After a year, Bernard finally found his first job. Cathy was relieved after hearing this; finally, Bernard can contribute to their daily expenses! However, there was no improvement in their financial status. Little did Cathy know that her partner has little interest in her concern.
For many months, little has changed in their set up. Cathy still pays all the bills while Bernard reluctantly contributes. They are both earning the same figures, that's why Cathy had no idea where Bernard was spending his salary. Because of this, Cathy is starting to get suspicious.

After hearing Cathy's allegations, Bernard was shocked. "I don't have another woman! The reason why I'm not giving you money is because I am saving for a surprise for you!" With these words, he led Cathy to the bedroom and retrieved something under the bed. There, he showed her a passbook.
It turns out that Bernard has been saving his salary for a long time now. Because of this, he has managed to save more than Php 150,000. Instead of spending it, he decided to put it in a passbook for his future with Cathy.
