Love Before Sunrise

I told you that we should stop getting involved with each other.

- It seems that I did something wrong.

You interfere in our lives.

And now, you also get involved with

Stella's plan to leave for Canada.

I knew he was doing that for our family.

So, even if it was hard, I supported his decision.

Atom, I hope you also understand why Stella's doing this.

It seems like you're making me choose.

I love you, but I love my family, too.

We'll be away from each other for a long time.

Longer than the time we spent together.

I don't think Stella will accept the offer. Right?

I mean... you won't let anything

separate you from the person you love. Right?

Atom...

You don't want to go home?

Maybe you should text Stella.

My phone's low on battery.

And for sure, she's already asleep.

She got tired from getting her requirements ready.

I get you, Atom.

You don't want Stella to leave because LDR isn't easy.

But it can work.

My parents are in a long-distance relationship, remember?

Being apart made their relationship stronger.

Some couples have lived together for a long time but still break up.

Don't worry, love. Ours isn't like that.

But it doesn't matter if Stella is far.

What matters is that you trust her and are loyal to each other.

It's easy to say because you're not in that situation.

You're with Bong every day.

He sees, hears, and touches you.

He's secure that he won't lose you.

I suddenly remember the song.

What does it say?

You think the stars are gone.

But they're just behind the clouds.

Atom, when you don't see Stella,

does it mean she's gone in your life?

The clouds clear up each night, and we see the vast sky.

And the stars are still there, right?

Same with Stella.

Even though she's far away, and you don't see her,

she's ever-present, loving you no matter the distance.

Maybe that's what I needed to hear.

But whether Stella stays or leaves,

I will still love her.

Nice!

And for that, cheers.

Love, how long have you been there?

I've been waiting for you.

I can't sleep because I'm worried about you.

Look at the time.

I've been practicing...

If I get heads, I will let you leave.

If it's tails, you will stay.

Come on, love.

You won. Heads.

That's it?

Are you serious?

Hold up.

Love, what—

Here.

For me?

Mmm-hmm.

It's winter in Canada when you get there.

So, that means...

Does that mean you're letting me leave?

Love, please answer me.

Don't use the coin and jacket on me.

What do you want to say?

What? So, are you letting me leave for abroad?

Is it a yes?

I won't stop you from leaving, but I want to ask you something.

Will you agree...to marry me before you go?

Yes.

Yes!

[The sky is brighter whenever you're with me

You alone can make me feel so alive

The moon, the stars, I can see in your eyes

If lightning never strikes the same place twice,

how come this is what love conspired.]

I love you.

I love you. I love you.

You surprised me.

Is this serious?

Is this real?

I want to be sure before I let you go.

You should.

There are lots of good-looking men in Canada.

There are also lots of beautiful women here in the Philippines.

Well, we'll get married before I leave.

So they should stay away from you.

Are you sure about this?

I am.

We can get married now if you want.

Right away. Come on.

You can't take it back anymore.

Love...

All my life, I've never been

this sure and happy with my decision.

I'll get everything ready, okay?

I will marry you wherever you want.

But for now, let's do it the fastest way.

Let's have a civil wedding for now, okay?

Anywhere!

I'm okay anywhere, but...

I have to tell my family first.

Okay.

Let's inform your family first, and then tell my dad.

Is that okay, Mrs. Menandrez?

I feel butterflies in my stomach.

Mr. and Mrs. Menandrez.

There you go.

Uncle, you have to condition

yourself for your chemo treatment, okay?

Dr. Campomanes asked for lab tests

like liver function blood test, CT scan,

and MRI of the liver to make sure

your portal veins have no blockage

and you don't have cirrhosis.

I hope your chemo becomes successful.

Please recover so you can get discharged...

especially next month.

Yes, dear, I will do my best.

Why? What's going to happen next month?

Oh, yeah.

You're leaving.

That's good, Stella.

So you can help Atom financially.

But while you're still here, please help me with your Uncle

because you're a nurse.

Of course, I will.

But aside from being a nurse...

I'm like your daughter, too.

I'm running late for my meeting.

Ma'am Z!

I will take a leave for a few days.

And if it's okay, I will take a half-day off today.

What?

Why all of a sudden?

I need to take care of something.

I also need to go to the city hall to talk to the Judge.

Okay, my dad knows the Judge there.

My dad used to be a lawyer.

Really?

Can I ask him a favor?

We need to talk to the Judge so we can have a schedule.

For what?

What is this about?

Stella and I are getting married.

Wow...

I'm surprised, but I'm happy for you.

Thank you.

Stella and I will get married before she leaves for Canada.

That's why we're in a hurry.

I see.

So that's your plan.

Okay, I'll talk to my dad so he can help you with the Judge.

I'll go ahead.

Hello?

Aunt Liling...

Mom, choose a car you want

to use in bringing Stella to the airport.

I hope it happens.

I hope your sister won't change her mind.

It will happen, Mom.

Besides, Atom already allowed her, right?

Look at the cars, Mom.

They are second-hand,

but they're polished and beautiful!

Where did these cars come from?

Everywhere.

They got these from auctions.

And then we sell them here.

Isn't it hard to sell it?

You haven't sold anything yet, right?

Come on, Mom.

I just started working here.

It hasn't been long since I started.

But it's not easy because you need connections.

That's why it's better if I can go to Canada, too.

What if I talk to Czarina's contact?

Maybe I can go with Stella to Canada.
