00:00It's hard, right?

00:01Yeah.

00:02That kind of situation.

00:03You didn't become friends, right?

00:05We're just civilians.

00:07Why did Michelle and you become friends?

00:10How did that happen?

00:11Their dynamics are different.

00:12Right?

00:13Because some people don't cross the line between being friends and being allies.

00:19I don't know if I'm right, but as I see you and Michelle, you're like friends.

00:23Yes.

00:24Even Michelle and Regine, they're like friends.

00:26Yeah, they see each other, they eat together.

00:28Yeah, even their children.

00:30Even in the picture, they're happy together.

00:32They're smiling.

00:33Yeah.

00:34How did that happen?

00:35It didn't happen right away.

00:38Of course, we went through pain.

00:41But because Michelle and I talked, we said to each other,

00:44you know, life is short.

00:47If we fight, our children's status won't be good.

00:52So let's be friends, right?

00:55Who offered friendship?

00:56You or her?

00:57The two of us.

00:58That's nice.

00:59Then we agreed.

01:00You know, maybe it wasn't really our time to be friends.

01:04We were still young.

01:06After that, we were like siblings.

01:09In the end, we just became friends.

01:12Now, Regine and Michelle, I had nothing to do with them.

01:16I was just blessed with two beautiful, wonderful women who accepted each other.

01:25You know?

01:26And I remember, I have a story.

01:29When Regine was about to leave, Michelle told me,

01:32come on, you're embarrassing Regine here in Australia.

01:37Let her go so we can all meet.

01:40So when Regine got there, she said,

01:44I'm sorry, said Regine.

01:46Michelle said, no, we're family.

01:51Wow.

01:53So they're the two extraordinary people.

01:58Extraordinary.

01:59They're really different.

02:00Amazing.

02:01Forgiveness.

02:02So strong.

02:03So strong.

02:04Amazing.

02:05Forgiveness.

02:06Love.

02:07Acceptance.

02:08Yeah.

02:10Because you forgave the person, that's one.

02:12But you accepted them to be part of your life again and family.

02:16That's different.

02:17That's different.

02:20Did you see the girl?

02:22Yes.

02:23Yes, but there was a time when I saw their baby.

02:28I carried their baby.

02:30Aww.

02:31And I saw her for the first time, the girl.

02:35When did you give birth?

02:36Last year.

02:37Was the baby that big?

02:39No.

02:40How old was the baby?

02:41Was the baby one year old?

02:43One year old.

02:44I carried it.

02:45You carried it?

02:46Yes.

02:47How did you carry the baby?

02:48Of course, you talked to her.

02:51Hi baby.

02:52Aww.

02:53I'm sincere.

02:54Aww.

02:55She's angry.

02:56When I told my friends, they were even angrier than me.

03:05They said, can you do that?

03:07It's over, right?

03:08It's over.

03:09You're still there.

03:10Acceptance.

03:11Acceptance.

03:12Strong.

03:13The grief is over.

03:14The anger is over.

03:15You can do it.

03:16Do you know why you can do it?

03:18Because you can go back to being a good person.

03:21Because you're a good person.

03:22You can be yourself.

03:23Because you're really good.

03:25It's easy.

03:26It's easier to be yourself, right?

03:28Yes.

03:29And it's better if you don't have anything in your heart.

03:33True.

03:34Right?

03:35Especially with the baby.

03:36You didn't do anything.

03:37Yes.

03:38You didn't know.

03:39Isn't it different?

03:40When you're separated, you're caught.

03:41You don't want to show your children to your wife.

03:44Yes.

03:45You don't want to show your children to your wife.

03:46Yes.

03:47So that they'll all be happy.

03:48That's what I didn't do.

03:49Nice.

03:50What I said was, if it's your father's fault, it's not your fault.

03:53If he's not a good husband to me, he's a good father to you.

03:56I always tell him, don't get mad at your father.

04:00Sometimes he gets mad, but what I tell him is, don't get mad at your father.

04:04No matter what happens, he's your father.

04:06You won't be able to live without him.

04:09But let's let our children feel that.

04:12Yes.

04:13So that they'll feel bad or angry.

04:17There's a process.

04:18Right?

04:19Because they also need to feel that.

04:22Because even if he's not the husband, their father did something for them.

04:28Right?

04:29When he left, it's not just my mother who lost her husband.

04:32I also lost my father.

04:33Yes.

04:34Who was with me at home.

04:36So there's also a background.

04:37But it had an effect on him.

04:40He had anxiety.

04:43Yes.

04:44There were many times when he couldn't breathe.

04:50He said that he didn't experience what happened to his father.

04:54That's why I was so angry with him.

04:57Because if you didn't give my son the broken family,

05:01I told him that this wouldn't happen to him.

05:04I told him, what did you attack him with?

05:08He said, mommy, mommy, I can't breathe.

05:17I took him to the hospital early in the morning.

05:20There were just the two of us.

05:23When we got to the hospital, he suddenly got better.

05:26I was working.

05:29I didn't know that...

05:31When I was in the office, I knew that he was in school.

05:35Because I was giving him a pillow.

05:37But he didn't go to school for a long time.

05:40Because he was afraid that if he went out, something would happen to him.

05:46That's how he felt.

05:48It's like he had a trauma.

05:49The trauma, right?

05:50The trauma.

05:51How did you deal with it, your trauma?

05:54How was your trauma?
