Another milestone unlocked and celebrated both in Elle and Sandro's life at present. He won again as the Congressman of the First District of Ilocos Norte for the second term.





The whole team celebrated because another efforts, sacrifices and campaign journey was paid off. There's no words can describe how happy Sandro is. Ofcourse, his happiness and victory is Elle's also.





The celebration extends because Elle will be opening her dream Coffee Shop and Reading Cabin, finally! She stayed with Sandro the night before the opening tomorrow, which is also her birthday.





It's already 11pm in the everning and she is still so busy with some stuffs. Sandro then came towards her and ask for some quality time.





SANDRO: Love? Are you still doing something ba?




ELLE: Oo ehh, pero malapit na ito love. Saglit lang.




SANDRO: (hug her from the back) Hey, don't stress yourself too much naman. Sleepy eyes na oh.




ELLE: Just one last, kailangan ko lang talaga itong tapusin. Love you, Sands (kissed his cheeks)




SANDRO: Okay love. But I want cuddles. Bilisan mo na diyan (giggles)





Sandro keeps talking but didn't get any answers from Elle. She was just really so focused with what she is currently doing.





SANDRO: (whisper) Haynako, this workaholic bean. Love???



ELLE: Hmmmmmm? (sleepy voice)




SANDRO: You want milk or tea? Pagtitimpla kita.




ELLE: Okay love, please. Either the two is okay. Thank you.




Sandro then go to the kitchen and prepare a cup of tea. He didn't noticed the time that it's already 12 am, so he eagerly get back to Elle to give her the tea.





SANDRO: Love, umaga na pala. Just have this and let's go to sleep na, bukas naman....





He stopped talking when he saw Elle fell asleep already at her table. So he put down the cup of tea and carry her to bed and lie her down.





SANDRO: Hayyy, this tired bean. Sleep well Elle (touch the tip of her nose) I love you. Happy 29th Birthday!

Early in the morning, Elle received a lot of greetings coming from her family, Sandro's family, friends, and some colleagues via calls and texts.





Her whole family have arrived early and went straight to the venue. Sandro's family also followed. The opening ceremony starts and she then give her heartfelt message of gratitude to everyone.





ELLE: Good afternoon everyone! First of all, I was so overwhelmed with the idea that I turned 29 today and the biggest dream of my life also happens (she got teary-eyed already). It has always been my long time dream to have this kind of business. Kahit na medyo nabibilang siya sa leisures, but this is where actually my heart belongs. A lot of people asked me why I named the business "The Coffee Story", actually it's a long story but to make the long story short, this is what we agreed on ni Sandro. Hi love, thank you so much for always being so supportive...





The crowd cheers and clap their hands as Sandro says "you're welcome, love you" silently, but enough for the people around to see as he uttered.
