— "Coffee or juice first?"
"Water."
"Water. Okay. Wait... Here. Okay na ba yung eggs? Di ba mas gusto mo yung mas malambot na itlog? Yung sausage ang gusto mong mas firm eh. Here. Let me butter your toast. Or... Or not... Bakit salubong na naman kilay mo?"
"Jay... Just... Sit down okay?"
"Okay."
"You don't have to fuzz over me."
"I want to. Dati naman akong ganito ka-maalaga sa'yo ah. You didn't complain then, Señorita ko."
"Stop calling me that."
"Why? Because it reminds you that it wasn't always this way between us? That it wasn't always bad? That you used to not hate me? That you used to care for me?"
"I don't hate you."
"..."
"And I do care for you, Jay. Still.
"..."
"As my friend... The boy I grew up with... That's why I don't want us to fight anymore."
"Let's not. You know how I feel about you, Maine."
"Do I? Jay, alam ko ba talaga? You're drunken words are not enough, Jay."
"I... I know... I'm trying, Maine."
"Don't. Don't try too hard. Kung hindi yun ang nasa puso mo then don't do it. Not for me. I want you to be happy kasi... I want a chance to be happy too, Jay."
"But not with me?"
"No."
"Liam?"
"Yes."
"Bakit?"
"Anong bakit?"
"Bakit siya?"
"Because... Mabait siya, sweet. He takes care of me. He makes me smile."
"Make you smile... Something I haven't done in a while."
"..."
"I want you to be happy too, Maine. I guess it won't be fair for me to get in the way..."
"Because I never got in your way."
"I understand. Kahit masakit..."
"Don't talk to me about pain, Jay. You have no idea what I've been through. You don't know my pain."
"And you don't know mine."
"I guess there's no point talking about that now."
"I guess not. Sana lang, Maine. Mabalik natin yung dati."
"We can't, Jay. Not anymore. But..."
"But?"
"We can start over... as friends."
"Friends. Right. I hope he takes care of you and you really find your happiness, Maine."
