He brought pasalubong for my entire family and memorized all 11 names

First time bringing my bf to Sunday lunch at our house in Bulacan (he's from Cebu). He showed up with 3 boxes of dried mangoes, otap, and a bag of chicharon for my lolo. He had all 11 names in his Notes app and studied them on the jeep. He called my tita "Tita Baby" without anyone telling him. My mom is in love. Green right??

chicharon for lolo is concerning medically but romantically perfect
