From Sara Bareilles' Gravity:

Something always brings me back to you.

It never takes too long.

No matter what I say or do

I'll still feel you here 'til the moment I'm gone.

Sa kotse ni Logan...

Gan: (pinagbuksan ng pinto si Audrey, hinatid siya hanggang sa gate ng bahay) Pasensya ka na sa nangyari kanina.

Audrey: Okay lang.

Gan: Kanina ka pa tahimik. Imposibleng okay lang.

Audrey: Well, oo. Hindi okay. Pero hindi ako galit sayo. Naiintindihan ko naman kung bakit hindi mo sinabi.

Gan: Thank you.

Audrey: Mahal mo pa ba siya?

Gan: Importante pa ba yun?

Audrey: Kung sayo hindi, sa akin oo. Gan, gusto kita. Gustong gusto. But not to the extent that I will allow myself to get in the middle of you and your ex.

Gan: There's nothing going on between us. Nung sinabi ko sayo na bestfriend ko siya, totoo yun. That's all we are now. Magkaibigan.

Audrey: Pero hindi yun yung naramdaman ko kanina. Look, Gan if I will start something with you, gusto ko magsimula ng tama.

Gan: Audrey, sa ilang linggo na halos araw araw mo kong kasama, do you honestly think na gagawin lang kitang panakip butas?

Audrey: You have a good heart at alam ko hindi mo ko gagawing rebound but I don't want to be second best. Tell me, kung single si Mo ngayon, will you still go out on a date with me and give us a real chance? (natahimik si Logan) Ok. Wag mo na sagutin.

Gan: I'm really trying.

Audrey: (niyakap si Gan) I know you are. And it saddens me to see such an amazing guy like you suffer like this.

Gan: I really wanted to start with you.

Audrey: I wanted that too but I hope you understand na iniingatan ko lang din sarili ko. Tigilan nalang muna natin habang hindi pa malalim yung nararamdaman ko sayo. One day, when you wake up and realize that you're completely over her and there are no more hanging issues between the two of you, you know where to find me. You're a good guy, Logan. I mean it. But I can't date you while she's in your life.

Gan: I understand.

Audrey: (kissed Logan on the cheek) Good night.

Sa kotse ni Vince...

Vince parked his car in front of Moira's house. Ilang minuto din bago may nag-initiate sa kanilang dalawa na magsalita.

Mo: Are we okay?

Vince: Hindi ba dapat ako nagtatanong sayo niyan? (hindi matingnan si Mo)

Mo: (tinanggal yung seatbelt niya, tumingin kay Vince) Galit ka ba?

Vince: Should I be?

Mo: Vince, please naman oh. Kausapin mo ko ng maayos.

Vince: (tumingin kay Mo, kalmado ang tono) What do you want?

Mo: Sinasagot mo ko ng tanong. Papano tayo magkakaintindihan?

Vince: Pinakawalan na kita but you pulled me back. I gave you a chance. I gave us a chance. Pero bakit hanggang ngayon nararamdaman ko pa rin na may kaagaw ako sayo?
