Way back in the 70's, a scene in the movie Sunshine really made it to my heart. The hero fell in love with the heroine (naturally) who had a young girl from another man. The heroine was dying. Kung tama ang memorya ko, sa heroine ang dialogue na ito sa deathbed niya:
"Who's gonna clean the toilet...?"Itinaboy niya ang bidang lalaki kasama ng anak niya upang hindi nito makita ang pagkamatay niya. Ang ending ng kuwento ay tumatakbo ang motorsiklo ng bidang lalaki, nakaangkas sa likod niya ang isang batang babae. Ang backdrop ng tila anino ng tumatakbong motorsiklo ay hindi ko madesisyunan kung dusk o dawn.
Inspired from the movie scene and also from a Miss Saigon school play where my son was one of the characters. Natuon ang atensiyon ko sa estudyanteng gumanap ng papel na Chris. His name's Prince fourth year high school.
The young man was tall, dark and handsome. And he was also his rich father's bastard. He hadn't made a secret of it. After high school, he left school.
He was my visual inspiration for my Prince in this story.
Anyway, where Sunshine ended, Someday My
Prince begins. Enjoy reading.MARTHA CECILIA
