in the afternoon.

Are you sure?

Yes.

By tomorrow, her fever

should already subside.

If not, we have to take her to the E.R.

Will you both be okay here tonight?

Sorry, I can't stay.

That's okay. We don't need you anyway.

Thank you. This is embarrassing.

You have an infection.

Don't worry. We're med students.

That's why we're used to

taking care of sick people.

You're a doctor'?

Alicia...

You're pregnant.

Please help me.

I can't do this.

I'm scared! I need your help!

I have money! I can pay you!

Please, miss. Help me!

Please help me. You have to help me.

My baby. Baby...

MY baby... Where's my baby?

Hello?

Ma! You startled me!

It's a miracle!

Good thing you're here!

It's almost one year

since you last visited.

Ma, I need money.

For my tuition fee.

I also haven't paid for

two months for the boarding house.

You know you can stay here, Mylene.

The house is big.

But you don't want to.

I don't have anyone with me here.

You don't even care about my feelings.

Ma.

You and your dad are the same.

You choose to stay away from me.

Everything...

He blames it to me.

Dad didn't stay away.

He died.

You're so beautiful, my child!

I know you'll grow up to be beautiful

when you were a child!

That's why, you're the one I chose.

I did everything to keep you safe.

I did everything even if it hurts.

Although, I'm having doubts

with my decisions.

I did all of that for your wellbeing.

There you go!

You're not alone anymore!

We're not alone anymore!

You know what?

I always think of your sister.

I hope she'll come to me.

I even write her letters.

And I also talk to her.

I told her...

Don't be mad at me, my child. "

I'm just waiting for her to answer back.

- Ma.

- My child!

My child, don't go just yet!

Stay with me first.

Ma...

You know why I don't want to stay here?

Why I can't concentrate

with my studies here?

Ma, I need money!

- I have to graduate!

- I just miss you!

My child!

What's the matter with you?!

What are you doing?!

Pao, why are you here?

I've been following you.

Can we talk?

It's been six months and I think

it's time for us to move on.

It's been six months and I think

it's time for us to move on.

I think we should just be friends.

My, forgive me.

How many times should I ask

for your forgiveness?

It's not you.

I'm not ready to be in a relationship yet.

Because?

I don't feel complete.

I don't feel like I'm enough.

I don't think I can give myself to anyone

if I'm still not satisfied with myself.

This is my fault.

I only did that to hurt you.

I only did that because

you don't want me into your life.

Because you don't want anything

to happen between us.

So I did it with someone else but

it doesn't mean a thing. I swear!

I don't love her.

My, you're the only one I love.

You're enough.

My, you lack nothing.

Pao.

Let's stop this.

I don't want to talk about it.

I'm going home.

My! What's happening to you?!

Is it because your mom's

comparing you to your sister?!

What?

I heard you earlier.

SOl'I'Y-

My, I didn't even know you have a sister.

You don't know anything about me!

My, sorry.

I'm just concerned.

You're concerned?

Pao, will you please stop bothering me?!

And even though, you always hang out

with my best friend,

you won't get nothing!

Stop bothering me!

My!

Mylene!

If your child is crying, make it stop!

Mr. Nanding?

Who is il?

Who are you talking about?

Mr. Nanding, you look sick.

You should rest.

This is the first time

he's gotten mad like this!

Someone among you did something terrible!

And he won't ever forgive!

You shouldn't have done that!

You shouldn't have done that!

You shouldn't have done that.

You shouldn't have done that!

There's nothing else we could do.

There you go. There.

Jyiay, what is it?!

Jayiay!

What is it?!

What's the matter?!

Mr. Nanding!

Mr. Nanding!

Vangie!

Mr. Nanding...

Vangie!

Mr. Nanding's son is coming over.

Dr. Ramirez called him.

Mr. Nanding has a son?

How did you know?

What I know is all

his relatives are in the U.S.

He didn't say anything about it.

Well...

We cannot inform other people

all our personal stuff.

That's why it's even called personal.

My son wasjust like that

when we was that age.

He has an imaginary friend.

You have a son?

How old is he?

Like I said, it's personal.

Mr. Nanding's son might arrive tonight.

I told you! She's always

not in the mood to talk with anybody.

Little boy?

Joanna?

This is the first time

I tried to look at these.

Probably, that's Mr. Nanding's only child.

And that's his wife.

What about it?

It's because

Nothing.

- Nothing.

- Hello.

I'm sorry.

Angelo.

Gelo's for short.

Our dog gave birth.

So I thought if I give him one,

it would probably cheer him up.

I haven't seen him in thirty years.

You know. Break the ice.

I don't know what to say to him.

So how long have you been here in Manila?

About two years.

My wife has a business here.

So I came back from the States.

We're based in Batangas with my kids.

Your dad knows about it?

He knows. I called him twice.

A number of times.

Just to pay my respects.

You know.

Broken homes.

I'm sure Mr. Nanding loves you, Angelo.

When my mom and I left for the States,

we no longer had a contact with him.

My stepdad and I are very close.

So I treated him like a real father.

So Dr. Ramirez called me up.

He said, these are the things I should do.

Obligations.

Hope people will understand.

Your dad's awake now.

Mr. Nanding?

You have a visitor.

Pa...

Do you still remember me?

It's Gelo, your son.

The plants should be taken care!

My son hasn't eaten yet!

Pa, look.

I brought you a puppy.

He will cheer you up.

He's fine now.

But no one's taking care of him here.

I'll just take him to the hospital.

Mom's going to get mad.

She doesn't want me to help him.

You're right.

It would belong to me.

And it's worth a lot, huh.

This is a prime real estate.

I'll talk to my friend who's an agent.

Maybe he could sell this in a large amount.

That's for sure!

He will sell this.

Of course. This will be sold right away.

This one has a potential.

Are you ready?

Just be careful.

Wait for me.

- Take it easy.

- Mr. Nanding, let's go.

Can you do it?

Slowly.

There you go.

Get in.

We'll go now.

Okay. Just a minute.

Sorry. I didn't know

the dog has taken parvo.

I should've taken him to the vet

before taking him here. I'm sorry for that.

Anyway, I'll have dad confined first.

Maybe that'll be the best for him.

I don't want him to be a

burden to all of you.

You guys have to study, right?

Are you sure?

Yes. There are specialists to cases

same as what dad has.

I'll be dropping by once in a while.

For repaint and repair.

Look.

The house looks beautiful in these photos.

What year did you leave the country?

My parents separated 1981.

What about your brothen'?

My brother'?

How did he die?

Joanna.

I'm not sure I understand

what you're talking about.
