(Phone conversation)

11:23 AM

Liam:
Hello, Miles.

Miles:
Hello, ba--Liam.

Liam:
Bakit uli 'yon? (mouse clicking)

Miles:
Oh, you're at work.

Liam:
Oo. Nasa editing. Pero final edits na lang 'to kasi may naisip pa idagdag si Magnus. 

Miles:
Oh. Uh... 

Liam:
Hindi ka ba dapat uli tatawag dahil nanliligaw ka pa lang?

Miles:
Hmp. No, tatawag talaga ako 'cause bakit ako may flowers? 

Liam:
Ah, dumating na pala. May lunch ka rin.

Miles:
I know... but--

Liam:
Ayaw mo no'ng chicken adobo flakes? 

Miles:
No, hindi 'yon. (Breathes deeply) I mean, why ka nagpadala ng flowers and lunch? 

Liam:
(Playful) Bakit, Miss Miles? Bawal ba 'yon?

Miles:
(Whiny) But ako ang nanliligaw!

Liam:
Oo nga. Bawal ba 'kong magpadala ng bulaklak at lunch?

Miles:
'Di ba dapat bawal? 

Liam:
Sinong nagsabi? 

(Silence)

Miles:
Well...

Liam:
Gusto mo ba 'yong chicken adobo flakes? 

Miles:
Masarap ka naman magluto. I'll like it.

Liam:
Buti naman. 

Miles:
But why did you give me flowers, too? Ibinabalik mo ba 'yong ligaw ko? 

Liam:
Hmm. Magandang tanong.

Miles:
Oh-em-gee... Ibinabalik mo nga 'yong flowers ko? I mean, did you not like what I gave you earlier? 

Liam:
(Chuckles) Nagustuhan ko naman. 

Miles:
Then... 'yong flowers na binigay mo... at lunch...

Liam:
Dahil gusto kitang bigyan ng flowers at lunch. 

(Silence)

Miles:
Can I give you flowers and lunch next time without you giving me anything in return? 

Liam:
Hmm. Sige. Basta matanggal mo 'yong nasa note na 'di ko gusto. 

Miles:
May hindi ka gusto sa note? Is it the scent? 'Cause they told me it's scented. Too sweet for you? 

Liam:
(Chuckles) Hulaan mo, Miss.

Miles:
Can't you just tell me? 

Liam:
Hindi. Hulaan mo.

Miles:
Why do you want me to guess? 

Liam:
Kasi masama akong tao. (Chuckles) 

Miles:
Ugh. 

Liam:
Hirap manligaw, 'no? 

Miles:
If I eliminate whatever it is that you don't like, then you're not going to give me anything in exchange for what I give you, okay? 

Liam:
Deal. 

Miles:
Okay.

Liam:
Eat well, Miles. 

Miles:
Hmp.

Liam:
(Chuckles)

Call ended.
