“Look, Dei. You deserve a little happy. After everything you've been through.” Cai reaches out and holds Dei’s hand.

“Besides, what’s so harmful about harmless landian? It will take your mind off some stressors, and you will make an eager student happy. o diba?” Cai teases.

“Gaga. Mag sama kayo ni Paolo. Hahaha! Bahala na, ayoko naman paglaruan yung bata.”

“O sige ganito, para patas, tell him that you’re just after something casual, easy, and no commitment. Tipong friendship ekek chuchu”

“Friendship? Uso pa ba yun?”

“Eh di FUBU.”

“Di ako sanay sa FUBU beyen.”

“Eh anong gusto mo?”

“Wala, someone to talk to, someone to spend time with, someone I can call my own. Naks."

“Ay wow so seryoso?”

“I just don’t see that in him. Parang di kami pareho ng wavelength. Imagine 23 na di pa tapos ng college?”

“Ay judgmental ha! Ano ba course nyan?”

“Engineering.”

“Hindi madali ang engineering mare ha! Besides, kung 5th year na yan, he’s just on track.”

“Talagang dinepensahan mo eh noh? Close?” Dei says

“O sya, bahala ka. All I’m saying is, don’t close your doors to love. Or lust. Basta linawin mo na lang ano gusto mo.”

“Yeah, iisipin ko muna. Eh kasi naman niyaya mo pa mamaya lalo lang ako mahihirapan nyan eh.”

“Eh di mag enjoy ka lang, see how it goes, diba?”

“Okay okaaaay. Oy teka muna, can we discuss Dr. Valenza’s project already? Malapit na mag bell o.”

“O sige. Oo sasali na ako, gusto ko yung mga ganyan at makaka sama ko din mga prof sa ibang departments. At andun si Sir Dannneeeeh. Ang pogi talaga nun ano?”

“Oo actually. Chaka parang napaka gentleman.”

“May girlfriend na ba yun?”

“Alam ko wala na syang asawa eh, passed away a few years ago.”

“Ay ang bata naman nabyudo…. Ayun! Dei! Pwede yun si Sir Danny o, single, matured, kawavelength mo, someone you can talk to ayeees!”

“Ano ba yan lahat na lang ba ipapares mo sakin?”

“Ito naman imagination lang naman diba, malay mo! Nagtataka nga ako bakit ikaw ang project lead eh mas senior naman sayo si Jules diba? Baka type ka ni Sir!”

“Guni guni mo na naman Cai ha. Malay ko bakit ako gusto nyang lead, baka dahil marami nang assignments si Jules diba.”

“Asuuuus. Baka he wants to spend more time with youuuu. Haba ng hair mo 'day!"

“Ewan ko sayo. Send mo sakin yung resume mo ha, kailangan ko isubmit sa kanya mamaya bago ako umalis, sya pa naman prof ko mamayang gabi, wala akong takas dun.”

“Ay wow! Bagets sa umaga, Sir Biyudo sa gabi!”

“Hahaha sira!”

The bell rings, and they both stand up to leave.

“O sya Mars, alis na ako.”

“Halika na, sabay na tayo.”

Dei says as she gathers her things.
