00:05:02 The elementary rules of usage form the possessive singular.
00:05:08 Nox, you're really making a mess there.
00:05:11 Yes, you're even speaking in English.
00:05:13 Who's English is this?
00:05:17 Oh, my.
00:05:18 You're all so jealous.
00:05:20 Because even if you want to, you don't know how to speak English.
00:05:25 Who?
00:05:26 Us?
00:05:27 Jealous?
00:05:28 Are you jealous?
00:05:29 Hey, you're so envious.
00:05:31 I'm telling you, we're both farmers here.
00:05:35 So don't make us jealous, okay?
00:05:38 Don't make me look like you.
00:05:41 Because even if you hit me with a rock, I'll be able to leave this place.
00:05:44 Oh, like that.
00:05:46 So you don't need these anymore.
00:05:49 You're so shameless.
00:05:51 What's wrong with you?
00:05:52 I thought you're all set.
00:05:54 Bye.
00:05:55 Oh, you thought I wouldn't let you hit me?
00:05:58 Well, don't blame me for what might happen to you because you started this.
00:06:03 Oh, like that.
00:06:04 [Music]
00:06:24 You're really different from them, son.
00:06:27 That's why you're so competitive.
00:06:29 I don't want this anymore.
00:06:33 I don't want to live like this, one-sided.
00:06:36 I don't want to be blinded because I'm poor.
00:06:39 I'm sorry, son.
00:06:44 This is the kind of life that I can give you.
00:06:50 Mom, that's not what I meant.
00:06:54 That's why I'm so competitive in Manila.
00:07:01 I just want to make our lives easier.
00:07:04 That's all I want.
00:07:06 I don't see us getting along.
00:07:09 My siblings are fighting over a piece of fish.
00:07:14 I'm scared for you, son.
00:07:22 This is where we'll be together.
00:07:30 It's so hard.
00:07:31 How will you get there?
00:07:36 You're alone.
00:07:39 What if you get sick?
00:07:42 What if you don't have money?
00:07:46 Mom, I don't want to worry.
00:07:55 I'm used to being poor.
00:08:00 I've been through a lot.
00:08:02 You'll see.
00:08:05 I'll be able to finish my studies.
00:08:08 I'll find a good job.
00:08:11 I'll work at the bank or at the office.
00:08:14 What are you talking about?
00:08:16 I'm still wearing my uniform.
00:08:17 Mom, that's enough.
00:08:27 I want you to be happy for me.
00:08:30 I promise you,
00:08:34 you won't regret letting me go.
00:08:38 I promise.
00:08:40 Your mother will be successful.
00:08:43 Your mother will be successful.
00:08:45 I promise.
00:08:47 I promise.
00:08:48 I promise.
00:08:50 I promise.
00:08:52 I'm sorry.
00:08:53 I'm sorry.
00:09:22 What is it?
00:09:23 I'm sorry.
00:09:24 Can I ask where the accounting department is?
00:09:27 You're going to do accounting?
00:09:28 Well, good luck.
00:09:29 I've been waiting for you for so long.
00:09:30 Are you going to eat?
00:09:31 Excuse me, Madam.
00:09:51 This is journalism, not a vocational course.
00:09:53 I'm Susan Sevilio.
00:10:04 I'm taking journalism.
00:10:07 You're so stupid.
00:10:19 Susan, you're so stupid.
00:10:21 You can't just study there.
00:10:24 You might get an ulcer.
00:10:25 I'm okay.
00:10:27 I just don't eat.
00:10:29 Is that allowed?
00:10:32 You're not hungry?
00:10:33 You're a library assistant.
00:10:35 And you're studying.
00:10:37 If I were you,
00:10:39 I'd be so stupid.
00:10:40 I don't have time to eat.
00:10:44 I'll just study.
00:10:46 Wait.
00:10:48 Aren't you really hungry?
00:10:50 Your fried chicken is getting cold.
00:10:53 And you don't want to admit that you're not hungry anymore.
00:10:56 Because I'll treat you again.
00:10:57 Right?
00:10:58 I'll pay for it tomorrow.
00:11:01 I'm okay.
00:11:02 I said, don't.
00:11:03 I'll treat you.
00:11:04 Don't.
00:11:05 One more sandwich.
00:11:06 And juice.
00:11:09 There.
00:11:11 Take that.
00:11:12 If you don't take it, I'll get mad.
00:11:13 It's free.
00:11:15 Straw.
00:11:17 Thank you.
00:11:18 Welcome.
00:11:19 Oh, Susan.
00:11:20 I really believe in you.
00:11:22 You're really taking your journalism seriously.
00:11:26 Did you know that I thought you were just a provincial girl?
00:11:32 So what?
00:11:34 So, you're a poor provincial girl.
00:11:39 You know,
00:11:44 I took this course
00:11:45 because my dad knows a big shot in a TV station.
00:11:49 So, when I graduate,
00:11:51 I'll be rich.
00:11:53 You're lucky if that's the case.
00:11:56 I need to agree to everything.
00:11:58 What do you want to be when we graduate?
00:12:02 Me?
00:12:04 I don't have any dreams in life.
00:12:06 I just want to be beautiful, fashionable,
00:12:10 and look like a kid.
00:12:12 That's it.
00:12:13 That's my dream.
00:12:14 That's all.
00:12:15 That's all?
00:12:17 What about you? What's your dream?
00:12:19 Me?
00:12:22 I want to be like the newscasters on TV.
00:12:28 Like them.
00:12:30 Tina Monzon-Palma,
00:12:32 Helen Vela,
00:12:34 like that.
00:12:35 It's just a dream.
00:12:38 Yeah.
00:12:40 Your friends told you, right?
00:12:42 It's free to dream.
00:12:44 You know?
00:12:45 This is the
00:12:48 This is the D
00:12:51 This is the D-W-A
00:12:57 Oh my God, what is that?
00:12:58 It's just a station ID.
00:13:00 You can't even tell me.
00:13:01 Next!
00:13:02 Can I have the next application?
00:13:04 Just a moment.
00:13:05 I'm just a bit nervous.
00:13:07 One more.
00:13:09 Can I have one more?
00:13:10 Okay, sure.
00:13:11 But this is the last one.
00:13:12 And if you can't get it,
00:13:14 you can go to the next station.
00:13:16 There are more people there
00:13:18 who are better and more presentable than you.
00:13:21 It's ready.
00:13:25 It's ready.
00:13:26 Okay, recording.
00:13:27 This is DWAB-62,
00:13:31 the station of your radio stations.
00:13:33 And this is Susan Seville,
00:13:34 for the newscasts.
00:13:35 Cut.
00:13:39 You're so good at this.
00:13:41 Next.
00:13:43 What's happening?
00:13:47 What's happening to you?
00:13:48 It's the first time in history
00:13:49 that you suddenly got an accident.
00:13:50 I thought you were already in the hospital.
00:13:51 What happened to you?
00:13:52 You know what happened to me?
00:13:54 What?
00:13:55 I got accepted in the radio station.
00:13:56 You're already an announcer?
00:13:58 Not yet.
00:13:59 But I'm an assistant.
00:14:00 That's where it's going, right?
00:14:02 Really?
00:14:03 You're so amazing.
00:14:04 You know, you might be on TV next.
00:14:06 You're going to greet me.
00:14:07 You know, I'm going to do my best
00:14:10 so that this will continue.
00:14:12 I'm so happy for you.
00:14:13 I'll do it for you.
00:14:14 Okay, okay.
00:14:15 We're here again
00:14:19 in another Tuk.
00:14:20 I'll be playing for you
00:14:22 some beautiful Tuk-Tuks.
00:14:24 Here it is, my friends.
00:14:27 Listen to the Tuk-Tuk
00:14:29 that I'm going to play for you.
00:14:30 Good afternoon, everyone.
00:14:32 We're here again at this time.
00:14:34 It's time for me to listen to your problems
00:14:37 and give you some advice.
00:14:39 The first thing I read
00:14:41 was what Myra wrote.
00:14:43 Myra, what I can tell you is
00:14:45 that you should wait for your patience.
00:14:48 It's only natural.
00:14:49 Boyfriends will fight.
00:14:51 And if there's a chance for a breakup,
00:14:55 just let it be.
00:14:57 Endure it.
00:14:58 God knows everything.
00:15:01 God will give us.
00:15:03 In our lives,
00:15:05 we'll have light,
00:15:07 we'll have problems.
00:15:09 That's all.
00:15:10 So, wait for your patience.
00:15:13 Your problems are your brothers.
00:15:17 I'll be right back.
00:15:19 [footsteps]
00:15:21 [music]
00:15:48 Hello?
00:15:49 Hello?
00:15:50 My--
00:15:51 [clears throat]
00:15:52 Good morning, my friends.
00:15:58 I'm your host,
00:16:01 Susan Cevillo.
00:16:03 I'm here to tell you--
00:16:05 [knocking]
00:16:07 Sorry, sorry.
00:16:11 I didn't know there was someone here.
00:16:13 I'm sorry.
00:16:14 [music]
00:16:16 This is Manolo, Nolo, Nolo, Nolo, Nolo Fabis!
00:16:36 Dear Ate Helen,
00:16:42 I wrote to you because--
00:16:45 Why didn't you take it seriously?
00:16:47 Huh?
00:16:50 Okay, let's say it's a news.
00:16:53 You're the one who reports.
00:16:55 Here.
00:16:58 Go ahead.
00:17:01 Why?
00:17:03 You can't do it?
00:17:05 I can.
00:17:08 I can.
00:17:09 [clears throat]
00:17:11 In international news,
00:17:13 the war between Iraq and Iran is still going on
00:17:15 and the price of crude oil is rising rapidly.
00:17:19 Many are saying that before the end of the year,
00:17:21 it will reach five pesos per liter.
00:17:24 This is Susan Cevillo for "Oras o Oras na Balita Ngayon."
00:17:28 That's great!
00:17:30 I told you, I've only seen you before.
00:17:33 You're different.
00:17:34 We've met before, right?
00:17:39 Yes.
00:17:40 I'm Roy.
00:17:43 How's Susan?
00:17:47 She's good.
00:17:51 You know, you're just too serious.
00:17:53 Thank you.
00:17:56 I'm just embarrassed.
00:17:58 Roy, didn't Brother Cesar say that I have a promise?
00:18:02 You're kidding. He told me.
00:18:04 Where?
00:18:06 Of course, we're on a date.
00:18:09 You're still thinking about work.
00:18:11 Roy, please excuse me.
00:18:14 You know, since I found out that I can do it,
00:18:18 I've been really persistent in being a newscaster.
00:18:22 And I want to be not just on the radio, but also on TV.
00:18:25 Okay, I'm already there.
00:18:27 But what if we already have a family?
00:18:29 Do you still want to focus on work?
00:18:32 Why?
00:18:35 Are you angry that I'll be doing both work and family?
00:18:38 Maybe you'll stop me from being a reporter later.
00:18:43 Are you serious?
00:18:45 You know, I can't stop your ambition.
00:18:52 Even if it's a fire, a firework, or a storm.
00:18:55 Why?
00:18:56 Who am I to you?
00:18:57 You know, my siblings are studying.
00:19:03 That's why I'm so persistent.
00:19:05 Is that the only reason?
00:19:08 No.
00:19:10 I admit it.
00:19:11 Because I really want to be successful.
00:19:14 Is that bad?
00:19:16 No.
00:19:18 Your ambition in life is already a part of your personality.
00:19:23 It's part of the Susan that I met and learned to love.
00:19:31 But if we're already married,
00:19:33 I hope you'll give importance to our family.
00:19:37 Wait a minute.
00:19:40 How did we get to this?
00:19:43 Okay, I'll think about it.
00:19:44 You're proposing to me.
00:19:45 Okay.
00:19:47 While it's hard to be a husband here,
00:19:49 give me a gift first.
00:19:52 Okay.
00:19:53 Susan, I love you so much.
00:20:14 Will you be my wife forever?
00:20:19 Yes.
00:20:20 The relationship between Susan and Paul was also brought back to the right track.
00:20:39 At the same time, Susan became more passionate about her profession.
00:20:44 And from being a reporter on the radio, she entered the profession of a reporter on television.
00:20:50 I'm at the marigrina now, reporting live.
00:21:04 And the iron you see flying is the roof of the house of the residents here.
00:21:13 At this time, the rescue teams are on their way.
00:21:16 But it seems like they'll be late because of the hard path and high water.
00:21:22 They'll be here soon to help the residents.
00:21:37 Susan was able to make a name for herself.
00:21:42 She was known for the rescue of typhoons and other disasters.
00:21:46 But because of her dedication to her job,
00:21:49 Susan gradually became distant from her son and husband.
00:21:53 Okay, that's enough. Turn off the TV.
00:21:59 Go to sleep. You have classes tomorrow.
00:22:01 Grandma, I don't want to sleep yet.
00:22:05 Mommy promised that she'll be home early.
00:22:08 We're still coloring the book.
00:22:11 Kay, my child,
00:22:15 Mommy is the one I talked to on the phone just now.
00:22:19 Oh, you see? She promised.
00:22:24 Kay, I'm sorry.
00:22:31 Your mommy told me that she'll be home late tonight.
00:22:35 Oh, that's her promise.
00:22:40 Kay, my child, Mommy is not doing it on purpose.
00:22:44 It's a job.
00:22:46 Mommy's job is so hard.
00:22:50 She's always stealing from me.
00:22:53 She always breaks her promise.
00:22:56 Kay, don't say that.
00:22:58 Your mommy's job is important. She helps a lot of people.
00:23:02 I'll just wait for Mommy. I'll wait for her to come home.
00:23:06 I know.
00:23:09 Why don't you ask your daddy to join you in coloring the book?
00:23:14 Whatever we can't finish, you'll help Mommy tomorrow.
00:23:18 Is that okay with you?
00:23:19 Okay.
00:23:21 Okay.
00:23:23 Mommy's here.
00:23:25 [TV playing]
00:23:28 I thought you were going to turn off the TV so that your daddy can help you coloring.
00:23:37 I'll just say goodnight to Mommy.
00:23:41 Goodnight, Mommy.
00:23:42 If you don't keep your promise, we won't be able to finish the book.
00:23:48 Okay, let's go, Kay.
00:23:50 Let's go.
00:23:52 Let's color the book.
00:23:53 Come on.
00:23:55 [TV playing]
00:23:57 Goodnight, Mommy.
00:23:59 [TV playing]
00:24:02 Hurry up so that we can go home.
00:24:05 Just a little bit faster.
00:24:08 Hi, Ms. Elaine.
00:24:09 Thank you for covering my interview even though it was the last minute.
00:24:13 I thought I wouldn't be able to send anything.
00:24:15 No problem.
00:24:16 Your husband is angry, right?
00:24:18 I know that this job is hard for a family member.
00:24:22 No, there's no problem.
00:24:24 But your son is still a baby, right?
00:24:26 Kay is already seven.
00:24:29 He's a bit old and he has a grandmother.
00:24:31 And his grandmother is my lucky one because she's good and she still loves my son.
00:24:35 That's good.
00:24:37 I was thinking that you should be the one to send the book to the Basilan.
00:24:40 Isn't that the press conference of Abu Sabaya?
00:24:43 That's a good assignment.
00:24:46 But there's a big possibility that this assignment will be a failure.
00:24:50 We don't know what they're really thinking.
00:24:53 That's why I'm planning to assign it to someone who is single.
00:24:57 Wait, Ms. Elaine.
00:24:59 I think that if you'll send me there,
00:25:02 it will be a good coverage of that assignment.
00:25:05 I like your attitude, Susan.
00:25:07 You'll be far from this industry.
00:25:10 Alright then, the assignment is yours.
00:25:12 Is it really mine?
00:25:13 You'll send me?
00:25:14 Thank you, Ms. Elaine.
00:25:17 [music]
00:25:21 This is so good, son.
00:25:22 [music]
00:25:37 You didn't keep your promise to the child.
00:25:39 Roy, you know my schedule.
00:25:43 It's always changing.
00:25:46 Then don't keep your promise.
00:25:47 You always put your work first.
00:25:51 I'm fine with it because I'm used to it.
00:25:53 But your son...
00:25:54 Don't make me feel guilty.
00:26:00 You're not feeling guilty.
00:26:01 What do you mean?
00:26:04 Do you think that I won't get hurt if I don't keep my promise to K?
00:26:10 If that's the case, then do something.
00:26:12 What do you want me to do?
00:26:14 Resign?
00:26:15 Find another job?
00:26:17 I want you to be with this family.
00:26:20 Not your growing up son who only watches TV.
00:26:24 If that's the case,
00:26:26 then it's better if we just leave.
00:26:30 Are you scaring me?
00:26:35 I'm not scaring you.
00:26:36 I'm just telling the truth.
00:26:39 I know you want to succeed, Susan.
00:26:43 But is it enough if your family is replaced?
00:26:45 Ouch!
00:27:03 You're pulling my hair.
00:27:05 You're turning it.
00:27:07 Don't turn it.
00:27:08 You're taking too long.
00:27:11 Yaya is so smart.
00:27:13 Yaya, you did this.
00:27:19 Mommy, we're going to color the book again, right?
00:27:32 You said you're going home early today.
00:27:40 Because
00:27:41 Mommy has an assignment.
00:27:45 This is very important.
00:27:48 But she's far away in Basilan.
00:27:51 Mommy will need to stay overnight.
00:27:55 But after I stay overnight,
00:27:57 when I come back,
00:27:58 I promise you that I'll leave.
00:28:01 I'll really leave.
00:28:02 Why is that?
00:28:04 You always break your promise.
00:28:06 Why is it that other mommies are not like that?
00:28:09 I hope you won't be my mommy.
00:28:12 Kay?
00:28:14 Kay?
00:28:16 Kay?
00:28:19 Kay?
00:28:21 Kay?

00:29:36 It looks like it's going to rain heavily.
00:29:42 How can we give up?
00:29:46 It's hard.
00:29:48 The bad luck continues when I leave.
00:29:50 You mean, Susan, you left for this assignment
00:29:56 that you're going to be with your son's lover?
00:29:59 When my husband comes,
00:30:01 I still don't want to talk to him.
00:30:04 You know, in our job,
00:30:06 wherever we go,
00:30:09 we don't know what will happen.
00:30:12 Maybe you're here now, but tomorrow...
00:30:16 Bro, don't be scared. I'm already scared here.
00:30:21 No, I just want to say
00:30:23 I'm already mad that when I go to this kind of assignment,
00:30:29 I'm making sure that my family and I will be well-informed.
00:30:33 Yes, Susan.
00:30:35 Work is easy to replace, but family is not.
00:30:40 Let's continue. We're almost there.
00:30:44 [thunder rumbling]
00:30:48 [thunder rumbling]
00:30:55 [car engine rumbling]
00:30:57 It's simple what we're asking for.
00:31:10 Two hundred bags of rice in exchange for the life of the hostages.
00:31:13 The hostages will be happy if you give them what we want.
00:31:18 Abu Sabaya, I'm standing in front of you.
00:31:23 I promise you that I will give you whatever you ask for.
00:31:26 Hello? Is this Kaya Anne?
00:31:49 This is Kay.
00:31:52 Kay, my child.
00:31:53 Please, don't be mad at Mommy.
00:31:57 I promise you that when I come back,
00:32:02 we will be out of town.
00:32:05 The whole family will be there.
00:32:06 It's true.
00:32:07 Don't be mad at Mommy.
00:32:10 Do you love Mommy again?
00:32:12 No, you're going to break your promise again.
00:32:15 You don't love me, so I don't love you either.
00:32:19 I love you, love.
00:32:20 Kay?
00:32:25 Hello?
00:32:26 Hello, Kay? Hello?
00:32:28 Hello? Hello?
00:32:30 No!
00:32:32 Listen to me.
00:32:34 If you don't give us what we want,
00:32:37 none of you will be able to go home.
00:32:38 Are you sure?
00:32:41 Even the hostages?
00:32:43 Yes, you're right, Ms. Enriquez.
00:32:46 No one will be able to go home.
00:32:47 No one will be able to go home.
00:32:48 Hurry.
00:32:52 Bring that over there.
00:32:53 Go, go, go.
00:32:55 Go, go, go.
00:32:56 I'm really worried.
00:33:05 Fusa didn't do anything that will make us not know her condition.
00:33:10 And until now, she's not calling.
00:33:16 Maybe she's just busy.
00:33:17 She'll call later.
00:33:19 Oh, why isn't Susan reporting the news break?
00:33:29 Roy!
00:33:31 What if she's not at the station?
00:33:33 Where is she?
00:33:35 What if she's not at the station?
00:33:36 Where is she?
00:34:01 [music]
00:34:05 Upon hearing the news that Susan has arrived at the remote mountain of Basilan
00:34:12 to inform the rebel group that she's called Abu Sayang.
00:34:16 But she didn't think that they would be part of the group
00:34:20 to use the funds for their mission.
00:34:23 I'm begging you.
00:34:25 I'm begging you.
00:34:26 Let us go.
00:34:29 I already told you what I want to happen.
00:34:31 I just want you to have your government.
00:34:34 We have a lot of families.
00:34:37 I have a daughter, a daughter, and a son.
00:34:40 I want to go home.
00:34:41 You can't.
00:34:43 Because while you're all here,
00:34:44 Era will do everything I want.
00:34:46 I can't.
00:34:49 We're always lost.
00:34:54 I feel sorry for you.
00:34:57 I feel sorry for you.
00:34:59 I feel sorry for you.
00:35:03 Come on.
00:35:04 Bring all of them.
00:35:05 I feel sorry for you.
00:35:08 Come on.
00:35:09 Let's go.
00:35:10 I feel sorry for you.
00:35:14 Let's go.
00:35:17 Let's go.

00:35:56 Don't you have any news about her?
00:36:00 [sobbing]
00:36:02 I don't have any news yet.
00:36:08 I tried calling her cellphone,
00:36:12 but there's no signal from where she went.
00:36:16 I miss you so much.
00:36:21 I miss you.
00:36:22 I don't know what happened to my son.
00:36:29 Kay, why are you crying?
00:36:31 I got mad at Mommy yesterday.
00:36:35 She didn't come home that day.
00:36:40 Why did she leave me?
00:36:45 Daddy, where's Mommy?
00:36:48 Mommy loves you, Kay.
00:36:58 Mommy will come back.
00:37:00 Mommy will come back.
00:37:04 I don't want to be with Mommy.
00:37:12 I don't want to see her.
00:37:15 I don't want to see her.
00:37:18 I feel sorry for her.
00:37:21 Let me live, please.

00:38:00 Susan's life became a never-ending nightmare.
00:38:06 And every day that passed,
00:38:09 Susan's desire to be with her husband and son grew stronger.
00:38:17 What's that?
00:38:20 What's that for?
00:38:21 Hey, watch what you say to us.
00:38:25 Answer me first. What's that for?
00:38:27 I'm sorry, Abu Sabaya.
00:38:30 Susan is just reminding her son in Manila.
00:38:33 She's too brave. She knows how to answer.
00:38:37 Abu, she won't go back.
00:38:38 Susan,
00:38:41 be quiet if you want to prolong your life.
00:38:46 Abu Sabaya,
00:38:48 we'll walk your requests.
00:38:53 That's good. And I hope it's done soon.
00:38:55 Erap should be talking to us.
00:38:58 If not, we'll give you a headshot.

00:39:23 These rebels are not joking.
00:39:34 They don't have a death penalty, but they're fighting for it.
00:39:38 How are we going to get out of here?
00:39:41 Brother Noly,
00:39:46 can you let me talk to Abu Sabaya?
00:39:51 Maybe he'll listen to me.
00:39:56 Just be quiet, Susan.
00:39:59 The rebels are noticing you.
00:40:02 I don't know what to do with you.
00:40:04 Oh, God.
00:40:06 I haven't stopped crying since last night.
00:40:11 I prayed a lot.
00:40:15 If God left us,
00:40:16 I would have been looking for a way out.
00:40:18 Just pray to God.
00:40:21 He won't leave you.
00:40:23 Oh, my son.

00:41:53 If the rebels catch us, they'll definitely catch us.
00:41:58 What? Do you believe they'll let us go?
00:42:01 Susan, come with us.
00:42:05 This is the only way you can see your children.
00:42:09 [Sighs]
00:42:10 [Indistinct shouting]
00:42:13 Hey! Hey! Hey!
00:42:21 All the women, get out!
00:42:23 We'll leave the women.
00:42:26 We'll leave you.
00:42:29 No, we won't go with you. We'll stay here.
00:42:32 What's with your stubborn heads?
00:42:34 Are you going to follow us or not?
00:42:36 Stop it! Stop it! Don't separate us from our comrades.
00:42:39 What's that? What's that?
00:42:40 If they don't want to be separated, let them be.
00:42:44 They'll be broken at the same time.
00:42:47 Let's go.

00:43:18 As a fulfillment of our government's request, I'll be sending home hostages.

00:43:59 Wait. Aren't you coming with me?
00:44:02 No, you'll be left behind.
00:44:04 I don't want to be left behind. I'm not going to go with them.
00:44:07 I need my son.
00:44:09 I feel like I'm being left behind.
00:44:11 My children are still young.
00:44:13 I don't want to be left behind.
00:44:16 I don't want to be left behind.
00:44:19 Hold her.
00:44:20 I need my son.

00:47:26 Daddy, why is Mommy not home yet?
00:47:31 Son, maybe Mommy is just busy with work.
00:47:37 Maybe she doesn't want to go home because she doesn't love me anymore.
00:47:43 That's not true, son.
00:47:47 Mommy loves you so much.

00:49:29 Let's not go out so often so we can eat properly.

00:49:46 Please, God.

00:50:17 Thank you, Brother Noly.
00:50:38 I will never forget this.
00:50:42 Don't think about it, Susan.
00:50:44 You know, this is what you should do.
00:50:47 When you arrive in Manila, go to the church and thank God.
00:50:53 Because this is our second life.
00:50:56 And promise yourself that you will never return to this place.

00:52:03 Mommy, what happened to you?
00:52:07 Why did you disappear for so long?
00:52:10 I was looking for you on TV but you were not there.
00:52:14 I was so scared.
00:52:16 Don't do that again.
00:52:19 Forgive me, son.
00:52:22 I'm so sorry.
00:52:24 Don't worry.
00:52:26 Next time, you can always count on me that you will never lose me again.
00:52:32 Okay?
00:52:33 So, yes.
00:52:34 Mom, thank you for coming here.
00:52:45 Wait, let's go inside.
00:52:50 Wait, wait.
00:52:51 Why?
00:52:53 Will you come with me?
00:52:54 Now?
00:52:55 Yes, now.
00:52:56 Where are you going?
00:52:57 I'm going to thank someone.

00:54:24 It can be considered that the role of Karo Ben is over as a messenger to the people of Abu Sayyaf.
00:54:30 The ball is now in the hands of the government on how they can fulfill the wishes of Abu Sayyaf
00:54:35 in exchange for the freedom of the people of this province.
00:54:39 From Isabela Basilan, this is Susan Enriquez reporting.
00:54:43 Mom, were you afraid?
00:54:46 Yes, I was afraid.
00:54:48 You? You are very brave.
00:54:52 I was not afraid for myself.
00:54:56 I was afraid that if something happens to me,
00:54:59 I will not be able to fulfill my promise to you that I will come back.
00:55:02 Okay?
00:55:05 Do you promise me, Mommy?
00:55:06 Yes, I promise.
00:55:08 Do you want me to stop being a reporter?
00:55:12 Yes, Mommy.
00:55:14 My teacher said that your work is important.
00:55:18 That's why I also like your work and I am proud of you.
00:55:27 You know where I am most proud?
00:55:29 It's with you.
00:55:33 Because for me, you are the most important and you are my true success.
00:55:41 I love you, my child.
00:55:45 Mommy loves you so much.
00:55:49 I love you so much.
00:55:51 Forever.
00:55:53 Susan's bravery also served as a way for her to fully understand the importance of her family.
00:56:00 Susan, your experience in the mountains, in the mountains of Basilan,
00:56:04 you will never forget the experience, right?
00:56:09 At that time, you were there, what was the feeling like?
00:56:12 It's like, it's like you are blaming yourself.
00:56:14 You did that, why did I come here? Why did I cover this?
00:56:19 It's like all kinds of blame were on you at that time because you didn't know what will happen in your life.
00:56:25 Do you have another, what is it, knockover?
00:56:28 Leaders of terrorists.
00:56:32 Who in particular?
00:56:34 Bin Laden.
00:56:35 Bin Laden?
00:56:36 And what will you ask Bin Laden?
00:56:38 I want to ask him, why are you, why are you involved with the civilians?
00:56:42 Will you let your son be a reporter there like you?
00:56:47 Whatever his decision will be, whatever job or course he wants to take, I will let him, I will support him all the way.
00:56:54 You are inspired by many, especially by students, right?
00:56:58 What can you advise them?
00:57:00 You know, I'm the kind of person who doesn't complain, as long as I was given a job,
00:57:06 I will do everything I can to make the story better, I will give what they expect, I really do.
00:57:12 If you need to sleep for two days, three days, I will do that while the job is still there and you need to go to your job.
00:57:19 What else do you want to achieve now that you are well-known in the whole country?
00:57:24 Like you, Tita Mel.
00:57:26 No, you have a new show, right?
00:57:28 Yes, that's it.
00:57:30 You are that famous now.

00:57:34 What is the format? Tell us.
00:57:36 It's like giving importance and power to the masses of women.

00:57:50 Thank you, Tita Mel.
00:57:52 And thank you very much for giving me a chance to use my life.
00:57:58 I hope that the story of my life will be an inspiration to those who are losing hope in life.
00:58:04 The old woman who used to sell rice in the market has come a long way.
00:58:11 Her simple dream is to finish her college and work in a factory.
00:58:17 Now, Susan is one of the TV reporters who is known and respected.
00:58:23 Not only by her colleagues in GMA, like me, but also by other media personalities.
00:58:31 Above all, Susan proved that no matter how hard it is,
00:58:37 to fulfill our dreams in life, through perseverance, faith in God,
00:58:44 and trust in ourselves and the support of our family,
00:58:48 we will also achieve the most precious victory.
