I only want to make sure we can build

this very impossible house you want.

What?!

Hello baby?

I'm with Uncle Willie and Auntie Edith.

I have to go back to the office.

My battery's running low...

...wait. I'll call you later.

I love you!

Basha wait!

Let's talk about the revisions.

You left your plans.

I'll take care of it. I'll just text you.

Basha, let's try to be professional

about this, okay?

I am being professional!

Yes, I can see that.

Why are you being like this?

Because l'm commenting on your plans?

I'm not sourgraping. I'm fine.

- There you go again.

- There I go what again?!

There!

Saying that there's no problem

when there is!

Because there isn't any.

How can I fix the problem

if you're not going to tell me what it is?

If I don't know what it is?

Popoy, you can't solve every problem.

And believe me,

you don't want to know what my problem is.

Just tell me what's wrong!

You really want to know?

It's me Popoy.

I'm the problem.

Because l'm hurting

even though I know I shouldn't be.

How I wish I can just pretend l'm okay

and that this isn't painful.

After all, I wanted this...

How I wish I can say l'm happy for you,

for both of you.

How I wish I can...

But I can't.

And I feel so horrible...

...because the truth is,

l'm still hoping that you'll tell me...

...that it's me...

...that it's always been me...

that it's still me you love.

I love Tricia.

I know.

I know.

She loved me at my worst.

You had me at my best.

And you threw it all away.

Is that what you really think?

Popoy, I just had to make a choice.

You chose to break my heart.

I give up!

Let me go, l'll kill you all!

- Damn love!

- Chi, that's enough. It's just a girl.

What happened?

Cathy left him.

Tried to kill himself with 3 bottles of...

Damn that shampoo!

I should be dead by now!

Take me Lord!!!

Chinno, it's not the end of the world!

You say that because you

don't know how I feel!

Chi, we're here for you, we understand...

You don't understand me!

Only Popoy understands me!

Where's Popoy?

Popoy?

Popoy. man.

I don't know.

I give up.

I didn't know it could hurt this much.

I give up!

- Take me Lord.

- Chinno, you can do it.

If I got through it,

you can get through it.

Remember, when it was me

in that hellhole?

You said maybe the ones

we love leave us...

...because someone else is supposed

to come into our lives...

...and they'II Iove us more.

They won't hurt us or leave us.

She'II be the one to right

all the wrongs in our Iives.

I thought you were at the hospital...

JP's there.

Here are the plans.

They're all done.

If you want to change something,

you don't have to consult with me.

You know what to do.

You always have.

Popoy...

I'm sorry...

I'm really really sorry.

I'm sorry because I hurt you.

I didn't mean to.

I'm sorry.

I just got married

and you stopped talking to me.

How I wish I could turn back time

so I can fix all my mistakes...

Bash, don't ever think it was a mistake

that you chose to find yourself...

...that you chose to love yourself

a little bit more.

I know Popoy got hurt but you said sorry

for that already, right?

Besides the break up

did both of you good.

Bash, sometimes it's better

for two people to break up...

...for them to grow up.

It takes two grown-ups

to make relationships work.

You think l'm a grown-up?

Bash, you can now face anything

that will come your way.

My song for you is done.

Will you read it for me.

I Iove you

and I will tell you everyday...

Everyday until you forget

the things that hurt...

And how I wish I could take them away

If only it could be done...

But it can't be done.

I can't do it, Popoy.

Because you won't let me.

Popoy just say it.

Trish...

There's no easy way to do this...

...because it already hurt too much.

So just please tell me the truth.

PIease...

Do you love me?

Trish, you know I love you.

Do you love her?

I can't stand seeing you hurt.

So if you hurt me, you won't see.

Do you love her?

I'm sorry.

Do you want us to end this?

Can you still forgive me?

You're not the only one who got hurt.

Basha was hurting too and we saw that.

She went through hell...

...because she was the only one

brave enough to face the truth...

...that there was something wrong

with your relationship.

She never wanted to hurt you.

You got hurt only

because you wouldn't freely...

...give her what she was asking of you.

Don't you see?

If she didn't choose herself

and she let you take control everything...

her heart would have been broken

every moment she was with you...

...until nothing would have been left

of the Basha you loved.

Is that what you really want Poy?

The question is, do you still love her?

That never changed.

I'm just not sure if love is enough.

Your mom said you were here.

I'm leaving for Qatar.

My contract is for two years.

How about Tricia?

We're through.

She broke up with me.

I'm sorry Poy, l'm so...

No.

I'm sorry.

Sorry for not saying sorry

before when I hurt you.

When we broke up

I only thought of myself...

...my feelings, what I wanted.

Sorry if I became selfish.

I couldn't understand that you needed

to find the Basha...

...who got lost when you loved me.

The Basha who still loves you.

You don't know how much I want...

...for it to be us again...

...for it to still be us.

But every time I feel

how much I love you...

I can't help but feel

the pain all over again.

And l'm sorry for that.

What should I do?

It's me Bash.

I'm the one who needs time to think

so I can forget all the pain.

So I can remember

all that was beautiful about us.

So that the Popoy who got lost

when we broke up can find his way back.

Bash, I want my heart to stop breaking.

So that if we ever get back together...

...I can love you again

with my whole heart...

...without fear

that we might get hurt again.

Have I approved the lay out

of these wall settings?

Where are the approved plans?

Let's double check.

Then, can you mark the reference

elevation for the floor finish?

We're good with the 8th floor.

Can you check the other floors

if the Iay-out was followed?

Just report them to me after the break.

Beautiful building.

You know the architect?

Yeah.

Um, would you know

if she's free for coffee?

I want to tell her

about the buildings I saw in Qatar.

Coffee?

When?

Right now.

You think she's free?

Yeah, I think so.

You think she's free for dinner?

I've been gone two years.

I missed her.

There's so much I want to say.

I think she'd love

to have dinner tonight...

...then tomorrow night...

...then the night after that...

Are you sure?

Because l'm in this for the long haul.

You're not leaving anymore?

Never again.
