Wedding Celebration
[A grand wedding reception was held at the Cruz's mansion. Everyone celebrated for the newly wedded couple.]
Ian Cruz
Hey! David. I heard about your new released album. Congrats!
David Seville
Thanks man. But hey, shouldn't I be the one to congratulate you instead?
David Seville
After all, you're finally married!
Mark Seville
Congratulations to our newly wedded couple! Mr. and Mrs. Cruz.
Grace Cruz
Glad you made it to the ceremony earlier! I thought you'd never attend.
Mark Seville
Yeah, I've been really busy because of my business. Our new Resort is about to open.
Ian Cruz
Wow, good for you!
Grace Cruz
Huh, I wonder where Dylan's at. I didn't see him at the ceremony.
Ian Cruz
Yeah, Where is he?
Mark Seville
He called me earlier, saying he would be late, But I'm sure he'll arrive later.
Mark Seville
Speak of the devil...
[Mark saw Dylan arriving along with her wife, Tiffany.]
Dylan Torres
I'm really sorry, Ian. It's just that, something came up at the Company and I had to settle it immediately.
Tiffany Torres
Good evening everyone!
Grace Cruz
Good evening, Tiffany.
Tiffany Torres
Congratulations to the both of you!
[Tiffany brought out a small black box and gave if to Grace who happily took it.]
Tiffany Torres
Hope you like my gift.
Grace Cruz
Awe thank you, Tiffany.
[All of them had fun talking to each other along with other guests, friends and relatives.]
David Seville
Guys, you better attend my concert. I'll make sure you'll be in front row.
Ian Cruz
That will be in a few months, right?
[Ian glanced around the room and noticed someone he was familiar with.]
Ian Cruz
Hold on, I need to meet with someone.
Ian Cruz
I'll be right back.
[Ian kissed Grace on the cheek before leaving the group.]
Grace Cruz
Why, where're you going?
Ian Cruz
I'll be right back, honey. I promise.
[Ian walked towards a woman who was talking to a man when he called her.]
Jenny Lee
Congratulations to you and your wife!
Ian Cruz
I didn't expect, you'd actually make it.
Ian Cruz
I thought you weren't gonna come since you didn't respond after I sent you the invitation.
Jenny Lee
Yeah, me either. I thought my boss wouldn't let me but he was actually fine with it.
Jenny Lee
And I'm sorry, if I didn't respond because I was kinda busy with work.
Grace Cruz
I wonder where he went...
Mark Seville
[looks around]
Mark Seville
Oh! There he is!
[Mark pointed to where he saw Ian who was talking to a woman. The others also looked to where he pointed.]
Mark Seville
I think she's talking to a woman.
Grace Cruz
Huh? Who is she?
Tiffany Torres
Hmm... I don't know...
David Seville
Could be a friend or...
David Seville
[looks at Grace]
Grace Cruz
[frowns] Ian never told me anything about a "friend".
Mark Seville
I've never really seen her before.
David Seville
[whisper] Damn, is Ian already cheating with another woma—
[Mark elbowed David on his side that made him groan in pain.]
Grace Cruz
What was that, David?
David Seville
...nothing...
Ian Cruz
Are you gonna be staying here for a little while?
Jenny Lee
Hmm... Yeah. My boss gave me another mission. I have to act as a guardian for his daughter.
Jenny Lee
[nods] He has a 15 year old daughter. She will continue her studies here.
Ian Cruz
Oh... Then that means I can see you more often, now.
Ian Cruz
But, would that be okay to you?
Ian Cruz
Would you be able to handle it since...
Ian Cruz
I'm just worried.
Jenny Lee
I know, but I'll be fine. I promise you that.
Ian Cruz
Oh right, how's "he"?
Jenny Lee
Well, he hasn't woken up. He's still in a coma.
[Grace, who was watching Ian with another woman from afar, couldn't hold her curiousity and went towards them.]
Ian Cruz
I told you, I'll be right back, didn't I?
Grace Cruz
It seems you're talking to a friend of yours.
Ian Cruz
Oh, right... Uhmm...
Jenny Lee
Hi! You must be his wife. It is nice to meet you!
[Jenny held out her hand for Grace to take.]
Grace Cruz
[shakes hand] It is nice to meet you too.
Jenny Lee
My names Jenny Lee.
Jenny Lee
Oh, I've heard so much about you! Your husband has been talking about you everytime we talked.
Grace Cruz
Well, my husband right here, didn't even talk about you. So I had no idea she had a friend, like you.
Jenny Lee
Goodness, I do understand. We're only business associates and we barely even see each other.
Grace Cruz
Hmm... May I ask where you're from?
Jenny Lee
I'm from Philippines.
Grace Cruz
That's quite far...
Grace Cruz
Coming all the way here to New York must be exhausting.
Jenny Lee
Yeah, I know. I had to hurry here, but unfortunately I missed the ceremony.
Grace Cruz
That's okay. Anyways, would you like to join us so we can have a little chitchat?
Jenny Lee
....I can't, I'm sorry. I need to go now as I have some business to attend to...
Grace Cruz
Awwe, I really wanted to chat with you...
Ian Cruz
That's alright, maybe we can meet some other time.
Jenny Lee
Of course. Oh and here...
[Jenny gave her a pastel pink colored box to which Grace gladly accepted.]
Jenny Lee
I almost forgot....but I hope you'll like my gift.
Jenny Lee
Congratulations to you two!
Ian Cruz
Thank you Ms. Lee...
Jenny Lee
Well, I'll be going now.
[Jenny was about to go when Ian said something...]
Ian Cruz
[smiles] I'm glad you're back.
Jenny Lee
[smiles and nods]
[They watched as Jenny walked away getting inside her car and driving away.]
[Jenny drove through the busy street of New York City. A tear fell out of her eye and she immediately wiped it off.]
Unknown
Jenny, where are you?
Jenny Lee
I'm almost there, Boss.
Unknown
Well hurry up. I need to fly back to Philippines right away.
Jenny Lee
...I thought you'd stay for a few more days. Your daughter won't like that...
Unknown
I know, but don't worry. The twins are with her and you will protect her. She won't feel lonely...
Unknown
Since you're almost arriving, I'll go back now. The kids are asleep right now...
Unknown
Take care of the kids for me, alright?
Unknown
And don't forget your true purpose of coming back to New York...
Jenny Lee
Of course, Boss.
