"If tomorrow comes and I forget about this, and I forget about you, will you still love me?"
Yesterday. Love. Nothing else matters to Lee Gabriel than Odyssey Lee. If love was a manifestation, iyon ay ang pag-ibig ni Lee. At unti-unti rin yong naram...

Lee and Odyssey just finished submitting their requirements. Nandoon lang si Mizzy sa tabi nito sa buong proseso.
They have a tacit understanding of what was going on, but Mizelea supported her all the way, hoping for the best.
Odyssey never got even a glimpse of the fact that Lee submitted a death certificate of her ex-spouse, in place of the Certificate of No Marriage (CENOMAR) which Odyssey filed. Everything went ahead just like that.
Saktong dumating na rin si Perci isang araw bago sila mag-file para saluhan sila at tulungan sa mga iba pang kakailanganin. Kasama sa mga witness na dinala nila sa civil registrar kanina ay sila Eliseo, Lina at Jay Torralba.
"Uhm, you just need to attend a marriage counselling and family planning seminars later today. Sobra kasi kayong nagmamadali acually para hindi kayo mapagod, pwede naman 'yun bukas at sa isang araw."
"Hindi. Ayos lang 'yan. Let's make this day productive."
"Pinapaalala ko lang kuya ah. Birthday ni ate Lee ngayon." Paalala ni Perci.
"I know." Odyssey pinched the tip of Lee's nose clearly implying that he has another plan later.
"Tapos siguro, if you can claim your license, then you can both marry. Like the official ceremony after that." Ani Mizzy sa dalawa na magkahawak ang kamay.
"After you claim your license, you can get married within 120 days. That's 4 months." Paalala naman ni Eliseo.
"I can marry you as soon as we have it." Malambing na sabi ni Odyssey na nagpaikot sa mga mata ng nandoon.
"Halika na at kumain muna tayo." Pagyayaya ni Lee sa mga kasamang inabala nila ni Odi para humarap sa registrar.
Pero pinigilan ni Mizzy si Lee at sinabing samahan siya nito sa CR at mauna na muna ang mga ito sa restaurant kung saan nila napagkasunduang mag-lunch.
As soon as they went inside, Mizzy is already gripping at Lee's arm.
"Lee..." She said full of concern. "Malaki ka na. Alam mo na ang ginagawa mo. And I know I have convinced you a lot— ako talaga 'yung pasimunong demonyo na nagsabi sa'yo na balikan mo na si Odi..."
"You now think I don't deserve him?"
"No! I still think you deserve each other. You deserve to be together. Sa tingin mo bakit ba ako pumayag pa rin na magparegister kayo? Bakit ako witness ngayon? Bakit kita kinakausap ngayon?"
"I know... I'll tell him."
"I know he promised he won't ask for your reasons. Pero alam mong walang sikretong nabubunyag. When you filed your papers, you put your information publicly. Kailangan mo nang sabihin kay Odyssey before the truth bites the both of you in the ass without your knowledge.
