Neve: Punta na lang ako d'yan 😊 Magdala ako ng ingredients. Ako magluto ng lunch natin.
Lorenzo: I don't deserve you, Neve
Neve: 😥 Hala, ano bang nangyari?
Lorenzo: I just realized how afraid I am of losing you
Neve: Big Boss 😭 Why naman biglaan mo naramdaman 'yan? 😭 May reason ba why mo naiisip bigla 'yan? 😭
Lorenzo: It's silly, really I'm used to seeing relationships fall apart everytime but seeing this one so close to me actually do... It's making me think about us

Lorenzo: She needs me She needs a friend I'm the only one she has
Neve: Aww 😣 Lahat naman kailangan ng kaibigan kapag nasasaktan. Mabuti kahit papaano may kaibigan siyang makakausap. 'Di na raw ba talaga maaayos?
Lorenzo: It's okay with you?
Neve: Ang alin?
Lorenzo: That I stay by her side during this time?
Neve: May tiwala naman ako sa 'yo. Saka nauna naman na kayong naging magkaibigan bago pa 'ko dumating sa buhay mo. Ayos lang sa 'kin. I trust you.
Lorenzo: Don't ever go away, promise me?
Neve: 😊😊😊 Susubukan ko. Basta hangga't kaya, dito lang ako. 'Wag ka na sad ha. Diretso na 'ko d'yan. Wait mo 'ko, oki?
