There are things

that only time can teach you.

Like how much you love a person.

Often, you realize how much you've

loved another only when you've lost her.

Hello, Stephen.

And when you lose that person,

you lose a part of yourself too.

Alan!

- Wait up!

- Daddy Temi!

Bring these along so she can

see you right away. Go on!

Won't I look stupid with these?

You've waited a long time for this.

Does it still matter

whether you look stupid or not?

You keep hoping

that when the time comes...

you can earn back what you've lost.

And if things won't go back

to how they were...

you just keep hoping

that time will change everything.

But how come time

doesn't change your heart?

Even when everything has ended...

you keep coming back

to the beginning.

And you keep asking yourself...

What if I loved her more?

What if I didn't fall in love?

What if I never met her?

Just so she's erased from your memory.

Can I still go on?

Good morning!

- Have the painters arrived?

- We're still finishing up the walls, sir.

Good morning, sir!

Good morning, sir!

Alan!

Daddy Temi!

I thought you were in the office?

I just wanted to look at the house.

Bad day?

Anyway, before you leave...

could you help me out

with the computer I bought?

- I got a webcam that I need to install.

- Webcam?

Do you know how?

Your relationship with Christy's hi-tech.

Of course man. Of course.

You know, everyone

has to go with the times.

Except love.

Love has its own timeframe.

It takes its time.

Look at me and Christy,

our love story was 25 years in the making.

To be in love.

Hey, you look as if

you don't get me.

Like you don't have a girlfriend

of your own.

Delivery guy's here.

- Is this the table tennis?

- Yes.

Ernie!

Happy birthday!

- Nice to see you!

- Join me, please.

Hey hon!

Hon.

Why didn't you wear

the tie I got you last week?

Does it look bad?

Daphne, everything's perfect already.

- Alan!

- How are you?

Good. Hey congratulations.

- I heard you got promoted last month.

- Yeah.

Is marriage next?

You heard me.

They say it's customary to give a speech

after dinner during parties like this.

But please, ladies and gentlemen,

indulge me.

After all, it is my birthday right?

Anyway, I would like to thank

that I have been blessed...

to have all the things I need in life.

So my birthday wish

for this year is simple.

To my children... To JM...

and to Daphne.

May you never have regrets

when you reach my age.

And like me, may you grow old

with the person you love the most.

Thank you all for coming.

Your friendship, love and loyalty...

have made my first 55 years

on this earth bearable.

Just kidding.

Hon, I have an early flight tomorrow.

Sorry.

Thank you.

Will that still take long?

No. Just finishing up my proposal.

Okay. I'll go to sleep now.

I love you.

Okay, good night.

I love you.

Can I still go on?

Can I still go on?

I hope so...

Hon, you want try riding the ferry

when you get back from Hong Kong?

Mrs. Sevilla. Yes ma'am.

I am free on the 29th.

Thank you. Bye-bye.

What were you saying about

the ferry, hon?

The Pasig River.

Let's try something different.

Maybe when the Pasig River

starts smelling different, then we'll try.

No hon.

They say it doesn't smell anymore.

Wouldn't it be romantic?

Romantic?

A ferry ride in London or Paris, maybe.

But the Pasig River?

Don't you mean, toxic?

Hon, this tie's old.

You shouldn't wear it anymore.

It doesn't look that bad.

You should change your tie

before you go to work.

That tie looks cheap.

And it doesn't suit you.

Tell him I have an emergency.

Joey, are you leaving anytime soon?

I'll sign those papers when I get back.

Goodbye world!

- No, miss. Don't!

- Pervert!

- What's going on here?

- Pervert!

Sir, this guy just grabbed me!

Pervert!

Pervert! What?

What happened?

Sir, she was going to jump off.

I just stopped her.

How is that being a pervert?

Jump off? That's some excuse!

I wasn't going to kill myself!

Here. Isn't this yours?

Didn't you write this? Look.

It's fine, sir.

- Mr. Alvarez

- Ma'am.

Ryan! Richard! Mark! John!

No not you. June! July! August?

Dear. You're tough to chase down!

I just wanted to say sorry.

It's okay.

- You find me weird?

- Kind of.

Mia. Mia Samonte.

August, right?

Alan Alvarez.

Alan. So why did you turn

when I said August?

I have to go.

Hey wait. Can I make it up to you?

Let me treat you.

- Here.

- No no, it's fine. No need.

Here. Come on.

Could we get 2 please?

This one's good too.

2 of this.

You know, it's been a while

since I laughed that hard. Thanks.

You're welcome.

Why did you think

that stone was a suicide note?

Well, it's not the first time,

I picked up one of your stones.

The notes kept getting worse

and worse so I got scared.

Come on.

It's just like what my grandma

used to tell me.

Instead of hurting people

by saying how I feel...

just write them down on stones.

Who'd get hurt with how you feel?

A lot.

Wait a minute, why did you

pick them up in the first place?

You interested in them?

I can relate to what you write.

Hold on, how many people

have picked up those stones before?

Just you. Sorry.

It's just that in Malaysia,

no one understands us.

Particularly the stones.

Malaysia?

I work there. Hotel front desk officer.

You graduated

Hotel and Restaurant Management?

- Where?

- Philippine Women's University.

How about you?

Here in Polytechnic University

of the Philippines.

- Really? What course?

- Bachelor of Banking and Finance.

Then, I had my MBA

in the University of the Philippines.

Why don't you try eating it?

Promise, it's good.

- You just keep on letting it cool.

- I'm not used to eating hot food.

In our house, the food's cold

by the time it reaches me.

You got ice?

You're funny.

Daddy Temi? I just grabbed a bite to eat.

It's okay. I could eat again.

I'll be there in 10 minutes.

These polka dots match your skin.

They're nice.

So, your dad's looking for you.

That's not my dad.

Just the caretaker for the house.

I'm here.

I'm here.

- Okay.

- Okay.

- Thank you.

- Thank you.

August!

Don't worry about your problems too much.

You can do it!

August!

Don't trust what you read in stones,

you might get slapped again!

- August!

- What?

Are you really Alan?

How come you keep answering to August?

Never mind.

Hon?

Hello hon, how are you?

Are you home? Have you eaten already?

Well, there's food

in the refrigerator for you.

You should take a look.

Don't forget to eat.

There's filet mignon,

garlic mashed potatoes...

cordon bleu, fettuccine alfredo,

chicken rosemary.

Well just choose whatever you want.

I'll try to finish everything here

so I can come back soon. Okay?

- I love you, take care.

- Okay hon, love you. Bye.

Yes hon, I'll confirm it myself.

I'm on my way to my client meeting.

Okay, I love you.

Please file these documents for me.

It's over? What happened?

It's only what? 10:55?

I texted you.

The meeting was moved to 10am.
