Francesca:

What is it?

Jai:

I don't know where to start.

Francesca:

Sabihin mo na

Wala akong oras. Mag-aaral pa ako.

Jai:

I'm really sorry.

Francesca:

Narinig ko na yan.

What happened this time?

Jai:

Wala.

Walang nangyari. Nalungkot lang ako.

I deactivated all my accounts. Never left my room. Slept all day. I just didn't want to talk to anyone.

Francesca:

I hope you know how much I want to understand you because I know it was tough for you.

Pero kasi Jairo, di ko magets e.

Gaano ba kahirap magpaalam?

"Ces, di muna kita makakausap. I just need some time alone."

Mahirap ba yon?

Ano, wala lang ba ako sayo? Na sa tuwing malulungkot at magkakaproblema ka, mawawala ka bigla?

Jai:

No. It's not like that.

I like you. I really do.

Francesca:

E ano?

Bakit?

Jai:

I wasn't ready.

Francesca:

What are you saying?

Minamadali ba kita?

Jai:

No. I wasn't ready for what I'm feeling.

I was scared that maybe if I talk to you just a little bit more, I'll want you.

And I don't want that. Not yet. Not when I'm still unstable.

Francesca:

So you just decided not to talk to me?

You know what Jairo? There were times for the past week that I needed you. That I cried your name to sleep.

But you were not there.

Sinanay mo ako tapos mawawala ka na parang bula. Tapos babalik ka ngayon na parang walang nangyari.

Jai:

I'm sorry.

Francesca:

Stop it.

It's not like you wanted to feel that way and I know we do things we shouldn't do when we are sad.

So what is it? You said you need someone right now.

Jai:

Nothing. Just feeling extra sad. But it's fine now.

Sorry for disturbing you. Go study.

Francesca:

Pray. You'll get through this.

Jai:

Thank you.

Francesca:

And just to be clear

This doesnt mean that I'm welcoming you in my life again.

I just dont think I deserve to be treated this way.

Jai:

Yeah. Of course. I wasn't expecting it either. I did you wrong. I understand.

Be happy and successful in life, Ces.

I'm rooting for you.

Francesca:

Yeah, you too.
