♫Oh, my love♫

Hi! I'm Charming Charlie!

Eigtheen years old.

I'm currently taking up Mass Comm,

"MassComfortable" staying at home.

Instead of doing nothing at home, I'd rather vlog.

I'm not that famous yet but I'm sure

I'll get there.

Everyone will know my name.

My favorite subject as a kid was English.

But when we had our Spelling Bee, I spelled English as

E-N-G-L-I-G.

I got so embarassed.

So it’s not my favorite subject anymore.

That's why--

-(car horn) -(scream)

Can't you see I'm vlogging?!

Ehh, I'm going to move aside.

My favorite project during Home Economics was when we needed to plant pechay.

Do you know that pechay is the easiest to cultivate?

You can harvest it four to six weeks.

Oh, I'm being such a nosy neighbor.

Sir, just put some of the plants here.

And the other plants, there.

The other boxes kindly put over there and inside the house. Please include the chairs as well.

Okay.

We have a new neighbor.

-Okay. Good. -Sir, I got this.

Infairness huh.

So this is our house.

And this is the house of the new hot neighbor.

Okay, I think everything's complete.

I think he sees us, guys.

Uh, do you want another peek?

(teasing)

Wow!

-Dad, use some gloves. -Oh, son, thanks.

Are you done with your vlog?

-Yes, dad. -What's your vlog about this time?

-It's about my favorite subject when I was a kid. -Oh.

Won't you ask me what my favorite subject is?

-What was yours? -Math!

-Math? -M-A-T-H.

Merienda, breakfast, lunch, dinner. Math!

(laughs)

You know what, dad? I just noticed,

ever since mom passed your jokes have become corny.

Just help me with this because it will be picked up in a while.

Oh by the way, we have a new neighbor.

-He just moved in. -That’s good.

At least you'll be seeing someone when you look out your veranda

and not your imaginary ghost.

He seems to be fond of plants. I saw them unload a lot of plants when he was settling in.

-He seems to be a plantita. -Plantita? What do you mean?

People who are fond of gardening during the pandemic.

-What if he's a man? -Plantito.

What about the likes of you?

I've got it! Plantitoa!

(laughs)

-Just kidding! -Ouch!

That's got to be your last joke, dad.

Hurry up.

Keep fighting!

Sooner or later, my videos will trend and my channel will be monetized.

Good morning, neighbor!

Welcome to the neighborhood!

Hi!

Hi!

Ah, he really is a plantito but a bit snobbish.

Doesn't matter, we'll still end up being friends

because we'll see each other eveyday.

I'll be able to tame you. If was able to tame my Home Economics teacher, I can tame you too.

Why are you glowering?

Dad, didn't we agree that we won't accept orders during Sundays?

We're supposed to be resting.

I didn't want to waste the order. It's Deputy Mameng's birthday.

That’s still three whole baskets.

But still.

This is the only thing that keeps me occupied and still you want to oppose me.

This is how I was able to make a living for you and your mom.

-Dad, mom’s already gone. -I meant, when she was still alive.

This is our way to make a living and you still complain.

All you have to do is squeeze those coconuts.

I'm not complaining. I'm just saying that you can't be working the whole week.

You also have to rest.

We need to rest.

Just give those coconuts.

Go on, get back to your room and lay down again!

I am telling you, someday you are going to inherit this.

And it will help you when I’m gone and you start your own family.

Dad, stop sulking.

Go ahead.

If you continue with that mood, the food might turn out bad.

You keep on complaining.

Dad, my point isn't about you making rice cakes.

My point is, Sunday is supposed to be a rest day.

Besides, it’s not my dream to make rice cakes.

I want to be a famous vlogger.

Famous vlogger or plantito?

What does that have to do with this?

Well, you keep monitoring our neighbor.

I see you whenever I'm hanging the clothes.

Have you met him already?

Not yet. But we'll get there.

You’re in luck then, we’ve already met.

His name is Mico.

-How? -I talked to him.

-Who initiated the conversation? -I did.

We both went to buy at Bonjang's store at the same time yesterday.

He seems nice, elegant, like an actor.

-Oh, why are you shaking? -No I’m not!

-You just got caught. -I told you, am not!

I miss you, BFF!

-What are you doing here? -It has been six months since we last met, we need to catch up!

That's why I thought of surprising you.

Tada! I'm here!

Wait, don't you have class?

Wait a minute, don’t you know it’s Sunday?

Do you think I'm studying to be a nun that I have to go to class on a Sunday?

Didn't you miss me?

Relax, I was just asking.

Oh gosh! Don't you know that since you stopped going to school I have no one to talk to?

I don't have anybody to come with me during breaks.

Sometimes I'd like to think that you are just absent for a lot of days.

Hoping that maybe next semester you'll return and won't leave me anymore.

Let's not talk about that. It’s too far in the future.

Maybe when I do get back, you've already graduated or taking up your masters.

What are you doing anyway asides from vlogging?

I'm helping out my dad with his rice cake business.

Infairness, he gets a lot of orders daily.

You know what? I'm actually a fan of your vlogs.

Charming Charlie Speaks.

You're really a vlogger now!

You know, Bianca, you’re not fooling me.

Because,

if you're really a legit subscriber,

what's my latest vlog?

Oh God, BFF, you really need proof? Okay.

Your latest vlog is about your favorite subject when we were kids.

The one about pechay. See? Stop challenging me.

You're my certified bestfriend.

-Correct! -You're supporting me even if I have nonsense content.

Correct!

Oh so you admit that my content is nonsense?

I didn't mean it that way,

It's just that um...

something’s lacking.

Why don't people dig my videos?

I just want my videos to trend.

Come on. Charlie, you are charming.

It's just that maybe you need something strong in your content.

You get me?

What if you collaborate with famous vloggers?

I've already tried that.

I've been rejected a lot of times. I don't want to embarrass my self any further.

Maybe I need to have a million subscribers for them to collaborate with me.

That’s how it is, bestfriend.

You're really on your own when you're starting out.

You need to create a name for yourself before famous vloggers get to trust you.

Hear me out,

just focus on creating new and good content

Speaking of new, who is that fresh face on the veranda?

Oh, he's our new neighbor.

I think his name is Mico? He's a plantito.

New neighbor? A good-looking plantito?

(screams) Hot!

-You’re too noisy! -Friend,

you have your new content!

Enjoy!

Who are you staring at? Our new neighbor?

-Of course not! You're jumping into conclusions. -Oh, come on!

What can I get from that?

Dear, I'm not asking if you'll gain anything.

I'm asking you, who were you staring at.

I'm thinking in advance. I know how your mind works.

Besides, I'm not waiting for anything.

So why do you keep staring at his veranda?

Of course, I’m standing in front of your store like this so I’ll look at that direction while drinking my softdrinks.

Come on, you just don't want to admit it.

Do you know that all the women in this street

are interested on Mico.

Don't you find him good-looking?

-Sure, he is. -See?

But, Ms. Bonjang, I am not fascinated by his looks.

It's his plants, I am interested of his plants.

Oh, plantito.

Why don't you make him a part of your vlog?

You know, Ms. Bonjang, I've already thought of that.

You really are an advanced thinker.

-Such a smart kid. -You know it!

I got to go, you keep on gossiping.

I might end up hearing gossip about me.

-Hey! My gossips are legit. -That’s what’s making me nervous.

Bye, Ms. Bonjang!

The kid's pretending. He's denying it even if he's caught.

-Dad? -Yeah?

He's name is Mico? What's his last name?

Are you going to add him on Facebook?

I'm just going to have a look.

So why are you interested?

Didn't I tell you that I want to go back in taking care of plants?

Just like during my Home Economics class.

He's inspiring me to go back to my roots.

Maybe he has tips for people who want to be a plantito just like him.

Why are you explaining?

Because you're asking a lot of questions.

You should be asking the landlord.

Before he moved in Samuel screened him.

-Dad? -Yeah?

Your friends with him, right?

Yes.

Can you ask him for me?

Before Mico Plantito even moved in, Sammy already told me about him.

He told me that a woman was supposed to be the original tenant.

I was wondering why it turned out to be a guy.

What if he is a transman?

I've heard that transmen are good-looking these days.

You're funny. He seems too big to be a transman.

Why are you eating the order?

It got cancelled.

I already made them when the order got cancelled.

You should eat it before it spoils.

Or we can give them out to our neighbors.

-Dad! -What?

What are you doing?

Leave this to me.

-I was eating those. -Just chill right there.

(knocks)

(door opens)

Yes?

Um,

hi.

Hello!

I'm Charlie.

Yes.

I live in the other house. The one you see on the veranda.

Yeah.

Rice cakes from me and my dad. Our welcome-to-the-neighborhood gift for you.

Aw, that's so sweet of you. Thank you!

-Thanks so much for this. -Welcome. (heart beating)

Oh, by the way, Mico!

Charlie. (beating intensifies)

Nice to meet you!

-I'll get going. -All right.

-Bye! -See you!

Idol, your vlogs make me happy. They bring me so much good vibes.

To be honest, your vlogs don't make sense. They are so boring. You should stop vlogging because your just wasting data.

You’re so ancient that’s why you don’t have data.

You said that?

Yes, what's so wrong with a little bit clap back?

Are you nuts? You're still a budding vlogger.

You're not yet well-knowned and established in this industry.

You should keep a well-mannered demeanor.

Remember that charming Charlie is what you want to portray and your answer wasn't charming.

Did the girl reply back?

Not yet. I mean, she won't be able to because I blocked her.

I think she's right. You should probably change careers.

You don't know how to receive constructive criticism.

Is it your first time receiving such comments?

Not really.

Actually, she's the fifth basher that I've blocked.

I don't think that's called bashing. More of a wake up call.

-Wake up call? -And you shouldn't have blocked them.

That's still considered as engagement.

If you were going to reply to bashing, you sould have done it politely.

Do you want me to thnak them instead?

That's not what I'm saying. You can respond to them but make it lighter or funnier.

You can even use an avatar or a gif to reply.

Just align your response to your charming Charlie brand.

Remember that your goal is to monetize you channel.

Refrain from offending your subscribers.

You should make higher quality vlogs.

Reminds me. What's your update regarding Mico Plantito?

I haven't asked him. I'm shy, still easing into it.

That's one more thing! There are no shy vloggers! You should be more daring.

(knocking)

Wait, sis, someone's knocking. Dad's still taking a bath.

-Later, Biancs! -Okay.

(both) Bye!

(knocking)

(knocking)

Dad! Someone's at the door.

Wait a moment.

Yes?

(heart beating)

Hi!

Hi, neighbor! What is it?

Charlie, right?

(beating intensifies) Yes, Charlie.

Yeah, by the way the rice cakes you gave me last night were so good.

It tastes like rice cakes from Cebu and I'd like to buy one.

Where can I buy one?

-You found them good? -Yeah, so good.

It was made by--

--I made them. -Oh.

My dad by the way.

You are our new neighbor staying at Samuel's.

Mico, am I right?

Yes, Mico, that's me and you are?

-Janong. -Sir Janong.

I make the most delicious rice cakes in this area.

The rice cakes were legit, Sir Janong. They’re so good.

I'm here to buy one.

How can I order?

You can order through our Facebook page.

-Just search, "Janong's Rice Cakes and Many More. -You can chat me.

Our pricelist is also posted there.

If you want to order just message us.

My son is the moderator of the page.

All right.

We can deliver it for you or you can pick it up here.

Okay, that should be all right, Sir Janong.

Welcome to the neighborhood and thank you for liking our rice cakes.

Mico the Plantito who is fond of rice cakes.

(laughs)

All right, Sir Janong! I'll see you around. Thank you so much.

-See you around, Charlie! -See you around.

See you, Sir!

Dad, what was that?

Plantito who is fond of rice cakes?

Do you work as a tagline maker?

There's nothing wrong with what I said.

My dad with his corny punchlines.

Do you want that?

Corny? I’m not trying to be funny.

Whatever you say, dad!

Why are you affected?

My son who is dumbfounded infront of his crush.

(laughs)

♪Whenever I'm with you I feel so happy♪

Here is the first order of the Plantito who is fond of rice cakes.

Dad, the guy has a name, Mico.

You’re right.

He’s Mico the Plantito who is fond of rice cakes.

You know what, Dad?

I'm still curious of who he is.

What part are you curious about?

Like, where is he from?

New Caption What’s his family like?

Is he rich or just looks like one?

Is he a working student or already part of the work force?

-If-- -If he already has a girlfriend?

Get straight to the point, my son. Stop circling around.

That's just one of the mysteries about him.

So what if he's already taken? Would you still like him?

Look at you jumping into conclusions. Who said that I like that guy?

That kind of guy who's really good-looking,

who seems nice and clean.

No wonder you'll end up liking that guy.

It's too obvious with the way you look at him and how you act.

Anybody would notice.

Besides, I know you too well, Charlie.

Even when you were a kid, you’re my only child.

Everytime your classmate from highschool comes over,

you have a crush on him, right?

This is exactly the way you acted.

That’s why

I know when you’re different because your voice changes.

You somehow become calm, you turn silent and end up dumbfounded.

And him?

Do you think he likes you?

That's not what I meant.

I'm wondering what he's immpression of me is.

Do you really want to know?

Then deliver these rice cakes to him then ask him about that.

Okay, then let's finish this up.

-Let me help you. -Good. Hurry up because he's been waiting for these.

(knocks)

(knocks)

(continues knocking)

Uh, yes? -Hey, Mico.

-Oh. -Here’s your order of rice cakes.

Oh, thank you!

Uhm, by the way, I’ve already sent over my payment.

Yes! We received it already.

Thank you so much, um, I'll eat this now.

-See you later! -Wait, Mico!

-Can I ask you a favor? -What is it?

Can you...

Can you leave a review on our page and also give us a rating?

-That can help us on our sales. -Sure!

Uhm, sure I’ll do that later. Will that be okay?

Yeah, sure.

-That's it. enjoy! -Thank you!

Thank you so much for this. See you! Bye!

Bye, Mico!

We can't fund that kind of business, bro but I tell you let's start small.

Let's focus on the three current businesses right now.

Bro, let’s focus on serving people and then that's it.

We may have earned more. Alright?

Okay, I'll call you back when you get here.

Bye.

Were you listening in on my call?

Are you deaf?

Hey! I clean my ears!

Hey!

I heard that!
