The five nominees have already been given back their luggage to pack. Four of them will be fortunate enough to unpack their things tomorrow night, and one will unpack at home. Jieriel, Linda, Priscilla, Valerie and Josef try to keep things as normal as possible. All housemates tried to keep things light and easy, as if laughing and eating would make the night longer and tomorrow come slower, if it should come at all.
Jieriel willed her slippers to the housemates, to be left behind as a reminder of her presence in the house. She knew everyone will have to be evicted, and she accepts it fully, except that she would miss the housemates and being in Kuya’s house herself. Amidst, mini sobs and sniffles, Jieriel reminded the boys to behave and pick up after themselves. Ejay finally got to talk to Valerie, as the Dazzling Doll shared her frustrations and disappointments, mostly with herself. She fears letting her mom down, especially after her mom has had high hopes pinned on her. Valerie felt that she still hasn’t done and given much, which has her frustrated at the possibility of being given the boot. Priscilla exchanged sentiments with Rona, quite calm as she explains (more to herself than to Rona, probably) that entering PBB, all knew it was a competition, and as such, there will always be those who lose. Being in Kuya’s house was a blessing already, because it had helped her in many ways. PBB is about molding people into better persons, and that has already started with her. Josef spent some time alone with Nikki, sharing small talk. Asked for one thing she would miss once Josef gets kicked out, Nikki remained mum and refused to answer. She even denied the obvious tears and Josef graciously let her be. They instead opted to talk about safe topics and plans for Nikki’s birthday and such trivial stories.
How long will this supposed status quo last? Not for long, definitely. There won’t be a dry eye in the house, no matter who gets evicted first. No sweet dreams for anyone. One can only hope for a dreamless and peaceful shut-eye, as all need their rest for the coming day. As Josef said, it’s going to be loooong day ahead. Sleep tight, housemates.
