Piolo Pascual (Mark Peters)
The moment where Mark
(Piolo) insists that he was with
Carmina (Toni) when he talked
to the grandma’s at the church
asking if they saw Carmina again
there.
Mark was angry because
he was fooled and scammed by
his own mother. That’s why he
wants to kill his self to get his
mother from the hole where it
hides itself.
Day until night, every day,
Mark still always returns to the
Jones Bridge to see and have a
chance to talk again to Carmina
with flowers.
Mark didn’t find her
mother that’s why he decided to
commit suicide at the Jones
Bridge, but Carmina suddenly
came out convinced him that
they will kill their selves together
in a creative way.
After a couple of days of
waiting, Carmina showed again
to him. They talked and shown
to him what he will regret if he
will pursue to commit suicide.
After that, Mark accepted that
he can’t be with Carmina. Mark
moved on and rises up again to
make a better new life.
