"What did you say?" ani Laurice
"I'm sorry... I...I shouldn't have done that..." ani naman ni Ty
"What are we Ty...?" ani naman ni Laurice.
"What do you mean what are we?" ani naman ni Ty
"Am I a friend, a fling, a one night stand?" ani naman ni Laurice at hindi naman makasagot si Ty dahil kahit siya ay di niya mabigyan ng pangalan kung anong meron sila.
"Is it that hard?" ani naman ni Laurice
"You're special Laurice...that's one thing I know..." ani naman ni Ty
"Special? Special audience on how you do your game?" ani naman ni Laurice
"No! Hell no..." ani naman ni Ty.
"Then what Ty? What are we?" ani naman ni Laurice
"I know what you want to hear Laurice... You're someone special to me...but I don't do girlfriends...I'm not that kind of man..." ani naman ni Ty.
"What kind of man are you?" ani naman ni Laurice na may anghang na ang sinasabi ngunit hindi umiimik si Ty. Aalis na sa sana si Laurice ng magsalita ito.
"I'm not a good man Laurice. Bad enough to lose everyone I cared for. Worst enough that I have no family left. I hurt the people I love and care for...that's why I don't do love... But sober or not...I like you... Never thought I would..." ani naman ni Ty na nakatungo.
"And so do I..." ani naman ni Laurice kaya napaangat na ng tingin si Ty.
"Laurice... " ani naman ni Ty pero wala na siyang ibang nasabi dahil hinalikan na siya ng dalaga.
"If you wanna kiss me again, don't go dare kissing someone else." ani naman ni Laurice na inirapan pa si Ty.
"You didn't just do that." ani naman ni Ty
"Do what?" tanong naman ni Laurice na nakataas pa rin ang kilay.
"That thing with your eyes. Don't do that again, or I'll punish you." ani naman ni Ty.
"This..." ani naman ni Ty ng biglang sakuping muli ang mga labi ni Shanice.
Ang halik na iyon ay nauwi sa cabin ni Ty na malapit na lang. Muli nitong inangkin si Laurice sa pangalawang pagkakataon.
Kinabukasan ng magising si Laurice ay wala sa tabi niya si Ty. Agad namang nagbihis ang dalaga at lumabas para pumunta sa kanyang silid at makapag bihis dahil nag iwan naman ng note ang binata na lumabas ito para puntahan ang mga kaibigan.
Si Ty naman ay naroon sa upper deck at nagkakape kasama sina Lex at Devon. Eksaktong pagdaan naman ni JT at nakita niya ang mga ito.
"Good morning JT!" bati naman ni Devon
"Morning. You guys are up early." ani naman ni JT.
"Yeah, habits...wanna join us?" tanong pa ni Devon
"I'm good, I'm looking for Laurice. Have you seen her?" ani pa ni JT
"Probably still sleeping... On my bed..." sarkastikong sagot ni Ty.
"You're really full of yourself don't you?" ani naman ni JT na nainis sa tinuran ni Ty.
"Think I'm lying? Why don't you ask her yourself.." ani naman ni Ty na tila balewala lang.
"Nah, I don't think you're lying but I think you're an ass. Shouldn't you be keeping that to yourself? She ain't a trophy." ani naman ni JT
"And you're the good ol' guy? Is that it?" balik naman ni Ty
