00:05 I'm excited to talk to you again because I know that this conversation will be fun.
00:11 Yes!
00:12 How's the new year?
00:13 It's fun, Uncle Boy.
00:14 On the 31st, we were at our house.
00:17 And on the 1st, we were at their house.
00:19 I was assigned to cook lasagna.
00:23 Lasagna.
00:24 Yeah.
00:25 For the fam.
00:26 For her fam.
00:27 Her favorite dish is always mango greyhound.
00:30 But she doesn't share it with Uncle Boy.
00:32 He's the only one who eats it.
00:33 You're hiding it.
00:34 And you're lowering the refu.
00:36 Okay, that's Derek's assignment.
00:38 What's your assignment, El?
00:39 Just help him.
00:41 I'm the one he's ordering.
00:42 Cut this.
00:43 You're the assistant.
00:44 Yes.
00:45 He cut the mushrooms too big.
00:47 It's like it wasn't cut.
00:49 But it's okay.
00:51 But it's a big thing to have an assistant, right?
00:54 Because that's dirty work, right?
00:57 That's right.
00:58 And you just keep on reaching.
00:59 That's what a chef does.
01:00 Yeah, I just keep on doing that.
01:02 What are the rituals that you follow?
01:05 We jump.
01:06 Do you jump?
01:07 Yes, we jump.
01:08 What's that?
01:09 But I don't climb.
01:11 That's it.
01:13 You jump, you don't do the ritual.
01:16 At home, when I saw it,
01:18 I was surprised because my sister follows the ritual.
01:21 She has rice.
01:22 And there's 1,000 rice.
01:24 So I was like, "Huh? What's going on?"
01:26 That's true.
01:27 Until now, there's money in the bed.
01:30 Then there's a bed.
01:31 Then there's coins for the house.
01:34 13 fruits, rings.
01:36 I heard that Uncle Boy has a mind of his own.
01:38 He gives out money on New Year.
01:40 That's right, Uncle Boy.
01:41 No, when it's over 1, it's not.
01:44 It goes, right?
01:48 So it's a bit hard.
01:50 I said that the last time you were here was April of 2023.
01:55 I remember that you told me,
01:57 when I asked you what is your status,
01:59 and you told me that there was no label.
02:03 Three months later, you came out officially as a couple.
02:09 What's that story?
02:11 I'll direct it.
02:12 Are there any occasions that you stars are afraid to tell our audience
02:18 what your status is because it might affect you?
02:23 To be honest, we're afraid to say it publicly
02:28 because you're not 100% sure of how you feel.
02:34 You're not ready.
02:36 So for me, I can't say it yet.
02:40 And when you decided to say that we are, or we were together during that time,
02:44 you're sure?
02:45 Yes.
02:46 El, why were you sure during that time?
02:49 It was actually spur of the moment.
02:52 And I made sure that the person I'm going to say yes to,
02:57 I have a background check here.
03:00 I like that.
03:02 And I have a checklist.
03:04 Everything is checked.
03:05 Yes, like?
03:07 And I was surprised.
03:09 Of course, there's the first box, handsome, right?
03:11 You can follow.
03:12 You can follow.
03:13 You can give.
03:14 I'm a guy.
03:15 Oh, yeah.
03:16 Generous.
03:17 So all the boxes are checked.
03:19 Checked.
03:20 And there's one more thing that I didn't ask for.
03:23 What is it?
03:24 He really prioritizes me.
03:28 And sometimes I feel so selfish already because he always prioritizes me.
03:34 Oh.
03:35 Payangin, Jami.
03:36 Okay.
03:39 What is your side of the story?
03:41 When you guys were saying no label, and then it wasn't just here.
03:44 But I think in a lot of interviews, you guys would say,
03:46 "Wala ho kaming label for about a year."
03:50 Yeah.
03:51 Diba?
03:52 Kasi, Tito Boy, ano eh, parang before kasi parang napapublicize ka yung relationship ko,
03:58 tas nagte-fail.
03:59 So isipin ang mga tao, parang, "Ayan na naman si Derek."
04:02 Ganon.
04:03 Ganon yung dating.
04:04 Pero ngayon, parang dumating na yung time na, ano eh,
04:07 malaramdaman mo talaga na sure ka na eh.
04:10 With all the decisions that you're making,
04:14 lahat na mga financial, relationship, religion, craft, check lahat eh.
04:20 Parang lahat doon gusto ko towards improvement.
04:22 And because of her yun.
04:23 So sabi ko, "Ito na yung taon to."
