“Love magnifies purpose and defies consequence,” panimula ni Kitty sa kaniyang post.
Sen. Bato, masayang nakita ang apo
Ayon kay Kitty, naalala umano niya ang naging pag-uusap nila ni PRRD dalawang taon na ang nakalipas tungkol sa pagtatanong niya sa dating pangulo kung puwede siyang “mag-settle down” sa buhay kapag nakapagtapos na siya ng kolehiyo.
“I remember our conversation from 2 years ago, naive and idealistic—when I asked your permission if I could settle down right after college,” saad kay Kitty.
Aniya, pangarap umano niyang magsilang sa sarili niyang “Rodrigo” sa darating na panahon.
“It has always been my biggest dream to birth my own little rodrigo and as much as (i know) you loathed the idea of it, especially at that time, you respected me and told me you would support anything that gave me eternal love and joy,” pagbabahagi ni Kitty.
“2 months ago, I asked you what you wanted to see first—for me to uphold my promise, or for me to start the family I always prayed for. I told you I'd do whatever made you happier and that is how I know I love you, as you love me. These are the kinds of things we hold on to, in this life— commitment and sacrifice,” pagpapatuloy pa ni Kitty,
Ibinahagi rin ni Kitty na proud umano siyang maging anak ni PRRD.
“Proud as I am to be your baby, I am even prouder to say I grew up caring for you and protecting you. I would do it all over again, even fiercer if i could,” pagtatapos niya.
Samantala, kasalukuyan pa ring nasa kustodiya ng International Criminal Court (ICC) sa The Hague, Netherlands si PRRD matapos siyang dakipin ng mga awtoridad at dalhin sa nasabing lugar noong Marso, 2025.
