One More Try Page #2

---

you are actually considering this!

What do you want me to say?

Can I say no to them?

The child could die if we refuse to help!

And the child could die

even if you helped!

I don't know what to do.

How can you even say no

to a mother with a dying child?

And to my husband who has

long wanted a child I can't give?

And this is your compromise?

You trust that woman?

She's not just any woman.

It's the same woman who

almost ruined your life back then.

Can't you see, Jacq?

The child you are trying to save...

may be the same child

who will destroy your family!

Grace, I think you're still

in love with him.

Obstetricians are experts

on the uterus, not on the heart.

What does Tristan mean in your life?

I love him.

When this is all over,

I will marry him.

But why did you not

run after Edward back then?

He was not yet married then!

You could have had him!

For what?

I got through it, didn't I?

If it weren't for my son,

I wouldn't have contacted them.

Exactly my point]

That's what I mean by the natural way.

It's easy to pretend one's untainted.

But this is a matter of life and death!

It's no longer matters

what's immoral and unethical.

What matters is the life of my godchild!

Yes. I am ready.

Just make sure you don't have

unfinished business with Edward.

Because when you have sex,

it's not just the sperms and eggs meeting,

but also your heart, mind, body, and soul

and everything in-between.

Can you handle it?

I can!

Are you sure you can?

Yes, I can.

I will do everything for my son.

Th en it's done!

Grace, you can do it!

You we

Crazy'

Hon?

You'll see your son soon.

I can't believe this is happening.

He's very sick.

I'm afraid that...

We'll help him in everything.

We'll not refuse him that.

And please remember

you're not alone in this.

You have me.

Finally, we're here!

- Get off! I'll just get your bag.

- I'll be with you in awhile.

Son, your towel!

Finish this so you can

take your medicines.

Grace, Jacq's here.

Jacq.

How did you like the place?

It's huge, and everything is nice.

But isn't this too much?

No. Edward just wants

to make it up to his son.

Actually, he's on his way here.

Jacq, this is Batch ok.

Hi.

I'm your Aunt Jacq.

- Be careful!

- Not too fast!

Grace, I'll be over there.

See you at home.

Botch ok, come h ere,

I'll tell you something.

How are you feeling?

Do you feel okay?

Yes.

Do you remember what

you always ask me about?

Yes.

About your father?

He's here.

- Do you want to meet him?

- Yes.

He's your Papa Edward.

Go to him, Botchok.

Papa...

Botch ok?

- Wait a second, son.

- Mom, hurry!

Be careful!

It's beautiful here Papa!

Don't go far. I'm just right here.

Hello?

Don '1 tell me you pushed through with it?

Marga, relax!

The boy just wants to swim.

And besides, this is a good opportunity

for Edward to bond with his son.

That's exactly the problem!

You give them what they want!

The next thing you know,

you've already given away your husband

without you even knowing it!

You know what

you're getting melodramatic.

We're just having fun. Okay?

We both brought adobo.

So it seem s.

Thank you. Botch ok is very happy.

I'm sorry you had to skip work today.

I'm trying my best

to be a supportive wife.

Edward is lucky to have you.

Papa, the score is 1-0.

- Catch up!

- I will.

What is my favorite color?

Red.

Blue.

Papa is correct!

Okay!

Isn't red your favorite color?

Blue is my new favorite.

You changed it?

Who's my favorite superhero?

Superhero?

It's Thor, right?

You know who.

Thor!

Uncle Tristan is correct!

Yes! Really you!

- Are we going back here?

- Botchok?

- Yes, we are. Wear your jacket.

- Wear your jacket.

Have you been together a long time?

Yes.

Why haven't you gotten married yet?

When the child gets well, we will.

Are you really that kind?

I love Grace, and I love Botch ok.

And you, why are you agreeing to this?

Agreement is different from tolerance.

And tolerance is different

from suffering in silence.

I can suffer in silence

for the one I love.

That's easy to say.

But for how long?

I don't know.

Because if I knew,

then it can't be love.

- How are you feeling?

- Jacq, he's dizzy!

Jacq, he's dizzy!

Botch ok.

- Tristan...

- Does he have fever?

- Where's his medicine?

- It's here.

- When are we going home?

- Yes, Botch ok.

Don't you like it here?

I miss Grandma and my friends.

Com e.

You know why we're here, don't you?

I do. I'm sick.

When I'm well, we'll go home.

We'll go home! We will!

Of course, we will.

We have to pray harder.

Yes.

Let's pray that you will get well.

Jesus, make me well so I can go home

to see my Grandmother and my friends.

I'm sorry but

the in-vitro failed again.

We can keep on trying but like I said,

there are no guarantees.

We'll try it again.

Let's do it again.

Huh?

Grace?

What?

Your call!

If you're willing to take the risk.

My opinion is,

the second option is not all that bad.

You know it's just sex.

It'll take 5-10 minutes,

after you get off, it's done!

I don't get your obsession with my husband

having sex with your friend!

I don't know about you

but I am offended...

by the idea and by you!

Jacq.

Jacq.

Why do I feel we are

at their beck-and-call?

We do what they want!

Tissue-typing, in-vitro, sure!

I agree and support you!

But why do I feel I am the villain here?!

No one's saying that.

She was just giving us our options.

- What options?

- We have the final say.

- Options should mean many choices!

- What is it, then?

- We are decent, educated...

- Yes, I know!

And we have money.

We can bring the boy to the US!

But do we have the time?

Can we do that right now?

No, we can't!

- Time! Huh?

- Why do you make it sound

like we don't have a choice?

I hate that feeling!

Because you're overreacting!

Why do I feel that

why you don't oppose this...

is because you actually want to do it?

What did you say?

Stop it.

Shut up!

We may never run out of money.

But my patience will!

What time is it?

Stop.

Stop it!

I forgot.

I shouldn't be the one

to get you pregnant.

What is about Your pregnancy is delicate

that you don '1 understand.

You should be resting.

You've been working all your life.

Now is the chance,

especially at this time.

I will finish what I started.

Failure is not an option.

You know my baby is important

and I'm doing this for him.

I don't want him to go through

what I experienced.

I don '1 want a difficult life.

I don '1 want him to beg and just

swallow what's handed him.

I just want this baby

to have a better life.

What kind of mother am I

to give up easily?

I don't know anymore.

I don't know who can help me.

I will not forgive myself

should anything bad happen to my son.

Have faith. He will not abandon us.

Let us just do what is right.

I'm close to losing sight

of what's right.

What do {need to do?

I almost want to sell myself

to save my son.
