HALO-HALONG emosyon ang lumukob sa amin while going over the transcribed voice interview of Jake Ejercito, ang kaibigang Allan Diones ang nakakuha sa side ng binata sa London, where the latter is taking up political science and business management (na inilabas namin in two parts).
Jake had to speak up makaraang ipahayag ni Jaclyn Jose sa press ang umano’y pagtutol ng kanyang mga magulang sa anak nitong si Andi Eigenmann. Ang pagiging dalagang ina rin ni Andi ang posibleng ikinaaayaw nina dating Pangulong Joseph Estrada at Laarni Enriquez sa kanyang anak for Jake.
Kaagad na nilinaw ni Erap ang isyu, all that he and Laarni want for their son is to finish his studies. No such insinuations. Despite that, Jake still has high respect for whom he addresses as “Tita Jane” (palayaw ng aktres). What is more affecting though, sa lahat ng mga ipinagtapat ni Jake, ay ang ‘di-nagbago niyang pagtingin kay Andi na nakarelasyon din niya for more than two years.
Una, before Jake went back to London ay nagkaroon sila ng lovers’ quarrel ni Andi. Such spats are normal in any couple, pero malinaw na walang breakup na naganap sa kanila. Months passed, pumutok ang balitang buntis si Andi. That time, Jake’s mom Laarni was out of the country, pero nabalitaan niya ‘yon. Instantly, she called Jake via overseas. Nagtataka si Laarni kung bakit nabuntis si Andi, gayong break na sila ni Jake?
Noon lang nalaman ni Laarni that it was a different guy who got Andi pregnant, si Albie Casiño. In other words, lumalabas—in the words of Jake—na pinagsabay sila ni Albie ng iisang kasintahan.
Jake had every reason to turn his back on Andi, pero hindi niya ‘yon ginawa. ”Martir ako”,sabi ni Jake. In fact, he still has nice words for Andi na sana’y mag-focus pa sa kanyang career at alagaan ang anak niyang si Ellie.
Here is a young, dreamy-eyed man na hindi mo masisisi kung umabot man hanggang langit ang galit sa “two-timer” na nobya, yet his heart still goes out to his first love. Here is a man mula sa kilalang angkan sa bansa, yet he does not possess the trappings of a powerful person.
It only goes to show na maganda ang pagpapalaki nina Erap at Laarni kay Jake, even to their other children.
Because of that voice interview, women, for sure, will begin to wonder: ”May lalaki pa palang ganoon?” in this day and age of physical or emotional battery na dinaranas ng mga kababaihan sa piling ng kanilang mga partner.
Mas naawa kami kay Jake. This guy Andideserves to be happy with a girl many times better than Andi. He doesn’t deserve Andi at all.
Samantala, tinangka ng Startalk na kunin ang panig ni Jaclyn, but her manager Ed Instrella begged off for his ward.
Ayaw na ring patulan ni Mrs. Rina Casiño, ina ni Albie, ang isyu, but she thinks her son is vindicated batay sa mga pahayag ni Jake.
Ironically, Andi plays a martyr partner of Jake Cuenca (Jake talaga!) in an ABS-CBN late-night soap when in truth, malayo ito sa kanyang real-life character.
Yung totoo? Bakit napakaLANDI niyang andi na yan.
