It's been more than a month since their last meet up in Darlene's house in Pasig. At sa loob ng panahon na 'yon, marami nang nangyari sa kanila. Rhian had a vacation in Japan with family for nine days. Glaiza had a vacation in Australia with friends for nine days. Rhian had another five days in Thailand. And in between, sobrang naging busy rin sila sa tapings, events, photo shoots, interviews, endorsements, etc. It was almost 24/7 work for both of them.

But with all these activities, they still kept their communication open. In fact, si Glaiza ang nag suggest kay Rhian ng mga lugar na magandang puntahan sa Japan tulad ng Nara Park, Osaka Castle, at iba pa. Si Rhian naman ang nag-convince sa kanya na subukan ang skydiving habang nasa Wollongong siya.

Ohhh, Rhian... she missed her! And finally, today is the day... Napabuntong hininga siya.

Inaamin ni Glaiza na kung minsan, napapagod na siya sa pag-aartista. Kung minsan, gusto na niyang sumuko. Mataas ang expectations sa kanya ng management ng kanilang network ganoon din ng kanyang mga fans. Ibinibigay niya ang lahat para sa soap kung saan pinagkatiwalaan siya ng isang title role. But the said soap is too draining for her. Masyadong erratic ang emotions niya dahil dito. Bukod pa rito, dahil sa exposure niya sa television ay may mga bashers din siya. It's not easy for her to handle people comparing her own show to another show in different network. Specially if these people are pinning her down personally. Although kung minsan, hindi naman niya pinagtutuunan ng pansin ang bashers. Pero may pagkakataon na bilang tao ay tinatablan din naman siya. Nasasaktan din siya... Mabuti na lamang at lagi niyang kasama ang pamilya niya para umalalay. Nagpapasalamat din siya at may mga totoong fans na naniniwala sa kanya. At... naririyan pa rin si Rhian na kahit busy ring katulad niya ay gumagawa ng paraan para magpatuloy ang communication nila.

She would like to focus on music, pero hindi naman masyadong rewarding ito pagdating sa monetary value. Mas liberating ang music kaysa acting para sa kanya. Stressful ang pag-arte samantalang stress reliever naman niya ang pagkanta at paglalaro ng gitara. But what can she do at the moment? Her hands are tied up with responsibilities. Hindi pa sapat ang ipon niya. She's not yet stable. Her family is not yet stable. Her travel business is still new and has not even picking up for the return on its investment...

Anyway, she'll just enjoy her moment now... it's her rest day. And she has chosen to spend the night with her favorite person. The loveliest woman in her eyes... Rhian.

It's May 18, Friday night. Finale episode of TOTGA. Dito sila sa condominium unit niya magkikita. Sabay silang manonood.

Nag spray siya sa paligid ng air freshener. May scented candle din siya sa dalawang corner ng sala.

The fridge has eight bottles of San Mig Light. She also has some chips in the tray.

She looked at the wall clock. It's 7:30 PM. She's ready...
