“Parang feeling ko I have to step up kapag si mama yung ka-eksena ko dahil nga nanay ko siya and lahat naman ng ginagawa ko ay para maging proud siya. On one hand it’s easier dahil nanay ko siya. On the other hand, it’s hard kasi nanay ko siya (laughs). Pero it was very fun. Na-appreciate ko na talagang ginawan niya ng paraan na magawa niya yung pelikula sa schedule niya at lahat,” she shared.

“Kinabahan ako eh (laughs). Mas kinabahan ako. Ewan ko ba. It was hard for me. I don’t know. Mas na-feel ko siya nung napapanuod ko na. Even kasi with my siblings, lahat kami pag papasok si mama tapos parang alanganin yung sitwasyon yung kapatid ko umiyak or ganyan. So parang onscreen parang nakaka-affect siya for me. Pero while shooting it, parang kinakabahan ako. Parang tinulungan talaga ako ni direk JP (Habac) sa eksena na yun. Na-sa-starstruck siguro ako sa nanay ko,” she explained.

“Basta tinanong ako ng nanay ko kung sino ang bago kong kaibigan tapos yung mukha niya ganito. Ganun talaga siya tumingin sa totoong buhay. Marami talagang naka-relate so iba talaga yung mga nanau noh. May psychic powers sila. Alam nila kapag meron kang iniibig. Kung makatingin yung nanay iba talaga and yung nanay ko ganyan talaga kaya medyo kinilabutan ako nung pinanuod ko,” she recalled.
