"Beb okay na ba 'to? Langya di naman kasi ako nagpupunta sa mga ganyan ganyan. Ano nga tawag dun.. batselor.. ano ulit yun beb?"
"Bachelor's party." Maine looked at her boyfriend and formed a smile. 'Ramona has a good taste, huh?' She thought while looking at RJ. 'Semi-formal looks good on him. Maybe I should buy him some more.' Her thoughts added.
"Uy beb natulala ka na naman sakin. May tinatanong pa ko sayo e. Gwapo ko ba?" He said and even gave Maine a wink.
"That polo looks good in you. I'm having second thoughts now on bringing you to the party. Dito nalang kaya tayo tas sabihin ko nagkasakit ka?"
"Uyy yung beb ko gusto kong solohin." RJ teased. "Pero kasi nagpramis na ko sa Tito Vic mo eh. Alam mo na, papa-good shot."
"You don't need to impress my relatives. They already likes you naman na. Or, baka naman your after the girls there ha!"
"Hindi ah! Bat pa ko maghahanap ng ibang babae e wala ng mas gaganda pa sa beb ko. Pakagat naman oh."
Maine gave him a peck. "Sige na punta ka na dun. I also have a bridal shower to attend."
RJ stole another kiss from his girlfriend and waved goodbye. "Sunduin kita mamaya ha!"

"Maine, you sure you did the right thing that you let RJ in Tito Vic's party?" Maine's friend, Valeen asked.
"I never doubted RJ in the first place. Besides, he already impressed my Dad and I'm sure my other relatives will love him too. What's not to love with RJ?"
"You're badly smitten, aren't you lady?"
"Guilty as charged."

"RJ, you good?" Maine's Dad asked RJ and handed him a drink.
He politely refused the drink and smiled at him. "Masaya naman po yung party. Pasensya na po kayo ha di ako pwede uminom. Susunduin ko pa po kasi si Meng eh."
Victor, the groom to be spotted RJ and walked towards him.
"Uy RJ! Buti nakarating ka!" He patted his back.
"Ay opo. Tumutupad naman po ako sa usapan e. Congrats po ulit." RJ shook hands with the man.
"Kaya gustong gusto ko itong si RJ para sa pamangkin ko e. Ganitong-ganito din ako kay Poleng nun. Alam mo na, galing din sa hirap ang pamilya namin. Pero nagpursigi ako para saming dalawa. Kaya eto, awa ng Diyos ikakasal na kami. Medyo late pero worth the wait. Oh rhyming yun ha!"
"Yun nga din po ang ginagawa ko para samin ni Meng. Pag nakatapos na po kami ng pag-aaral, maghahanap po ako ng magandang trabaho. Mag-iipon po ako para sa kinabukasan namin. Bibigay ko po yung buhay na dapat sa kanya. Nabuhay siyang prinsesa ng mga magulang niya. Gagawin ko naman po siyang reyna ng aming magiging pamilya."
"Di nga ko nagkamali sayo RJ. Tama lang na ikaw ang napili ng anak ko."

"Hey love, what are you- hey why are you crying?!" Mabilis na lumapit si Alden kay Maine at pinunasan ang luha nito.
"E kasi I was scrolling on Twitter then I saw-"
"Bashers na naman? Diba kebs lang tayo dun! Wag mo na kasi binabasa-"
"Will you please let me finish?" Alden gestured like zipping his mouth. "Okay so I saw this fan fiction made by the fans and it was so touching! You should read it."
"Tungkol ba san yan?"
"It was about you being the Kanto guy and me as the Sosy girl. They fell in love with each other unexpectedly and Kanto RJ is really sweet!"
"Mas sweet pa sakin? Pabasa nga!"
Maine handed him the phone and began reading some flash fics. They spent the afternoon laughing and joking about their supposed characters in the story.
"Alam mo parehas kayo ni #SosyMeng, mahina kayo sa Math kaya yung kinuha nyong course sa college e yung iwas sa Math hahahaha!"
"Grabe ka sakin! Parehas naman kayo ni #KantoRJ. Seloso tapos may pagka-jeje. Remember when I shuffled your playlist then I saw Stupid Love there? Hahahaha!"
"Bakit? Ang astig kaya ng Salbakuta. Pero alam mo kung ano pang parehas kami ni #KantoRJ?"
"Hmmm, ano?"
"Parehas kaming magmahal. Kung siya gagawin niya lahat para kay #SosyMeng, ako din kaya ko para sa Nicomaine ko. Dadating din yung araw na di na natin kelangan magtrabaho at magkakaroon tayo ng tahimik na buhay na gusto mo. Malayo sa camera, sa mapanuring mata ng tao, tayo lang. Ikaw at ako, tayong dalawa, kasama ng ating magiging pamilya."
"Oh my God. You really sounded like #KantoRJ babe!"
"Tapos alam mo kung ano pang parehas kami ni #KantoRJ?"
"Ano pa?"
Alden moved closer to Maine and slowly closing the space between them. "Gusto din kitang laging kinikiss. Beb, pakagat nga."
