Calling Britneeey...
Britneeey:
Nakauwi ka na?
Amanda:
Yep. Umiinom sila kuya.
Britneeey:
Di ka sumali?
Amanda:
Of course, not. Ano na naman
katangahan gawin ko.
Britneeey:
Pano magkaka-progress, girl,
kung 'di ka magte-take ng risk?
Amanda:
And the risk is my dignity?
No, thank you.
Britneeey:
Are we talking about the same
dignity?
Amanda:
Oh, my god, Britney!
Britneeey:
What? Just making sure. Kasi
if we're talking about the same
dignity, ipu-push kita.
Amanda:
Shut up. Ang dumi mo.
Britneeey:
You're no saint, either.
Amanda:
That didn't count.
Britneeey:
It doesn't work that way.
Gaga.
Amanda:
Technically—
Britneeey:
Technically, you're still a
virgin, yes. But does it cancel
the fact what you did?
...
Oh, 'di ba? Speechless ka, girl.
Amanda:
Are we gonna continue talking
about that douchebag?
Britneeey:
Duh. Walang spicy nangyari
tonight?
Amanda:
No. I told you na, 'di ba? I can't—
Britneeey:
I know. Pero just like I said din,
'di ba? Preparation lang, girl.
Flirt with him, but still keep your
distance. Five months will be up
before you know it. Look how fast
the time is. Ilang weeks na kayo
ngayong sem? Am I not making
any sense?
Amanda:
It's not like I haven't made
progress either.
Britneeey:
Calling him by his name barely
counts. You're his best friend's
little sister. Normal lang 'yan.
Amanda:
How about 'yong pumunta ako sa
condo n'ya?
Britneeey:
Ah. When he was barely conscious
and doesn't even remember most
of it? Proud ka na n'yan?
Amanda:
Sabay kaming pumunta ka sa
resto.
Britneeey:
Honestly, kung di ka n'ya niyaya,
I'd call him rude. Sa'n ka sumakay
pauwi?
Amanda:
Kina Dad.
Britneeey:
I can hear your pout.
Amanda:
I'm not. Yes, Mom? Brit, teka lang.
I'll call you back.
Britneeey:
Hmm.
Call ended.
Calling Britneeey...
Britneeey:
I'm eating.
Amanda:
Your plan sucked.
Britneeey:
Plan? What—
Amanda:
'Yong ID ko.
Britneeey:
What's wrong with it?
Amanda:
Some good Samaritan called my
emergency contact, A.K.A. my mom,
and said nakita nila ID ko sa parking
lot ng CTC.
Britneeey:
Hoy, girl. I'm not the one who
dropped your ID.
Amanda:
I double-checked kaya kanina. It was
on the floor of his car, by the door–oh.
Britneeey:
What, what?
Amanda:
I'm speculating kasalanan ni kuya.
Britneeey:
Pa'no nasama kuya mo dito?
Amanda:
He borrowed Jax's car for a bit to
pick up Patricia.
Britneeey:
That's out of my control, hun.
Sila na ba?
Amanda:
I don't think so. 'Friend' pakilala
ni kuya, eh.
Britneeey:
Ah. Anyway...
