Dous:
Asleep?

Xochitl:
Nope

Not yet

Dous:
What are you doing?

Xochitl:
Thinking of you

Dous:
This..

Why are you so straight forward

And says things like this easily

Xochitl:
I was just being honest with myself and to you

Learned already

I can't sleep kasi iniisip ko pa kung totoo na

Dous:
I should be the one thinking about that

Xochitl:
I had fun kanina

I feel happy

Thank you

For giving me a chance

Dous:
Welcome

Xochitl:
I have a question

Dous:
Hmm?

Xochitl:
I know I'm lacking a lot and I'm just one among all of the people who've been with you

Andaming nagkakagusto sayo and I've seen them with my own eyes, I saw all those love letters and gifts on your lockers pati confessions sa soc med mo

So why me?

Dous:
Because you're my Xochitl

There might be any other people out there na mas better sa atin, of course there would be but they're not you

Have you read the little prince?

"Of course, an ordinary passerby would think my rose looked just like you. But my rose, all on her own, is more important than all of you together, since she's the one I've watered. Since she's the one I put under glass. Since she's the one I sheltered behind a screen. Since she's the one for whom I killed the caterpillars (except the two or three for butterflies.) Since she's the one I listened to when she complained, or when she boasted, or even sometimes when she said nothing at all. Since she's my rose."

Here this explains it well

Xochitl:
I wish I was beside you so that I could hug you

Dous:
Getting greedy aren't we?

Xochitl:
Meh

Bawal ba?

Dous:
Mahal talent fee ko

But since you're my rose, my peach, and my marigold I'll give you a discount

It's my turn to ask a question now

Richard? I thought you'd choose a perfect and peaceful life with him

Xochitl:
What I feel for him's purely platonic

Although, honestly, I once considered  it when dad and i talked about it

eventually, I realized I don't really want something perfect and peaceful

I like my life spontaneous

I like it with Alfred Rush Santillian II

Dous:
You're just saying that

Xochitl:
Kinikilig ka lang

Dous:
Not really

Xochitl:
Admit it

Dous:
Hindi

Xochitl:
Okay kahit tanong ko kay Gab?

Dous:
Are you free Wed 3pm?

Xochitl:
Tumatakas

But fine I'll let you off this time because you're handsome

I'm free

Dous:
I'll fetch you

Xochitl:
Hmm

Sa apartment a

Wag sa office madalas si via don

Hindi pa nila alam

Dous:
Pagt-tripan mo ba mga barkada mo?

Xochitl:
No

Ikaw nga si andre pa lang may alam e

Dous:
Yeah, at first nagtataka ako bakit wala pang alam sila Cyd knowing it was andre hindi non napipigilan yung bibig niya

But then I remember he lost the bet

Walang gana yon

Xochitl:
Deserve

Let them know it themselves pag slow sila bahala sila

Sakin lang I was giving you a face

Di mo man lang pinaabot ng 3 weeks

Dous:
So it's like this

Xochitl:
I'm kidding
