So Paolo's first batch of game plan, which is a sports show, first batch is making ya. Yas and Rufi. Then second batch was me, Paulo Bijonis, and Mon Castro. But Paolo A, Abrera, would still be hanging out with us, because his friend producers. So crush it. Oh, ngaabut kayo. Hindi ka me ngaabut. Hindi. Maka iba m batch kami. Pero tu matamba sa office. Uh-huh. I friends nya.

So, parang hidisha seriously around everyone. Ibik Sabine, just everybody admired him. He rode a motorcycle, he wore tight jeans and black shirts. Dark, tall enhanced. So dark hands. So that's how it started, na parang. I was actually telling them, if only I could get the chance to be with this guy. As in makis kusha or something. And I'm very conservative, not kiki pa date ng bass. Catholic race, etc. So, parang mea jumpi dinam nindi dinam na ko yung.

SPEAKER_01 5:50

SPEAKER_02 5:58

No, it was just an a job opportunity. A job opportunity. Ah, nung nahita mola. Yes.

SPEAKER_00 6:10

Yes, yeah. And I was like thinking, girl, kessa dun sa guy. My gosh. I'm like, are you kidding me? Is this the same guy? Like, oh my god, I'm not going to be able to do it. Oh my god, is this the same guy? As in, he was so much. As in.

Kili ki legili ki ng. No, kili ki lig. So asin ganung level ng pak crush. So paran isip ka. I mean, what are the chances? I've got this huge crush on this guy. Are you guys the same age? No, Paula's four years older. Okay. How old were you guys? Oh my god. 21? I was maybe 20. I started at 20 and maybe he was 24. And then I graduated from school 21 and he was 25. We got married. I was 26 and he turned 30. So a few years, but there, I figured, I mean, it's like having a crush on an artista, and he was an artista at that time too. So parang, when I found out that he actually liked me also. How? So, ngligawan, anoin. Like, how did it become beautiful? There was this one time that everybody was supposed to go out. Okay. All the producers, tapasun magi inuman, and gin yang, but suddenly everybody wasn't available. But I swear to God, that it's not like an engineer tung moment na to, although I had thought about it before. Kamila n paolo ang natuai go mimik together. Asin like that. Oh, again, again. Yes, I'm not sure. I figured if I was gonna risk one Lunde moment in my life, this is it and it's gonna be worth it. Correct. So brah, I might never get this chance again. Oh my god. I'm gonna go for it. So the bust for me, but I just liked him so much. Right. Who would have thought that he would be the perfect guy for me? Has tampered my ugale in so many ways, has calmed me in those moments when I was so my personality is always so explosive. But he was really the perfect foil for me. And this guy na I was risking, I don't care what people think, it's just because you're so handsome and that's all I think of you, and you're so sexy, and you're but he was everything and more. And good friends would tell me.

SPEAKER_02 10:14

So brand. Thank you, girl. I'm pretty sure that you already know that.

SPEAKER_01 10:29

SPEAKER_02 10:30

Yung sense of humor grabbe impeccable timing. And I see that we witness that every time. Imagine being able to experience that 24-7. And the other versions of you, ate. You're so witty. One of the things I admire about you. And I'm sure si kuya pao marame pa shangba sasabe. Na hing d namin na experience. That's only he gets the experience. Yes. You guys birthday episode. But I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_01 11:18

So yeah, that was our love story. But how did how did it progress after that? Like, Shempara kisa it could have gotten awkward after that kiss, daba. So, like what? Like, when did you okay, so another? Official. At that time, I'm sure hindi din pa so yun nah. But intelligent, like, I need to know.

SPEAKER_00 11:38

I think we kind of talked about it. Tapas pag dating nalang namin sa work the next time. So, yung host, diba. Retired na sha ng. Na hiki join lang sha. Tapus na kiss ka me in front of everybody. Parang hai, pero kalma lang hai bi mg tasbe. Tas sobram na shak yung iba, including his best friend, a girl, N D C J. Okay. Na sobra shang na shak tas para they felt parang we give miklang ta yu da pat ng salba do. Idi na k mi pdomateng, pa yang nita. Ngbi baso na k. I mean, nini ba so lips to lip. What happened? So people got sort of upset and they felt like upset.

SPEAKER_02 12:14

Yun alamo yung it's a nok to remember ng sinabi. Mw na oi crush. Join the club. A nong sabi nung mang baba isayun na yon. Andung na ging tingin ni la sa yo.

SPEAKER_01 12:26

Like bago kas iko yung pina kabango sakal. Mars pani saying join the club, is also saying get in line. Get in line exactly.

SPEAKER_00 12:46

I don't know. It was just one girl, yung and a girl best friend yin time, who got really upset. I think everybody just felt confused. What happened? So blung walk, but this ni wula kaming pasabi, walang abiso, walang nathing. I don't think he ever told anybody that he liked me. But at least I told others.

SPEAKER_01 13:08

But you guys were messaging after that until the day you guys saw each other again? Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 13:13

Because the kiss made it official. Yes, yes. Exactly that. So walang liga one, walayung normal na liga w ligao. And parang suddenly we were like, oh my gosh, are we really a couple? Or was that just a one-time thing also? Parang sharp mejo confused n kame. This param si paula parang go na mana ho. Go din nama na ho. Go ng ho. Go dinam. Go. And then people got kind of like derailed a little bit. What happened? And I don't blame them. But looking back, napalong ni wula man lang coming, abiso, ni wala si lang inkling, etc. One time I said I had a crush on the colour. Like a setup to Walla, yeah, wala, this is big.

SPEAKER_01 14:06

It wasn't like, what did we miss? Yeah, exactly that. I'm sure it was that.

SPEAKER_00 14:10

Yeah, exactly. That's so paranormal. After that, parang mejunaka explain and explain it, mejun karun. How funny that is. Yeah. So paran after non-wala no masilan choice. Until we started all started going out again as friends. And I understand now that I'm talking about it, I understand how they felt kind of blindsided about it. At the same time, we actually really didn't owe them anything, also. In terms of our relationship, it's not a good thing. Super shook talagasila. Super shook. So that's how it all started, and I guess the rest is history. It's been really good so far. And it's our 25th anniversary this year. Oh my gosh, silver. Do you plan on like celebrating that? I think we're trying to get somebody to give us a blessing. To try to get a priest to give us a blessing, and then we'll have a simple celebration with the family. Nothing big, walang renewal of vows or anything like that, but something simple, but I was telling Pao. It's really something I want us to commemorate. Yes. 25 years now. Love, right?

SPEAKER_01 15:13

What year did you guys get married? 2001. Oh my.

SPEAKER_00 15:22

Yeah, yeah. Wow. So 25 years later, so in love.

SPEAKER_02 15:25

SPEAKER_00 15:39

Figure out kung.

SPEAKER_01 15:40

We were a love team. Saklik. Saklick. Okay. If you remember.

SPEAKER_02 15:47

So this is your yung show mo the moment na na ging artista ka. First show ma to Mars.

SPEAKER_01 15:52

Yeah, yeah. First na I guess na Mars.

SPEAKER_02 15:56

Okay. Yeah. So ka ka saalang literal from Australia to here, so it kautong osi girl.

SPEAKER_01 16:02

Yeah, like my accent was Celtic. And like you watching pao in a commercial, Drew so me na commercial. Tapos. Unlike you, na la lokang parang wao in in real life. At the time, Mars, Hindi kusha type. He's not my type. I never thought I'd end up with a Filipino. Really? I always thought I'd end up with, I don't know, like some Aussie, I guess. Okay, okay. Like I or some foreigner, but I never thought I'd end up with a Filipino. You've never had a boyfriend before. I've never had a Filipino boyfriend. Oh, but you've had an Australian boyfriend. Sorry, I did, but a one month long yon. Hindi counted Marshall. Hindi counted Mars. One month long yun so Hindi and counted Mars. Yes, Mars. But yes, Mars. First, like Filipino boyfriend that lasted more than a month. And I never thought I'd get married to one. Okay. But ang nah katawa mungga Mars. Ako yung, I guess you would say malandidito. So ako yung dada moves, Mars. Okay, Mars? Yes, Mars. How? Hindi kwa sh type no because eventually when I got to know him, that's when I started falling for him, Mars. And then when I would see him next to his colleagues, um, well, first of all, you nangdamovsko. Like my message kame, tina wag nya hung little sister. Little sis, um I am not your little sis. Are you an explanation? That could be true.

SPEAKER_02 18:07

Uh uh.

SPEAKER_01 18:11

But yeah, so at first I was like, did he just No, I'm not his little sister. Um we were a love team. Love team, we were a love team. It wasn't until Mars, Madame Chang isang friend nang gusto magda move saaken. Sine yon. Sisid. Ah! Totulai totulai. So C Drew was supposed to be tulai.

SPEAKER_00 18:37

Sino Sisid.

SPEAKER_01 18:39

Oh Yes! He was supposed to be the tulai. Tapo sang ending.

SPEAKER_02 18:52

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 19:07

I have to think. But I mean, like, Sid was super duper sweet. There was nothing not to like about him. It's just nain laptop. Give us a like a. Eventually, Joe and I, I guess, kind of told each other not weird. It was a night out Music 21. And I took the opportunity, kin miss kusha. Sorry, dal wang besin. There was one in Wasabi. Do you remember Wasabi? Yes, in ri in Green Belt. Oh, nde sa male, makati. So, anyway, gum y mikame, I tried kissing him there. I tried. And we kissed. Shadow forward.

SPEAKER_02 19:55

How do you know na na turn off shasah yoga? It's a good friend. Little sis, what's that?

SPEAKER_00 20:04

Little sis.

SPEAKER_01 20:05

Little sis. And then it got awkward. It got awkward. And then the next time was in Music 21. And then on a different day.

SPEAKER_00 20:14

On a different night.

SPEAKER_01 20:15

And then this time it was a mutual thing. So, I think it's not a good thing. I don't remember much about that wasabi night. All I remember and I don't drink. So don't it's not because it's not because I was drunk. I don't drink.

SPEAKER_02 20:45

Fully aware.

SPEAKER_00 20:46

Fully aware.

SPEAKER_01 20:53

But because I thought that he liked me. I guess I was getting cues that made me feel like he liked me. But I guess I was being too straightforward and turned him off.

SPEAKER_00 21:03

Maybe you wanted to make the first move, but I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_01 21:06

Did he say anything about it after? Like about that. And then I guess eventually, because we liked each other. I guess not off Langshai in that moment. Because I think we're not like Malanti Batal, but shagan yang. I guess it didn't quite match up to what he knew of me. And then eventually, music 21, and then that time it was a mutual kiss. And then after a while, there was that understanding. But Mars, I yuko yung lang. Like I wanted to know what we were. Yes. And so eventually, after a time, because I shame dip de ayukha yung parang, okay, yeah, we can just casually kiss. I mean, you know no man, I'm wholesome deba Mars. So eventually there was one time we were driving home, he was dropping me off, and that is Binibikan kushanang silent treatment. And then he was like, Okay, what's wrong? And I said, Well, I just wanna know what we are to each other. What this is. And he was like, well, I'm glad you asked. Because I'm ready. Oh.

SPEAKER_02 22:14

Yes, Mark.

SPEAKER_01 22:18

So yung yung kata i bang love story na mini Mr. Adalyano. Yes, yes. What were his apprehensions?

SPEAKER_00 22:23

I mean, he's an older guy.

SPEAKER_01 22:25

I think it was You obviously like him so much. Well, one, I guess because he thought I was young. And then second, yinya no offsha because akalin yahmalindi bato bakekha nak ki bang kisa.

SPEAKER_00 22:38

So since then. Oh my gosh, we'll find out. So, like how and then you guys got together how many years before you guys got met? Ten years.

SPEAKER_02 22:53

We were together.

SPEAKER_01 22:54

And then we didn't start traveling on our own as a couple until we were together for five years. I waited till I finished college because I thought makpa'al match, I can go on this trip now with my boyfriend of five years. Na hindi pin naman ho pinayaga. And so I was like, before that, we would go on trips together with my mom or with titoaga. And we would all sleep on the same bed. That's so funny. But it wasn't until our fifth year and I had finished college that we went on a solar trip. And my mom also didn't want to allow. But for me, it was a decision that I was so sure of, and I really just put my foot on because I was like, mom, see gurna money you can trust, Drew and I. It's been five years, and if you're afraid that we might do something, do something, you won't approve of it, we don't need to go to Barakai to do something. You know, so and of course my mom was like, that you guys are staying in the same room. I'm like, mom, even if I try to explain to them that I'm a virgin, explain because they're not gonna believe it. So you just have to trust me. And of course, I didn't want to break my mom's trust. So I went on that trip, even though alam ko la bag sakal obanya and that was the start of Drew and I starting to travel together. And when we started traveling together, oh wow, our relationship really, really bloomed after that. We got to know each other so much deeper. Oh na bong.

SPEAKER_02 24:38

Of course.

SPEAKER_01 24:39

But when it was just the two of us, and when I guess when we had the trust and we could just enjoy our trips together. Yes.

SPEAKER_02 24:56

Some people would even like ask you na, o mi lika, aho, o yung na mo, daming kweding mg yare.

SPEAKER_01 25:02

Kasiang. Balikti din Mars. Like the parents can put pressure on their children. Oh, mami lika, si gay, umaliska, indika na kweding mmito. Even if their kids are of age. Right, right.

SPEAKER_02 25:22

10 years boyfriend and girlfriend, and then when did you guys decide to get married? Nah. Um we Or was it because, wow, we've already celebrated our tenth year.

SPEAKER_01 25:39

Why did you feel that? First time din lung nya sa Paris. Sir, bit bit lang nya yung sing sing until he found a place na. Okay, it looks nice here. Tapas kung san pa nya ba. Ayo ko pang kumun.

SPEAKER_00 26:45

So you don't even have that.

SPEAKER_01 26:47

No, that particular moment. But we were able to get other pictures from that trip. Okay. But yeah. And the rest is history. Now you guys are happily married with five children. Five kids.

unknown 26:58

Wow.

SPEAKER_00 27:03

Sobra, sobra. First love never dies. And joa si vijin ng.

SPEAKER_01 27:13

So you really have a colourful life.

SPEAKER_02 27:17

Yes.

SPEAKER_01 27:18

Because to begin with, you had Nathan.

SPEAKER_02 27:20

Yes. At twenty two. At twenty-two. Yes. And then of course I got married. Yung time na yung kasimmas sa sabi ko talagana parang hindi ya ho ready for marriage. It was How did that even happen? How did you meet? So, see Anthony was a friend, a family friend. So six years older than I am. So ganun sha nag started. And then mg boyfriend, gan yan, and then after a while, nag break. That's the story we broke up. And then my jumatagal din yung break up. Pak ka balikan, I think that was around 2007. When we got back with each other, a month after I was pregnant. So paratal What ganon? Parang hindi pa kung mashadung nahaka adjust into like shame, ng break na eye. So itbik si bi hin mero hindi naging okay. So this giving it another chance. Nangun palang sa stage na parang se gess so boha natin tooleta ganon. And then a month after buntes parang, it was too overwhelming for me. Na parang. Hindi pa shore. Hindi pa mha sadung sigura dun. So yun na Mars. After that, 2008 I gave birth to Nathan. Weeks before giving birth, we got married. Sus states. Kasing, para hindi mag ilegitimate sinatan yung. Okay, okay. So, yeah, that's how it started, Mars, and then two, three years later, yina, he passed on. So that's what happened. And then, nung time na yon Mars, I was 26. Walanatalaga hung plano to be honest, na magasawa Mars. Like, I'm done.

SPEAKER_00 28:53

Even, I mean, you were so young. Or was it because of the experience of having to care for Anthony and all the heartbreak and the characters?

SPEAKER_02 29:00

It wasn't really more of the caring for Anthony, it was more of the marriage. Kasi hindi palashon madale. Because we were both young. I was 22, he was about 26, uh, 27, mganyan. So parang, in short, walang masha dung preparation coming into that. Parang, one of the major reasons why we got married was because of Nathan. Pero yung paka in tindi han, yung pak, yung talagang pin la no natin agusto natin tung mg yare, hindi shan na set ng ma ayos. So parang, we were both navigating it together in a way na parang ligao ligao din kame pareho. So when he passed, ang na isip kunon, hindi pa la talaga madele to be in a marriage. It's no joke. And parang diba, na rin ngana natyan sa i bang tao, ang paga a sawa i hindi biro, hindi parang kali, na pa na inita ka ilulu wamo. And all those things became real to me. Na shocks okay. Because I also realized na you know, once you're in a marriage, yun na yun. And I know from then, when I had Nathan, ito na yung buhaiko. Whatever this is, you know, this person that I married, Merod man kaming hindi pa kaha intind di han o kung anuman, iton na yon, you're gonna have to make it work, whatever it takes. Kasi, wola na talagang atrasanto. Or that wasn't something that I would consider. We had a child. So after that, asin sabiko wola ng maha ka bodul saking mg a sawa. Until. Until yun yung parang for me. Dahil wola hung plans to get married. Whindi ya kuna kiki ki pagdate. So we were doing Mars. And then dun din la ko hinah na pa ng jojoa in Mars. Favorite ka se.

Pa, to okay she parang feeling ko. The heartbreak, everything that I had to go through, they went through also. Ta si nathan kasy parang ina ang kin nila si natan. Feeling nila anak na da si natan.

So parang, now that I'm back, ta shampre antagalko rena wala sa amen dah hil maaga hung ng gasawa. Feeling ko ayunan nila hung i let go ulin. So when he proposed to me, I was like the biggest shock of my life. Kasi yang ta nung ko, ma yung kung mga magula nko. Na paha ka. Alam ni lato. Alam ni lato. Oh, siempre.

unknown 39:33

SPEAKER_02 39:36

Piru jun yung birthday. No tre. Pas o Mars. And then when I walked, I remembered it was Mimi who approached me. And she was crying. Oh. Like, o ng mic. The sparrow me, Ail Mars. And the people were like, oh yang, oh my god. I was like just dreaming everyone in the stone.

SPEAKER_01 40:10

Mimi is Mand's little sister. Yes. My one and only. My one and only baby. Mimi had one job.

SPEAKER_00 40:23

No, which was a good one. Very close.

SPEAKER_02 40:31

Everything after that was history, Mars. Yunan yung parang. Kung bagap, even for me, looking back, hindi ko din sasu kat akalay. Na you know, to be given another chance at marriage, and at, you know, falling in love again. And starting a family again. Parang, don't ko talagana realize that. She may mg agusto ka. Yeah. May mgagusto kang mg yare, but at the end of it all, it's really ultimately God's plans for you.

SPEAKER_00 41:01

Absolutely.

SPEAKER_01 41:01

And because plans will always be better than anything that you might wish for yourself. Yes.

SPEAKER_02 41:05

Because I remember when Vijay and I first started talking, ate I was in my room. I was a homebody. I don't like going out. People would tell me, Uy lung bas ka kasi mahi pag dita. Da mbi kung pa pa kila si yo bar, party, party. Diko bet. Niko bet. Bahilango series girl. Mm-hmm. Tas nagring yung phone ko. Ganon Mars. Gabile. Goblin. And Baker King. Oh my gosh. Baker King, my first ever gay drama. Na sobrang old school family drama. Na. Anak salabas. First. Ola anak nalala. Yo tasha yung anak nalak. Yung nakamala ng anon ng. Galing sa pak babek na tina pay. Pero y mga totong anak hindi na man. Na yung. Ganon? Ay, ba. Yun ngang trip kamars. She called. So parang aluma yun, when love finds you, it will really find you regardless where you are. Bim mosha kilang iforta. Ma jungun na sabai ka no.

SPEAKER_00 42:12

I think I was telling you that when Paolo and I started going. Because Paolo wasn't my only boyfriend. And then so, I think I was telling you, na parang, this one came so easily. Yung parang, hindi kohi na ilang ipaglaban, hindi ko kina ilang iprove. Na ito sobrang ohi to, parang mag isalang shaan ng yare. And it was so easy. I felt like that was the true indication that this was the one that was meant for me. Hindi ako nahira pan. It came so easily. Parang ganyan. So parang, at least in my experience, yun yun na ging reference ko na pag true love pala, or the one that's meant for you, madalilang sha. Madalilang sha. Paranggan yan. But I mean, gets gurin yungata w na pinanglab nyung. Mg rumiyo and Juliet perfect. Pero ending nong did ski nah.

SPEAKER_02 43:02

I think what you're saying ate is that me mga challenges. Hindi na lag love story, perfect pass. Alamo yun okay na okay. Agatha me, ding dadda ansa may mga pag subook, may mga ko contra, me mga hindi mga giging masaya, parase inyo. But ultimately, me mga an na feeling na pa na.

SPEAKER_01 43:22

Me smoothnessha. So you know, like when it comes to love, it might be hard to find, it might not come at the time you're looking for it or the time you want it, but when it comes, it's so beautiful. And you know, you just gotta give people grace. You can't expect others to be perfect, others can't expect you to be perfect. But it's really how you work through these challenges that show you the kind of person you are. That's true. It's like it really shows character, and I hope that this uh episode will inspire you guys to uh find your heart. To never give up. To never give us

SPEAKER_02 44:00

To be whether it's allowed your love, and you're in the middle of a situation, a parang major on the rock scale. But let's always remind ourselves.

SPEAKER_00 44:22

It's an unmatched feeling, being that in love. And I think that when Paula and I talk about our children also, you can't do that. What an amazing feeling.

SPEAKER_02 44:43

The butterflies in your stomach. The powers in your kinekina. Everything. The joy upon seeing that person's face.

SPEAKER_01 44:53

Yeah, and of course it goes beyond loving someone, but it's also feeling loved.

SPEAKER_02 45:00

Feeling secure regardless of your imperfections, your flaws, and vice versa.

unknown 45:06

Hi!

SPEAKER_00 45:07

And of course, the reality of working on your relationships. But it's the staying power di bad.

SPEAKER_01 45:51

Settle down. But we're telling you, it's good, it's fun, and yeah, if you find the love of your life, it's gonna be an amazing life.

SPEAKER_00 45:59

And we also wanted to honor our husbands. We have been so supportive of our careers as we are working in the house.

SPEAKER_02 46:08

Because they are the one stepping up and doing things that we can't do while we're here.

SPEAKER_01 46:14

And that is also why I believe we have an inner glow that comes from the love that we feel and the security that we feel from our husband. Love you. See you later. I'm so happy to be Mrs. Aureliano.
