Today, 6:55 P.M.

Rafa:
Jass, what the hell happened?
Kausap ko si Maggie, but she had to drop the call because Gwen came home crying
Nagkita ba kayo?

Monty:
?

Rafa:
Exactly my thought
Nakauwi ka na ba?
Don't text and drive if you see this

Jass:
Yeah, kauuwi lang

Jass:
I don't want to talk about it.
I'll probably just nap for a bit.

Rafa:
Nope

Rafa:
If you made her cry, Salviejo

Jass:
I did. But it isn't for the reason you're thinking. I didn't reject her or said anything that would offend her.

Jass:
I think she was more disappointed in me.

Jass:
I mean, Jastin Salviejo? The resident heartbreaker? Bad news. And I understand, I really do.

Jass:
Hindi naman ako gago para pilitin siya. So I let her go.

Rafa:
Did she say anything before she left?

Jass:
No, but the look in her face told me everything I need to know. So there.

Monty:
Hindi mo naman sigurado. Maybe she was just surprised?

Monty:
And you know her better than us, so do you think she's the type of person who'll just blatantly reject you for being you? For your reputation?

Monty:
I know you don't believe that, Jass. And you're better than that—better than ending something without hearing the reason.

Jass:
I know, but I just need time. Just a bit.
To think about what I will do next.

Monty:
Yes. Because I know you like her enough not to give up.

Jass:
I do.
