Pinsang-buo ni Alfonso Martinez sa amang si Albert Martinez si Patricia (anak naman ni William Martinez) na naging kontrobersyal kamakailan dahil sa sexual harassment case filed against Baron Geisler. Inamin ni Alfonso sa PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) na nasaktan din siya sa nangyaring 'yon sa kanyang pinsan.
"We're kind of close kasi ni Patricia," sabi ni Alfonso. "I got shocked when I saw her on TV, and she was, like, crying in the news.
"Yeah, I wasn't really there when it happened. I didn't know how it started, kaya mahirap mag-judge. But then, she's my cousin. Like, how am I suppose to react?
"At saka yung umiyak siya, medyo I felt, like, mad, and at the same time, sad. Although, I'm not naman the type who will confront Baron when I see him. Star Magic talent din kasi yun, and it's just a small world.
"Ang sa akin siguro, the least that I can do, wait for what will transpire. Kasi, nasa court na ang kaso. I mean, hindi naman ako yung tipong walang breeding na manununtok o mang-aaway na lang.
"I feel for Patricia, but Tito William and Tita Yayo [Aguila], I guess, they just did the right thing. Idaan na lang sa korte," paliwanag pa ni Alfonso.
WHEN A BULLY CRIES... Nakausap niya si Patricia, at nang ikuwento sa kanya ng pinsan ang pangyayari, napaiyak daw ito sa kanya.
"We practically grew up together kasi," sabi pa ni Alfonso. "Like, matanda lang siya sa akin ng a few months. kaya, naroroon ang closeness.
"Astig 'yang si Patricia. Like, when we're little kids, siya yung type na bully. Babae siya, pero may dating na matigas.
"But, at that instance na napaiyak siya, I really got hurt. Kadugo ko pa rin yun. She's like a sister to me," napapailing na pagpapatuloy niya.
Naisip din kasi niya, paano kung sa kapatid niya mismo nangyari yun.
"Oh, I don't know," sabi niya. "Hindi ko alam kung violent ang reaction ko, but my dad will certainly get mad. Magwawala yun kapag naagrabyado ang kahit sino sa aming magkakapatid.
"Hindi ko rin nga alam how my dad immediately reacted on what happened to Patricia. Definitely, Tito William was fuming mad. Hanggang ngayon nga, galit sila ni Tita Yayo.
"My dad kasi was in Malaysia when it happened. Magkasama sila ni Jericho Rosales for that international TV series which they were doing at that time. When he came back, at least, nai-file na yung case. Idinadaan na sa legal process," sabi pa ni Alfonso.
NOT FULL BLAST IN SHOWBIZ. Nasa preparation pa rin sa kanyang pormal na pagpasok sa showbiz si Alfonso dahil nakatuon ang atensiyon niya sa pag-aaral ng kursong Multi-Media Arts sa College of St. Benilde sa Maynila.
"Guestings lang muna ako, wala pang regular show. Ang gusto ko sana, when I get into this, yung tuluy-tuloy na. Na may improvement talaga, lalo na sa akting.
"I want to join acting workshops. Even my dad kasi, he's already a very good actor, and yet, he goes to the workshops pa, if he feels there's a need to do it. Ngayon kasi, nakiki-sit in pa lang ako sa workshops ng Star Magic talents. Wala pa talaga yung nakatutok na ako, 'cause I want pa to concentrate muna on my studies," banggit ni Alfonso.
PRESSURED BY LOLA. Inamin ni Alfonso na may pressure sa kanya ang pag-aartista. Hanggang ngayon, yun ang kinukulit sa kanya ng lola niyang si Amalia Fuentes.
"Like my lola always tells me, 'Naku, kailangang may marating ka!' Ang point niya kasi, she became a movie queen. My dad became an award-winning actor. So, ayaw nilang pumasok ako sa showbiz na magpe-fail lang ako.
"It's an every day pressure on me. Kaya nga, I'm taking my time. Magpu-full blast ako, kung ready na talaga ako. At this point, I'm still on the process of preparing myself for being an artista," pagwawakas ni Alfonso.
