Starting Over Again Page #4

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

Look for Mang Jojo. Ask for his help.

Quick! Check the measurement outside.

- Okay.

- What? Okay.

Good morning.

Oh. Hi! Good morning.

Oh... Sorry.

I'm measuring something.

Are you okay?

Yes. Thank you.

Okay.

Genina... Behave. Behave.

Closer, baby.

It just needs one touch.

Then it'll come out of the TV.

- See! Isn't it great?

- Oh, hello? Marco!

Oh, Ali...

We already studied what you sent.

But Marco didn't approve it.

He said it no longer looks

like a Filipino restaurant.

Is he there? Can I talk to him?

Oh, no, no, no. It's our service time.

Chef, it might get too salty again.

Customers were complaining that

the pork blood stew was salty.

What?

Marco's pork blood stew was salty?

Is he sick?

No. No. Uhm...

Peewee is the one who's salty.

Okay, okay.

No, no, no, no. This is not H.

It's still lacking some details.

Look, Ginny.

If this is becoming difficult...

No, no, no, no, no.

No. It's okay.

Uhm, here's what I'll do.

I'll revise the layout.

Then H! show you some pegs.

Dude! She still wants you, man.

Stop pestering Marco.

No. I really saw it.

So what, Marco?

Should Ginny keep her hopes up?

No, she shouldn't!

Wanna bet?

Me? I'll bet on Marco and Ginny.

What?

Okay! Go!

- Cheers!

- To our bet!

Cheers!

Hi, Marco! We're here in your house.

Too bad I didn't catch you.

I wanted to personally

hand you the revised plan.

It's so hard to catch up

with your time lately.

Oh no, Ginny. I left the house early.

I didn't know you're coming.

Fm on my way 10 Ortigas.

I'm running late for a meeting.

I can give it to you there!

No hassle at all.

I wanted to give it to you personally

so I can get your feedback right away.

Okay. See you!

Oh. Ginny!

You can just leave the plan

with the househelp, right?

This is going to be quick, I promise!

Hello, Ginny.

Sorry! Sorry! Traffic is so bad!

Yeah. I couldn't wait for you.

I had to pick up something at

Roxas Boulevard. You know what...

Just leave it at the restaurant.

No! No! No! It's okay.

Roxas Boulevard is just nearby.

I can give it to you there.

I'll see you!

Marco is giving us the runaround!

Don't you think he got you

just so he can get back at you?

Whatever.

You guys take care of Mr. Aguinaldo.

I'll just take a cab.

Ginny!

Taxi!!!

Wait! Hey!

Oh!

Wait! Wait! Wait!

Hey! That's mine! That's--

That's mine!

Wait!

Hey!!!

Wait! I was here first!

Hey, I'm sorry. I'm in a hurry!

Hey, don't ignore me!

Hey! Open this!

Hey! I was here first!

Hey! That's rude!

How crass!

Such an a**hole! You have no respect!

You're shameless!

Okay... There...

Went past me.

Hey! Miss!

- Wait!

- Sir! Sir!

- I was here first!

- Ouch!

This is my cab! Get your own cab!

Whatever! You want a fight?

I told you this is mine!

I'm going to be late for school!

There goes the taxi again...

It's your fault.

Don't touch me!

Oh... hello?

Hello, Ginny? I'm really sorry.

I'm on my way to Alabang.

I have to catch a meeting there.

What? Alabang?

Okay. In 15 minutes. Okay. Bye.

Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop!

Ouch.

Sir! Sir!

What's the fastest way to Alabang?

Don't call me Sir!

Is that what happened?

No! I told him...

Hello, Marco?

Marco? Hello?

Hello?

Hello, Marco?

I'm here. Sorry, sorry...

I'm here in Alabang.

I'm here at the restaurant.

Ali called me. We had to fix

some problems for our catering.

Is that so?

Will that take long?

Do you still have

other errands to attend to?

I don? know yet.

I still have a meeting

at Tagaytay later.

Who are you meeting with at Tagaytay?

Wow, Tagavlav!

Ah, Ginny. I gotta go.

Okay, We-

Marco!

Ma'am Ginny wanted to give this to you.

Give me the laundry.

[Marco's Restaurant. Second proposal.

I wasn't able to catch you.]

[Just let me if this is a go or a no.

Ginny.]

[Marco:
Just saw your revision.

Still not working. Sorry.]

- Is chef there?

- Good morning, Ma'am. He's inside.

Here he is.

At last, I was able to catch you!

Hi.

It's not yet six.

I was calling but

you weren't picking up.

I called your house and

your househelp said you left already.

So I thought,

I'd just go straight here.

I haven't slept revising this.

Show it to Ali first.

Can you check it first?

So we can save time.

Besides, you're the final say, right?

You know what, next time,

you can just email me so you'll save

yourself the hassle of coming here.

It's okay.

We haven't seen each other for so long.

It's time that we

catch up on each other.

You've changed so much.

Well, I hope it's a better Marco.

It's the Marco I've always

wanted you to be.

The Marco you've always wanted me to be?

That's interesting.

Am I still interesting?

To you?

Just asking.

Do I still affect you?

Again, just asking.

No.

Oh, so that's why

you've been avoiding me?

It's too early for you to be here.

Why? You also couldn't sleep?

Look at that.

That isn't your job

but you're doing it.

And you tell me you're not affected?

Look, Ginny.

Why did you get me as your architect?

Because you said you can do the job.

There are other architects out there.

Don't flatter yourself.

I'm a businessman.

I needed someone

who can get the job done.

Why didn't you follow me to Barcelona?

Are you serious?

That's what you asked for, right?

If you really loved me,

you should have followed me.

If you really loved me,

you shouldn't have left me.

And I regret that everyday.

Are you flirting with me?

Do you want me to?

L...

have a girlfriend.

And you intend to propose

to her in six months.

So I'm asking you...

Do you want me to?

No.

You sent me an email

four years ago at LetterLatencom.

I received that on my birthday.

I can't remember.

"I'm sending this email

four years from now.

I hope that's enough for you

to know that I'm the one you love.

I hope you have done

everything you wanted.

I hope you'll be ready to accept the love I

have to offer by the time you get this email.

One day, I'll be back in your life again and

I'll do everything it takes to win you back.

I will never lose hope that eventually...

we will have our second chance.

No matter what happens,

no matter how long...

I will never lose hope."

Is that still right, Marco?

Is that still true?

Is that why you

got me as your architect?

Do you still want us to

have our second chance?

Marco?

Marco...

Sh*t...

What happened?

We're locked in!

Guard!

We're locked in?

We're locked in!

Guard!

So what now?

Guard!!! We're locked in!

I can't die yet. I can't die.

I still want to do a lot of things.

Guard!!!

You need to open this.

Open this! We're locked in!

We're going to die here!

It's so cold...

Guard!

Sir!

Sir? You're locked in?

Yes! Get the key!

Where?

I don't know! Do something!

Get anything! Break this door!

Okay, just stay there!

Ginny?

Hang on.

Hang on.

Marco...

If we die now...

Can you answer my question, please?

Does the email still hold true?

Do we still have a second chance?

Do you also believe that our love story
