00:00Hi, Abby! Welcome to Expressly For You!
00:04How are you?
00:05I'm good.
00:06Why are you good?
00:08Because I'm here in Showtime.
00:10Yes!
00:11I'm happy here.
00:13Why is Abby alone?
00:15She has someone with her.
00:17She's with her mother, Jacqueline.
00:21Let's call her.
00:22Hello, Mommy!
00:24Hi!
00:25Hi, Mommy! Welcome to Showtime!
00:27Hi, Mommy Jacqueline!
00:30How are you?
00:31I'm good.
00:32There you go.
00:33Have a seat, Mommy.
00:34Have a seat, Mommy.
00:35Maybe she doesn't want to sit next to us.
00:36Have a seat.
00:37We'll blow-dry your hair first.
00:38No, she won't.
00:39Call MC.
00:40We'll blow-dry her hair.
00:41Mommy, do you want us to blow-dry your hair like her?
00:42Jackie's hair is messy.
00:43We have a good hairstylist here, MC.
00:47There you go.
00:48How are you?
00:50I'm good.
00:51Good.
00:52Abby, what do you do for a living?
00:54I work from home as an admin assistant.
00:58Admin assistant?
01:00Yes, in a BPO company.
01:02Oh, what do you do?
01:04BPO is a call center.
01:06Oh, call center.
01:07Yes, something like that.
01:08Oh, so you're always there?
01:10No, I'm a morning shift and I have an Australian account.
01:13Normal days.
01:15Do you have to have an Australian account?
01:17Do you have to have an Australian accent?
01:19No, it's not required.
01:21Lower your Australian accent.
01:23What's the Australian accent?
01:26Sup?
01:28That's Australian?
01:29Hawaii, Hawaii.
01:31Can I help you?
01:32Can I help you?
01:33Oh, that's how they are?
01:34Hawaii, Hawaii.
01:36It's been a long time.
01:38I'm sorry.
01:40Maybe Abby knows how to speak in Hawaiian.
01:42Do you have an Australian accent?
01:43No, I don't have an Australian accent.
01:47I only speak proper English.
01:49Only proper English.
01:51Is Abby the type of girl who's shy?
01:53No.
01:54What type of girl is Abby?
01:57Madal-dal.
02:00Are you a go-getter?
02:01Not so.
02:03But you're careful?
02:04Yes, I'm careful.
02:05You don't go out of your way?
02:06Sometimes, I go out of my way.
02:10When it comes to love, do you go out of your way?
02:14Sometimes.
02:15I'm open-minded.
02:18Abby is the type of person who goes to people who have problems.
02:26Do you want to open up?
02:28Do you know why?
02:29Why?
02:30Because her name is Abby.
02:31Yes.
02:32Her last name is Your Crying Shoulder.
02:34Abby, Your Crying Shoulder.
02:40Her last name is so long.
02:42Her last name is so long.
02:43It's so long.
02:45Are you proud?
02:46I'm proud.
02:47I'm smiling inside.
02:48Why didn't you think of that?
02:49I thought of that.
02:50Kim thought of that.
02:51That's great.
02:52And you taught her.
02:53Yes.
02:54She's very relatable and dependable.
02:57Dependable.
02:58Her last name is There For You.
03:00Abby, There For You.
03:03Abby, There For You.
03:05You have a lot of entries, Kim.
03:06That's great.
03:07No, it's just up to you.
03:08No, there's a lot more.
03:09Chang, we don't have an album yet.
03:11Maybe you have one, Chang.
03:12I don't have one yet.
03:13No, her last name is Beautiful Girl.
03:18How?
03:19Abby, Beautiful Girl.
03:21Oh.
03:23Abby, There For You is okay.
03:26But you need to do it like, Abby, Beautiful.
03:28So that it's funny.
03:30I think she's really hardworking.
03:32Yes.
03:33Because, Abby Gabi.
03:37You're hardworking, right?
03:38Yes.
03:39I think Abby is fond of nature.
03:41Really?
03:44No.
03:45Let's talk about it later.
03:48Let's talk about it.
03:49That's why Abby's heart pounded.
03:51Yes.
03:52High school.
03:53High school?
03:54Yes.
03:55Is that like first love?
03:57Not so.
03:58But she's the first ever legal boyfriend.
04:02First legal?
04:03Yes.
04:04Introduced to her parents.
04:05Yes.
04:06Mommy agreed?
04:07You seem to look at her differently.
04:08That's why.
04:09Tita Jacqueline answered.
04:10At first, I didn't agree because she's still young.
04:13She's still a kid.
04:14How many years has Abby been in this relationship?
04:18For each year, 15.
04:2015 years old.
04:21What did you tell Abby?
04:23When you didn't agree, how did you express it to Abby?
04:26At that time, I really didn't know.
04:29But when I found out, I talked to her.
04:33How did you find out?
04:34Because at that time, she came home late.
04:37She came home late?
04:38Yes.
04:39Because when she came home from school, she went straight home.
04:42So when she came home late, I was surprised why she wasn't home yet.
04:47At that time, the school was near our house.
04:51So I went to her house.
04:54I was not at school.
04:57You didn't go to school?
04:58No.
04:59I had a date after class.
05:03But I told her that I have intramurals at school.
05:07And when you got there, you didn't have intramurals?
05:09No.
05:10Oh my God.
05:11Where did you go?
05:12I went to Palosebo.
05:15Palosebo?
05:16So what did you tell her?
05:18You called Abby at that time?
05:20Yes.
05:21At that time, she wasn't at school.
05:24When she came home, I talked to her at home.
05:27So you really didn't look for her at school?
05:30No.
05:31You didn't see her with holding hands?
05:33No.
05:34No, I didn't see her.
05:37So when you got home, what did you tell Abby?
05:41I told her that I went out to eat somewhere near the school.
05:46And she got angry because I didn't say goodbye.
05:50Of course.
05:51Yes.
05:52But even if I say goodbye to her, she won't let me go.
05:56Will you let me go if you say goodbye?
05:58No.
05:59No.
06:01What will you do if she won't let you go?
06:04What will you do?
06:06I won't go.
06:07Yes.
06:08Because I'm a nuisance.
06:10Why did you choose to go on a date at that time?
06:14At that time, she was a nuisance.
06:15You were a nuisance to your mom, right?
06:17At that time, I was already stressed at school.
06:21And my mom is a bit strict.
06:24So when I need to rest at home, I go out to eat.
06:29Yes.
06:30And maybe you also have a crush?
06:32That too.
06:33But it was just us at that time.
06:36Boyfriend.
06:38You already answered that.
06:40That's why you went on a date.
06:42Was it a monstery?
06:44No.
06:45We just went out.
06:46Just an ordinary day.
06:48Did you have a boyfriend when you were in high school?
06:51Just a puppy.
06:52He's just a puppy.
06:54What's a puppy love?
06:56He's just a puppy.
06:58Where did the puppy go?
07:00I don't know.
07:01They said that puppy love is from 7am to 4pm.
07:07When you're in school.
07:08When you're dismissal.
07:09When you're dismissal, you're not together anymore.
07:11When you're dismissal, you're together.
07:13Is it the same for you, Abby?
07:14No.
07:15Or is it really serious?
07:16It's been 4 years.
07:17How did you say that it's serious and you really like him?
07:21At first, it's not totally serious.
07:24Because what happened to us is,
07:27he's an ex-classmate of ours.
07:29He's in our circle of friends.
07:31Ah, okay.
07:33When they got divorced,
07:35he came to me for comfort.
07:39And then,
07:41at that time,
07:43we were just best friends.
07:45Because at that time,
07:46I also had feelings for him.
07:48Other people.
07:49You were challenging other people?
07:50No, I had feelings for other people.
07:52Ah, you had feelings.
07:53Yes.
07:54Until we understood each other.
07:56Then it developed.
07:58That's how it is.
08:00In our first month,
08:02we decided not to separate.
08:03Because I thought he still loved
08:05his ex-classmate of ours.
08:07Because we were in the same section.
08:09Did your mom know that the situation was like that?
08:12At first, she didn't.
08:14Because she's the type of person
08:17who's really secretive.
08:20So when I found out,
08:22I got angry.
08:23I talked to her.
08:25I said, you're still young.
08:26I said, you know what's right and wrong.
08:29Maybe it's because I'm too protective of him.
08:33Because he's just a son.
08:34Ah, he's just a son.
08:36And he's a girl.
08:37And his dad is not abroad.
08:40That's why I'm so strict with him.
08:43How did you know that he knows what's right and wrong?
08:47That's a good question.
08:48No, right?
08:49What's your opinion?
08:50What's right and wrong?
08:51No, in terms of studies,
08:54he's totally focused on his studies.
08:57He has priorities.
08:59That's clear.
09:00But I still don't like him.
09:02Because he's still young.
09:03Because I'm also scared.
09:06So that's the only reason why you don't like him.
09:08Because he's still young.
09:09Not because he met a guy
09:10and you saw something wrong with him.
09:12No, that's not it.
09:13No?
09:14But you met him.
09:15Yes, I met him.
09:16Abby's ex.
09:17Abby introduced him to you.
09:18Mommy, this is my boyfriend.
09:21At that time, no.
09:22When I got home,
09:23I found out that it was really them.
09:26Because maybe,
09:27he's also scared.
09:29Mommy, what's your first impression of Abby's ex?
09:32My first impression of his ex,
09:35he's kind.
09:36He's kind.
09:37I don't have anything to say.
09:38What's your second impression?
09:39Oh, there's a second?
09:41Because the first impression is the first impression.
09:43He seems to be hardworking at home.
09:46He's good at housework.
09:48Why is Abby laughing?
09:50Because it's true.
09:51It's true?
09:52Yes.
09:53So when Mommy saw the good side of your ex,
09:56when did he totally accept you?
09:59He totally accepted us
10:01almost two years ago.
10:04After two years?
10:05Yes, he totally accepted us.
10:08What was the effort that your ex made
10:10that Mommy appreciated?
10:12He's always at home.
10:14Every time we get home,
10:15he'll go to our house.
10:16It's either we'll have a snack together
10:18with Mommy
10:19since Papa is abroad.
10:22We're just the two of us at home.
10:23So, that's it.
10:24You three?
10:25Effort.
10:26Yes, effort.
10:27He's really an effort, Mommy.
10:29He's really pursuing you, Mommy.
10:31He's also pursuing your ex, Mommy.
10:33Abby, can I ask
10:35how long have you been together?
10:37Eight years and five months.
10:39Eight years!
10:40That's so long!
10:41Oh, that's long.
10:43What happened?
10:44What happened?
10:46So what happened?
10:47Why?
10:48Because it's okay.
10:49Yes, it's perfect.
10:50After two years,
10:51Mommy accepted you.
10:52He went to your house.
10:53You had a snack together.
10:54It's like you had an additional child.
10:57A boy.
10:58You don't have a son.
10:59A boy.
11:00So what happened?
11:01Why did you suddenly change?
11:02What happened is
11:04in our eight-year relationship,
11:07we broke up five times.
11:09Oh!
11:10Why?
11:11First,
11:12the reason was
11:16I was too jealous of him.
11:20Then,
11:21besides that,
11:23there's also a factor
11:25because there are people who are linked.
11:28I also noticed that.
11:30Who are you linked to?
11:31To him.
11:32To you.
11:33You have a lot of crushes.
11:35Yes.
11:36In school?
11:37In school.
11:38So you're jealous?
11:39Yes.
11:40So there's also a justification
11:42for his jealousy.
11:43But I was full at that time.
11:46So we broke up.
11:48He chased me to win back.
11:50The highlight of that is
11:54since I was studying in FEU
11:56and he was studying in UE,
11:59the jeep I was riding
12:01was on its way home.
12:03He saw me riding it.
12:04Then, in Bustillos
12:06until Arellano,
12:08he chased the jeep
12:09so that he could ride the jeep
12:11that he was riding.
12:12He really did it.
12:13That's sexy.
12:14Meet your garden.
12:16Meet your garden.
12:18How long was it?
12:20Bustillos?
12:21How long was it?
12:22It was like
12:24from the entrance
12:26to the PBB house.
12:28It was about 675 meters.
12:30From the PBB?
12:31So you really saw him
12:33running and chasing the jeep?
12:35It was still raining.
12:36It was still raining?
12:37You didn't stop the jeep?
12:38You didn't tell the driver?
12:39When I was at Arellano,
12:40I felt sorry for him
12:41so I yelled at the driver
12:44to stop the car!
12:46Stop the car!
12:48You hugged each other.
12:50When Guy was running like that,
12:52what did you feel?
12:54I was sad.
12:56You were sad?
12:57Yes.
12:58Because I was making it hard for him.
13:00So you were trying to make it hard
13:02before telling the driver
13:04to stop.
13:06Like that.
13:08My hair was like that.
13:10No!
13:12Do it again, Jackie.
13:14You were chasing the jeep.
13:22Tina Turner!
13:24I heard that from Sean.
13:28But you know,
13:30when it comes to love,
13:32there are things we can do
13:34to make it work.
13:36You can do it
13:39with someone you love.
13:41There's a saying in Bisaya,
13:43love is like a bubblegum
13:45if you stick to it.
13:47Love is like a bubblegum
13:49if you stick to it.
13:51What does that mean?
13:53Love is like a bubblegum
13:55if you stick to it.
13:57You don't know how to remove it.
13:59There's a saying,
14:01just do it with a bubblegum.
14:03That's different.
14:05I just heard that.
14:08You stick to it while it's running.
14:10Then you test it
14:12until when
14:14and how far
14:16its determination to chase you will go.
14:18But let's admit,
14:20we all went through that.
14:22Young love.
14:24It's so dramatic.
14:26It's like this is the end of the world.
14:28You broke up.
14:30You don't want to live anymore.
14:32You don't want to go to college.
14:34You don't want to work.
14:36When you were young and crazy.
14:38Yes.
14:40But it's so nice to remember.
14:42What happened?
14:44She got in the jeep.
14:46What did you say?
14:48I didn't open up
14:50because I didn't know
14:52I might get mad at her
14:54because she did that.
14:56Did the passengers beat you up?
14:58No.
15:00They were quiet.
15:02Cute.
15:05What did your ex say?
15:07Did he apologize?
15:09Did he tell you to go back to him?
15:11He apologized
15:13and asked me if we can be together again.
15:15What did you say?
15:17I said I'll think about it.
15:19She's really a girl.
15:21When we got home,
15:23since we were at the same location,
15:25we agreed.
15:27She agreed.
15:29That was your first breakup.
15:31That was your first?
15:33What was the other one?
15:35The second one
15:37was her problem.
15:39She was the one who got linked.
15:41I didn't know
15:43it was related to our first breakup.
15:45I was the one who chased her.
15:47In the jeep?
15:49No.
15:51In the bus?
15:53No.
15:55Through arts.
15:57I printed our pictures together.
15:59I made a lot of letters.
16:02It was a collage.
16:04I printed our pictures
16:06in a cute size.
16:08I printed it
16:10and gave it to her.
16:12You went back and forth.
16:14Yes.
16:16We went back and forth.
16:18How long did it take you
16:20before your third breakup?
16:22Two years apart.
16:24It was our third breakup.
16:26What happened in the third?
16:28In the third,
16:31I was pressured.
16:33It was way back
16:35in 2021.
16:37It happened
16:39in December 2020.
16:41My father passed away.
16:43At that time,
16:45I was really down.
16:47It was just the three of us.
16:49My father passed away.
16:51All of the breadwinners
16:53went to me.
16:57At that time,
16:59I thought it was right
17:01to have a family
17:03before starting a career.
17:05Since I grew up
17:07with my grandparents,
17:09I wanted them to be with me
17:11when I have a child.
17:13I wanted my child to grow up with them.
17:15However, my father passed away.
17:17What happened was
17:19I was pressured
17:21to settle down.
17:23Did you know
17:25that Abby was thinking
17:28the same thing?
17:30At first,
17:32I didn't think
17:34that Abby was thinking
17:36the same thing.
17:38She doesn't like to talk
17:40about her problems
17:42until she can.
17:44Abby,
17:46looking back now,
17:48do you think it would have been better
17:50if you told your aunt
17:52back then?
17:54Yes.
17:56Remember that.
17:58Always look back.
18:00Always look back.
18:02Let's move on to the major break-up.
18:04What was the major break-up?
18:06There were four of them.
18:08At that time,
18:10I gave up.
18:12What happened?
18:14It became a routine for us.
18:16All the fights we had
18:18before,
18:20even the past issues,
18:22were taken care of.
18:25We didn't talk about it.
18:27For example,
18:29now that she has work,
18:31she would work overtime
18:33until 10 or 11.
18:35We would talk about the time
18:37when I haven't slept yet.
18:39There was a time
18:41when we would just fight.
18:43The next day,
18:45we wouldn't talk about it anymore.
18:47You were like a dead man.
18:49You would just sit there
18:51and not talk about it.
18:54It piled up.
18:56Did you bring it up again?
18:58You were pressuring her
19:00to settle down.
19:02I didn't bring it up again.
19:04Is that rare
19:06to have multiple break-ups?
19:10I want to know
19:12if just one break-up
19:14is enough
19:16or if you will give more?
19:18I just feel
19:20that we are the same.
19:22When we break up,
19:24we break up.
19:26We don't go back.
19:28Why did you open the topic
19:30that you want to break up?
19:32How can we do that?
19:34No one asked us
19:36to do that.
19:38I don't want to do that.
19:40For others,
19:42what happens in a relationship
19:44is that you test
19:46your love for each other.
19:48You are always chasing each other.
19:51Sometimes, it's scary.
19:53It's like a dare.
19:55That's what I experienced when I was young.
19:57That's a long time.
19:59It's just close to your time.
20:01Don't say
20:03that your time is far away
20:05because it's just close
20:07to your time.
20:09Right?
20:11I got back to her right away.
20:13I saw your other girlfriends
20:15sitting there.
20:17I thought you were the one sitting there.
20:19No, I'm just kidding.
20:21But that day,
20:23it was like a dare.
20:25Actually, there are other girls
20:27who do that.
20:29I don't want to do that anymore.
20:31I want to win her back.
20:33But you didn't mean that.
20:35No.
20:37What's scary is
20:39when the girl or the boy
20:41gets used to it,
20:43that's what's scary.
20:45There's no going back.
20:48At that time,
20:50I don't want to do that anymore.
20:52I said, I don't want to do that anymore.
20:54At that time,
20:56she lost her time
20:58because she was focusing on her career.
21:00Because when you were young,
21:02you were so cute when you broke up.
21:04Now, they're working.
21:06How old were you when you matured?
21:08It was in 2022.
21:10I was 23 years old.
21:12Abby, did he tell you
21:14something to get you back?
21:17What did he tell you?
21:19Since he knows
21:21that I want to settle,
21:23he told me that
21:25he's going to propose
21:27on the birthday of the following year,
21:292023.
21:31On his birthday?
21:33Why is it your birthday?
21:35He said it's special.
21:37So he told you
21:39what his plan was?
21:41Yes.
21:43And he didn't do it?
21:45Of course, you prepared.
21:47Yes, I have a case.
21:49No,
21:51because he didn't go home
21:53to Pampanga that time.
21:55He didn't come at all.
21:57It was also Holy Week at that time.
21:59So he didn't allow
22:01to go home.
22:03Did you know that he might surprise you?
22:05Because you know that on that day,
22:07he's going to propose.
22:09So you know that nothing will happen.
22:11If he told you
22:14that he's going to propose,
22:16did you talk about it?
22:18Yes, we did.
22:20We also attended
22:22a wedding expo.
22:24What?
22:26Wedding expo?
22:28That's where you can choose suppliers
22:30of food,
22:32and other things.
22:34Yes, we were there.
22:36I was with my mom,
22:38we did food tasting.
22:40She's the president
22:42of OPM, O Promise Me.
22:44O Promise Me?
22:46How did you feel, mommy?
22:48Of course, you're excited when you do food tasting.
22:50Of course, it's free to eat.
22:52Is it free?
22:54When did he tell you about the wedding?
22:56We talked about it.
22:58Supposedly, this year, August.
23:00That's it!
23:02Abby is going to get married!
23:04Abby is going to get married!
23:06At that time,
23:08did your relatives know?
23:11No, they didn't.
23:13But your ex-boyfriend's family
23:15probably already knew.
23:17I'm not sure.
23:19He's not close to his family.
23:21He's close to his siblings,
23:23but not totally
23:25like us.
23:27But Abby, how are you now?
23:29I'm okay.
23:31I'm happy for him
23:33since he has someone new.
23:35Really?
23:37It's been 8 years.
23:40When did the relationship end?
23:42Last year,
23:44May 30.
23:46May 30, 2023?
23:48Yes, 2023.
23:50How did you close the relationship?
23:52Just through a video call.
23:54Just through a video call?
23:56Yes.
23:58The following day,
24:00he went home
24:02because I was already pregnant.
24:04Wait, that's too much.
24:06It's been 8 years,
24:08you don't deserve to have a relationship
24:10even for a day.
24:12But he went home the following day.
24:14So we talked.
24:16At first,
24:18it was okay for me
24:20because he'll grow
24:22if I become toxic to him
24:24or become a lesson for his career.
24:26It's okay, I'll let him go.
24:28But when he sunk in
24:303 days after the breakup,
24:32I was really devastated.
24:35I was really crying
24:37because I wasn't eating.
24:39My mom felt sorry
24:41for me
24:43because that's what happened to me.
24:45Did you think
24:47you'll get back together?
24:49I tried to talk to him
24:51at that time
24:53if we can still talk
24:55if we can still get back together.
24:57But he was already firm
24:59at that time.
25:01Abby, why did you say
25:03Because
25:05there was a factor
25:07that he became jealous
25:09because he entertained me.
25:11You're just friends,
25:13right?
25:15Yes, but
25:17on the perspective
25:19I don't want to invalidate
25:21his feelings.
25:23Of course,
25:25in those 8 years,
25:27it's not impossible that we didn't fight.
25:29So if I became toxic
25:32to him at that time,
25:34it's okay for me.
25:36But when I realized
25:38that he won't come back.
25:40How did you support
25:42your mom?
25:44At that time,
25:46I talked to him
25:48because he was already suffering
25:50and I was hurting
25:52what he was feeling.
25:54Of course, as a mother.
25:56He was just crying
25:58and sometimes he couldn't eat
26:01and he had anxiety.
26:03So at that time,
26:05I talked to him that I'm just here.
26:07Of course,
26:09it hurts.
26:11If he's hurting, I'm hurting more
26:13because I'm a mother.
26:15He's just one
26:17and he doesn't have a father yet.
26:19That's why it's so hard.
26:21That's why I said
26:23you never know,
26:25if you really come back,
26:27but if you're not
26:29ready to accept,
26:31just give the tissue to your mom.
26:37Did he reach out to you?
26:39Because you've been together for a long time,
26:41right? He always comes to your house.
26:43Did he get closer
26:45to the two of you?
26:47The ex?
26:49Did he call you or talk to you?
26:51Yes, he talked to me.
26:53At that time, because I felt sorry for my son,
26:55I talked to him.
26:58Did he come back?
27:00Yes, because that's what happened to my son.
27:02Did you talk to your ex?
27:04Yes, but I couldn't do anything.
27:06He really didn't want to.
27:08Because it might happen again
27:10and again.
27:14You know, for a parent,
27:16it's really hard to see
27:18your son heartbroken.
27:20It's really painful.
27:22You're kidding, your mom didn't want to
27:24at first, right? She didn't want to see her ex for two years.
27:26And now, she's talking to him
27:28about coming back.
27:30It's rare to hear that, right?
27:32For example, when we're on a break,
27:34your parents say,
27:36leave him alone, it's not okay.
27:38But your aunt...
27:40Abby, when did you start
27:42accepting that
27:44he's gone
27:46and he won't come back?
27:48And your life story will be different.
27:50When I started going to therapy.
27:52You went to therapy?
27:55Good for you.
27:57Because it's really bad.
27:59So the feeling of anger
28:01and grief is over.
28:03Then you came to...
28:05I started seeking
28:07professional help.
28:09And then the acceptance, of course.
28:11You're there now.
28:13And I accepted it when I found out
28:15that he legalized the new one.
28:19That's okay.
28:21No, Abby shouldn't be sad.
28:24If he's happy, I'm happy.
28:26Yes.
28:28Abby is very mature.
28:30The peace of mind,
28:32the state of peace of Abby,
28:34that's more important.
28:36Abby, what did you learn
28:38in those 8 years with the ex?
28:40A lot.
28:42But the main thing is
28:44to have proper communication
28:46and to learn
28:48to compromise and to understand
28:50both sides.
28:52We don't understand each other.
28:54We always clash.
28:56Abby will be happy
28:58if you meet our searchers.
29:00Now you have communication.
29:02I hope so.
29:04Are you open to meet
29:06with new friends?
29:08Yes.
29:10Did you have a relationship after?
29:12No, but we talked.
29:16But you forgave yourself
29:18for everything that happened.
29:21She's super forgiving.
29:23If we become friends
29:25in the future, it's okay.
29:27She's a big part of my life.
29:29You can't lose her.
29:31You forgave her too.
29:33Yes, I forgave her.
29:35That's why it's great
29:37to have struggles in life.
29:39It's important
29:41that we don't neglect them.
29:43We won't stay there for long
29:45but we'll get up and fight.
29:47That's why Abby is ready.
29:51This is it, Abby.
29:53It's time to meet our searchees.
29:55Let's start with Searchee No. 1.

30:27Ash, are you shy?
30:29Seriously?
30:31Why are you here?
30:33How many girlfriends does Rav have?
30:35How many girlfriends?
30:37Two.
30:41Do you have a pick-up line
30:43for Abby?
30:45Abby,
30:48are you ice?
30:50Why?
30:52Is it okay if I crush you?
30:54Crush you?
30:56It's like
30:58mommy kissed him
31:00on the pick-up line.
31:02Because Rav is so handsome.
31:04Is it okay if I kiss you?
31:06If you're crushed by ice,
31:08don't do it on the wall.
31:10Maybe it means
31:12crush the one you like.
31:14Oh, it's crush.
31:17Crush is love.
31:19We miss you, Vong.
31:21Thank you, Rav.

31:35I'm 26 years old.
31:37I'm the singing social media manager
31:39of Sorsogon.
31:41Singer?
31:43Sorsogon.
31:45It's just a sample.
32:15It's just a sample.
32:17It's just a sample.
32:19It's just a sample.
32:21It's just a sample.
32:23It's just a sample.
32:25It's just a sample.
32:27It's just a sample.
32:29It's just a sample.
32:31It's just a sample.
32:33It's just a sample.
32:35It's just a sample.
32:37It's just a sample.
32:39It's just a sample.
32:41It's just a sample.
32:44Abby,
32:46do you know what kind of animal I am?
32:48No, why?
32:50Frog.
32:52Why?
32:54You have a frog in you.
32:56I like the frog in you.
32:58I thought Mico was saying
33:00that I'm a frog.
33:02Kim is making fun of you.
33:04I don't like the frog in you.
33:06It's cute.
33:08You have a frog in you.
33:10Abby,
33:12out of 10,
33:14what's your score?
33:166.
33:18Mami is not smiling.
33:20She's smiling
33:22when she's singing.
33:24Thank you so much, Mico.
33:26Now, let's meet
33:28searcher number 3.
33:30Reveal search sheet number 3.
33:34What's up, Badlang people?
33:36I'm Erish, 26 years old.
33:38Your loyalty man of Bulacan.
33:41Erish.
33:43Erish, hi.
33:45What's the name of Bulacan?
33:47Loyal Seaman of Bulacan.
33:49Loyal Seaman.
33:51He's a seafarer.
33:53He's a loyal seaman.
33:55How many trips have you been on, Erish?
33:57I've been on 3 ships.
33:59What's the farthest place you've been to?
34:01Brazil and Venezuela.
34:03Wow,
34:05that's beautiful.
34:07Erish has companions.
34:10When Fortina opened,
34:12Erish's family was so strong.
34:14Of course, they have support.
34:16Let's ask Mami Jacqueline.
34:18How was it
34:20when you saw our search sheet?
34:22Oh, you don't have a pick-up line, Erish.
34:24Pick-up line first, Erish.
34:26Abby, I hope we're just stars.
34:28Why?
34:30So it's only between you and me.
34:32There you go.
34:34Between you and me.
34:36Abby is so cute.
34:38I think Tita likes her more.
34:40Actually, Tita likes her more.
34:42Tita, who do you think
34:44will be chosen by Abby?
34:46I think
34:48number 3.
34:50Why?
34:52Abby seems to agree.
34:54They're both
34:56tall.
34:58Abby likes tall people.
35:00She's a basketball player.
35:02But because she's a seaman,
35:04she's a seafarer.
35:07Abby also wants to sail
35:09because she wants to try her HRM course.
35:13She can share
35:15her experiences.
35:17That's what's common
35:19to them, sailing.
35:21Who do you think is kind to the three of them?
35:25I think
35:27number 1.
35:29Raf, the shy boy.
35:31Why? Because his hat is in the middle?
35:33No.
35:35He has two hairs.
35:37And he has dimples.
35:39Okay.
35:41He's kind, but he's just like
35:43Tadhana.
35:45Do you have any questions for Abby?
35:47Good luck.
35:49Go, Abby.
35:51Does the decision
35:53of getting married depend on
35:55perfect timing or perfect person?
35:57Perfect timing.
35:59Does getting married
36:01depend on perfect timing
36:04or perfect person?
36:06For me,
36:08perfect timing.
36:10Why?
36:12Because Tadhana
36:14is perfect timing.
36:16It's like
36:18it's already set
36:20what our future will be.
36:22It's like destiny.
36:24Destiny, yes.
36:26Destiny.
36:28The timing is important.
36:30It's like Ralph.
36:33For me,
36:35perfect timing.
36:37Why?
36:39Because I feel like there's no
36:41perfect person.
36:43Perfect timing because
36:45according to John Steenbeck,
36:47Wow!
36:49John Steenbeck?
36:51If the time is right,
36:53it happens.
36:55So,
36:57it's really destiny.
36:59Is John Steenbeck your friend?
37:01He's my neighbor.
37:03That's why.
37:05You fooled me.
37:07I just believe
37:09in life,
37:11if the seal is broken,
37:13do not open.
37:15That's true.
37:17That's true.
37:19Thank you, Mico.
37:21Perfect timing too
37:23because there's no perfect person.
37:25For me, perfect timing too
37:27because when it comes to getting married,
37:30you have to be financially stable, emotionally stable,
37:32and if you really like the person,
37:34you'll be the perfect person
37:36for her.
37:38That's right.
37:40That's a good answer.
37:42John Steenbeck is smart.
37:46Abby,
37:48who will you give
37:50a great plan?
37:52The one I chose,
37:54the reason is
37:56Are you excited?
37:58Okay, Abby.
38:00The stability
38:02and certain factors
38:04that I have to consider.
38:06That you're considering.
38:08It's number 3.
38:10Number 3!
38:12Do you agree?
38:14What will you say, auntie?
38:16Do you agree, auntie?
38:18I agree.
38:20Bet the bet.
38:22Do you know that
38:25there's no root for Abby's goodness.
38:27Go for it, Ralf, Mico.
38:29There's still hope.
38:31Second question, Abby, go.
38:33If you're planning
38:35a future with your ex,
38:37will it change
38:39if you're with someone else?
38:41Huh?
38:43If you're planning
38:45a future with your ex,
38:47will it change if you're with someone else?
38:49Oh.
38:51It's like the changes that happened
38:54in your past
38:56to your present.
38:58There's a side comment.
39:00What is it, Bella?
39:02It's painful if
39:04your plans are based on the past.
39:06It's painful.
39:08You're the one who did the food tasting
39:10of the chocolate cake.
39:12Chocolate cake?
39:14I know someone, Bella.
39:16I know someone.
39:18They're the one
39:20who looked at the house,
39:22and the house was different.
39:24Who's that?
39:26It reached that level.
39:28Let's hide it in the name.
39:30Yes.
39:32Don't.
39:34It's good that Abby didn't reach that level.
39:36Let's go for Mico.
39:38Maybe it will change.
39:40Because it really depends
39:42on the person.
39:44You need to talk about the future.
39:46You need to talk about the present.
39:48What do you want to do?
39:51Because
39:53what Miss Bella said,
39:55if you're going to do that
39:57to someone,
39:59if you're going to do
40:01your plans to your ex
40:03to someone else.
40:05You're going to do it to your present.
40:07It's painful.
40:09It will change.
40:11It will change.
40:13Thank you, Mico.
40:15What about Erish?
40:17For me, yes.
40:19I'm the type of person who
40:21when I'm in love,
40:23I'm willing to compromise
40:25where I'm comfortable
40:27and where my partner will be happy.
40:29It's possible that the plans will change.
40:31Thank you, Erish.
40:33What about Ralph?
40:35It's the same as number 3.
40:37You don't want it, Ralph?
40:39But his voice is low.
40:41Let's give him a chance.
40:43Let's give him a chance to explain.
40:45Explain it, Ralph.
40:48Explain it, Ralph.
40:50Why you, Ralph?
40:52Why will it change?
40:54Because
40:56like what he said,
40:58it really depends on the person
41:00because our feelings really change
41:02to the people.
41:04So exactly like
41:06we're showing to the people
41:08for example,
41:10there's a person
41:12we see qualities in him
41:14that we won't like
41:17so it will really change
41:19for me.
41:21It depends on the person
41:23and the person you're with.
41:25It's also true.
41:27Number 2 also said it.
41:29And number 3.
41:31There are different explanations.
41:33Yes!
41:35Let's ask Mami first
41:37before Abby.
41:39Mami, who do you think?
41:41Who has the best answer?
41:43Nice one, Bella.
41:45It's still number 3.
41:47It's still number 3.
41:49It's still number 3.
41:51It's still number 3.
41:53Why Mami?
41:55Why Mami?
41:57Because what she said is right.
41:59What she said is right.
42:01Don't get confused.
42:03Don't get confused.
42:05You know, if the mother really likes it,
42:07the mother really likes it, right, Bella?
42:09Mother's nose bust.
42:11That's it, number 3.
42:14That's it, number 3.
42:16Let's ask Abby.
42:18Will you follow Mami's suggestion
42:20or does your heart beat differently?
42:22Who will you give the green flag?
42:241, 2, or 3?
42:26There are 1's here.
42:28This time, I will listen to Mami.
42:30Number 3.
42:32She listened to Mami.
42:34Number 3.
42:36So there are 2 green flags.
42:38It's Erish.
42:40And first,
42:42Abby, for the searches you didn't choose,
42:44meet Ralph.
42:52Hello.
42:54Good luck on your journey
42:56in love life.
42:58Nice meeting you.
43:02And here's another search
43:04you didn't choose.
43:06Search number 2.
43:08Nico in my heart.
43:12Hi, Abby.
43:14Hope you're doing well.
43:16And I hope you're happy
43:18always.
43:20Erish is kind.
43:22Nice to meet you.
43:24Thank you, Nico.
43:26Say hi to John Stein.

44:22when I was really down.
44:24And sorry

45:05repeat what my son
45:07said to me.
45:37I love you.
