checking for loose wiring." "Rexcy, tell them to fix it now." "Guys, the boss is getting restless." "Transfer it here." "There's still no audio." "What if you turn up the volume?" "I think that's it." "Okay, everyone on standby." "Ready." "Standby." "And to welcome us on this most special night, may we call on the son of our birthday celebrant." "Mr. Vicente "Vince"Sesmundo." "Good evening, friends and family." "Thank you so much for accepting our invitation to be with us tonight." "Good evening and welcome to the launch of ..." "Big Boy Energy Drink!" "And to start the party and get everyone really hot" "With the Big Boys!" "It's the 1 00th birthday of our mother, the one and only..." "Esmeralda Deogracias Sesmundo." "Chelly, what is this I'm watching?" "Sir, it's the opening number of the program." "Whose idea is this?" "I know it's kinda lewd." "I'm sorry." "But it's the client's idea." "Oh, the client's?" "It's nice, right?" "It's kinda different, right?" "Where's that music coming from?" "Ma'am, maybe it's from the event outside." "But why do we hear it in here?" "That's not music for old people." "We don't know." "You don't?" "Maybe you did this, huh?" "No, ma'am." "I have nothing to do with it." "Maybe that guy is trying to sabotage our event." "You're not with him on this, are you?" "What's this vulgarity?" "Gala night in a gay bar?" "How come our music can be heard next door?" "Dad, chill, OK?" "It is nobody's fault." "This is no time to chill." " It was an honest mistake." "How can that be?" "Hey!" "You're sabotaging everything we do." "You even took our venue." "Wait." "Who told your guests to gate-crash our event?" "You're trespassing." "That's right." "Shut up!" "What am I supposed to say to my client now?" "Back off!" "Relax." "Mr. Sesmundo would like to talk to you." "Mr. Sesmundo, I'm really sorry." "If you want, we can file a complaint against them." "No, we're not filing a complaint." "In fact, we'd like to thank you." "What?" "This is the first time we've seen our mom this happy." "You didn't even tell us about the surprise dance number." "It won't be surprise if they told us." "We were surprised ourselves." "You mean your mother liked the performers?" "Yes, she was so happy." "Look at her." "Did you provide the entertainment?" "I guess I did." "Oh thank you very much." "You're welcome." "Our mom won't forget this for the rest of her life." "Finally..." "How are you, A?" "Are you OK?" "Anna." "Anna." "Yes, Dad?" "I'll just see you in the office tomorrow." " Okay, Dad." " I need to go somewhere first." "You seem out of breath." "Is your asthma back?" "No, Dad." "I'm fine." "Someone is still texting you this late?" "Sammie is just asking me something." "Good night, Dad." "Go to sleep and stop texting." "It's almost midnight." "Anna, do you know how your dad will react when he finds out?" "He'll never find out." "And I promise I'll be there in time for the 1 :30PM meeting." "Who's the guy?" "Hey." " Have you waited long?" "What?" "Not really." "C'mon." "Sir, Chelly said she'll bring Anna with her to the meeting." "The one with suppliers?" "Yes." "Why does my daughter have to be there?" "You're intense." "Why?" "You keep staring at me." "Oh, I'm sorry." "It's so distracting." "Cut it out." "Sorry." "I just can't believe it." "Believe what?" "That you're here seated across me." "You brought Anna with you to the meeting?" "Yes," "I brought her along so she can get a feel of how to deal with suppliers." "I'd like to talk to her" "What?" "I said I'd like to talk to Anna." "She's not here." "I thought she was with you." "Yes, she was with me earlier." "Then she went to the convenience store." "She bought a ballpen." "Ballpen?" "Can you not spare her one of yours?" "Sir, she said she wants one of her own." "What?" "Talk to me." "About what?" "About yourself." "I have nothing to talk about myself." "My life is boring." "I don't think so." "How would you know?" "We just met." "I can tell." "Is that how you make a move on girls?" "I'm not like that." "I don't believe you." "Why wouldn't you?" "With those looks, you tell me you're not a..." "Not a what?" "Let's change the subject." "Tell me." "A player." "I'm not a player." "I believe that the girl for me" "will come, no matter what." "I don't have to look for her." "Wow." "That's #LineoftheDay for you." "You have ketchup on you." "Thank you." "You still haven't answered my question." "About what?" "If you believe in..." "The right timing?" "Yes." " Of course I do." "I believe there are no accidents in life." "Whatever is bound to happen will happen." "Hey, have I given you permission to do that?" "Do what?" "H-H-W-C-C." "What's H-H-W-C-C?" "Holding Hands While Chit-Chatting." "Sorry." "Sorry, sorry." "No, it's alright." "I'm really sorry." "I said it's alright." "It's fine to place your hand back on mine." "Okay." "Don't lie to me." "Why is he always on the phone?" "I'm in bed." "Hey!" "Auntie,you scared me." "Who are you talking to?" "A friend." "Friend?" "It's almost midnight." "Go to sleep." "Night." "Do you notice anything unusual about Dondi?" "I do." "He's not fussy before about his clothes" "He'd just put on anything." "But now he buys lots of them." "He shops for clothes almost everyday." "It's like..." "Like what?" "He's trying to look attractive." "And don't you notice his scent?" "What's that smell?" "It's overwhelming." "Right." "Time out." "We've been talking for 45 minutes now." "It's okay." "Let's talk some more." "Wait." "I got a text message." "I'll stay a bit longer." "Call me later, okay?" "You think" "I can visit you at your place?" "I just want to formally meet your dad." "The problem is my dad already knows you and your aunt." "So we'll just keep meeting like this?" "Relax." "Why are you in a hurry?" "#ExcitedMuch?" "You got a text message." "For what?" "For being here." "You're corny." "Wait." "Dondi, I'd like to ask you something if you don't mind." "Wait." "Now I'm scared." "You don't have to answer if you don't like." "Okay." "What's your question?" "What is it?" "How many girlfriends have you had?" "None." "Yeah right." "You don't believe me?" "Because it's unlikely you..." "I swear I haven't had one." "Is it because you're picky or dorky around girls?" "You're pretty straightforward, huh?" "If I were dorky, do you think I'd be here with you right now?" "Okay." "Good answer." "I'm just picky." "Are you, really?" "Yes because..." "I want to take things seriously." "I don't play around when it comes to relationships." "I take it seriously." "That's good." "Okay." "Are you okay?" "Okay." "Are you okay?" "What's wrong?" "Nothing." "Let's go." "Okay." "You left your phone." "Did Anna report for work?" "She left the house before I did." "I actually saw Miss Anna earlier." "Maybe she stepped out for a while." "Chelly." "Sir." "Do you know where my daughter is?" "Did she skip work?" "No, Sir." "I sent her on an errand." "You did?" "Yes." "I sent her to the printer." "The client wants interaction." "So some of the guests will have a chance to voice their opinions." "That's why the layout is like this." "Hey Bodji, you better take some meds." "I feel your pain." "Okay, proceed as planned." "Rexcy, Elmer, you handle this." "Yes, Sir." "You may go now." "Sir?" "Mr. Ong called to change the meeting venue." "He changed his mind again?" "He wants a venue nearby." "Near to him but far from me." "What a cheapskate." "I don't get it." "We've done nothing wrong and yet we have to meet behind your dad's back." "Give it time, okay?" "My dad doesn't easily trust other guys." "He thinks all of them, including the water delivery boy, are courting me." "Why would he think that?" "He's my dad." "Of course, he finds me so beautiful." "Why?" "Don't you agree?" "You're funny." "If you don't find me beautiful, why do you keep seeing me behind your aunt's back?" "What does my aunt have to do with us?" "You're silly." "Of course." "That's why you go crazy over me, right?" "Enough of this." "Admit it." "You're crazy over me, right?" "No, I'm hungry." "What would you like to eat?" "I've been checking the restaurants." "Rudy." "Have you waited long?" "No, about five minutes." "Sir." "Hi." "Sir, would you like to order first?" "Yes, I'd love that." "Good afternoon." "Miss, table for two." "This way, please." "Ohmigosh!" "We have to go." "But we just got here." "No, we have to go." "But why?" "Ouch." "Wait." "Rudy, you've met my daughter Anna, right?" "Is that her?" "Where?" "Why are we in a hurry?" "My dad is in the restaurant." "Are you sure it was him?" "I'm pretty sure." "It's him, alright." "C'mon." "Let's hide." "Are you sure it was your daughter you saw?" "If it wasn't her, why would she run away?" "Run away?" "Yes" "Yes because I caught her with a guy." "Who was it?" "I'm not sure but I think he looks familiar." "I think he followed us." "Hi, Dad." "Good afternoon, Sir." "Since when have you been lying to me?" "And you even asked Chelly to be your accomplice?" "Stop seeing that woman's nephew." "Stop it." "Dad, we've done nothing wrong." "Should I wait for you to do something wrong before I react?" "Excuse me." "Perhaps you two should talk it out first." "No, stay here and sit down." "I need a witness." "Yes, Sir." "Stop seeing that guy." "I'm not kidding." "If you keep seeing that what's-his-name..." "Dondi." "That Dondi," "I tell you..." "I really tell you..." "What will you tell me?" "I'll tell you." "Don't answer back at me." "I'm your father." "That guy wants to meet with me?" "Why?" "I don't know, Ma'am." "But he's asking if you're available tonight to meet." "She refused my invitation?" "Looks like it, Sir." "Jenny." "Sir?" "get me the number of that woman." "I will, Sir." "Get her private number." "Cheche!" "Cheche!" "Cheche!" "Yes, Ma'am." "Where have you been?" "I've been calling you." "Where's Dondi?" "Ma'am, your phone." "I know." "Here you go." "Go!" " Hello?" " Hello." " Hello?" "!" " Hello?" "!" "You again?" "!" " Yes, it's me." "You don't give up, do you?" "What do you want?" "Will you listen to me first?" "I'm not interested in what you have to say, okay?" "Even if it concerns your good nephew?" "See," "I got your attention." "I got your attention." "What about Dondi?" "What about my nephew?" "We can't talk about it over the phone." "If you want, we can talk about it over dinner tonight." "Are you trying to find a way to ask me out on date?" "Hey Miss," "I'm not asking you out on a date." "I'm doing you a favor that's why I asked you out." "Now if you feel uneasy about it, we can go dutch." "Sure." "Hoy for the record," "I can afford it." "I'm rich." "I know you're rich and famous." "For the record too,you maybe more famous than I but I'm richer than you." "Oh really?" "Then prove it." "Where do we meet?" "Thank you for accepting my invitation on short notice." "What?" "I said thank you." "I can't hear you." "Why do we need to have dinner here?" "Because no one will see us here." "Why do we need to hide?" "It's about your nephew." "What's wrong with Dondi?" "He won't stop seeing my daughter." "Your daughter?" "The one Dondi is crazy calling every night is your daughter?" "Here's my question." "Do you agree with me that you don't want my daughter to end up with your nephew?" "Of course." "I have so many plans for Dondi that your daughter might just ruin it for him." "They should not find out about this." "Because once they do, the more they might end up together." "So what do we do?" "You've always wanted to study in the US, right?" "Well, I would want you to take over our business someday." "I mean, who else would inherit all my business and money but you?" "So we should prepare you for that." "That's all." "Dad, are you serious?" "You want to be independent and learn about our business, right?" "But... your sending me to Cebu?" "What's wrong with that?" "Cebu is a major city like Manila so we need to expand there." "Wait, Auntie." "Do you have cancer?" "Are your days numbered?" "You talk to me as if you'll die soon." "Don't overreact." "I'm not sick." "I just want us to be prepared." "That's all." "How many years will your studies take?" "You can come back here when you're done." "My MBA?" "Yes." "Two years." "Two years is okay." "You can stay in the States for two years." "That'll be fine." "But Dad, we'll be away from each other." "Why is that?" "Cebu is only an hour away by plane." "You don't even need a passport to go there." "They've agreed." "So, are we good?" "We've solved our problem." "Dondi will be away from me for two years." "I'm sending my daughter away to Cebu." "Will Anna be there for long time?" "This is the first time my daughter will be away from me." "Why are you getting sentimental when this is all your plan?" "But you agreed to do it, too." "So,your dad is sending you to Cebu?" "As if it matters to you." "Your aunt is sending you to the States, too." "But did you agree to your dad's plan?" "You accepted the offer to go to the US too, right?" "No, I'm not going to the States anymore." "I don't wanna go to Cebu." "So, what do we do now?" "Young people think they can handle anything." "Especially love." "You're telling me." "You know how many times my heart has been shredded to pieces because of love?" "No but I have a feeling I'm about to find out." "With so many things I've gone through in life," "I've learned only one lesson." "Ask me what." "Okay, I'm asking." "Life is not a romcom movie." "What?" "Life is not a romantic comedy movie complete with background music and happy scenes." "Life is a soap opera." "A never-ending one for not-so-beautiful people like us." "Why am I part of your league?" "You're such an ILWO." "What's ILWO?" "In Love With Oneself." "You're an ILWO yourself." "What?" "Nothing." "You really don't have a girlfriend?" "But you're rich, right?" "What does my money have to do with my lovelife?" "Maybe you're a cheapskate, huh?" "A miser." "Perhaps that's the reason why I'm still single." "Wow." "Finally, we have something in common." "Well, you look like a swindler yourself." "Hey, I'm just a miser not a swindler." "So, let's call it night." "Vito." "Yes?" "Let's go drinking." "Cora, would like more beer?" "Later." "I'll finish this first." "Okay." "You seem to be popular around here." "The staff call you by your first name." "I used to have a boyfriend who loves live band shows." "We used to hang out here." "You had a boyfriend?" "Why are you surprised?" "His name is Cirilo." "I cry whenever I think of him." "Cirilo is just a simple guy." "His nickname is Liloy." "Liloy." "Sounds like a gay salon worker's name." "Let me finish my story first." "Go ahead." "Liloy is just a simple guy who shuns extravangance." "He's fine eating grilled chicken intestines and feet." "For special occasions, he'd have deep-fried offal with beer." "We used to be so happy." "What happened?" "Your love story with Liloy seem to have suddenly ended." "I found out something unpleasant." "What?" "He's got body odor?" "The nerve of that jerk." "He's married." "But they have no kids." "Because Liloy is... sterile." "You cried over a sterile guy with body odor?" "Have you not had a girlfriend since your wife died?" "No one?" "As in?" "No one." "May I ask another question?" "Even if I refuse, you'd ask me anyway." "Are you not in a relationship because... you can't do it anymore?" "Can't do what?" "You can't do it anymore." "Do what?" "You know what I mean." "Of course," "I still can." "Why ask me about that?" "Why not?" "How about you?" "Did you not think of having a child?" "What?" "Don't you want to have a child anymore?" "Me?" "At this age?" "If I get pregnant now, my kid would be smoking, with a moustache and a tattoo when it comes out." "Ridiculous." "Let's drink some more." "I don't need you anymore" "Get out of my sight" "My feelings for you are now gone" "And always remember this" "You hurt me so much" "The love and affection I gave you" "You can repay with tears" "I don't wanna hope for anything anymore" "I don't wanna look for anyone anymore" "I don't wanna look at my reflection anymore" "My heart is still hurting" "Let's just update each other on the result of our plan." "Thank you for the evening." " Good night." " Good night." "Sorry." "It hurt a bit." "One more time." "Good night" "Sorry." "Last try." "Good night." "A kiss for granny." " Good evening, Sir." "Thank you." "Go ahead." "I'll be the one to lock the door." "Okay." "Dad." "Don't scare me like that." "You might give me a heart attack." "Where have you been?" "Work." "Why do you reek of cigarette and beer?" "I had a meeting with a client." "Then we went out for a drink." "Nothing wrong with that, right?" "Dad, I'd like to tell you something." "Don't get mad, okay?" "My greatest fear just came true." "Who's the father?" "How many months are you pregnant?" "When did you find out?" "What are you talking about, Dad?" "What I wanted to tell you is..." "I'm not going to Cebu." "I can't imagine leaving you all alone here." "Who will take care of you?" "Dondi, you've always wanted to study in the States since high school." "Here's your chance and don't wanna go?" "Do you know how expensive it is to study in the US?" "How much?" "Auntie, I've computed it." "It's in US dollars." "Imagine, you're going to spend 50,000 dollars per semester." "Even if we're rich," "I don't want you to spend that kind of money." "That expensive, huh?" "Get a hold of yourselves." "What is it you want to tell me?" "Ponchi and I can't go up north for the ocular inspection." "Because, Ma'am, we're in charge... of the Salgado wedding." "What are we to do now?" "Who can we send to the resort for the Domingo family?" "Ma'am, why don't you send Dondi?" "Out of town?" "Overnight?" "As if my dad would allow me." "I just want to spend a little bit more time with you." "I'm not sure..." "Why?" "Don't you trust me?" "Why are you doing this to me, Babe?" "So I'm "Babe"now." "Hey,you think he'll allow you..." "Chelly, you think I'll ask his permission?" "Anna, you better think twice." "My dad would rather have me turn into a monk planting coffee in the mountains." "Suit yourself." "Make sure you know what you're doing because..." "Chelly, the boss is asking for you." "Sure." "I'll be right there." "If you'll go crazy in love, make sure you're not on the losing end, okay?" "Anna,you won't believe what I discovered about this guy." "Sammie, hold on." "You think I can ask you a big, big favor?" "Overnight?" "Why do you have to stay overnight?" "It's a get-together with friends" "At Sammie's house up north." "Who's going with you?" "The usual suspects." "Sammie," "Georgie, and maybe Malen." "And guys?" "Yeah, there's Sammie's brother Aries and his friend." "When are you leaving?" "Early tomorrow morning." "I'm sleeping over at Sammie's place tonight" "So we can leave early tomorrow morning." "It's just nearby." "Why do you have to sleep over at Sammie's?" "Dad..." "Okay." "Take care" "Thank you, Dad." "Any messages for me?" "Mrs. Coronel of Forever Flowers called." " She's asking if..." " No other callers?" "Yes, ma'am." "You're really crazy." "Do you know this guy well enough to travel with him up north?" "Girl,just chill, okay?" "I know this guy." "Besides, we have other companions." "Just remember, when my dad calls..." "You're putting me in a bind here." "Hi." "Good morning." "Hi." "Good morning." "Hi." "This is my friend Sammie." "Hi, Sammie." "I'm Dondi." "Nice to meet you." "Now I know why." "Why what?" "Nothing." "Maite is coming with us today." "Hi." "Good morning." "I'll just check the weather forecast if it's safe to travel northward." "Looks okay." "Shall we eat along the way?" "Let's go" "Ma'am, good morning." "Oh my lord!" "Yolly, why didn't you wake me up earlier?" "Good morning, Uncle." "How are you?" "Good morning." "How are you?" "Hi." "Wow." "Look at you." "Stop teasing me, Uncle." "You look great." "Are you okay with this?" "Dondi, I'm not picky about food." "Hello, Ponchi." "What's up?" "Maite, where are you?" "We're on our way up north." "Why?" "The wedding is off." "Oh..." "The couple broke up." "Oh..." "Okay, got it." "Bye." "Maite, what's up?" "Sir, we have a slight problem." "Sir, the wedding we're planning is not pushing through." "What?" "The couple broke up." "They're cancelling all the arrangements." "So what now?" "Are we still going there?" "What's the update on your contact in Singapore?" "Are they interested?" "Uncle,you know those people." "Uncle Vito, how are you" "By the way, this is my schoolmate Orwell." " Good morning, Sir." " Orwell, my uncle Vito." "Hi." "Good morning." "Georgie, what are you doing here?" "Aren't you supposed to be with Sammie and Anna?" "Sammie is on her way here." "Here?" "Not up north?" "What's up north?" "Uncle, there's Sammie." "Sammie, come back here!" "It's him." "What is it this time?" "Did your nephew go out of town, Cora?" "How did you know?" "Let me guess." "He went up north." "Who told you that?" "Because he brought my daughter with him." "Text me your home address." "I'll pick you up and let's follow them." "Shit!" "Yolly!" "Ma'am, he's here." "Yolly, don't forget to clean the house." "I'm leaving." "Bye, Ponchi." "Have you reached Miss Cora?" "Her phone just keeps ringing." "She's not picking up." "You should have called her first about the cancellation." "Don't you think the guests headed north should be notified first before her?" "She's coming here anyway." "I'm ready." "What are you wearing?" "Is there a problem?" "We're going to the countryside up north." "Do you think the townsfolk there are ready for your attire?" "Why?" "Are short pants banned up north?" "C'mon." "Let's go." "It's a long trip." "About four hours." "Hurry." "You have such a rude personality." "Just to remind you:" "You're not handsome." "Look at your self in the mirror." "You're not pretty, either." "Really rude." "Get in the car." "Okay." "Have you thought about what we'll do once we get there?" "I thought so." "You're crazy." "You don't have a plan." "Oh my." "What are you doing?" "My mobile phone." "Shit!" "I left it in the house because you kept rushing me." "Is this the place?" "Where are they?" "Dondi and the company vehicle are not here." "Good afternoon, Ma'am and Sir." "Do you have reservations for a cottage?" "We would just like to inquire." "Did anyone from Party People come here?" "Party People..." "Who's that?" "How could that be?" "I sent my nephew here to do an ocular inspection." "Ma'am, we would have welcomed anyone who came from Manila." "Where did your nephew bring my daughter?" "Ma'am, we got a text message from your head office in Manila." "Your reservation has been cancelled." "Cancelled?" "How could that be?" "We made reservations here for the Domingo party." "Now it's cancelled?" "Yes, Ma'am." "Domingo party is cancelled." "Wait." "We're getting confused here." "Here." "Call your office to find out what's happening." "Ma'am, we have no signal in here." "You have to go out." "Hello, hello." "Hello." "Hello, Sir." "Who's this?" "Jenny?" "No, Sir." "It's Rexcy." "Jenny already left." "Can you hear me?" "Yes, Sir, but your reception is not clear." "Where are you?" "You sound far away." "I'm really far away." "Sir, Miss Chelly is here." "You might want to talk to her." "She's with your daughter." "Is my daughter there already?" "Where are they?" "Where are the two?" "Sir Vito, where are you?" "Why did you not show up in your meetings today?" "Where's my dad?" "Is that Anna?" "Let me talk to her." "Okay, Sir." "Yes, Dad?" "I thought you went out of town with your friends." "I thought you went out of town with your friends." "There was a sudden change of plan so we decided to come back." "I came straight to the office." "Don't go anywhere.Wait for me there." "We'll talk." "I thought so." "Oh, what happened?" "Hello, Sir." "This is Chelly." "Chelly, can you hear me?" "Yes, Sir, but your reception is not clear." "Where are you?" "Chelly, we're here at..." "Hello?" "Were you able to reach them?" "My phone went dead." "Let me check." "Did you charge the battery?" "No." "You're such a stupid guy." "Why didn't you charge the battery?" "You're supposed to charge it overnight." "I get it." "And don't call me stupid." "Let me guess." "You didn't bring your battery charger?" "May we use your phone?" "We just need to make an emergency call." "We don't have a trunkline." "What do you mean?" "The manager just said you received a fax about the wedding cancellation." "We have a fax machine in our office in town." "How many minutes does it take to get there?" "Thirty if you have a car." "And if you don't?" "One hour and thirty because you have to pass through a small forest." "We need to pass through a forest?" "Yes but there are just very few snakes there." "Sir and Ma'am,just a piece of advice." "It's dark outside." "It's not safe anymore to walk to town." "Because there no electric lights along the way." "Bro, let me ask you." "Do you have a mobile phone?" "Yes, Sir." "Do you have a battery charger?" "Yes, Sir." "Perhaps we can..." "Let me guess." "You ran out of phone credits." "You're sharp, Ma'am." "How did you know?" "I thought so." "He looked like he didn't have any phone credits." "You're the jinx here." "Auntie followed me up north." "But why?" "A guy called her then she became restless." "The guy picked her up and off they went." "I hope the food is to your liking." "It's fine.Thanks again." "Come." "Join us." "The food is not even enough for the two of us." "I brought you something." "Something to keep you warm." "Coconut wine." "Good for cold nights like this." "Especially for couples." "Hello?" "Whom did you tell about our trip up north?" "No one." "To whom would I mention it?" "I talked to Dad." "He seems to know something." "I wonder why." "Vito, did you not love any other woman apart from your wife?" "I did." "But not as much as I loved Ria." "Did you see the guy who picked up Auntie?" "Yes." "Do you know him?" "No." "How does he look like?" "Thin?" "Long face?" "Yes." "And he dresses well." "Would you like to fall in love again?" "I've had it with men so no thanks." "Even if you find a decent guy?" "You know, men just love me for one thing." "Guess what?" "Your money." "Of course not." "I'm a tightwad, remember?" "So, what?" "My body." "Anna," "I know where to find your dad." "He's with my aunt up north." "What?" "My dad is with your aunt?" "Sir Vito and Miss Talatala, together?" "You better drink some more." "Do you hear music?" "I do.Where is that coming from?" "Cora." "Vito, don't." "Go to bed." "You're drunk." "Cora." "Vito, please don't." "What happened?" "Don't go, Cora." "Be careful,Vito." "Be careful of the words you say for I will take them to heart." "I just want you to know that it's not too late." "Don't,Vito." "Don't" "If you still want to be happy, you need to be strong." "Don't say that,Vito." "I just want to..." "Enough," "Enough,Vito." "I don't wanna get hurt anymore." "But if I need this to stay alive then do it." "So that I feel there a reason for me to live." "Hurt me,Vito." "Hurt me." "What are you waiting for?" "Go for it." "Why do talk like a soap opera actress?" "Vito, hurt me." "Make me feel helpless." "Okay." "C'mon." "Mrs. Carillo, wake up." "Knock louder." "Wait." "I'm coming." "Yolly, my coffee." "What's happening to those two?" "Good morning, Ma'am and Sir." "Good morning." "We heard that you're looking for a vehicle to take you to Manila." "Ah yes." "Ours broke down." "We saw one that can take you to Manila." "Sorry." "You better be." "I didn't mean to..." "Are you blaming it on the coconut wine?" "But it was good." "The coconut wine, I mean." "Of course." "Dondi, your aunt is here." "Auntie, what happened to you last night?" "It's a long story, Dondi." "I'll tell you about it later." "Were you with Mr. Carillo last night?" "Yes," "I was with your aunt." "I also know who you were with yesterday." "Dondi, please don't interview me now." "My whole body is aching." "I was physically battered." "What did you do?" "Nothing." "It's actually just my lower back." "You haven't been using your muscles that's why you tire easily." "I'll get going." "My daughter must be looking for me." "Why are looking at me like that?" "C'mon." "You refused my offer to let you study in the States because you said you want to be with me." "But it's actually Vito's daughter that you want to be with, right?" "Auntie, it's not like that." "Oh, don't deny it." "And your trip up north was supposed to be for business, right?" "You were to do an ocular inspection but you brought a girl along." "May I ask the questions now?" "Were you in the same room as Anna's dad last night?" "You lied to your own father because of that guy?" "Dad, don't you trust me?" "I trust you." "It's that guy I don't trust." "Do you think I'd let myself be fooled by a guy?" "Anna, that's what young girls said before they learned to change their kid's diapers." "Which leads me to my own question." "May I?" "You were with Miss Talatala all night, right?" "Did you sleep in separate cottages?" "Did you sleep in the same room last night, Dad?" "Let's talk tomorrow." "Your nephew has the right to be happy, too." "You never know." "It's so much fun to have a grandchild." "I'm not ready to have one." "I don't want to be a grandma yet." "Ma'am, your phone has been ringing." "Who is it?" "It's Vito." "Just a sec." "Sure." "Take your time." "Mercy, is that the white shirt I'll be wearing on Saturday?" "Yes, Sir.What do you think?" "That's fine." "So white." "Cost you only 1 3 cents, right?" "How did you know, Sir?" "I know." "Did your nephew ask you a lot of questions?" "Of course, he was worried about me." "How about your daughter?" "She's a nosy girl." "What did she ask you?" "She asked what happened to us that night." "Did you tell her what happened?" "Of course not!" "Why do you sound like you dreaded that night?" "I just answered your question, okay?" "For the record,you got me drunk." "Why you..." "Ouch." "I can't get enough of you." "Ouch." "Let me help you." "Sorry." "Madam?" "Auntie, is it true you were out with Anna's dad last night?" "These people really have the time to wag their tongues." "Is it true or not?" "It's true." "Who told you that..." "Dondi called me." "He asked if you were out last night." "I told you I don't like you talking to..." "Don't change the subject, Dad." "It is true you went on a date with Dondi's aunt last night?" "Is it true?" "Why are looking at me like that?" "We only met because... you discussed how to monitor Anna and me?" "Of course not." "So, it was a date." "What's wrong with that?" "So you admit it's true." "I do." "What's wrong with befriending Cora?" "Is it forbidden?" "Why do you forbid that I befriend Dondi?" "That's different." "You're young adults." "And I don't think there's anything wrong if I want to be happy." "It gets lonely being alone, you know." "Oh really?" "So, it's okay for you be happy but not for me?" "Is it fine with you that your dad and..." "Of course not." "Don't take it personally but my mom was so beautiful." "What do you mean by that?" "Nothing." "I'm just saying that my mom was beautiful." "And my aunt is not?" "Well, my mom was more beautiful." "Well, my aunt is nice." "Still, my mom was more beautiful." "Fine." "And besides, I really don't like your aunt for my dad." "If that's what you wanted to hear." "Good." "At least, we agreed on something." "I have to go." "My dad must be looking for me." "Bye." "I feel so cheap!" "What's the matter with you, Cora?" "It's Dondi." "What is it this time?" "He's been ignoring me ever since he found out I've been seeing Vito." "What has that got to do with him?" "Vito is his girlfriend's dad." "Are you okay?" "I'm always okay." "Chelly, come ride with me." "We're running late for our meeting with Woody." "Okay, Sir." "So what if Vito is the girl's dad?" "Now that I have become older, gotten all sorts of sickness, and have been taking maintenance meds, that's when I started flirting around." "Hey excuse me, Cora." "It is not written in any nation's constitution or any religion's holy scriptures that there is an age limit to flirting around." "But what will other people say about me?" "To hell with them!" "Do their opinions feed you?" "No." "You have a point." "So what are you ashamed of?" "But Dondi still ignores me." "Sir Vito, do you want me to get you anything?" "Chelly, you have a stepmother, right?" "Yes, Sir." "Take a seat." "My dad and elder brother are residing in the States because Auntie Lou is a US citizen." "Your dad was a widower who remarried." "Were you angry at him when he did?" "At first, I thought no one can replace my mom." "However beautiful or nice she may be." "But you accepted her?" "Yes because I saw my dad was really happy." "I love my dad so much that's why I really wanted him to be happy." "Sir," "Anna also wants you to be happy." "So why doesn't she get me?" "Sir, because you don't get her, either." "I noticed that she changed a lot." "Especially when we started going out." "How can you tell?" "I just felt it." "Let me ask you." "Have you noticed anything different with your nephew?" "Is it because he knows we've been seeing each other?" "That seems to be the reason." "That's what I don't understand." "Why?" "It's not as if we're in a relationship." "Are we?" "The two of us?" "Hell no!" "All I can say to that is" ""Oh wow"." "That's right." "Oh wow." "So we're not." "Why does he hurt me when he's not even handsome?" "Stop crying." "Sing your feelings out." "C'mon." "But still I stand tall" "Here I am, all drenched in the rain" "Nowhere to take cover, no one to give help" "I hope I still have tears left to cry" "If only to ease my sadness" "Chelly, is my dad okay?" "Why ask me when you live in the same house?" "We seldom talk ever since that woman came into our lives." "How can you make your dad understand you if you don't understand him?" "It's fine with me if he courts another woman but why Miss Talatala?" "You're not the one who's going to live with your dad's partner, right?" "But my mom was so beautiful." "Wait." "Do you know the saying" ""beauty is in the eye of the beholder"?" "So you think I should bring my dad to an eye doctor?" "You're nasty." "I know he's not been seeing Miss Talatala lately, right?" "I know," "My dad has not been out of his room lately." "He's been working on jigsaw puzzles." "Anna, if you really love your dad" "I think you can still make him happy." "But how?" "You know very well how." "Obviously, I don't like seeing my dad looking so sad." "Sad?" "He's in his room all day working on jigsaw puzzles." "Jigsaw puzzles?" "Yeah." "A thousand pieces each." "Ever since he stopped seeing your aunt, he's been that way." "I think he's already completed three sets." "My aunt has been giving concerts every night." "I've memorized the lyrics to all the classic rock ballads." "That's why I wanted to talk to you." "Because I think we're mistaken." "Something's wrong." "Yeah." "We're mistaken." "That's why we must do something." "Because two wrongs do not make it right." "So, what do you suggest?" "Will you help Chelly and I?" "Sure." "I'll help any way I can." "Just take care of your aunt." "Okay." "Okay." "So we're done?" "One more thing." "What is it?" "I missed you." "#ReallyNow?" "Of course." "How come you never texted nor called me?" "#Embarassed" "You're crazy." "I'm only crazy for you." "I'm not going, Dondi." "Auntie,you can't miss that event." "Suppliers, government officials, and hotel managers will be there." "Please come." "I'm not comfortable going to black-tie events." "You'd fit in perfectly." "I have nothing to wear." "You go instead." "We have so many supplier contacts." "For sure we can call someone to provide you a nice dress." "C'mon." "Come to the party" "Okay." "I'll go to the party." "You know I don't like going to such events."
