So parang dun ko palang i-cecenter siguro sarili ko. Once after the wedding is done and once I move in, I guess yun yung focus ko,&quot; Michelle said.&quot;How I will create this whole thing with us and having our own house together and the routines we&#x27;ll have our own careers and I guess just figuring that out kasi nga next chapter for me,&quot; she explained.Vito said he&#x27;s ready to help Michelle during the transition to the next chapter in their life.&quot;I understand naman where she&#x27;s coming from. Kasi with me who&#x27;s been living alone for 5 years compared to her she&#x27;s always lived with her family, I guess it&#x27;s hard for her too, the moving out stage. Saying bye to living with her parents, all her dogs in her house,&quot; he said.&quot;Compared to me, I&#x27;m excited I have na may kasama na ako sa bahay. So it&#x27;s very different which I understand I&#x27;m here to support her,&quot; Vito added.
