Esmee
Yes
The two Buenaceveses are here.
God if this weren't for Papa, I won't be doing this.

Esmee
[ Typing... ]

Esmee
Chay, I'm turning off my phone.

Chay
MKAY HAHAHA
I mean, frankly speaking, hanggang dito feel ko 'yung inis mo.
But a few months lang naman right? Sabi mo.
It won't be that long.

Chay
Plus, mas malapit nga 'yang bahay ng mga Buenaceves sa bank mo. Hindi na hassle mag-drive to work.
Hindi ka na maiipit sa traffic ng Manila.
In fairness, may silver lining. 🩶

Chay
TAPOS!!! Malay mo ihatid ka ni younger Dr. Buenaceves using his Audi tutal umaasenso na si mokong sa buhay ngayon. 🤣

Chay
Parang kailan lang third wheel lang ako sa inyo noon ah?
Tapos pakain-kain lang tayo ng isaw sa labas ng Hastreid. 🤣

Chay
Joke lang po hahaha.
Baka magalit ka pa sa akin 🤣

Esmee
That hatid thing is definitely not happening.
I have a car, Chay.
😑
What will I do with that? Let that get all bulok sa garage nila for months?
Chay laughed at this message.

Chay
😭
Hay bakla HAHAHA ayan ka na naman.

Esmee
Plus, I won't be here in this house for long.
Office hours.
I'll probably be home around 7 pm.
Tapos he'll be gone naman all the time dahil nasa ospital siya.

Esmee
This won't be that hard, right?
I mean, after all, Dad's only wish after Mommy passed away is to be with his best friends in case he'll be gone soon.
Which is ridiculous because he's still strong.

Esmee
Hindi siya pababayaan dito.
Kaya nga kami titira sa kanila for a few months para tutok siya ng mga doktor every single day.

Esmee
It probably won't be that hard?

Chay
Sa kanila oo.
Dalawang veteran doctors ba naman tututok sa kan'ya, plus best friends niya pa?? E'di madaling pasunurin sa mga gamot si Tito hahaha.

Chay
E kayo ni younger doc? Hahaha

Chay
Hahahaha akalain mo 'yun.
Six years kayo noon. Almost marriage.
May singsing ka na nga e.
What could possibly go wrong?

Chay
Kakayanin ni Tito syempre.

Chay
E kayong dalawa? Hahaha.
With 12 years gone by.
Sure ka kakayanin niyo?
