On Sept. 5, Glydel Mercado brings to life the story of a mother who will do everything to save her children from a flash flood that threatens their lives. Joining Glydel in the episode titled “Nalunod” are award-winning actors Allen Dizon and Therese Malvar.
On Sept. 12, Rochelle Pangilinan headlines the “Inararo” episode, a story about a couple who lost their jobs amid the pandemic and became fruit vendors to earn a living. Jason Abalos plays Rochelle’s husband in the story. Also in the episode are Shayne Sava, Lexi Gonzales, and Irma Adlawan.
Arra San Agustin, Thea Tolentino, and Juancho Triviño are siblings whose relationship will be tested because of Herlene Budol’s character in the Sept. 19 episode titled “Nasunog.” In the story, Almira Muhlach plays the mother of Arra, Thea, and Juancho.
Rounding off the fresh stories this month is the “Inilibing” episode bannered by no less than Jean Garcia. Airing on Sept. 26, Inilibing also features Vaness del Moral and Adrian Alandy. In the story, Lorna (Jean) thought that Efren (Adrian) was the perfect guy only to find out otherwise. It turns out that on top of being an abusive partner, Efren has another woman (Vaness). Lorna will do everything to fight for her life and for her child.
