Kris reveals Herbert asked for marriage then broke up with her

Sa pamamagitan ng mga linya sa ilang breakup songs ay sinariwa ni Kris Aquino ang kanyang pagkabigo sa pag-ibig sa lalaking hindi niya pinangalanan ngunit madaling hulaan kung sino.

 

Ngayong araw, February 24, ay mayroong bagong entry si Kris sa kanyang blog na With Love Kris Aquino, na ang title ay “The State of My Heart.”

 

Gaya ng titulo ng kanyang blog entry, inilahad dito ng TV host-actress ang estado ng kanyang puso ngayon na nai-relate niya sa tatlong kanta.

 

Panimula ni Kris, “If you’ve been watching Kris TV for almost 4 years now, or if you ever watched Today with Kris Aquino in the mid 90s to the new millennium, or if you watched Morning Girls in the early 2000s, then you’ll probably know I’m a lyrics freak.”

 

'Where do broken hearts go?'

 

Kalakip ng video at lyrics ng awiting “Where Do Broken Hearts Go” ni Whitney Houston, ikinuwento ni Kris kung paano niya nakalimutang maging malungkot noong Valentine’s Day at kaarawan niya—February 14.

 

Saad niya, “I was mercifully spared feeling birthday blues in the romantic sense because my mind and prayers have been focused on my brother, his leadership, safety, well being, and the path our country has to take as we grow into being a mature, responsible, peaceful democracy, strengthened with full economic stability.

 

“Nakalimutan kong maging malungkot that during my Valentine birthday, I was irrefutably SINGLE.

 

“But while in Japan UMEMOTE ako while listening to my Whitney playlist on Spotify.

 

“Where do broken hearts go? My broken heart went to according to my ever reliable Alvin [her personal assistant]…”

 

Pagkatapos nito ay inisa-isa ni Kris ang mga lugar na pinuntahan niya mula noong April 2014 hanggang nitong February 2015.

 

Paliwanag ni Kris sa kanyang pagbibiyahe nang madalas, “I traveled a lot because to quote/ paraphrase 1 of my favorite Sharon movies, Minsan Minahal Kita: ‘He made me believe, he made me believe we had a chance.’

 

“And I just wanted, more accurately NEEDED new memories to replace the few happy ones my heart was still clinging to.

 

“From my perspective, it has never been RECALLING the fights, the breakup, the disappointment over avoidable interviews that made me cry. It was remembering the happy moments that were so fleeting, but so special because they were so ‘normal.’”

 

Dito na sinimulan ni Kris ang pagbabalik-tanaw sa masasayang sandali nila ng lalaking hindi niya pinangalanan.

 

“He went into my A&A [Aquino & Abunda Tonight] dressing room on our 2nd telecast and said: ‘Ms. Aquino, may I have your number?’

 

“He brought me a cheeseburger w/ no onions, fries, and a small Coke on my birthday last year.

 

“I’ve never had that meal again from that fast food because I’m now with the opposing Pinoy Food Giant (takot mag violate ng contract) and partly because it will just never taste the same again.

 

“We watched the midnight screening of Divergent and I’ve never gone back to the cinema where we watched.

 

“He gave me this funny looking, ugly cute figurine holding a heart, and I used to have it beside my bed, and now I have it kept inside my night table drawer.

 

“He sent me a lot of Gatorade, boxes of it, and I’ve never had the sports drink again.

 

“We went to 2 Starbucks with drive through windows, and I’ve also never gone back to those places.

 

“We spoke of building a life together, actually set a time frame, in this restaurant in Greenbelt that I frequented because of their steaks and burgers, but I’ve also never eaten there again.

 

“I cut off more than 18 inches of my hair because I wanted to forget how I must have looked with hair all over my face & pillow, when he used to surprise me by waking me up and bringing me my venti nonfat latte with no foam, just because his day would be so hectic and early morning was the only time he could see me, regardless of my still being fast asleep.”

 

The proposal

 

Sabi pa ni Kris, “Broken hearts retreat to where they can be safe again, locked away for nobody to ever get too close to again…

 

“This is the first time I’ll publicly acknowledge this, because I can now recall with absolutely no bitterness or regrets…

 

“On the first Friday of April nearly a year ago during merienda, he said he was tired, he didn’t want to play games, he was tired of chasing and of running away, and he wanted to feel secure with someone he could grow old with. 

 

“He said, walang romance, walang lokohan, walang bolahan. Okay na raw ba ko to marry him kasi nga PAGOD na sya?

 

“I remember laughing and saying that was probably the least romantic proposal any woman has ever received, but because we were so similar in our weirdness, I was in agreement; I wanted to grow old with him because I knew we’d never be bored conversing, and maybe this was where God led 2 individuals who deserved a chance at life long companionship with maturity, and full acceptance of equally colorful pasts.

 

“We went separate ways because he had an appointment with an old professor he had kept close to, and I went to 6 PM Mass and prayed that this was what would be best for us.

 

“The next day he had dinner with my family, and I cried during our heart to heart talk after that first attempt at introducing him to my family. 

 

“I said I realized he never said he loved me, he was simply tired, and I didn’t want to be his version of Salonpas, Alaxan, Ben Gay, or a massage.

 

“He cried too and said he was scared, overwhelmed, afraid of being branded a ‘user’ when he has given the majority of his life to public service, and maybe we should take a step back.”

 

Kuwento pa niya, “We went to Mass together Sunday because we had made a pact that praying together will be our priority, but again we parted immediately after Mass because he had friends to meet up with…

 

“I remember going home, alone because my 2 sons were going to have dinner with James and Mic [Japes Yap and Michela Cazzola].

 

“And I prayed and said, please God strengthen us, cement our bond, and protect our peace.

 

“And I remember thinking, sana umabot sya sa point that he would be comfortable enough to let me be more a part of his world.”

 

Patuloy ni Kris, “I made the mistake of speaking about him the following night on A&A.

 

“The next day, over the phone he broke up with me, right before Bimb’s 7th birthday party.

 

“In time we healed, and became friends again. Comfortable to catch up over the phone every few weeks or so.

 

“The last time I cried about him was Christmas Eve.

 

“I remembered an earlier agreement that we had made, when he asked early in our relationship how we’d deal with the holidays, I said that my non-negotiable was Christmas Eve Mass with my family, but Christmas Day was for him & his siblings & his kids.

 

“And I went to sleep with tears quietly streaming down my face, sad that we hadn’t made it.

 

“So can I be truthful, I hibernated February 15, and listened to this song over and over.”

 

Admitting the relationship

 

Hindi man pinangalanan ni Kris ang lalaking tinutukoy niya sa kanyang mahabang paglalabas ng saloobin, madaling mahinuha na ito ay walang iba kundi si Quezon City Mayor Herbert Bautista.

 

Ito ay base na rin sa mga detalyeng isiniwalat ni Kris sa kanyang blog, na ang karamihan ay ibinahagi niya sa Instagram at sa TV shows niya.

 

Kabilang na rito ang pagbibigay sa kanya ni Mayor Herbert ng isang box ng Gatorade nang magkasakit siya, ang pagpapagupit niya ng buhok, at ang dinner nila kasama ang pamilya ni Kris.

 

Inamin ni Kris ang relasyon nila ni Mayor Herbert sa live telecast ng Aquino & Abunda Tonight noong April 7, 2014.

 

At inamin din ni Kris na kinabukasan, April 8, 2014, ay nakipagkalas din sa kanya ang actor-politician.

 

May pagkakataong nagkalamat ang kanilang samahan, ngunit ngayon ay tila nanumbalik na ang pagkakaibigan nila. —PEP
