Aldrine
Kasi kapag wine na gawa ni Papa, hindi niya ibinibigay kahit kanino.
Miya
Oh.
Gawa 'to ng Papa mo?
Aldrine
Oo.
Aldrine (chuckles)
It's okay if you didn't like it that much.
Miya
No!
I mean, it's good naman.
Aldrine laughs at Miya's adorable attempt to defend herself.
Miya
Drine.
Miya
Tungkol pala sa . . . sinabi ng Mama mo.
Aldrine nods indulgently at her, encouraging her to continue.
Miya bites her lower lip and her gaze wanders.
Miya
I wish I can just easily oblige to her words.
Miya
I mean, I can't just say no if she wants to talk to me. Pero kasi . . .
Aldrine nods at her again, letting her know that he understands.
Aldrine
You don't have to worry about Mama.
If you're not yet comfortable, it's fine. She's fine with it, she told me.
Miya sighs and shakes her head. Her eyes are now drawn to wine glass.
Miya
I'm aware there's a lot of things that she wants to hear from me. I understand her. Dahil kung sa anak ko ito nangyari, sigurado akong mag-de-demand din ako ng usapan.
Miya meets Aldrine's eyes.
Miya
I'm sorry if I have left people hanging.
