The September 19 episode of Maalaala Mo Kaya features the dramatic prowess of veteran actor Ronaldo Valdez and rising child star Mika dela Cruz in a heart-warming story about family.
Mika plays the role of young Chen who has always been an avid fan of Philippine folklore because it was what her Lolo Uge (Valdez) instilled in her. But unlike other kids who eventually outgrow their fascination with mythical creatures such as dwarves and fairies, Chen believes that they have the power to cure her mom’s cancer. But when her mom suddenly dies, she begins to hate her grandfather for telling her the stories which she now sees as lies.
Will she ever forgive Lolo Uge for encouraging her to hold on to her fantasies? Catch Maalaala Mo Kaya right after The Singing Bee on ABS-CBN.
