Fast heartbeat, a different kind
of happiness, excitement, and time slows down
whenever you see him. These are unforgettable feelings
of having a crush. You experience this unexpectedly with an unexpected person. Like our fun story tonight. -Mom, I'm going now.
-Hmm-mm. -Take care.
-[Una] Bye, Mom. -Don't be late.
-Okay. -Dear, take a bath now.
-Una is using perfume. Maybe she will meet
with her crush. -[chuckles] Stop it.
-[Dua] Hmm... Hey. I heard that. What crush? It's not that, Dad.
She's just teasing me. Right? Hey, Una. Are you being courted?
You're still young. I'm not, Dad.
I'm leaving now. Bye. -[Dad] Take care.
-[Una] Okay. Bye, Mom. [Mom] Bye-bye. -[Dad] Mom.
-Dad. You're so dirty. [Dad] I'll just wash.
I'll be back. -I'll kiss you then.
-Okay. -[Dua] Mom.
-Yes? What's the feeling
of having a crush? Oh, dear, you know, it's a good
and happy feeling. Because when you have a crush
and you saw him, or when he smiles at you, oh dear,
you'll feel like flying. Wait, why are you asking?
Do you have a crush I don't, Mom. You know, dear, there's nothing
wrong with having a crush. As long as it doesn't affect
your study. What's okay? I'm just telling your daughter
about my crush. Who is your crush You know, my crush is so kind. He's so thoughtful. And he's so handsome. -That's why I married him.
-[chuckles] -Me?
-Hmm. Good thing you married him. -Why?
-Because I didn't. [laughs] Is that so? Hmm? -I'm kidding.
-You will not eat lunch. I'm kidding, Mom. Don't sulk. Una, who are you texting? No one.
I will not tell you anymore. Una, please... I'm sorry. Una... It's Bruce, my best friend. Your best friend is a guy?
Is that possible? Of course. You can have a guy
or a girl best friend. As long as you get along. Hmm. Maybe he's your crush
and you don't want to say it. -Is he your crush?
-He's not. He knows all my crushes.
We don't like each other. -Stop it.
-Mm... [cellphone chimes] Oh my gosh! My crush messaged!
He messaged! Let me see! Let me see! -Let me see!
-I don't want to! -Let me see! Let me see!
-No! Let me see! [chuckles] "Good eve,
classmates. See you tomorrow." What is that?
You're happy with that? [Dua] My goodness. You know, Una,
I will not have a crush. So I won't look like a fool
like you. -Dua!
-[footsteps approaching] Dua, I need you. We don't have soy sauce.
Can you buy some? No... -Please?
-I'll do it, Mom. -[Mom] Sure?
-[Una] Yes. -[Mom clicking tongue] Dua...
-[Dua giggling] -Hi, Dua.
-[Dua] Hi, Una. Come, get inside.
I'll introduce you to Mom. -Mom, my classmates are here.
-[Mom] Huh? [romantic music] [Una] This is Jennifer,
Anna, Tom, and Bruce. [Mom] How are you? Dear, I'll prepare snacks
for you. -I'm sure you're hungry.
-No, we won't stay long. -[Mom] Are you sure?
-[Una] Yes, Mom. [Mom] All right, I'll finish
this first. Do your thing. [Una]
Dua, they're my classmates. This Anna, Jennifer, Tom, and the one I told you
before, Bruce. [mouthing] Hi. I'll just get the USB.
Take a seat. [sighs] So, you are Dua? Huh? You know, you sister always
talks about you. Really? Yes. She said you're smart
and top of your class. What school do you go to? Uh... At... Over there. [Una] I found the USB. Mom, we'll just go
to the internet café. -[Una] All right. Bye, Dua.
-Bye. Bye, Dua. Bye. [Charo]<i> "Dear Charo, that's</i>

<i>out of my body.</i> <i>It felt like something's</i>
<i>tickling me.</i> <i>And the smile</i>
<i>won't leave my face.</i> <i>I thought, 'Is this</i>

<i>and dislikes?</i> <i>Are you the silent type?</i> <i>What are your hobbies?</i> <i>And how can I ask</i>
<i>all these things to Una?</i> Um... Your classmates are loud, Una. Are you the loudest
in your class? A little. They're like that when
they enjoy the conversation. I see. Then, who is the most quiet? Hmm, it's Joylyn.
She doesn't talk much. I see. Then, among the guys? Is your best friend quiet? -Who was that again?
-Oh, Bruce. No, he's so talkative. [Dua] <i>Mm. How annoying.</i> <i>She's giving one answer</i>
<i>to every question.</i> -Oh, this is so hard.
-Huh? Huh? Um, nothing.
It's... I mean... Is high school hard? Hmm, a bit. It's a science high school
so you have to study hard because the passing grade is 85. Why? Are you nervous
for the entrance exam? You can do you. Just study hard. I'm sure you will pass. So we can be in the same school.
It's fun, right? Yeah. That's really fun. -[Una] Mom.
-[Mom] Yes, dear? [Una] We'll just practice
here, okay? -[Mom] Sure.
-[Una] All right. [kisses] -[Mom] Come in, come in. Hello.
-[classmates] Hello... [Mom] Come in. Don't be shy. -Dear, prepare their snacks.
-[Una] Okay. Wow, my daughter is so pretty. -It suits you.
-[Dua] Thank you, Mom. -Are you going somewhere?
-Uh, no, just here [Mom] all right. [indistinct chatter] [Una] but how? [classmate 1]
Okay, here are your roles. Una, you are Anna. -Is that fine with you?
-[Una] Yeah. And, Bruce, you will be Albert. -Albert?
-[classmate 1] Yeah. -Let's exchange.
-Sure. It's a hard role for me. -[classmate 1] Can you do it?
-Yeah. Let's just split it. You do
the first part, I'll do the end. [classmate 1]
You will be the father. -Where is it?
-[chuckles] Look, the lines are long. -Where is it?
-It suits you more. You'll be the father. -[water container clatters]
-Oh! [stammers] Sorry, sorry. [indistinct chattering] [Una] I'll just get snacks
and refreshments. Hey. What are you doing there? Um, have you seen my math book? [Una] Book? -Ah! It's here.
-All right. [chuckles] -Dear...
-[Una] Mom, let me help you. [Mom] All right. -[Una] Thank you.
-[Mom] I need to clean up. Tell me if you need
anything else. -I'll be at the kitchen.
-Okay, Mom. Una, do you need help? -It's fine, I can handle it.
-Okay. [clicks tongue] [Una] Hey, eat some snacks
first. [chuckles] [indistinct conversation] -Um, Mom?
-Yes? Do you need anything?
I'll buy it for you. Wait. I know. We're running out
of cooking oil. Go buy some. And... Wait, I'll just list it.
Stay there. Just to be sure. [in low voice] Yes. -[Una] No, nothing more.
-[Bruce] Yeah, yeah. -Yup, we have. We have.
-[Una] We have? [Una] You're so dramatic, Bruce. [Bruce] Albert's lines are long.
Do you want to be Albert? [Una] I don't want to.
He's a guy. It's so hot here. -It's hot outside.
-[chattering] I'm sweating already.
It's so hot. Filipino, but when it comes
to reading, I can't. -I'll just bring an umbrella.
-[Una] But you're good... [Una] No, no. [chuckling] Um, okay, this one. I'm opening my umbrella
so I won't be hot. [grunts] -[Bruce] That's long.
-[classmate 1] It's not. It's still hot
even with umbrella. -[Una] Memorize it.
-[Bruce sighs] -[Mom] Dua?
-Yes? -[Mom] Dua?
-Yes? I forgot something. Add this to the list.
One dozen of egg. One dozen of egg? Okay, Mom. -[Mom] Hurry up.
-[Dua] Okay. -[Mom] Be careful.
-Okay. Dua, where are you going? Uh... Um, Mom needs me
to buy something. Nice, you're a hard-worker. [chuckles] No choice
because Una is busy... Uncle. Don't call me uncle.
Am I that old? [chuckles] Sorry, Uncle.
Oh. Sorry. I call older guys uncle. Okay. Next time,
just call my big brother. Big brother, not uncle. -All right, Big Brother.
-Good. I'm going now, Big Brother.
All right. Take care, Dua. All right. [Charo] <i>"I'm always happy</i>

so don't be nervous. You can do it. You can do it. The entrance examination
will now begin. All cell phones
must now be turned off. Oh. Um... Excuse me. Excuse me.
Um, can I ask for a paper? I forgot mine at home. Please? So I can't my exam.
Please? [chuckles softly] Here. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Good luck with your exam.
Thank you. [lively music] I can do this. So? Mom, Dad, I passed
the entrance exam! -Wow!
-Wow! -I passed!
-You're amazing! -Dad!

you can find me here. All right. Bye. [Dua] <i>Ah! I know where I can</i>

-Jayson! Right. You passed as well. Thank you again. I won't be here
if you didn't help me. Sure. Did you find your classroom? I haven't found it yet. Then let's look for it together. I haven't found mine as well. -Let's go?
-Okay. -This way.
-Okay. [lively music] -Dua?
-Yes? -Let's go?
-Let's go! [Charo] "<i>I'm happy because I go</i>
<i>to the same school as Bruce</i> <i>and I also have</i>
<i>a new friend, Jayson.</i> <i>Jayson and I are always together</i>
<i>during breaks.</i> <i>We study together</i>
<i>even on weekends."</i> Hey, this is my favorite. Mm. Your mom is sweet. By the way,
where are your siblings? I don't have siblings.
I'm an only child. Hmm. That's why it's so quiet here. When you go to our house,
it's so chaotic. I have a lot of siblings. So it's hard to concentrate with
my studies because it's so loud. Uh, if you want, you can study
here every weekend. -Really?
-Yeah. Okay. All right. You know, maybe it's fun
being an only child. You don't have to share
your toys, your food. And you get all the new clothes. -Sometimes, it's hard.
-[Dua munching] You may have new toys, but you
don't have anyone to pay with. And all your parent's attentions
are on you. Sometimes it's annoying. So sometimes
I wish I have a sibling. What if... Maybe we can... You can treat me
as your sibling, right? -Huh?
-[Dua] Yeah. You want to experience having
a sibling, I'm here. We're like siblings now. -Um, this...
-[exhales] Here. Let's share this,
like siblings. Mm. this is my favorite. It's good. -[clicks tongue] Okay.
-Let's stay here. It's better here, right, buddy? -Can you stop calling me buddy?
-Why? [clicks tongue] It's not good.
You're like a man. And we're not really siblings. -Hey, what is this?
-Hey... [stammers] -Give it to me. Return it to me.
-Hey. -Give it back.
-Wait. "From the first time we met, I knew your smile
will keep me from feeling blue. My heart skips
whenever you say my name. I long for the day
that you'll feel the same." Hey. -Give it back.
-[Jayson] You wrote this? -Is that for you crush?
-[sighs] -Who is your crush?
-No one. So grumpy. So is it? We're friends,
you can tell me. I don't want to. I'll tell you
when I'm annoyed by you. Don't be annoyed. You know, whoever is your crush,
I'm sure he will like it. -Really?
-Mm. Hey, you really know
my favorite. Thank you, best friend. You know, before I was wondering
why Una has a guy best friend. But now, I know it's possible. Thank you. [sighs] [Jayson sighs] [stammers] -Let's go upstairs, hurry.
-Why? Let's go, Jayson. Hide.
-Why? -Just do it.
-What's wrong? Hide. Stay there. Stay there. -Hey, don't peak.
-All right. -[Dua] Stay there.
-Okay. -Stay there.
-I said all right. Stay there. Is he your crush? Hmm? Who? Bruce? [scoffs] No. Why would I have a crush on him? You're so obvious, Dua. -Really?
-Yes. [chuckles softly] Hey. Let's keep it a secret. No one else know.
You're the only one who knows. I didn't even tell Una
because he is her best friend. It's embarrassing. -Don't tell anyone.
-Okay. -[Dua] Promise?
-Promise. But, you know, he's nice. And he's handsome. And he's smart too. [Dua sighs] What about you?
Who is your crush? I told you mine,
you should tell me yours too. -Uh, me?
-Yeah. [Jayson] Uh... That one. Her. She's my crush. You didn't even...
She's a passerby. Really, she's my crush. Who is it? Tell me.
Tell me, please. -I have one more crush.
-Mm. Who? -I really have a crush on her.
-Who is it? Um... [clicks tongue] -I'll tell you next time.
-Hey! Jayson, you're so unfair! -Unfair? I'm not.
-You're unfair! I told you... Dua, favor please. Can I use your phone?
I don't have a load. Here are the numbers.
Send them, please. -Thank you. I'm in a hurry.
-Take care. [gasps] [squealing]
I have his number now. Good pm. This is Una.
Don't be late. I'm on my way. I asked Dua to message you. [Bruce] <i>So this is your number.</i>
<i>Let's text each other sometimes.</i> <i>"Let's text each other</i>
<i>sometimes?" Oh my God!</i> [squealing] [Dua] <i>Sure, Big Brother.</i>
<i>Let's text each other.</i> No. I seem so excited. What if I don't reply? Then he will say I'm a snob. [Dua] <i>Sure.</i> -[<i>"</i>Nasa Iyo Na Ang Lahat"
by Daniel Padilla playing] [squealing] -[Jayson] Where are we going?
-[Dua panting] [Dua] He's really good
with basketball. -Huh. Basketball is easy.
-[giggling] [Jayson] I can even play that. [sighs] You know, you're acting like
that but he doesn't notice you. What do you mean? Aren't we textmates? Textmates? He's just sending you
group messages. But still, he doesn't have
to text me, or he can forget my number, but he saved it and he includes
me in his group messages. That's not how you say
that a person likes you too. You will know
if he gives you gifts, he's always there for you, and he will do anything
just to be with you. How do you know? Maybe you're like that
with your crush? I know now who your crush is. Huh? Who? It's Rosalie!
Right, it's Rosalie. One time, you helped her
clean the board. Oh, you like Rosalie.
Why aren't you telling me? It'll be our secret. Why didn't you tell me
it's Rosalie? -Una!
-Hey, Bruce. [exhales] Have you done
your homework? Yeah. What about you? -I didn't.
-[Una] Why didn't you do it? -We played basketball earlier.
-[laughs] -You want some?
[Una] Sure. [romantic music] [Una] I can help you
with our homework. -[Bruce] Okay, please.
-[Una chuckles] -[Bruce] Thank you.
-[Una] All right. [chuckles] Oh, Bruce, you're so sweet! You're as sweet
as this candy you gave me. Oh, dear.
Thank you so much for this gift. You just don't know
how happy you've made me. [happy music playing] You're probably inspired
because of Jayson. -So, Jayson's your inspiration?
-[student 2] Come on, admit it. Your minds are full of nonsense. Jayson's my best friend. [student 2]
Come on, we're just joking. We'll go ahead. -[student 1] Bye, Dua, Jayson.
-[student 2] Bye, Dua, Jayson. Take care. Well, let's go? Let's celebrate.
I'll treat you to lunch. I saved up my allowance
for this. Can we go some other time? Mom cooked some food at home. -Oh. Well, okay.
-[Dua] Okay. -Let's go?
-Let's go. -Hey!
-Bruce! Dua. Congrats. [joyous music playing] I knew you can do it. See,
you're in the honors list now. [Bruce] You're so great. Congrats. You deserve it. Thank you. All right. He could've just texted me, but he really waited for me
outside the classroom just to congratulate me.
[squeals] -[exhales]
-Are you sure about that? What if he was waiting
for somebody else, and it's just a coincidence? Oh, come on. You're always acting like that. You're always against me. Don't you like Bruce for me? [soft, happy music] It's Bruce. I thought we're going
to the library? Just a second. Hey, Bruce! Dua. It's good to see you. Bruce, you look like... You're going through something. [sighs] My grades were low this quarter. My parents got mad at me. [Bruce]
They compared me to my brothers. They said I should be like them. They take
their studies seriously. But I do, too. It's just too hard for me. I should just accept that I'm not as good and smart
as them. I was thinking
of switching schools. No! Uh... What I mean is, if you leave, all your hard work
will go to waste. You know, you're smart. Aren't you a representative
of the Physics Club? Will they choose you if your teachers and classmates
didn't believe in you? Well, I believe that you can do better
on the next quarter. You're that good! [Dua] See, you're smiling. You should do that more often, being grumpy
doesn't suit you well. -You look like this.
-[laughs] Dua, I'm glad you're here. [Bruce] You made me happy. I won't be grumpy anymore,
I promise. Thank you. ["Nasa 'Yo Na Ang Lahat"

a lot of people. Bruce,
thank you for inviting me here. It's nothing. I should be
the one thanking you. For what? For everything
you told me before. Because of you,
I focused on my studies. So thank you. All right. [Bruce] Hey, man. How are you? [exhales] [mellow music playing] WHERE ARE YOU? [Bruce] Two, please. Thank you. Una! Dua! Here you go. It's my treat. -All right.
-Thank you. -Here you go.
-Bruce is so kind. Let's go. Let's go. -Una!
-Why? Um... I'll stay here.
I'm kind of scared. Okay, just wait for us here. -Are you sure?
-Yeah, I'll watch you instead. [Una] All right. ["Nasa 'Yo Na Ang Lahat"

This is the last one. [soft, happy music playing] -[classmates] Bye, Dua.
-Bye. -Bruce!
-Thank goodness I found you. I have a favor to ask you. All right. I'd like you to help me rewrite
my notes. I might not finish it
until the exams. Sure, I can do that. -Are you sure it's okay?
-Of course. Thank you. Thank you
for being there for me. [Bruce] Thank you. Jayson! Jayson, you know what? I've got so much to tell you! Is it about Bruce? Just look for someone else
to talk with. Jayson! Wait a minute. Why are you acting like that? You've been against Bruce
from the beginning. He didn't do anything wrong. I thought you're my best friend. Aren't friends supposed
to support each other? Why aren't you supportive of me? Does a good best friend do that? [somber music playing] So I'm the bad friend? [Jayson]
Am I the one ditching plans? Hmm? We don't eat lunch together
anymore. And every time we're together, all you talk about
is Bruce, Bruce, Bruce. [Jayson]
It's always about Bruce. Now, tell me, Dua. Does a good best friend do that? I'm sorry, Jayson. All right. If you want, this Saturday, I'll come over at your house. I can rewrite Bruce's notes
while we study. Forget it. I'll study on my own. Jayson! Jayson! [laughing, talking indistinctly] [Una laughing] What? [Bruce] Let's go on Saturday. [Una laughs] What? -Yeah, I understand.
-[Bruce] Remind me, bro. [Una] He's kinder to me now. Dua. Will you watch our game
on Saturday? Oh. Sure! -All right. Promise me.
-Sure. [Bruce] All right. [talking indistinctly] [somber music playing] [Dua] <i>"Hi, Jayson.</i>

touching your food? Aren't you feeling well? Dua, are you okay? Are you sick? [chuckles softly] No, I'm not. Uh... I'll go ahead.
I've got something to do. [Dua sighs] [crying] Stop crying. Are you still mad at me? -[somber music playing]
-[crying] [Dua crying] Dua? Dua... Dua, it's okay. There are many
other people you can meet. Bruce isn't the only guy
in the world. You know about it? Of course. Did he tell you? He doesn't need to tell me
for me to know. I just didn't tell you
that I knew because there's nothing wrong
with having crushes. I have one myself. [Una] I've talked to Bruce. I told him to not text you
for the meantime. I also told him
not to talk to you for now. Please don't get mad at him
because of me. It's all my fault, anyway. I kept thinking of crazy stuff. I shouldn't have done that. [Una] Dua... Who would even like
someone like me? Dua, even if you didn't share
the same feelings, you shouldn't think that
you don't deserve to be loved. [Una]
You're pretty, smart, and kind. You know, the time will come that you'll find someone
who loves you just as much as you love them. So don't cry now, okay? [Una] Settle down. Why aren't you asleep yet? Well, um... I'm not sleepy yet. [crying] Mom... [sobbing] Dear, come on, calm down. [Mom] Stop crying. Come on, dear, settle down. You know, dear, loving really hurts sometimes. But as time goes by,
the hurt will fade away. [Mom]
You know what you should do? Just do the things
that you always do. Things that you enjoy. [Mom]
And when you least expect it, that hurt you're feeling
will go away, it'll pass. So this is how... How loving feels like. In the beginning, everything's so happy,
but then... In the end, it just hurts a lot. It's like my heart
is being stabbed. Mom, I don't want this anymore. Dear, listen to me. You know,
love isn't always just hurting. It's more often than not,
just happiness. Especially if you find someone
who really loves you. Just like
how much you love them. Because you know, love will come
at the right time. When you're older,
you're more prepared for it. You're too young
to be falling in love. At your age,
you should always be happy. You should enjoy being a kid. Focus on your studies first, and enjoy spending time
with your friends. Dua. Don't forget that your family
is here for you. That guy may not love you back, but we... We always love you. Yes, Dad. I love you. Jayson, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for everything. I'm sorry for not being
a good friend to you. Let's forget about that. Does that mean
we're still best friends? Dua. The reason why I was so mad, wasn't because
you're my best friend. It's because I like you. I lied. I don't like anybody else
but you. Starting from the entrance exam. Dua... I love you. I love you, too, Jayson. [Dua] But... Only as a best friend. Can't you really give me
a chance? You're not difficult to love. But think about it. If I let you court me, then we fall in love, then we break up, it might affect our friendship
as a whole. But that's not going to happen. I promise. You know, Jayson, Mom was right. We shouldn't be thinking
about love because we're too young
for that. We should enjoy being kids, being students. We should enjoy
being best friends. And, who knows? In the future, we might end up
with each other anyway. But Jayson, for now, I hope we can just be friends. Best friends? [chuckles] Best friends. Just friends, okay? [giggles] -Let's go eat.
-Let's go. [Charo] <i>"Slowly, I realized</i>
<i>that Mom was right.</i> <i>If I give it time,</i> <i>I'll forget that hurt</i>
