Medyo kinulit din naman po nila ako ng bongga na kailangan sa story. Ako naman I&#x27;m very happy. Any opportunity na makapagbigay ako ng suporta sa bagong henerasyon ng mga artista para mapaganda ang show ay okay ako doon, wala akong problema doon,&quot;Locsin said.</p><p>&quot;I&#x27;m willing to do all the things para sa show na ito. Kung ano ang maitutulong kung ano ang maibibigay ay gagawin natin ng buong-buo,&quot; she added.</p><p>Star Creatives&#x27; creative head Henry Quitain clarified that Locsin&#x27;s new character Jacintha Magsaysay was not just recently added to the show. </p><p>&quot;Hindi siya guest ng show; she&#x27;s a main character of the show. Ginawa ang kuwento na kasama siya. Kasama ang pagbabalik niya siya show. Ang &#x27;La Luna&#x27; po ay kuwento ng lahat,&quot; Quitain stressed. </p><p>Locsin also downplayed speculations that she is competing with the show&#x27;s lead stars Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla.</p><p>&quot;Huwag po kayong mag-alala: ito po ay show ni Kathryn at Daniel. Kung anuman po ang mangyayari dito at mga bagong nagaganap ay para sa kanila. Lahat po tayo ay nagtutulungan at wala pong kompetensiya dito,&quot; Locsin said.</p><p>&quot;Nagpapasalamat ako kasi nung pilot week ay sobra ang pasasalamat nila sa akin. Sana ay &#x27;yun din ang maramdaman nila ngayon. Kasi pwede ko namang hindi ito gawin, okay lang naman yon, pero tulungan tayo dito. Hindi naman ako yung makikinabang dito kung hindi sila naman,&quot; added Locsin, who said she even texted Bernardo about her return.</p><p>&quot;Mukha naman siyang happy at bilang ang daming emoticons at exclamation point sa text niya. Hindi ko lang siya na-text agad kasi sekreto pa nga lang, hindi ko alam kung sino lang ba &#x27;yung nakakaalam na papasok ako. Pero bago umere ang episode ay tinext ko na siya na &#x27;Kath, I&#x27;ll see you soon.&#x27; Nagpasintabi na ako kay Kath, natuwa naman si Kath,&quot; Locsin narrated.</p><p>Now that she&#x27;s back on the show, Locsin, who had to beg off from starring in the upcoming Darna movie, said she&#x27;s prepared to do action scenes anew.</p><p>Locsin, whose <a href="http://news.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/10/27/15/how-angel-locsins-spine-was-damaged">spine problem</a> has been widely reported, cleared that she&#x27;s doing fine now.</p><p>&quot;Ang sabi nila sa akin mag-ready lang ako kasi malamang sa malamang ay bonggang fight scenes ang ipapakita namin sa inyo. Ako nagulat din, pero na-explain sa akin kung ano ang gusto nilang mangyari, kung paano gugulatin ang tao,&quot; she teased.</p>
