“I didn’t know. I was in the dark. I didn’t know; I had no idea. God knows, ilang beses akong nag-tanong. Ilang beses akong nanghingi ng statement. Doon ko rin na-realize bakit ganoon ang reactions ni Jam,” continued Maris.
“To the public, I’m sorry that you got to see that very intimate side of me. Gano’n talaga ako ‘pag nagbigay ng pagmamahal. It was supposed to be private. It was supposed to be a private, intimate thing. I’m sad na nakita ‘yun ng tao,” she said.
“And truly sorry for those people who supported me for 10 years. Alam nila ang lahat. Pinaghirapan ko ang career ko mapunta lang kung saan ko gusto. Ginawa ko lahat. Pinaghirapan ko lahat sa tulong nila. Nagagawa ko ‘yung mga gusto ko. I don’t know where I’m gonna go. I don’t know saan ako pupunta.” Maris said.
“Yung dignidad ko, hindi ko na mahanap. Whenever I go out, whenever I walk, I feel like I’m a naked woman walking. Hindi ko alam anong gagawin ko.” said Maris.
“I’m so embarrassed and I’m sorry that you get to see that. But I can assure you, tuloy pa rin ako. Tuloy pa rin ang laban. Magta-trabaho pa rin ako kahit nahihirapan. Hindi pa rin namamatay yung apoy sa puso ko.” Maris said.
“I’m still looking for that little girl inside of me. It’s hard to look for her now. But someday, I get to find her and I will be able to hold my shadows.” she continued.
“What you saw, who’s not a perfect human and far, far from being perfect, what you saw was a human being, just a human being. That’s it,” Maris ended.
