Starting Over Again Page #3

Synopsis: Ten years ago, Ginny (Toni Gonzaga), an Architecture student, and Marco (Piolo Pascual), a History professor, began a one-of-a-kind and unpredictable love story. In the five years that they were together, they brought out the best in each other, which included Marco's unrealized dream of becoming a chef. Together, they worked towards their dream of opening up a restaurant, but when Ginny realized her own pursuits were different from his, she rejected his wedding proposal and left the country for a Masters degree in Architecture. At present, Ginny co-owns a one-stop Architecture and Interior Design firm specializing in Restoration. She receives an email from Marco, which was written and sent after their break-up, meant to be read four years later. It makes her feel even more regretful of leaving the love of her life. When their firm receives an offer to restore an old house into a restaurant, she is ecstatic to learn that Marco will be co-owning the restaurant. She takes this as a sign

Because you will teach

the world to pray...

I give you frankincense...

Because you will save the world

from suffering, I give you myrrh...

Each of the three wise men

gave Jesus a precious gift.

And they went home even wiser men...

Because they know

that precious things...

What are you doing there?

Promise you'll think of me?

Promise.

Every second?

Every minute.

Of every day'?

Promise.

Hey, Sir.

Is everything okay, sir?

A cat! Go away!

There's a cat. A noisy cat.

A flirty cat.

Me, I just want to be a chef!

Why don't you

study culinary arts? Try it!

Come on. You can be an Iron Chef.

You think?

Yes!

You're good!

And you'll make a lot of people happy.

That's precisely what my Grandpa said.

Taste it.

It's delicious.

What do you remember?

What?

What thoughts come to mind

with what you just tasted?

Uhm, happy thoughts!

Just like...

a celebration, a feast! Like that.

Isn't it amazing?

I've always loved how food

can preserve memory.

A feeling.

Even food has history?

How about me?

What taste will make you remember me?

Oh, well.

I have to taste you first.

Really?

Of course.

So I'd remember.

Salty... appetizing.

Sour... The taste of romance.

Sweet... The taste of love.

Delicious. The taste of forever.

Ouch!

Sorry. Sorry.

What's that noise?

I love you, Ginny!

We're legal now! We're legal now!

Hold your knives properly.

Concentrate on the accuracy

and consistency and not speed.

Learn how to cut

your ingredients in uniform sizes.

Slice the cucumbers.

Chop the garlic.

Uniformity is the key

to cook the ingredients fairly.

Right?

Instead of your Grandma selling

this house, turn it into a restaurant.

This will be our future, babe.

I can see it.

The two of us.

My wife is really talented!

Why?

Don't you want to be Mrs. Villanueva?

Why?

Why Ginny?

Because...

You're stupid!!!

You're so stupid!!!

You're already the girlfriend

and you let go of him!

You did nothing for four years!

You didn't write him!

You didn't call him!

You're full of pride! Pride! Pride!

You courted him for so long!

You're too proud of yourself...

You think you're so beautiful?

Look at your jaw!

Maybe you were just afraid?

That's not an excuse!

It's still the same!

Maybe you were afraid to get rejected?

You're too slow!

Somebody got to him first!

There's a new woman!

A new one! A new one!

I'm so tired of crying...

Beb is right.

I have to move on.

This email isn't true.

I have to delete you.

I have to delete you from my life.

Come on...

No!!!

I'll delete it...

Don't delete it!!!

Come on!

Ginny... Gin"!!!

Come on!!!

Hi love!

Hi love! What are you doing?

I'm just checking my investments.

Looks like I have enough

for the business.

That's good.

So, did Ginny accept H?

Yes, she did.

Really ?

I was hoping she wouldn't.

Pats...

Love...

If you're not comfortable, just tell me.

I'll take back the project.

Why? Do I have anything to worry about?

Nothing.

Are you jealous?

A bit. Well, she is your ex.

But that's it, fight?

She's just your ex.

Of course, love.

I wish you were here.

I wish your contract there is done.

Love, two more months, okay?

I love you.

I love you.

I miss you.

Why? Why are you

staring at me like that?

I miss you.

I miss kissing you.

I miss hugging you.

Love, I have 10 go.

My break time is over.

I miss making love to you.

You know, Mr. Villanueva...

If you don? stop this...

Later...

Well! surely have a sex video.

- Game!

- Joke!

So our homecoming is this October.

Ginny, H! stay at your place, okay?

Let's focus on me, first. Okay?

Babe, hurry up! We're running late!

Okay, read!

One day...

I will be back in your life and I will do

whatever it takes to win you back.

I will never lose that hope that

we will have our second chance.

Beb...

Baba...

How old am I now?

30, check!

Did he come back? Check!

Beb, I just need to know.

What?

Why he came back.

Ginny, what you don't know

won't hurt you.

That's just pride, Beb.

I don't want to end up

like my parents...

who missed their chance

because of their pride.

Hurry up! There's heavy traffic

in the expressway!

I'm coming'.

What a huge house! Three storeys...

Good morning.

Let's go.

Oh, you're here.

- I hope you didn't get lost coming here.

- Hi!

Oh!

Sorry!

Are you okay?

Good morning.

How are you?

I'm okay.

Follow me?

- Here.

- Okay...

You have a big house, chef.

This is owned by the family.

Here.

Please.

Come. Let's taste this.

Okay...

Beb...

Thank you...

There.

How does it taste?

Tastes like what?

Weird...

Tastes like sour pork stew but,

why is there no soup?

That's exactly my point!

It's a modernized version

of the classic sour pork stew.

What?

Your family cooks sour pork stew so well!

Why did you change it?

Because the concept of this restaurant

is Filipino with a twist.

So I want the restaurant's design

to match the concept of our food.

Wait, what you're saying is

you want to renovate the house?

But Ginny's specialization

is restoration.

Right, Ginny?

Really?

So we're not talking about

any project here, right?

Oh! Oh! Oh! No!

Wait, wait, wait.

I'm an architect. I can also do that.

I just didn't expect that

the changes will be this drastic.

Anyway, out of curiosity,

what did your Grandma say?

Is this okay with her?

She's no longer here

to tell me if I'm right or wrong.

She passed away?

She died a year after you left.

Babe! Hey!

Guess what?

The team who'll be

doing our restaurant is here!

Babe, I want you to meet...

Beb...

Baba...

- and Ginny.

- Hi.

Guys, this is my girlfriend Patty.

Hi guys!

Sony, Fm just not feeling well.

Hi, Ginny.

It's nice to finally meet you.

Thank you...

We'll go ahead.

What's wrong?

She looks like Mama Mary.

What? Mama Mary?

She has a deep-seated issue

with Mama Mary.

Why does she look like Mama Mary?

Why? Lord?

Is there a problem?

I'm just looking for my contact lens.

She's looking for Mama Mary.

What Mama Mary are you talking about?

My contact lens is missing!

- It fell somewhere here.

- Yes! Contact lens! Where could it be?

You left the blueprint.

Oh! Thank you.

Okay.

Okay. Thank you.

Let's go.

We'll just buy a new lens.

You're going to work with your ex!

And with your ex's present girlfriend!

It's complicated!

It's a recipe for disaster!

Beb, everything is clear to me now,

as clear as Mama Mary's apparition...

that it's over between me

and Marco Villanueva.

So it's settled.

But, we're professional here.

I can be professional.

But...

Baba said our company

needs this project, right?

Oh yes, but...

No worries, my friend.

From now on...

PSP.

PSP?

Past iS Past.

He's about to go down, Ma'am.

Really?

Herman!

Is this beam a new addition?

Isn't it there in the plan?

No. Can you check if this can

cover the whole area until outside?

Okay, later.

No. Now. Do it now. Check it now.

What about this?

I'll take care of that.

Give that to me.

- Now?

- Yes, now. Come on... Come on...
