00:00Anyway, so...
00:02The adult who cooks, sometimes you have to deliver
00:05and you told me that you've been separated from your wife for 5 years.
00:09If you don't mind, can we know the story?
00:13You've been separated for 5 years, but is it right that you've been together for 16 years?
00:16Yes.
00:18Let's go back to when you were still together.
00:21How was family back then?
00:24How was your relationship with your family?
00:26How were you and your husband at that time?
00:28When you were just starting out?
00:30When we were just starting out, it was really okay.
00:32Of course, that was the beginning.
00:36How sweet was your relationship back then?
00:38It was so painful.
00:40Really?
00:41It was so sweet?
00:43It was so embarrassing.
00:45Is that why you two were separated?
00:46Because your husband got dizzy?
00:49How sweet? How painful was it?
00:52We're both dentures now.
00:54Oh, that's how sweet it was?
00:56It was so embarrassing.
00:58Seriously, we've all experienced how happy and sweet it is to be married for 16 years.
01:08We've all experienced how hard it is,
01:10the struggle that we've been through.
01:14Even when it comes to rice,
01:16we didn't have rice at that time.
01:18You didn't have rice?
01:19We didn't have rice.
01:22We were able to find a way,
01:24but it's true,
01:26we didn't have rice.
01:28But we were able to find a way.
01:31It's just sad to think that it's true,
01:33that when you're married,
01:35you won't have rice.
01:36What were the first few years?
01:38Maybe when Bunso left,
01:43because that was the part...
01:44It was a bit late.
01:45That was the part where we were really upset
01:49because he had a heart enlargement when Bunso was born.
01:55So, it was a bit...
01:56Our Bunso was like a goldfish.
02:00We've survived a lot of challenges.
02:02We loved it so much.
02:04But...
02:05Laila is having a hard time.
02:06It's like she felt...
02:08Laila said,
02:09the goldfish,
02:10she said...
02:12She's the one who...
02:15Laila became a peacock.
02:20If Bunso is a goldfish...
02:21She's the reason why we were able to survive.
02:26Why Laila?
02:28She's our luck.
02:29She's the first child.
02:30I thought it was you.
02:31It's not you.
02:34They're the same.
02:35They're the same.
02:36One goldfish, one luck.
02:38Luck is theirs.
02:39So,
02:41like I said,
02:42we've all experienced it.
02:43And for sure, everyone with a family has experienced it.
02:46And it may be different.
02:49But for us,
02:50we can't say it's too hard.
02:52Because...
02:53Maybe we're the only ones who experienced it.
02:56Because it's different.
02:57From what we've experienced.
02:59And it's also very happy.
03:00Because the part that's very happy,
03:02is when the two kids are there.
03:04You've survived a lot of challenges.
03:06Just like any other family.
03:07Right?
03:08There are a lot of re-experiences.
03:09No food.
03:10Right?
03:11No tuition fee.
03:12Right?
03:13You got sick.
03:14No medicine.
03:15No debt.
03:16Yes.
03:17It's like what a lot of Filipinos face.
03:21Yes.
03:22The hardship in life.
03:24But it's also different,
03:26the challenge in loving your spouse.
03:30So,
03:32you've survived that.
03:33The hardship before,
03:34no food.
03:36What was the challenge that came to your spouse's life?
03:40That you had a hard time and you didn't survive.
03:43So, in that part,
03:46we were in the lowest part of our lives.
03:50We had our rockets.
03:52We had a decent job.
03:55We were both tour facilitators.
03:57Tour facilitators?
03:58Tour facilitators.
03:59Tour coordinators.
04:00What's that?
04:01Field trips.
04:03Company tours.
04:04You're the ones who explain when my guests arrive.
04:07Yes.
04:08Actually,
04:09we're also the tour facilitators.
04:13Field trips.
04:15Thank you very much.
04:17Is that out of town?
04:18Or is it a museum?
04:19It's a day tour.
04:20It's a day tour.
04:21Actually, the last two weeks,
04:23my ex and I were together.
04:25Two weeks ago?
04:26One week,
04:27we traveled to Mindanao University.
04:31So, you're still connected?
04:33Yes.
04:34In business.
04:35You don't fight?
04:39We're friends.
04:40Not just best friends.
04:42You're okay?
04:43We're okay.
04:44We're colleagues in work.
04:48That's why our other friends
04:50or our colleagues in work,
04:51are very surprised.
04:53You can do it.
04:54What happened?
04:56So, let's go back to what happened.
05:00No, let's just leave it.
05:02Let's choose.
05:05Okay.
05:06So, what happened is,
05:07let's say it's a third party,
05:11or fall out of love.
05:13So, we're both tour facilitators.
05:15We had a project in the province,
05:18Karaga region,
05:19in the part of Mindanao.
05:21We were there for two months.
05:25So, the two kids were left behind.
05:27Of course, our family took care of them.
05:30But there's still another one here.
05:32So, it's peak season here in Metro Manila.
05:34There are still some in the province.
05:36So, we decided that I'll be in charge of the province.
05:38He'll be here in Metro Manila.
05:40At least, even if he's busy,
05:41he can still attend to the needs of the kids.
05:44And that's where it started.
05:47We were so busy with work,
05:49especially me.
05:50I was addicted.
05:51I was addicted to being able to save money again.
05:54And for me, when someone asks,
05:56we couldn't handle it.
05:58It was getting better.
05:59That's when one of us got left behind.
06:02So, he went in.
06:03There was a third party.
06:04His first love came back.
06:08So, what we're talking about here is your ex-wife.
06:11Yes.
06:14She came back while you were far away.
06:17Out of Mindanao?
06:19Mindanao.
06:20Your work was in a location.
06:23Your ex-wife reconnected
06:26with her ex-boyfriend.
06:28His first love.
06:29His first love.
06:30Yes, something like that.
06:31Then,
06:32they reconnected.
06:33Their eyes met again.
06:35His first love.
06:37How did you know?
06:38Did your ex-wife tell you?
06:42In marriage,
06:43even if you don't talk,
06:44if you have a problem,
06:45you'll feel it.
06:48So,
06:49I asked her,
06:50or she told me,
06:51until I confirmed it myself
06:53on her cell phone.
06:55So, that's how it happened.
06:58It's a long story,
06:59but once I confirmed it,
07:01July 7, 2019,
07:04I left the house.
07:06No turning back.
07:07Until now.
07:08So, that's how it happened.
07:10How old were you, Leyla?
07:1216.
07:13Something like that.
07:1516, 15.
07:16Around grade 10.
07:17So, she was the first child.
07:18The relationship lasted 16 years.
07:20Were you aware of what was happening inside your house?
07:22Yes, I was super aware.
07:25How did you face it?
07:27As a 16-year-old girl
07:30studying,
07:31and suddenly,
07:32something happens to my family.
07:34And you're the eldest.
07:36Maybe,
07:37I didn't think of it that way.
07:39That,
07:40there's a deal between the two of them.
07:42That,
07:43something happens.
07:44As long as,
07:46they won't let go of their responsibilities to us.
07:50That, if they can handle the basic needs
07:52and the support,
07:54I'm okay with that.
07:55So, I didn't question it.
07:58So, there.
07:59You weren't bothered when you knew
08:03that your parents had a conflict.
08:06How was that?
08:07You were busy with your studies.
08:08Because,
08:09parents don't really feel it,
08:11that's why they weren't bothered.
08:12They will make sure that their children won't be bothered.
08:16I've been observing since I was young.
08:20Maybe, when I was in grade 1,
08:22I noticed that there's a wall between the two of them.
08:26And, not because they're bad kids,
08:28but, when I was young,
08:30I thought that,
08:31I feel like, in the future,
08:32they will also separate.
08:34Like that.
08:35Yes.
08:36You foresee it.
08:37You feel that,
08:38this won't happen for a long time.
08:40Because, as long as I feel that there's a wall between them,
08:42like,
08:43they are staying,
08:44for the sake of our family.
08:46Like that.
08:47Just for the sake of the child.
08:49Isn't it like what Tati Michael said,
08:51their relationship is like a sweet candy?
08:54In the beginning,
08:55she was already 7 years old.
08:58Then, it changed.
09:00It changed.
09:01So, it changed.
09:02But, even if your feelings changed,
09:03you still chose to be together,
09:05because you're already a family.
09:06Yes.
09:07Because, one of my concerns,
09:09personally, is,
09:11love is a commitment.
09:14There will also come a time
09:16when your wife will have a lot of problems.
09:21Maybe,
09:22we'll forget about love.
09:24Because, we're facing a lot of problems.
09:26We need to find a solution.
09:28Since, you're already together,
09:30this is our solution.
09:32And, maybe, that's our mistake.
09:34Or, we have the same mistake.
09:37Because,
09:38we put it aside.
09:40When we fight,
09:41we don't talk about it anymore.
09:42The pride,
09:43we just let it end.
09:45Then, it's okay.
09:46We'll work again.
09:47We'll save money again.
09:49And,
09:50again,
09:51that's what I thought before,
09:53that,
09:54in a relationship,
09:56at the end of the day,
09:57you'll choose to be together.
10:00So that,
10:01you'll be whole.
10:02And, I'll forget,
10:04or we'll forget,
10:05that we should have
10:06the same thing for ourselves.
10:08That, it's just the two of us.
10:09That,
10:10it's intimate.
10:11That, we need to feel.
10:13So, that's my mistake.
10:17There.
10:20It hurts.
10:21It's so deep.
10:22You just said,
10:23there.
10:24It's not true.
10:25There's a lot,
10:26I've heard a lot of stories,
10:28I've met a lot of people,
10:30who say,
10:31they have a lot of issues
10:32inside the house.
10:33The last thing they fix,
10:35or fix,
10:36is their issue with their spouse.
10:37Because,
10:38they prioritize their children's food.
10:40A lot of layers.
10:41Paying for their debts,
10:42paying for their water,
10:43for their enrollment,
10:44for their mother's medicine,
10:45for their illness,
10:46for the rent of the house,
10:48for their divorce.
10:49A lot of things you think about,
10:51because the family's life is hard,
10:54the last thing they fix,
10:56is their relationship.
10:57Their personal relationship.
10:58Even if they don't talk anymore,
10:59even if they don't go home,
11:00your father,
11:01are you going home?
11:02No.
11:03Let him be.
11:04Just tell him,
11:05to pay for the water.
11:06Yes.
11:07The financial one.
11:08Love,
11:09I'm not going home next week.
11:10It's okay.
11:11Just put your second child
11:12in the kitchen.
11:13The daily needs.
11:14Yes.
11:15Of course,
11:17all of that is a problem.
11:18So, everything should be fixed.
11:20So, there.
11:21You said,
11:22to commit to the relationship.
11:23At the end,
11:27who let go?
11:28You or him?
11:29Because you didn't go home.
11:30So,
11:31what is that?
11:32Is that the signal?
11:33For me,
11:34when we talked,
11:35sorry, I cut you off.
11:36It's okay.
11:37When I found out,
11:40confirmed that
11:41there was someone,
11:42when we talked,
11:43I asked,
11:44the two of us,
11:45who?
11:47Which is Michael.
11:49It's just the two of us.
11:50Michael too?
11:51Yes.
11:52His first love,
11:53I'll just ask,
11:54are you married?
11:55Yes, Ibil.
11:56His first love
11:57and his future wife,
11:58are both Michael.
12:00Yes.
12:01You just didn't leave?
12:02Huh?
12:03You just didn't leave?
12:04Yes.
12:05I hope it's Pedro next.
12:06For St. Michael and St.
12:07or St. Peter,
12:08something like that.
12:09But no.
12:10Maybe,
12:11there are really different
12:12Michael's to him.
12:13Maybe,
12:14the Michael's
12:15are too much
12:16loved by him.
12:17So,
12:18when I confirmed
12:19that
12:20it's him,
12:21and I also know
12:22that person.
12:23His first love.
12:24I also know him
12:25because we were young
12:26in that place.
12:29So,
12:30it's like
12:31deep,
12:32the emotions are heavy.
12:34It entered me
12:35as if
12:36I don't have a fight.
12:37Because,
12:38I fought
12:39the first one.
12:40But,
12:41I don't know
12:42how deep
12:43their relationship was back then.
12:44Yes,
12:45because we talked about it.
12:46Early,
12:48honestly,
12:49what I miss
12:50in our relationship
12:51of 16 years,
12:52is the friendship
12:53that we built.
12:55Because,
12:56there were times before
12:57when we were outside,
12:59even if
13:00we didn't
13:01talk about it,
13:02there was one thing
13:03that made us laugh
13:04and we saw both of them.
13:05When we looked at each other,
13:06we were already laughing.
13:07And then,
13:08it's gone.
13:09That's our connection
13:10in our friendship.
13:11And then,
13:12you went to work.
13:13Yes,
13:14it's gone.
13:15So,
13:16you're aware.
13:17So,
13:18you're like,
13:19oh,
13:20it's back.
13:21It's painful.
13:22It's sudden.
13:23But,
13:24you already know it.
13:25But,
13:26when you find out
13:27that it's like
13:28you got slapped
13:29in the face,
13:30it's like
13:31the pain doubled.
13:37Why did you let go?
13:42I don't want to see
13:43I don't want to see
13:47I don't want to see
13:48that this could happen.
13:51What do you mean?
13:52Because,
13:53at that time,
13:54Leila was there.
13:55Caleb was there.
13:56They knew.
13:57The kids were so mature
13:58in the way
13:59we treated them.
14:01We explained
14:02what the problem was.
14:03And,
14:04that's probably
14:05the biggest problem
14:06they witnessed.
14:09It's hard
14:10on the part of men.
14:11It's hard
14:12on the part of women.
14:13But,
14:16there,
14:19I don't want the kids
14:20to see that
14:22this could happen.
14:26So, I left.
14:28And,
14:31it's July 7,
14:342019,
14:35right now.
14:36Yes.
14:38I said goodbye to you.
14:39You left.
14:40And,
14:42did your ex
14:43leave the house?
14:45No.
14:46When did you decide?
14:48So,
14:49where are the kids now?
14:51I'm with my dad.
14:52And,
14:53my younger brother
14:54is with my mom.
14:56So, your mom
14:57stayed at your house
14:58until now?
15:00And,
15:01how are they
15:02with her ex?
15:04Did they get back together?
15:05Yes.
15:06Oh,
15:07they're still together?
15:08Yes.
15:09And,
15:10where are they now?
15:16Did you have a swap?
15:19Why did you ask that?
15:20I feel like I'm going to break.
15:21She's crying.
15:22I feel like I'm going to break.
15:23I did it to break.
15:24Okay.
15:25There's a rollercoaster
15:26of emotions here.
15:27Yes.
15:28I'm just holding back.
15:30But,
15:31so,
15:32you left.
15:33So, you stayed there
15:34with your mom.
15:35And,
15:36Michael,
15:37your ex,
15:38stayed there
15:39with you.
15:40But,
15:41you talked about it.
15:42Because,
15:43it's your house.
15:44No.
15:45Because,
15:46when I left,
15:48it happened
15:49that seven days
15:50after I left,
15:52we had a project
15:53in Cebu and Bohol.
15:55I left right away.
15:57So,
15:59it's a good thing
16:00that moving forward,
16:02you're busy.
16:03You're busy.
16:04And,
16:05the places you go to,
16:06are not the places
16:07you see everyday
16:08and you don't have memories
16:09with them.
16:10Yes.
16:11And,
16:12I don't have time
16:13to go back there.
16:14I'll be like this.
16:15Because,
16:16you're so far.
16:17You'll fly again.
16:18You'll go back again.
16:19You'll go back to Manila.
16:20You'll go back to Bulacan.
16:21We're not pressuring you.
16:23I don't want to have
16:24a conflict here.
16:25We're not pressuring you.
16:26So, there.
16:28But,
16:29what's scary there,
16:31if you left
16:33and you didn't say anything,
16:35what's scary there
16:36is that
16:37what will happen
16:38is that your children
16:39will think that you abandoned them.
16:41Didn't that happen?
16:42Oh,
16:43our father left us.
16:45No,
16:46because he called me
16:47from time to time.
16:48But,
16:49he didn't come back home.
16:50What's his explanation to you?
16:52He said goodbye to me.
16:54Oh, he said that to you.
16:55Yes, he said that to me.
16:57And,
16:58it's okay
16:59if he's there at peace.
17:01He'll feel better
17:02when he's far
17:03than when he's with us.
17:05My mom is there.
17:06Before,
17:07I feel that
17:08Caleb didn't accept
17:09that you were talking about that.
17:11Because he's the youngest.
17:12He was younger back then.
17:16He didn't answer.
17:17His face was blank
17:18when you asked
17:19or when you made fun
17:20about our separation
17:21from his mom.
17:22So,
17:23I was talking
17:24about my sister.
17:26Did you accept
17:27that
17:28the one you married
17:31wasn't really you,
17:32his love?
17:34That his first love
17:36back then
17:37was still
17:38the one in his heart.
17:40Yes.
17:42Because,
17:43the pandemic came.
17:44It's a pandemic.
17:45It's the peak of the pandemic.
17:47So,
17:48I said,
17:49thank you to TikTok
17:50for saving
17:52the depression.
17:53Because,
17:54you can't go out.
17:56The fact that
17:57you're not with your family.
17:58You're separated.
17:59You can't go to your kids.
18:01You're running out of money.
18:03You don't have money to spend.
18:06In the morning,
18:07you'll just sleep
18:08downstairs
18:09with my brother.
18:13I mean,
18:14in the evening.
18:15Then, in the morning,
18:16you won't go anywhere.
18:18Because,
18:19you can't go out.
18:20You'll be on TikTok again.
18:21After TikTok,
18:23you'll be on a tree
18:24with a duyan.
18:25It's so...
18:27That duyan is so significant
18:28at that time.
18:29So,
18:30that's the cycle of life.
18:31Until I let go
18:32of my anger
18:33because
18:34nothing will happen.
18:35It's a pandemic.
18:36Did you forgive them?
18:37Gradually,
18:38yes.
18:39Now,
18:40it's all gone.
18:41Because,
18:42you can tell a story.
18:43You're crying.
18:44Your voice is cracking.
18:45But,
18:46your story is like,
18:47you're ready.
18:48You're accepting it.
18:49You can tell it.
18:50You can think about it.
18:51Because,
18:52when it hurts so much,
18:53sometimes,
18:54you don't want to talk about it.
18:55You don't want to be a topic.
18:56Because,
18:57it still hurts.
18:58Right?
18:59But now,
19:00it's like you're telling a story
19:01so easily.
19:02I feel like
19:03I'm slowly letting go.
19:04Now,
19:05I'll tell you her name.
19:06Because,
19:07before,
19:08when I talked to Leila,
19:09What's her name?
19:10Ah,
19:11Leila.
19:12Hey, guys.
19:13He mentioned it.
19:14He mentioned it.
19:15It's Leila.
19:16That's why Leila.
19:17Leila and Leila.
