MSKM - 1128.jpgJackie’s happiness was evident when she and her yaya Heidi got home. She felt like a huge burden was lifted off her shoulders.

She was a bit odd to Heidi and the other house help but they like the new Jackie. Jackie now enjoys taking a bath using a pail and tabo, and spends her free time chatting with the maids. She even does the laundry with them much to Fidel’s surprise. Jackie has started painting again too, and she is starting on a simple farm scene.

MSKM - 1117.jpgJackie becomes confused when Celine started calling her by her real name. Celine held Jackie’s arms, as if feeling if her cousin’s real or not. Celine wanted Jackie to recognize her but her persistence instead frightened her cousin away. Jackie was in tears when she returned to Aling Bebeng. She told her and Guada about the lady who insisted she knew her. She even kept calling her another name. The two women dismissed Celine, saying someone might have just mistaken her for someone else. They hurry up Jackie to buy the gift so they can get home before Eli does. Celine tries to tell JB what he saw but something stopped her from doing so and they drive back to Manila. Jackie buys the jacket for Eli but suddenly feels a bit dizzy. Aling Bebeng tells her to sit down beside one of the stalls to rest a while. The old woman will look for Guada and return for her there. But a fire breaks in the market which makes Jackie panic. She gets knocked down unconscious. She wakes up amidst the smoke. And she now remembers everything. Jackie picks up her jacket and walks away. Bebeng and Guada fight their way back into the market but some men stop them. Jackie sat in a bus silently, tears streaming down her face. She tells the conductor that she’s going home.

I. JACKIE DIES

10-06-06
The story begins. Fate brings Eli and Jackie together.

MSKM - 1006-01.jpgThe story begins with a man carrying a child, running for his life. Shot and left for dead beside a pier, the baby is saved, floating on the water, in a vat.

At a busy public market, Eli gets into trouble, getting into a fish fight with other coolies like him. Pong, his older brother gets into it too and they are reprimanded by their father, Dadoods. After getting a mouthful from his father, Eli enjoys a bath by the seaside.

Another person is also enjoying herself in the tub, but with the assistance of other people. Jackie is being given a grand spa treatment. She gets dressed in an elegant gown and gets decked with the most precious jewels. Eli looks like a prince himself, walking out of their shabby house in a tuxedo. Yes, they are indeed meeting each other, but not in the way you think. Jackie is the special guest of her boyfriend JB at the inauguration of their new ship while Eli is working there as a waiter. Jackie makes a grand entrance and everyone is mesmerized with her beauty, including JB.

MSKM - 1006-07.jpgEli’s daydreaming halts when Celine calls his attention. She asks him to always serve drinks to a certain table. JB’s talk with Jackie gets interrupted with the presence of his mother, Corazon who introduces him to important businessmen. Jackie then feels left out and Celine sees her change in mood. Eli wishes that the lovely lady will catch his eye and she does. He gives her a smile but Jackie snobs him. This also dampens his mood. Adding to Jackie’s already foul temperament was JB’s request for her to proxy for him at a baptism when she already had plans for that day herself. He thinks that she can easily cancel on her friends, this event is much more important. After a discussion, Jackie agrees. She excuses herself and calls on Eli to get a drink. He’s surprised at Jackie’s actions – she’s downing one glass of champagne after another.

maging sino ka man book 1: plot

Maging Sino Ka Man

mskm1.jpgWhat if all your life you’ve been true to yourself and the whole world, but when you fall in love you unwittingly build your love on a lie? Can that love survive?

 

Eli is Mr. Nice Guy of Tondo. Though he was cared for by a family not his own, he grew up on a rich diet of principle and love — love that he received from his adoptive father, Dadoods, his older brother, Pong, and until 5 years ago, his strict but loving mother, Eloisa. He loved them above everything else in this world. He would do anything humanly possible to protect them from harm. Thus, when he learns that his Kuya Pong agrees to be the get-away driver in a kidnapping, he does all he can to save his brother from disaster. But, too late. When he gets to the scene of the crime, he finds his brother badly hurt from the failed kidnapping attempt, entrusting to him the care of the unconscious kidnap victim – Jackie. Against his better judgment, Eli heeds his brother’s plea.

That was five years ago when I was recording an outdoor scene for China Is So Big and got an East Pakistan word in Yunan LiJiang. The translated meaning is “Be Contented and Forget”, the meaning is to be happy and contented and to be able to forget about unhappy things; after I got the tattoo, I found that it helps!”

Ethan Ruan said happily: “The rating is so high, that’s great. In the future as long as the director gives the order, I will cooperate fully with no criterion!”
