Russ

Yvanna's article filled the arena today, ah.

Vargas

Ah, I feel bad for the Women's Team.

teo

mas magfeel bad ka kay caleb cruz hahahahah kawawa na naman si gago today

Russ

I want to feel bad for him, but I don't.

Can't be good to be booed every time you're on the court.

Vargas

You don't feel bad for him at all?

teo

hindi, kasi ginawa niya yan sa sarili niya. kung sinabi niya lang edi walang issue

anyway

ano na nangyayari senyo ni reporter barbie pahingi kilig

Vargas

I'm going to ask her to be my girlfriend after the season.

I don't wanna pressure her right now especially since both of our names are trending.

But it's the game after the very high-praise article she wrote so I need us to win.

Please, for the love of God, do not suck.

teo

di ko naman gawain yan tol

Russ

Tanga. Hahahahaha

Yvanna 😾

2:54 PM

How'd it go?

saktong timing, im just leaving pa lang

it went really REALLY well

we went over all my articles, readership numbers, engagement

im in a good position right now, but not the best yet

so she told me to keep doing what i've been doing and try to land one more really big story before the season ends. something that stands above the rest of my work

...Your article on me wasn't enough?

another big one would probably seal the deal hahahah

so no promises yet, but i left the meeting feeling a lot more hopeful than i did going in.

which is unfortunate because now i want it even more

Ah, I'm proud of you, Reporter Barbie. I'm happy it went well.

You care about this more than anyone I know. You're going to get it.

And when you do, nobody's going to be able to say it wasn't earned

thank you 🥹

wait im gonna drive na

see you later, king eagle!!!

Ingat. :)

It's worse, Yvanna. I took it and I can still feel my heartbeat in my ears.

And the arena is fucking packed.

I had to leave the locker room. I'm sitting in the fire exit stairwell.

It reduces the physical symptoms. It doesn't always eliminate them.

Where'd you learn that 5-4-3-2-1 grounding technique?

i read about it

when you told me about your anxiety

it helps bring you back to the present moment

Oh

You read about it? As well as the imagining the audience in underwear?

classic but works by making the intimidating thing absurd

and yes

I get the point and hopefully it helps, but let's exclude my parents from that.

And that's really thoughtful.

What about the kiss? What'd your reading say about it?

um

the literature on that was unfortunately sparse.

Sparse.

uh huh

i may need more data

Okay. I can help with that after the game.

though there IS research suggesting kissing releases oxytocin and lowers cortisol

soooooo

What you're saying is that it's medically recommended.

i wouldn't go that far

It's basically a prescription.

meron ka na non

This one has better side effects.

MAGLARO KA NA MAMAYA NA TAYO MAGLANDIAN

Hahahahahahahahah

Thank you, Yvanna.

Now let me play.

pls do not suck

dont embarrass my article

When have I ever, Reporter Barbie?

Laters. 😉
