But the actor has yet to decide on the perfect present to give her due to his hectic work schedule. “<i>Oo naman</i> ready <i>na ako. Alam kong</i> excited <i>siya sa</i> debut<i> niya at ako rin</i> excited<i> bilang </i>escort <i>niya. Yung</i> gift <i>ko pinagiisipan ko pa. Yun nga ang mahirap eh.</i> I’m sure <i>may regalo lahat sa kanya. Bahala na kung ano maisip kong ibigay</i>,” he said in an interview with <a href='Push.com.ph'>Push.com.ph</a> during the recent trade event for his teleserye Juan Dela Cruz.</div><div><br/></div><div>Coco previously stated that the fact that Julia chose him to be her escort for her debut only means that she has special feelings for him compared to the rest of her male friends. He also told the press that he will wait until she turns 18 before deciding whether to court her or not. But when asked if he plans to pursue Julia when she is of legal age, the multi-awarded actor replied, “<i>Saka na natin pagusapan ‘yan.</i>”</div><div><br/></div><div>In the meantime, Coco is very happy that his new primetime teleserye ranks number one in the national TV ratings based on Kantar Media-TNS survey. He also gave credit to his co-stars who help spice up the plot of <i>Juan Dela Cruz</i> including guest star Gretchen Barretto. “<i>Hindi ko in</i>expect <i>na ganon siya kabait at kasarap na katrabaho. Sana nga medyo humaba yung araw na nag</i>-taping <i>siya sa amin.</i> Love<i> na</i> love<i> siya ng</i> staff <i>ng Juan dela Cruz kasi napakabait niya at</i> professional <i>katrabaho. Sana makatrabaho ko siya ulit</i>.”</div><div><br/></div><div>Coco was also all praises for veteran actor Eddie Garcia who’s the latest addition to the show’s cast. “Actually <i>kapag nasa</i> set <i>siya lagi ko siyang pinupuntahan at kinakausap kasi ang dami kong gusto matutunan sa kanya e—yung tamang </i>behavior<i> sa trabaho at pagmamahal niya sa katrabaho niya. Sana matutunan ko yun. Alam ko na may makukuha akong aral sa kanya.” </i></div><div><br/></div>
