"You are so stupid!" she shouted on the other line. "Alam mo ba kung anong nangyayari, ha?!"
                          
"Can you please stop shouting? I can hear you, okay?" he answered. "Kumalma ka."
                          
"Kalma?! Are you serious?! Paano ako kakalma?!"
                          
He sighed. "What happened?"
                          
"Nagkita na si Lea at si Aga. Hindi mo ba alam 'yon?"
                          
He was shocked. How could that be? "What? That's impossible!"
                          
"Stupid! It's possible. Nangyari na nga, eh."
                          
"But I made sure na hindi na sila magkikita." he answered. "Lumayo na kami ni Lea and besides, Lea won't remember him because she has an amnesia."
                          
"Damn that amnesia! Eh kung sabihin ni Aga sa kanya ang totoo, ha? May magagawa ka pa ba?"
                          
"Hindi maniniwala si Lea sa kanya, kasi siya si Claire. And I have convinced her. Matagal na."
                          
"Nasasabi mo 'yan kasi wala kang alam sa nangyayari. Nasaan ka ba? Kumilos ka!" she told him.
                          
"Alright. Babalik ako sa Olongapo ngayon to check her. At li-"
                          
"Oo, lumipat na kayo. Ilayo mo si Aga kay Lea. I don't want the both of them to get back together. Mawawalan ng saysay lahat ng plano natin."
                          
"Tingin mo ba gusto kong magkabalikan sila?" he told her.
                          
"You listen, okay? Hindi panghabang-buhay ang amnesia ni Lea. Sooner or later, she'd remember everything. Kaya kailangan nating kumilos. Okay? Hindi pwedeng malaman ni Lea na magmula sa pagbagsak ng eroplano, planado natin." she says.
                          
He held his temple and thinks. I cannot afford to lose her. No.
                          
"Are you still there?"
                          
"Yeah. I'm going home tonight." he answered.
                          
"Bilisan mo, Mark. Hindi ka pwedeng maunahan ni Aga."
                          
"Ellaine, I am going to do my best."

"Babes?" he walked up to her as she cooks for breakfast. He hugged her from behind and wrapped his arms on her waist and rested his head on her shoulder.
                          
"Ang aga mong nagising, ha?" she tells.
                          
"Naramdaman ko kasing wala ka na sa tabi ko. Baka kako kasi iniwan mo ako." he confessed.
                          
"Iwan?" she chuckled. "Bakit kita iiwan, eh, bahay ko 'to?"
                          
He frowned. "Gano'n?"
                          
"Aga, hindi ako umaalis nang wala akong dahilan." she tells him again.
                          
He sniffed her neck and planted a soft kiss on it. "I missed waking up in the morning next to you. Tapos pinaglulutuan mo rin ako."
                          
"Ay, ang aga mo namang flirt."
                          
"Namiss kasi kitang landiin." he chuckled.
                          
"Okay, umupo ka na diyan. Kumain na tayo."
                          
He pulled out a chair for her. "Babes, babalik nga pala ulit ako ngayon sa Manila."
                          
"Hmm?"
                          
"Gusto raw kasi akong makausap ni Mr. Ecleo. Alam mo naman. Si Mr. E--"
                          
"Mr. Ecleo?" she asks. The name's kinda familiar.
