Jass:
You okay, sweetheart?
Wala ka sa mood kanina.
I wanted to eat out but you seemed tired on our way home.

Gwen:
I'm okay.

Jass:
I know you're not, Gwen. I haven't seen you smile at me since this morning and you didn't want to hold my hand.

Jass:
That doesn't sound like you're okay to me.

Jass:
If this is about yesterday, I'm really sorry I asked. Hindi na ulit ako magtatanong.

Gwen:
It's not that.

Jass:
Then what is it?

Gwen:
Nothing worry you. I'm really okay. Maybe I'll just eat some sweets 😚

Jass:
But I am worried, sweetheart. Did I do something wrong to make you sad? You know, when I told you I may be bad at this, I meant it.

Jass:
I don't really have enough experience despite my reputation. Most of them are fleeting and I could tell that there was never a connection between us because it didn't hurt when it was time to break it off.

Jass:
So if I did something wrong, you have to tell me.

Gwen:
Then how would I know if this is
isn't just fleeting?

Jass:
Because with you it's different. It's real.
And if you don't believe that, I don't know how else to convince you.
