ILANG araw nang maysakit si Kris Aquino pero pinipilit niyang mag-taping ng KrisTV at mag-shooting ng Etiquette for Mistresses at para makaipon ng konting lakas ay itinutulog niya ng isa o dalawang oras habang nagse-set up ang staff and crew sa set.
Pero nitong nakaraang weekend, hindi na niya kinaya ang schedule na shooting ng pelikula kaya ipinahinga na lang niya at panay inom ng gamot hoping na magiging maganda na ang pakiramdam niya kahapon, Lunes para makapag-taping at shooting na.
Pero hindi pa rin siya nakakabawi ng lakas dahil bandang alas diyes y media ng umaga ay nag-post siya sa kanyang Instagram account ng, “I got up to drink milk so that I can take my medicines and re-apply Vicks on my feet and put warm Japanese style socks on. Will go back to sleep.”
ALAMIN: Mga kinagiliwang Kapuso-Kapamilya tandem sa pelikula!
Pagkalipas ng ilang oras ay may follower si Kris na nagngangalang @sbaluyot, na nagkomento ng, ‘God said, ingatan mo ang sarili mo at iingatan ka but if you abused it, that’s different story may kalalagyan ka and that’s too bad. You don’t have time to listen what your body saying money-money that’s what you want. Very powerful ang pera sa iyo, sad to say. Good luck.’
Hindi pinalampas ng Queen of All Media, agad niyang sinagot.
“@sbaluyot-you deserve a reply because you are so judgmental na wala sa lugar. If I didn’t show up for work, did you think how many people in the production & the crew wouldn’t get paid? If I packed up my taping for KrisTV or my movie, how many of the staff and crew who get paid daily won’t have their salary?
“This is the truth - I am rich, my sons are provided for but I have a responsibility to those I work for & those I work with. And that is not being selfish but knowing the value of hard work & pakikisama.
“Masaya bang mag-work na ubo nang ubo & with fever? Ang LAKAS ng loob mo to judge me when your account is on private. I was raised with the right work ethics & the courage to stand by my values-judge me again when you’ve gained some of that.”
Maya-maya ay nagpaliwanag si Kris kung bakit niya pinatulan si @sbaluyot.
“Taking antibiotics, not feeling well that’s why pumatol. I was raised to respect & value my co-workers & their contributions to my success, and that means making sure all we earn & take home a salary for our families and & loved ones. I wish I had the luxury of listening to my body & giving myself 2 weeks of total rest.
“But @kristvofficial_ig is daily & #EtiquetteForMistresses is aiming for a September playdate. Kung pera lang ang motivation ko, ipinahinga ko na ‘to. U have no mortgages to pay, I have a few businesses that are already earning.
But I’m not the only one with a job at stake -- there are at least 80 people working on @kristvofficial_ig and about 120 on #EtiquetteFor Mistresses plus another 20 working personally for my sons and me.”
