"RJ? A-Anong nangyare?" Maine asked.

"Ang sakit ng ulo ko!" She exclaimed.

"You got drunk last night. If I didn't convince you last night, you'd be somewhere dangerous." He answered as he gave her the medicine.

"Lesson learned, Mahal. Don't drink too much." He said.

"Teka, galit ka ba sakin? RJ, umagang-umaga, yan talaga ang ibubungad mo sakin?" She asked madly.

"What I'm saying is, you need to take care of yourself where you go. Paano kung wala ako dun kagabi? Ano? Napahamak ka na diba?" He answered.

"Kaya kong protektahan ang sarili ko, RJ! Hindi ako lumaking hindi kayang tumayo sa sariling paa, hindi tulad mo!" She yelled.

"I can stand on my own! Don't you dare shout at me like I haven't done anything good to you!" He said.

"Aalis na ko. Bahala ka sa buhay mo!" She said as she took her bag then left his place.

"RJ, Don't worry. Hindi ka hihiwalayan ni Maine. Tsaka, di nya pa alam ang buong story. I'm sure, sya pa ang mapapahiya sa ginawa nya." His friend, Jerald said.

"Hindi ko nga rin alam kung anong nangyare sakanya eh." RJ said.

"Sige, iwan muna kita ah? Comfort room lang ako." Jerald stood up then he left him. RJ continued to finish his drink, but then he placed his drink down when he saw someone very famillar.

"Anong ginagawa nya dito?" He asked himself. He stood up then he followed her.

"No... This is not true. RJ, wake up!" He thought. He saw his girlfriend, sitting beside Mikael, drinking, again.

"Huy!" Jerald said.

"God, can you stop doing that? You almost gave me a heart-attack!" He whispered.

"Sorry na. Ano bang tinitignan mo dyan?" He asked. RJ rolled his eyes then pulled Jerald's hair then showed him.

"Ahh... Teka, si Menggay yun ah! Bakit may kasamang lalaki?" He asked.

"Exactly. Why would she still be here at 11:00 PM?!" He asked madly.

"Tingin mo alam ko? Chill ka lang, RJ. Baka kailangan nya lang ilabas yung sama ng loob nya sayo." Jerald answered.

"Bakit kailangan kasama nya pa yung lalaking yan? O, tignan mo! Niyayakap pa eh!" He complained.

"Ano plano mo?" Jerald asked.

"I don't know." He sighed.

"Iiwan mo?" Jerald asked again.

"I can't. I love her too much todo that." He answered.

"Paano kung sya yung mangiwan?" He asked.

"Edi wala na. Tapos na." He answered.

The next day...

"RJ? Pwede ba akong pumunta dyan sainyo? Kailangan nating magusap."

"S-sure. You sound serious, is there something wrong?"

"Wala naman. We just really need to talk."

An hour later...

"Sir, andito na po si Ma'am Maine." His Maid said.

"RJ." Maine called.

"Hello, Mahal. I'm sorry for everything that I've said yesterday. I shou—"
