Yes, dear?
Sorry, I just got out of my major.
My mom messaged me.
She wants me to go home this weekend.
Hmm. Bakit daw?
Mamamanhikan na daw yung family ni Noah. 😫
I didn't even agree to marry that guy!
Well, Nessie, to be honest...
Maybe your mom took ur silence as a yes.
You guys haven't talked for almost a month, right?
I know I'm at fault.
Pero alam mo yun, ipipilit talaga niya yung plans niya sa'kin, regardless kung payag ako o hindi.
Nes, love, I think you should talk to your mom.
Di kita pinapangunahan, but I guess time na to tell them about your life plans.
It's time they recognize you for you.
It's going to be hard, but it's worth a shot.
Yes, dear. Naisip ko rin nga yan.
Uuwi ako this weekend, but not because mamamanhikan sila.
I'm gonna go home to confront them and talk to them about me deciding for my own future.
Rooting for you, Ms. Rodriguez! 🤗
I'll be patiently waiting for your return.
Update me sa kung anong mangyayari, ha?
If you need me there, I'll fly to you at once.
Just focus on your game sa Saturday.
I'll be fine. 🤗🤗🤗
Pero, Nessie, have you decided already?
Ipu-push mo na ba talaga yung application mo for masters?
Yes, dear. Complete naman na requirements ko.
I already submitted my UCLA reqs yesterday.
I want to prove sa Mom na I can make it without connections. Na I'm smart and talented enough to make it.
Pero if UCLA is a no go, I'll also apply dito sa Pilipinas. Marami din naman magagandang graduate schools dito.
Good! I'm happy for you, my dear.
Tuloy tuloy mo lang yan. 🤗
Slowly but surely you'll reach your dreams.
But Axl, what if I got in sa UCLA?
Paano tayo?
11:37 AM
E di tayo pa rin. Haha. 🤗
Why? Are you thinking of breaking up with me?
Hindi naman sa ganun.
It's just that... baka mahirapan ka. Tayo.
Ang layo ng America sa Pilipinas. 🥺
Tingin mo ba hindi natin kakayanin mag-LDR?
Nakakaya naman natin tuwing bakasyon, ah.
I don't know, Axl.
We haven't been apart for so long.
Iba naman yung bakasyon mo sa New York,
compared to this. Mas matagal akong mawawala,
with no assurance kailan talaga ako makakabalik.
Hmm, Nessie, don't worry too much, okay?
We'll make it til the end. Trust me.
For now, your happiness and freedom is what matters.
Let's take things one step at a time.
Okay ba yun?
Okay, dear. I believe in you.
I love you! 💖
And I love you, too.
With all my heart. 😘🤗
