Break na ang mag-bhie, so here’s a look back on the sweet, sweet love that they once shared.
In the intricate journey of young couples, there comes a time when self-discovery ushers them to a crossroads of cherished memories and the painful decision of parting ways. Even though we, viewers, were aware of the impending storm in Tim (Zaijian Jaranilla) and Roxy (Xyriel Manabat)’s relationship, still there is no easy way to move on from their breakup, which happened last week in Senior High. But to somewhat console our grieving TimRox hearts, here’s a Kapamilya Toplist video that compiles their cutest ‘kilig’ moments from the trending series.
The early days of their love were full of adventures, laughter, and smiles. They’ve grown so solid that even their families have had this genuine connection, too. Roxy and her sister, Ria (Rans Rifol), were often present during special occasions in the Castro abode such as when they celebrated Tim’s mother’s birthday. In this scene, Tim’s mom, Edith (Angeli Bayani), wished to petition him sooner, prompting Roxy to make ‘pabebe’ comments about her boyfriend leaving. So, Tim promised that he’d make a way for them to be together no matter what.
In another dinner scene in the Castro residence, Roxy mentioned their efforts to help raise funds for Sky (Andrea Brillantes)’s tuition fee. She got ‘kilig’ when Edith promised their family's support and even called her “mamanugangin” or future daughter-in-law. These scenes are heart-wrenching reminders of how big they dreamed for their future together.
Roxy’s love language of gift-giving cannot be underestimated. Never did she forget to buy Tim’s favorites when hanging out in their school cafeteria, or whenever she had extra money. In a previous scene, she bought him a gift as soon as Archie (Elijah Canlas) paid for the items from her live-selling. She wanted them to celebrate together. This was when they finally proved their hunches that Archie and Dark Gray, Roxy’s mystery miner in her live-selling, are the same person.
Tim, in turn, sweeps Roxy off her feet with his subtle romantic ways. He had many times demonstrated the lengths he was willing to go to protect his girlfriend. In a scene, he was about to confront Archie for disrespecting Roxy when the latter convinced him to just let it go, and instead soaked up the ‘kilig’ she felt from her boyfriend’s heroic gesture, especially when he uttered, “Labyu.”
And who could ever forget Tim’s spontaneous acts of affection that made Roxy’s heart flutter? One time, out of the blue, he commented, “You are MINE,” during Roxy’s live-selling. Of course, he’s proved that chivalry is not lost through simple acts like walking her home.
Nothing fuels ‘kilig’ like having a partner who genuinely supports your dreams and celebrates your achievements. We witnessed how Roxy encouraged Tim’s personal growth by supporting his career as a varsity player, and she even helped him pack his things for his inter-school games. When the team arrived at Northford High after the games, Roxy was the first person to welcome Tim. She ran to him for an embrace, and with sparkling eyes filled with pride and a radiant smile that mirrored her excitement, cheered for her boyfriend when she found out that he was hailed as the season’s MVP.
Laughter is a universal love language; hence, shared laughter forms the foundation of a relationship. Tim and Roxy were each other’s ‘marites’ buddies, as they loved to bond over discussing the latest gossip surrounding Northford High and sharing hilarious opinions about their bully classmates. They also never forget to update each other on their investigations of Luna’s tragic death.
They were truly partners in crime, and also partners in facing the consequences of their crime. Remember when they deflated Archie’s car tires and ended up washing his car consistently for a week as punishment? But they didn’t shy away from exchanging “goodbyes” and “I love yous” in front of Archie, so much so the latter found their sweetness gross. Then, Roxy clapped back, saying that Archie must only be feeling envious.
The prelude to their breakup proved to be a bittersweet moment, as Roxy felt very special when Tim brought her to a nice place for their dinner date, oblivious to his impending heartbreaking confession.
Will this truly be the end of TimRox’s love story?
