THE PROMISE Episode 70


We started with Angelo and Ligaya being arrested for hurting one of the children they were supposed to coach. They were detained there until someone went to bail both of them out.

Yna tried to figure out what David wanted to tell her and she told Takong about it. Yna remembered that when she first arrived in San Francisco two years ago, David tried to ask her to be his girlfriend but she turned him down. David however said that he would not give on her until she agreed to be with him. When Yna told Takong about this, he told her that David may be planning on asking her to be his girlfriend again but Yna said that they were only best friends.
Greggy went to bail Angelo out of prison and Ligaya was left inside because the captain wanted her mother to go bail her out. Ligaya tried to call her mother but she said she did not care and asked Ligaya not to call her again. Ligaya cried and Angelo felt sorry for her. Sir Greggy offered to bail Ligaya out but the captain refused to let him. Ichu went with Lloyd to talk to the captain and Lloyd offered to give some money to the captain in order to release Ligaya.  As Ligaya was leaving the cell, she told Angelo that she was only pretending to cry in order to get sympathy. When Ligaya got home, Ichu told her that it was better that her mother did not go to see her.
 The following day, Angelo went to see Ligaya at her house and offered her flowers as an apology for getting her in trouble. Ligaya refused to take them arguing that they had ants or would make her itch. Angelo said that if they had ants, then he would already have been bitten. He said that he only wanted to apologize but Ligaya read into it and told Angelo that he only wanted to apologize to her so that she could date Lloyd. Angelo did not refute it and said that Lloyd thought that Ligaya refused to accept him because Angelo had a feud with her. Ligaya took the flowers and threw them away.
Yna was supposed to meet David and she found a series of clues leading her to where David was. The surprise that David had for Yna was that he already had a girlfriend. He introduced his girlfriend called Chelsea to Yna and took both of them out together on a date.
Chelsea was busy because she was working on an American timeline so she did not join David and Yna in their activities. She however watched the two of them and realized how close they were. She went to sit between them as if claiming her territory and when they were done with dinner, she asked David to take her home.
Ligaya’s mother went home and beat up Ligaya for having made her leave what she was doing to go home because of her.
Angelo baked cupcakes for Ligaya and took them to her. He went with Lloyd who had flowers and other gifts but Ligaya asked them not to enter the house. She asked them to throw the things they had brought on her window instead because she did not want her mother who was sleeping to hear them. Lloyd threw the stuff up to her but Ligaya stumbled when she went to catch the box of cupcakes. She hit a picture frame and the commotion woke up her mother. She woke up and harassed Ligaya for knocking over her sister’s picture frame. Angelo and Lloyd watched the scene but Ichu walked over to the window and closed it.
Angelo was disturbed after seeing how Ligaya was mistreated by her mother and sought to mend his feud with her instead of fighting with her.
David visited Yna and her family the following day and brought them stuff that Amor had sent. He talked to Yna about an investor for their restaurant saying that his girlfriend Chelsea had offered to invest with them. Yna’s face fell and she told David that she did not want him to mix his relationship with her business because it was important to her.
Liya continued to be used by the other students in school and always got home really late because she was doing their projects.
Angelo and Lloyd made a “SORRY” array for Ligaya but she was not impressed with it. Bubwit went to interview Ligaya and asked why she had refused to accept Angelo’s apology. Ligaya said that it was because Angelo was not sincere; he only said sorry so that he could help out Lloyd court her. Bubwit told this to Angelo when he got back at the bakery.
A woman visited the bakery shop and said that she had been sent by the bank to inform them that their shop would be foreclosed if they did not pay what they owed within two months. That was where we ended…
