Once Tanaga finished putting down one of the babies in their crib, he waited for Ashley to put down the other twins before rushing her out of the room. "Let’s go so that I can sing many songs." He put his arms around his wife’s shoulder before sniffing the scent of her hair.
"Hmm," He wishes people as he slled his wife’s head, "Sweetheart, you sll so good. How about we make a detour first into our room and you know... Shall we not go back down there, and let’s just go upstairs?" He asked in a soft voice while kissing her wife’s earlobe.
Ashley smiled at her husband’s loving care before staring at him while frowning; she didn’t say a word while her mind was in deep thought.
’I know you, after all. Hahaha!’
She leaned on Tanaga’s chest to hear his heartbeat.

When Tanaga and Ashley arrived, the microphone is already prepared, and Arnel was choosing a song to sing while Arnold was snatching the songbook from him.
"Hey, let be the first; you’re always the one singing first!" Arnold complains while he’s still snatching the songbook.
"First co, first serve. Also, I’m the one who set this all up, so I should be the one singing first." Arnel said while they’re still fighting on the songbook.
They were shocked when soone stole it. "Hey!" both of them whined, they looked at the one who took the songbook.
"What? Any complaints?" Tanaga said and walked towards Ashley, who’s sitting beside Ann and Lea.
The two don’t have a choice; they know they can’t compete with their in-law. But they were whispering to each other.
"What do you think? Do you think he knows how to sing? If it were for our sister, I would believe, but for himself? Hmmm." Arnel said.
"We will see what he’s going to do. If he gives it to Ashley, then he won’t sing. But, if he’ll turn the pages there, he’ll sing then. By chance that happens, we might not get a hold of the microphone." Arnold replied, staring suspiciously at Tanaga.
The reason behind their fight for a songbook is because they want to impress Ann and Lea. But the case is Tanaga got a hold of it so that he could make love with his wife for the whole night.
When Tanaga didn’t give the songbook to Ashley, the two frowned because they knew they’re hopeless.
Ashley noticed it, so she acted as a referee, "Guys, how about this, let’s start with Arnel then the next person and next again, circular. So, all of us could sing, and no one would still one’s turn. What do you think?"
Tanaga’s eyebrow suddenly rose.
’You don’t want to sing many songs. Let’s see; I just need to use my brain around here. Hahaha!’

The elderly thought that the young would enjoy more if they were away. So, grandma Hanada, Ruffy, and Mr. and Mrs. Gusman decided on going to Lake Charles, where casinos are around; it’ll be a long trip, so they decided on staying there.
Tiny was the one who drove them to Lake Charles as per Tanaga’s order so that he’s at ease that they’re safe. Ashley asked Inday to co with them so she could have so fun also.
"But ma’am, how about you? Who’s going to cook your als?" Inday asked she was hesitating to co because no one will serve the two.
"Don’t worry about us, and we can handle it. Have you forgotten that I can do the chores? Also, the temporary maids are still here; I’ll just extend their days for a while. So, go change your clothes and enjoy." Ashley pushed Inday so that she could prepare to leave.
They started singing when Ashley ca back from the living room. She sat beside her husband, who was busy listing the songs he’s going to sing on the songbook that he kept earlier.
Ashley’s eyes widened when she saw Tanaga’s list.
"Ten songs? Tan, are you sure?" Ashley unbelievably laughed at her husband, and she just whispered her question, so Tanaga was just the one to hear it.
Tanaga smirked, "It’s better to be sure I can take many rounds, you’re the one who said that. On how many songs I sing, that’s how many--"
Ashley quickly covered Tanaga’s mouth and looked around if soone heard it.
"Do you really need to say it here? Be kind of discreet, please." Ashley rolled her eyes while her face was so red.
’Good no one hears it.’
Arnold was finished on his song, and Ann, Lea, and Arnel clapped. Now, Tanaga was the one who was going to sing. Arnold gave the microphone at him." Hey, your turn. After that, it’ll be the lady’s turn, make us win this." Arnold joked while he’s smiling.
Tanaga didn’t hesitate and accepted the microphone. This is the first ti in his life to singing in front of a crowd. Ashley was nervous because she doesn’t know if her husband knows how to sing.
"Mic test, mic test." He tested the microphone first. "So that you know, you’ll be the first one to hear my beautiful voice. So for the singles, don’t fall for , and I’m already tired." Then Tanaga smiled on Ashley who’s mouth gaped.
She couldn’t stop herself from thinking because she doesn’t know what kind of voice Tanaga has when singing.
When the music started playing, Tanaga breathed deeply. He then looked at his wife before smiling sweetly only for Ashley... And... He began singing his heart out.
~~Wise n say
Only fools rush in
But I can’t help falling in love with you
Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin
If I can’t help falling in love with you?
Take my hand... ~~
Tanaga offered his hand to Ashley, just like the song. Ashley accepted it, stood up, and let her husband hug her while he’s singing.
Take my whole life too...
For, I can’t help falling in love with you...
Then he kissed his wife after he finished the song in front of everybody...
