"Siguro nga tama ka." Anton also agreed to him.

"Ang tanga ko kasi eh." Greggy said drinking.

"Buti alam mo." Anton chuckled.

"Tangina neto oh. Parang hindi tropa." Greggy reacted.

Anton laugh, "Tanga ka naman kasi." He can't help but to not deny about it.

Anton started to record their talks.

"So uhm, if may chance pa kay Irene... Babalikan mo pa?" Anton started to interview him.

"Oo. Hahaha. Matagal ko nang gusto. May kaunting hope pa rin naman. Minsan nga eh nag sisimba ako para lang ipagdasal na pabalikin na siya." Greggy said pouting a little.

"Bakit nga ba ulit kayo nag hiwalay?" Anton already know the answer, but he wants to hear it again.

"Kasi ano... Hindi ko kasi nakita yung worth niya... Pero wala akong babae ha tangina neto." Greggy feel a little bit drunk now.

Anton laugh, looking at his phone that still recording.

"Anong sinabi mo nung makikipag hiwalay ka?" Anton asked, he know that Greggy is the one who let go the relationship.

"Irene... Sorry ha... I can't give the things you deserve... The love you deserve... Mag hiwalay na tayo..." Greggy started to cry now.

Anton started to laugh more. "Tangina neto gusto ko sa inuman pag umiiyak na si Greggy eh." He said.

"Ano sabi niya?" Anton continue to ask.

"Wala hahaha." Greggy answered, "Hindi ko din alam kung bakit wala." He added.

"Eh paano kung makikipag balikan ka anong sasabihin mo?" Anton ask once again.

Greggy smile shyly, "Hindi kasi ako pala promise na tao eh, nakakahiya baka hindi ko naman magawa. Siguro ahm ganito. Kunwari na lang ikaw si Irene." Greggy went to Anton.

"Tangina pre hahahaha!" Anton laugh harder while looking at his friend.

"Irene..." Greggy can't help but to laugh too. He put his head down. "Gusto ko lang sabihin sa kanya na. I want to continue and rebuild what I broke. Gusto kong ituloy kung saan ko tinapos... Tanga kasi ako noon eh, akala ko kaya ko. Galing galingan lang pala ako." He said what he wanted to say.

"I can court her once again if she wanted to, I can do anything she want makabalik lang kami sa isa't isa..." Greggy added, before his eyes went close.

Anton send it to Irene. It's really her favor, that's why Anton recorded it.

Irene Marcos

"Okay na ba yan, ma'am?"

"Okay na yan Anton. Set up ko date niya ni Dawn. Thank you."


Of course Irene bribe him with something.

A month already passes. "Mag first move ka na kasi pre." Anton insisting.

They're on Greggy's office. "Ikaw na lang kaya. Ang kulit mo naman." He rolled his eyes.

"Sinasabi ko sa'yo, if hindi ka nag first move ngayon hindi ka na makakabalik kay Irene." Anton warned him.

Of course Greggy look at him, "Ayoko." He still said.

"Pre promise. Nararamdaman ko na kapag nag first move ka ngayon magkakabalikan kayo." Anton still did not give up.

"Pwede ka nang pumalit sa mga manghuhula sa t.v." Greggy coldly said.

"Pre. Trust me." Anton still persuading.

Greggy closed his eyes. He hold his phone and dm Irene on social media.


Irene M.

"Hello. It's been a while, how are you? :)"
"Sorry for the random text. But I hope you can read this."


"Happy na?" Greggy showed him his message.

Anton satisfied. He thumbs up, "Ganyan dapat matapang." He encourage.

Years passes by. Irene staring at the little boy who is look like Greggy once again. Not the same boy she met on that day. But her own son with Greggy.

"Alfonso tara na." She call out.

The boy run towards her, "Where's daddy." Alfonso asked, looking at his mom who is wiping his sweats.

"Papunta na po. Uuwi na tayo." Irene answered.


"Dear! Alfy!" Greggy said, getting their attention.

"Daddy!" The little boy yelled as he runs towards his father.

"You have a good time with mommy?" Greggy asked, carrying his son.

"Tara na dear." He said looking at Irene. He is still thankful specially to Anton who insist him to make first move that time.


They both find the way each other back again. As well as build the perfect family they can.
