- Oh, how sweet!

- Happy Birthday!

Lvan, what is it that you like

about my best friend?

I'm sorry.

Let me rephrase the question.

What does Mabel have that I don't?

A lot!

She is simple...

down to earth...

and caring.

She's a caregiver to her mom.

And she really takes good care of me.

You really are looking for a caregiver.

Hey, watch it!

The food is here! Let's eat!

Ana, we'll go ahead. I prepared

a dinner for Mabel at my house.

We're not invited?

I want to be alone with Mabel,

along with my daughter.

Angel?

Give Mabel a kiss. Okay?

Why? Is she my aunt?

Is she mommy's sister?

No, but she has something for you.

Look, she bought you a doll.

Here, Angel.

I already have two dozen dolls.

Angel, the more the merrier. Right?

It's pretty, and it talks.

I don't like it.

Angel! Angel!

I'll just give that to Angel, Ma'am.

Excuse me.

- Hello? Mom?

- Mabel?

- Have you taken your medicine?

- Yes.

I might go home early.

All right. Take care.

Thank you.

Tita, Dad told me to apologize to you

and to say, "Thank you."

Dinner is ready.

Have some more.

- Manang, the food is so delicious.

- Give her more food.

Thank you, Ma'am.

You're the only one

who appreciates my cooking...

unlike Ma'am Mariella,

who's always on a diet.

That's right.

Ma'am Mariella is so thin.

I'm sure Angel is as pretty as her mom.

That's true Ma'am Mabel.

They look so much alike!

Can we not talk about someone

who's not here?

Why not, Daddy?

Don't you love mommy anymore?

Excuse me.

That helper has such a big mouth!

She shouldn't have said those things!

Lvan, even if your wife left you,

she's still Angel's mother.

You can't keep the child

from missing her mom.

No! She doesn't deserve her love!

But you can't teach the child

to stop loving her mother.

Yes, but I know

she'll learn to love you.

I know that she will!

All I want is a complete family!

That's it!

And you're the one

who will complete my life.

Only you.

This is for you.

I know we still

can't get married because...

I'm still fixing my annulment

with Mariella.

Then why are you giving me

an engagement ring?

I just want to be sure...

because I don't want to lose you.

Daddy! Mommy will come back!

You don't have to replace her!

Angel?

Angel, what are you doing?

Daddy, I don't like her!

I don't like her!

- I don't like her!

- Quiet!

I don't like her!

Daddy, I don't like her!

Make sure you go straight home.

Yes, I'm on my way home...

and I'll tell my mom about it.

All right.

I love you.

I love you, too. Take care.

Thank you.

Base, is Rosario flooded already?

Yes, it is.

Base? Base? Base?

Sir, why did we pass through here?

This is a longer route.

Better than to submerge...

Help me!

- Did you see that, Ma'am?

- See what?

The woman

who suddenly crossed the street!

Where?

My pals are right! There is a ghost

that appears in this place!

Sir, let's go. I think you're drunk.

I'm not drunk, Ma'am!

I don't even believe in ghosts!

Are you really serious with that guy?

Yes, Mom. He loves me.

And do you love him, too?

Of course.

What's that?

Mom, lvan gave it to me last night.

It's your sister's birthday

in two weeks.

What did your mom say

now that you're unofficially engaged?

Nothing, as if she doesn't care.

Nothing?

Ana, I know that she still blames me

for what happened to Marie.

She's just forcing herself

to show love for me.

Forcing? Your mom really loves you!

I know she still has grudges

against me.

It's not your fault!

Is it really not?

No!

After everything that happened...

I've accepted that

she loves Marie more than me.

But you know what hurts the most?

That I know that she wishes...

that Marie is alive...

and I'm the one who should have died!

That's not true!

Then why is it that until now...

she doesn't even remember

that it's my birthday.

I'm still at the office.

Just wait for me.

- Ivan!

- Ivan, let's just meet there.

I don't want to bother you.

Are you sure?

Do you want me to pick you up now?

No, it's okay.

All right.

Good evening, Ma'am.

I'm sorry. It's hard to get a ride.

The traffic is so bad.

- Here's the menu.

- That's okay.

You're soaking wet.

- What happened?

- Let me do it.

- At least I got here, right?

- What are you saying?

I told you I should have picked you up.

I didn't want to bother you.

Why don't you

just close down your shop?

What?

It's not like you're giving up

a successful business, right?

I just thought that it would give you

more time for my daughter.

Ivan...

I'm still supporting a parent.

That's why

I can't just close down my business.

Yes. Yes, I know.

But you will be my wife, okay?

And I will take care of you...

and your family.

Ivan?! Oh, my God! It's you!

How are you?

I missed you! How are you?

Mabel, this is Samantha.

Samantha is a friend of Mariella

and mine.

Well, I don't consider her

my friend anymore!

What kind of a friend will just leave

without saying anything, right?

Wait! How are you, lvan? I missed you!

I'm okay.

So how's New York?

I heard you're doing good in New York.

You know what?

They love Filipino designers there!

- Really?

- Yeah!

You know what...

I'm staying here for just two weeks.

I have a client

who wants her wedding gown...

to be made from pineapple fabric...

and I have to go all the way

to Batangas to look for that.

Nice.

Can you come with me? Please?

Yes!

How about this?

Why don't you design

Mabel's wedding gown?

Yes, but...

Wait! Lvan, are you allowed

to marry again?

Of course! Why not?

Of course, it can be fixed. Right?

That one is going to take

a long, long time.

Place your order.

Oh, I love your ring!

Thank you.

Bye!

Oh, I love your ring!

It's going to take a long, long time!

I left my lipstick.

Just pick anything you want.

Ana, I promise to pay you

as soon as I make a sale.

Go ahead!

Have you picked one?

Is this what you like?

It's nice.

Mabel?

Are you okay?

It looks good on you.

I got it from Ana's shop.

I have to go to my store.

I'll help you.

No, it's okay. I'm fine.

You're my girlfriend's bestfriend.

Let me help you.

- It's okay. Thank you.

- Come on, Mabel. Let me help you.

No, it's okay.

Mabel!

You didn't see anything!

Do you understand?!

- Do you understand?!

- Yes.

- You understand?!

- Yes.

You better be sure!

Sir lvan, Ms. Samantha

is still waiting for you.

Tell her I have meetings all day.

I told her, Sir,

but she insists on waiting.

All right, I'll take care of it.

See, Mabel? I was right about it!

You just need to glam up

to make a sale.

How will you sell expensive antiques

if you don't look expensive?

You know what?

I'm happy.

I'm happy that you're finally happy.

You need a make-over.

I was drunk, okay? I was drunk!

You don't have to feel guilty

about what happened.

Your wife abandoned you.

You know, she called me that night.

Yes. That night,

she said she called you.

Yes. The last night you saw her.

She told me that if you called me
