Suddenly It's Magic Page #3

Synopsis: Joey Hermosa (Erich Gonzales) and Marcus Hanson (Mario Maurer) only have two things in common. One: they live to make fairy-tale romances happen - Joey through her exquisite wedding cakes; Marcus through the numerous romantic comedies he stars in. Two: their own love stories do not have the fairy-tale happy endings - she was just recently dumped at the altar; he just discovered that his on-screen partner and real-life girlfriend had fallen in love with another man. These two broken-hearted people will find love again when they least expect it. Sounds like the perfect recipe for a sweet ever after! Desperate to escape the media frenzy and the intrusive questions of the public about his love life and career, Marcus impulsively decides to go on vacation in the Philippines where he meets Joey who is determined to move forward with her life. Marcus finds himself drawn to Joey's passion for baking, and rediscovers his love for acting. In love once again, he invites her to join him in Thailan

Your mother will kill me.

Your crazy fans will kill me.

Jinggay, you're talking nonsense.

Just tell me what I can do

to make a girl fall in love with me.

Marcu s!

I can never be your woman

so don't fall in love with me!

But I'm not in love with you.

Oh.

What's this?

My housekeeper says

I have to serenade and oou rt you.

Serenade me? Court me?

That's how you do it here, right?

I like you.

- Really? You like me?

- Yeah!

I'm going to make you

fall in love with me too.

Marcus, the point of the serenade is

to let her know how you feel by singing.

Not just playing the instrument.

How will she get it

if there are no words?

Yeah.

Dan! Dan! Help me out.

Com e h ere.

Get ready friends

for a grand production number!

Why are you helping him?

Girl, I'm not helping him.

I'm helping you! Get over yourself.

You're already getting all the attention!

Are you ready?

Hey, beautiful girl!

You know how happy you make me?

Because if you don't,

I have to tell you

in the universal language of rap!

Once upon a time,

here in our town there was a lovely girl

who bought a wedding gown.

She had found her prince charming

Smart. Good-looking.

A guy named Marvin!

The wedding was set, it was all a go

But Marvin said goodbye!

Oh no, no, no!

Oh it was just so bad,

Seeing Josephine all so sad.

I don't want no sad cupcake no more

I don't want no sad cupcake no more

I would be the man

to put the sugar in the cake

Make you love again,

be your chocolate.

Please be my girl,

my happy cupcake girl!

Please be my girl,

my happy cupcake girl!

Please be my girl,

my happy cupcake girl!

Please be my girl,

my happy cupcake girl!

What's up, cupcake?

Have dinner with me?

Go on!

Come on! Say yes!

Th at took a lot of effort.

Rapping ain't easy.

Say yes!

Okay.

The food tonight is very good.

I wonder what's going on there?

There's a famous actor

here in the hotel.

Yes, I heard! Maybe it's Piolo!

Maybe it's John Lloyd and Bea.

And Ate Vi!

You know them?

My housekeeper, Jinggay, she loves them.

Come on, let's look.

I want to spend

the rest of my life with you.

Will you marry me?

Yes!

Joey?

Joey!

Joey!

Joey!

Joey!

Magic? Love?

None of these are real.

How could you be so stupid?

How could you allow yourself

to believe...

in what you always knew

was just a beautiful lie?

It's not a lie.

They may have lied to us,

but the love we felt for them,

the love we gave them, that was true.

That's why it hurts.

And that's why we learn to appreciate

the next one that comes along.

How did you find out?

I walked in on them having sex.

Sorry. I'm sure that hurt.

Yes, it hurt.

But what hurts more

is seeing her every day,

and pretending to like her

in front of the camera, for the fan s.

You're an actor?

Yes, and I'm stuck playing

prince charming to my ex.

Is that the reason why

you want to quit your job?

Yes, she's the big reason

why I'm not happy anymore.

You asked me if I believe

in dreams coming true.

I guess, if it's destined for you,

it will come true.

How will you know

if it's destined for you?

I guess you wouldn't have dreamed it

if it wasn't your destiny.

And being an actor is the only thing

I ever dreamed of becoming.

Then don't quit!

You're going to let some ex-girlfriend

be the reason to quit a job you love?

Tell you what.

I will race you there.

If I win,

I will quit acting and live here.

If you win,

I will fly back to Thailand. Yes?

Sure!

Ready?

On e. Two. Three!

- Good morning!

- Good morning!

Why did you want to meet here?

Unfinished business.

Marcus, no!

Come!

Hi, I'm Marcus. I want to thank you.

Thank me?

Thank you for breaking Joey's heart.

Sorry, you are?

- Marvin...

- Me? I'm her boyfriend.

The pain you had caused Joey

made her more beautiful in my eyes.

And it made me want to love her more.

Love her in a way you never could.

Love her in the way she should be loved.

Congratulations on your upcoming wedding.

You deserve each other.

Let's go, baby.

God bless you, Marcus.

Bye, Marcus.

Okay.

I'll carry your bag.

- Marcu s.

- Yeah ?

Thank you for making

my best friend smile again.

She made me smile, too.

When you get home.

Thank you

for what you did this morning.

Your acting was so good!

You almost convinced me

that you were my boyfriend.

And that you love me.

Are you sure it was all acting?

That's a line

from one of your movies, isn't it?

L gotta go-

Take care of yourself.

Come with me.

Even just for a few days.

When I get there,

I will find a church and I will pray

to God for you come to Thailand.

It's so easy for you to tell

other people to follow their heart...

but you can't take your own advice.

You 're n ever going

to have another boyfriend ever?

Do you want to end up

like the gifts in your house?

Om, dusty, ugly'?

Your problem is you always

let your imagination get ahead of you.

What do you mean ?

You haven't even tried yet

and you already think you will fail.

You're ending something

that hasn't even begun.

Child, you can't let the fear of getting

hurt take control of your heart.

If you do,

there won't be any room for love.

Th ere won't be any room

for happiness either.

You have to choose to love again.

Choose to be happy, Joey!

This cupcake doesn't taste sad anymore.

Marou s!

They seem happy to see me.

Aren't you happy to see me?

Why are you still here?

Your cupcake told me

to follow my heart.

And my heart led me back here to you.

I don't want to just pretend

to be your boyfriend.

What I want is

to be your boyfriend for real.

I want to kiss you right now.

But I won't,

until you tell me

that you will be my girl.

Please be his girl,

his happy cupcake girl!

Uh-huh.

Uh-huh? What is uh-huh?

Yes. Most definitely a yes!

Fine. He's in the Philippines.

On my fifth birthday,

my mom took me here.

That was the first and last time

that we were all together:

me, my mom, and my father.

My mom said that we had to let my dad go

because he was meant for greater things.

Growing up, I felt the reason he walked

away from us was because...

we weren't good enough for him,

that he didn't want us.

Maybe, he just didn't love me.

And you never saw him after that?

But I couldn't call him my dad.

But I could call him mayor,

before congressman.

Now it's govern or.

Th e govern or?

He and my mom had an affair.

I am the secret daughter that

no one is supposed to know about.

I'm sorry.

I couldn't imagine keeping you a secret.

You are too good, too beautiful,

too wonderful to be kept a secret.

Is that another line from your movies?

Of course not!

It took Marvin a year

before I agreed to be his girlfriend.

I've only known you for a week

and yet I've already fallen for you.

I love you.

Even if they're with other people,

we still hope that

John Lloyd and Bea...

will still end up together and stay

like that forever and ever!

You 're sayin g, Th ey n ever

even had a relation ship? Ever?
