Episode 10.5

Adora dismisses the large bump on the back of her shoulder as a leftover injury from her encounter with Barbara. Minda tells her that was weeks ago, but Adora still dismisses her friend's concern.

Bencho catches Oman rehearsing how best to confess his feelings for Dorina, complete with a simple bouquet of flowers. Dorina appears at the door just then, surprising them both. Oman tells her he was only there to apologize to her for his behavior. She accepts his apology but warns him the next time he picks a fight with her for no reason, she's going to make him eat his flowers.

Oman offers to accompany Dorina to her voice lessons. Gary arrives and asks to accompany Dorina as well. The two guys eye each other but both say nothing.

Emilio drives them to Rosamia's home. Emilio notices that Dorina has left her cellphone in the car, and knocks at the gate to bring her cellphone in. Oman lets him in and Emilio also asks if it's possible for him to get something to drink. While returning his empty glass to Oman half-way up the stairs, Emilio turns and sees that Dorina's voice coach is none other than Rosamia! He is so disturbed by this turn of events that he rushes back outside. But he cannot stop himself from looking up at the window to catch a glimpse of Rosamia.

At the Arguelles home, Barbara complains that Libby has added a concert in Cebu to Lavinia's schedule even though she had it removed. Lavinia tells her that she instructed Libby to add it back because they pay well. Barbara asks her when she suddenly became interested in money. Lavinia answers -- since you started getting all my money. Barbara is upset but Lavinia simply ignores her mother and walks off to go shopping.

Gary and Oman pass the time at Rosamia's by chatting. Gary asks Oman if he is interested in cars. Oman simply plays along because he can't quite bring himself to admit that he doesn't know anything about cars.

Later that evening, Jack returns to the Arguelles home and starts throwing pebbles into the yard and calling Rita's name, just as Rita happens to be walking around the garden. She recognizes his voice and approaches the gate to ask him why he came back. He tells her she never showed up at school, where he was expecting he'd get a chance to talk to her. She pleads with him to leave, saying that she never wants to see him again, but Jack says he doesn't believe her. He insists that she has to say it to his face.

Rita asks him why he's doing this, why he's making things so hard for her. Jack responds that he is also having a hard time being away from her. He reaches through an opening in the gate and holds her hand as he confesses that he loves her.

On the way back home from Rosamia's house, Gary invites Oman to join him for a game of basketball. Oman is not interested. Gary keeps trying to find some common ground with Oman, and finally he advises Oman to try getting some guitar lessons from their bandmate Chris; once he has learned enough he can join the band. Oman apologizes for his poor behavior by saying he has a headache.

Emilio drives past Dorina's house without noticing until Dorina stops him. He excuses himself by saying he was probably distracted because he's hungry. Dorina invites him to join them for dinner before going home, but Emilio says he would prefer to leave right away, assuming it was alright with her. Dorina says yes.

Rita snatches her hand away from Jack, telling him that he shouldn't have said that he loves her. When he asks her why, she tearfully says she doesn't want to hope or expect that they can have any kind of future together, because it will only make things harder for her. Almost afraid to hope, Jack asks if this means that she also loves him.

Before Rita can answer, Barbara starts calling for Rita from inside the house. Rita pleads with him to leave, but Jack says he won't leave until she promises to see him and talk to him the next day. Left with no choice, she agrees and he leaves, saying he'll be waiting. Quietly, she responds that she'll be waiting as well.

Gary drives Oman home in his own car. Before Oman can alight from the car, Gary asks to talk to Oman. He just wants to confirm that Oman is really not courting Dorina, that he's only a friend. Gary asks for Oman's help and advice to help him in his own courtship of Dorina. Oman agrees to help Gary, but what Gary doesn't know is Oman has no intention of really helping his rival.

Later that night, Dorina has trouble sleeping and while turning in bed, she notices the mass on the back of Adora's shoulder. She also does not know what to make of it, but it is obvious she is concerned.

Emilio walks home in a daze, remembering happier times with Rosamia, and their very short time together with baby Emilia Rose. He recalls how he finally found Dorina, and Dorina's kindness towards him, as well as their moment of bonding together. Then he recalls the shock of finding out that Rosamia is Dorina's voice coach. He is obviously disturbed by all that has happened.

Later that night, Emilio returns to Rosamia's home using the taxi. Outside, he looks up into the second floor window and sees Rosamia sitting there alone, drinking a few hard drinks. What he doesn't know is that Rosamia is looking at their family photo with baby Emilia Rose, and that it is her sorrow over her lost family that is driving her to drink.
