It Takes a Man and a Woman Page #6

on the tourist sites of New York City?

It's been a while.

You and Laida should join us tomorrow.

Yeah, yeah. Join us. Come on.

No, no. Thank you.

Why not?

Because of a promise

I made to a very special girl.

I promised her that the next time

I visit those places...

it's gonna be with her.

That's funny.

You know, I know for a fact that Laida

hasn't been to those tourist spots either.

Yeah ?

Why?

Well, she says it's because she only

wants to go there with her one true love.

Like you promised.

I think destiny has a hand on this.

Maybe those promises are meant

to be fulfilled to each other.

Ben I?

Eat.

Just eat.

Okay.

It's so cold.

- Can ljoin you there?

- Do you want here?

- Do you want here?

- Is it okay?

It's okay but...

- Do you want to put...

- Sure, it's okay.

Laida.

Hmm?

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

And thank you.

Thank you for letting me

get to know the new Laida, too.

Okay. Goodnight.

Goodnight.

We can just...

sleep facing the edge, right?

There!

Goodnight.

Okay.

I'm going to shower

and then you will shower-

Before me- I mean, after me...

Hurry up we can't be late good morning!

Good morning.

Sir.

Long time no see.

Missed me?

Sir.

You better stay close to me.

How close?

Hello... Ma'am.

We're actually on our way, ma'am.

Okay.

I see.

Why are you still here? I thought

you guys have an early meeting today?

It was postponed

until tomorrow morning.

The boss had an urgent meeting...

that's why.

That's too bad.

Hey!

Remember what I said last night'?

Miggy! -

Look's like fate's working, huh ?

He has a point, right?

What?

Let's do it!

Do what?

What I should've done

when I had the chance.

Take you out to see New York.

Ahh.

No. You don't have to.

Who's the boss here?

Fine...

I'll just wear what I should've worn

when I had the chance.

Okay?

Where do we go first?

Ready?

Can you do it?

So easy!

So much fun!

Why isn't anyone noticing me?

Laida.

Hooray!

- Do you understand the game?

- Sort of.

N'), no!

We're not a couple.

Let's wait for him

at the backstage exit!

My baby?

MY baby, how are you?!

- I'm good.

- We missed you.

- Where do you live now?

- Introduce your friend to us.

Gotta go.

We're trying to catch Ricky Martin.

Goodbye Aunt Angie.

Nice meeting you.

Sorry.

Let's go there.

Too bad!

We're too late...

We didn't see Ricky Martin.

Let's go home.

Hey! Let's go.

Miggv!

I think I'm being possessed!

And I can't stop it!

I'm livin' la vida Laida!

Who told you that

you need Ricky Martin?

Who told you that, huh?

Oh, my God! It's Miggy Martin!

Everyone! Come on! It's Miggy Martin!

Whoa! Come on!

Let's go?

I told you.

You don't need Ricky Martin!

Of course! I have Miggy Martin

over here, you know?!

. Bye, boys.

- Thanks, guys!

He really is Miggy Martin, you know!

Bye!

Good morning, Mr. Montenegro.

Rise and shine! Big day today!

Get up! We're gonna be late!

Okay.

Getup!

Sir?

Coffee'?

Wait...

You 're welcome.

Let's have breakfast.

Hmmm... That was perfect.

What's this?

Don't read that! It's nothing!

Let me just see it.

- They're my presentation notes!

- But it's a scrap of paper.

- It's just a note, right? Let me see it!

- Those are just my notes...

for the meeting later.

- Let me see!

- Give it to me. Stop it.

Good morning, handsome.

Good morning, handsome.

Yeah. Well you really are handsome.

- Yes? Hello.

- Hi.

Hi, Laida. I forgot my cell phone.

Your Filipino friend

is looking for you.

Come on. Please come in.

Surprised?

Belle.

Your EA told me where

I can find you guys.

I'll just take a shower.

Good thing I found out from Zoyla

that the meeting was moved.

I still made it.

- Guys, I'll go ahead.

- Okay.

Mikky texted to remind us

about the reunion tomorrow.

Let's go home?

Okay?

Dad, I'm sorry it took me

a while to forgive you.

I should be the one apologizing to you.

I'm sorry for the mistakes I made.

Please forgive me.

Let's start over.

Yes Dad.

- I love you Dad.

- I love you too.

My girl has turned into a woman.

Look at you!

I'm used to always

seeing you so pretty.

My hair's all messy.

I have a comb over there.

Where?

- I missed you Dad. And I'm sorry.

- Thank you, my child.

Belle, looks like your date

came a little too early.

Guess he didn't want

to be late this time.

Hey.

Board meetin g's can celed?

No.

You must have something important to say

that you just can't wait until tonight.

I went to your house

but you weren't there.

I kept calling you, but...

Change of plans?

Yes.

It's still Laida, isn't it?

Yeah.

Hey.

Hey.

This is probably how you felt

when I broke up with you before.

Painful,huh?

Tough luck for me...

If I had just stayed in the States

instead of coming back for you...

then I would've been

the one that got away.

But it turns out...

you're my one who got away.

And I'm just the girl

you chose to let go.

I'm sorry.

One last favor.

Please tell Laida that I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for assuming

I could take her place.

And consider this my two weeks' notice.

I'm sure it would be too hard

for you to work with two exes.

Excuse me.

I'm no! optimistic.

Their biggest question remains

to be about our financial capacity.

So you were not able to convince Empire

that you're worthy of their trust?

I trust Miguel enough to wait

for Empire's decision to...

And what will happen

if we don't get Empire?

I take full responsibility

for everything.

Brother.

No.

Should Empire reject my offer,

I will immediately liquidate all my assets

and all my shares in this corporation...

to pay for everything it can.

So I can pay

for the investments I lost.

That's unacceptable.

That will leave you with nothing.

I've been through worse.

I just can't let my family suffer.

Please put that on record.

Can I be excused?

After stu dyin g your reports,

we're very sorry but we can't

grant you the license to publish MET.

However...

we are greatly impressed

by the presentation and your team.

So...

We decided io oer

a partnership, instead.

But there is a condition.

There is one condition.

We want Laida back here.

We wan! her to come back here and

work here full time in New York at Empire.

Now, should you accept this offer...

we wit! proceed to finalizing

the other details of the contract.

Congratulations!

Ladies and gentlemen.

Let's all welcome our new partners

from Empire Media Corporation.

Mr. Frank Taylor, Mr. Andy Miller,

and Mr. David Brown.

Good evening, everyone.

Tonight's such a great night

to be part of this company.

I should be saying a speech

to welcome our new partners.

But then I thought only one man

can tell us what this company is about.

What this family is about.

The heart and soul of the Montenegro

Group of Companies,

our late father, Luis Montenegro.

Thank you for that warm applause.

A few days ago...

A writer interviewed me...

and he asked me,

"Sir, what legacy

do you want to leave behind?"
