April 21, 2013 8:00 pm at the dance and band rehearsal for DJ’s birthday concert.

The concert director clapped his hands after Parking 5 performed their rehearsal of Mr. Brightside.

“Okay na yun.  Thanks boys.  Good job.  In a few minutes, i-practice naman natin yung sa inyong dalawa ni Kath, DJ.” the concert director said aloud.

“Wala pa si Kath eh... sabi niya kanina hahabol agad siya pagkatapos ng schedules niya.” DJ said frowning.

Suddenly, Jinky Fabelico, their concert producer, shouted. “Ayan na ang dyowa!”

Everyone turned around and glanced at the door.  Kath had just entered the room wearing shorts and a comfortable long-sleeved polo shirt.

Seth grinned “Just in time, Kath. Yow!”

“Hi, guys!” Kath said brightly to everyone.

DJ hopped off the small stage and walked over to her and immediately held her hand.

“Bakit ang tagal mo?” he asked with a cute expression.

Kath laughed. “Ay, matagal ba? Sorry na... medyo natraffic kasi kami.”  Then, she sweetly pinched his cheeks.  “Kumain ka na ba?”

DJ nodded. “Oo, kanina... Kumain na kami lahat dito. Ikaw?”

Kath smiled. “Kumain na rin kami ni mommy... Ang vitamins mo?”

Lester rolled his eyes. “Tama na! Nandidiri na ako dito.”

“Wala ba kayong ibang alam gawin kung hindi magharutan?” Seth asked aloud.

DJ snorted. “at kayo ni Anikka? Wala ba kayong ibang alam gawin kung hindi magbangayan?”

Katsumi laughed. “Wahaha. Sapul!”

Seth glared at DJ. “Hoy! Peace na kami!”

“Akala ko break na talaga eh... tindi kaya ng drama mo nung mga nakaraang araw... hirap mag-adjust sa depression ninyo.” DJ said aloud.

Seth sighed. “Okay na kami... seryoso, nagdinner out kami kagabi.  Okay na! Huwag na kayo mag-alala.  Ganyan talaga lahat ng relasyon, may ups and downs, matibay kayo kung malalagpasan ninyo lahat ng yun.”

“Anong ups and downs?” Lester asked aloud.

“Parati kayo down! Hoy!” Katsumi said laughing.

“Bawas-bawasan kasi ang pagpapacute sa ibang babae.” JC remarked.

“Oo nga.  Tingnan mo ako, si Kath lang ang pinapansin ko.” DJ said aloud.

“Pinagtutulungan niyo ba ako?” Seth asked while he glared at the others.

Everyone laughed.  Then, DJ glanced at Kath and hugged her tight.

“Wow ha!” Jinky remarked.

“Ai, sorry po.” DJ said awkwardly.

“Mr. and Ms. PDA!” Seth exclaimed.

Kath blushed.

“Kawawang Kath... Malapit na kasi birthday ni DJ kaya kailangan niya pagbigyan... kahit labag sa kalooban niya.” Lester said seriously.

“Ano sinabi mo?!” DJ asked with an angry tone.

“Sabi ko ang gwapo mo, DJ. Pa-hug nga.” Lester joked as he tried to hug DJ.

“Tigilan mo ako, Klarisse!” DJ complained aloud.

Everyone laughed as Lester froze.  “Bakit napasok si Klarisse sa usapan?” he asked.
