Ah, love!
How come Carlyne’s not with you?
Paolo shrugs. Damn if I know where she is.
Hah! LQ kayo ano, pare?
Course not!
Ahh.. I remember, I saw her at the canteen with Wakee.
WTF??? When? Abruptly stands up.
Hahaha! Admit it, you two are not in good terms right now. Valentine’s pa naman!
Shut up!
What happened?
Nothing. I don’t know why she suddenly refuses to talk to me. Or even see me!
Hmm… strange… I saw her yesterday at the mall, buying gifts for you.
Paolo’s frown slowly disappears. Replaced by a beatific smile. Hahaha! Now I get it! That silly girl!
Carlyne’s coming, Pao.
Hey angel! Carlyne tries to ignore Paolo but he grabs her and hugs her from the back. Kisses her shoulder.
Carlyne’s smiling. Who told you???
Come on, fight with me so we can make up already. Hehehe.
Carlyne turns around and hugs Paolo. Happy Valentine’s Day!
Corny mo!
Hahaha! You fell for my ploy kaya!
I love you, angel.
Ikaw ang corny, Paolo!
Bites her shoulder. Paolo?? How come you’re calling me Paolo?
Eh, that’s your name kaya.
Kisses her. Three times before they both came up for air.
Say you love me, Carly.
I love you, baby!
