When Greeley's birthday finally arrived, Leila went to Greeley's house. When she knocked on the door, Greeley answered. He said, "Hi, Leila." She said, "Hi, Greeley. Happy eighteenth birthday." She then handed him a card. He said, "Thank you." When he opened the card, the konsiyerto tickets fell out. He said, "You got me konsiyerto tickets!" She said, "Yes, and not just any konsiyerto tickets. I got tickets to see New Religion. They're having an outdoor konsiyerto this evening." He said, "That's bloody amazing. Thank you, Leila." He hugged her. She said, "You're welcome, Greeley." After dinner, they had some cake. Greeley said, "This is the best birthday I've ever had." Leila said, "It's not over yet." He said, "You're right. We have a New Religion konsiyerto to go to." She said, "That's right. We better go if we want to get good parking." He said, "Right." The two mga kaibigan got into Greeley's car and headed to the concert.
The susunod day, Leila and Greeley took Paul for a walk on the tabing-dagat while Leila's aunt and uncle relaxed on the beach. Greeley said, "I can't believe today is our last araw here." Leila said, "I know. Vacations always go sa pamamagitan ng so quickly." He said, "Let's make the most of the time we have." She said, "Yes." That evening, they had a seafood meal. They then began packing for their things so that they would be ready for their trip back home. Greeley sinabi to Leila, "Thank you for inviting me to go on vacation with you, Leila." She said, "You're welcome, Greeley." He said, "We'll have to do some madami fun things this summer." She said, "Yeah. That would be great." They settled into their beds to rest for the trip the susunod morning.
The susunod day, Greeley accompanied Leila and her aunt and uncle on a ride to the nearest beach. Leila's uncle drove. Leila's dog, Paul, enjoyed looking out the window at the sights. When they stopped for lunch, Leila took Paul out on a leash to "do his business". A few people stopped Leila and asked her, "What kind of dog is that?" Most people didn't believe her when she told them that Paul is a purebred German Shepherd Dog. Leila didn't mind, though. She was aware that most people don't know that Shepherds can be blue, especially solid blue like Paul. Around 6:00 that evening, Leila, Greeley, Leila's aunt and uncle, and Paul arrived at the property. It was a nice tabing-dagat house, and it was very pet friendly. They were all tired from their trip. After unpacking, they got hapunan and relaxed for the rest of the evening. A few hours later, they called it a night.
Leila and Greeley had just finished their first taon of college. They were looking pasulong to the summer. Greeley asked, "What are you going to do this summer, Leila?" She said, "I'm mostly going to relax and take it easy. What are you going to do?" He said, "I think I'll do the same, but we should do some fun things this summer. After all, summer doesn't last forever." She said, "You're right. We should do some fun things together." He said, "I'd like that." Later, Leila texted Greeley and said, "My aunt and uncle and I are going to the tabing-dagat this weekend. They sinabi that I can bring one friend with me. I first asked Rita, but she can't come, because she's taking summer classes as well as taking on a summer job. Would you like to come with us, Greeley?" He said, "I'd pag-ibig to, Leila." She said, "Great!" He asked, "Is your dog, Paul, going too?" She said, "Of course he is." The two mga kaibigan were looking pasulong to their weekend getaway.
