What happens in Baler, stays in Baler

I was never a fan of sunrise. But this one is quite memorable.

April 26,2025

Sobrang daming emosyon sa Baler Trip na to.

Sabado, hindi ako umuwi kasi need kong tapusin ang pagphotocopy at sort ng Petition.

Na long message ako kasi pinag overthink ko si Atty. Ana. Nasa SM Makati ako non, naluluha na kasi pagod ka na nga, nasermunan ka pa.

Bumalik sa office, ginawa yung mga draft at records and eventually, umalis papuntang Baler.

April 27,2025

Linggo ng umaga, medyo ilap pa ako na makihalubilo sa sobrang pagod at pag-iisip paano ang gagawin naming filing sa Petition. Nag loosen up lang ako nung nasa Hotel na kami.

Nag swimming kami, dun na nagchat yung boss ko na secret daw muna at pupunta na rin siya.

Sobrang saya ko no'n. Gusto ko siyang nakikita e. Parang kulang pag di ko nakikita at nakakausap boss ko personally pag may event.

Then she came the morning after. She asked if want ko siya samahan sa kabilang hotel. Tapos ipinangalan na sa akin yung isang bed, sinamahan ko siya magstay don.

Naawa ako kasi she mentioned that it was her first time na hindi kasama si Ridam.

Nag team building kami, pareho kaming magulo :D

Pero sobrang saya ko. :")

After the inuman, nagkwento siya at naiyak sa nangyayari about sa mga kineme.

I can sense na we would still be having a heart to heart after the convo with our colleagues.

Sobrang open niya, nagpunta kami sa 711 to buy cup noodles. Naka abrisyete na ako sa kanya. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA grabe talaga aaaa.

English english kaming dalawa.

"Kasi nga ganito nga yon.... si board sec..."

blah blah about board sec.

Umupo kami sa isang bench sa aliya surf, dun na nagsimula ang heart to heart, she is trying to convey na hindi para sa kanya ang pagpapamilya pero nandun na. Career driven kasi talaga siya.

I understand now she has a bad temper kasi ganun ang kinalakihan niyang household. She assured me na yung galit niya, after 2 seconds wala na.

Yung husband niya ang pacifier niya at tagapagparealize sa galit niya.

She purposedly got drunk because she wanted to forget her baby even for awhile. Huhuhu. Masakit dibdib niya kasi di siya nakapaglabas ng milk. She wanted her son to stop BF but kahit di pa ko nanay, she will be hurt.

I never had a chance to hug her pero gusto siya i-hug. Hahahaha napakaclingy amputa.

Hay. Sobrang buti mong tao. Love ko na ikaw!

I looked at my mother because I was a version of my mother. I looked away from my mother because I was a version of my mother. I was me, but I was also her—my mother, and I understood this all too well.

She feels like home, the kind you wander the world searching for, only to realize it’s where her presence dwells.

"Are you okay?" No, from the bottom of my heart, I'm tired.
