It is based on the true story of a woman's life whom who loves too much; if she loves someone he always gives her whole heart and trust to the man she loves.
Her name was Lian, she was a native of province were I grow up also and it was in Romblon; even though she grew up in the province it did not stop her from finishing school until college with the help and support of her parents and also because of her hard work. She was a graduate of bachelor of science in Civil engineering same as I am.
I can say that she is my childhood friend since we share the same situation. When she finish her studies, she went to manila for work at the age of twenty four (24). She's been working after her graduation and working for almost 10 years now.
She start working in a small construction related company who specialized on Plumbing/Sanitary Works; there she met the first man she loved. They were in the same project but in a different company. In the first months of their relationship everything went well; but some say that the stability of a relationship is tested in every problem faced and still overcome together. The name of the man that she first love was Jun and he is 32 years old, she was told that he is single and has no family living with her parents and relatives. Lian was introduce to Jun's parent and even to his siblings, but unbeknownst to her, his relatives have covered up the whole fact that he is already a family man. But one afternoon, when Lian called Jun, a girl answered the phone she was shock at first and couldn't speak any single words. When she regained consciousness he heard that she had been cursed by the woman on the other line who introduced herself as Jun's wife. All the words that come out of the mouth of the woman who introduced herself as Jun's wife are all painful, all she knows about herself is that she is innocent. She was just a victim of deceitful people who were willing to do everything just to deceive people. After that incident, she never saw Jun never heard anything, no text or call from him. She did not bother herself and planning to break-up with him.
"They says that all men are single once they are out of their house"
After a week, Jun returned to his work and ask Lian to talk about their relationship. Jun doesn't want to break-up with her. Since we are living in modernized era they are living engage in pre-marital sex, and one thing that prevents Lian from ending her relationship with Jun is because they are working together in one project and she is still afraid to venture into the city to find another job. She choose to continue her relationship with Jun thinking that she has nothing to be proud of herself and cannot walk heads up in the project they work with once she broke up with him. After two years Lian look for another better company and manage to find one She has been hired as a QC Engineer. But still continue her relationship with Jun. Their relationship lasted for years, in their forth year Lian decided to apply work abroad, when Jun knew about it he requested to Lian to find him a job also. Lian had a hard time in finding a job abroad since she was a woman, construction related has more opportunity in middle east mostly for men. While on Jun's application, it was very easy for him because he has a lot of experienced and most qualified in the work that she had applied for him. After a month of processing documents, July 2013; Jun left the country for work abroad with Lian's help for a two year contract. While being left in the country Lian's day has come and go with a house work routine only. After a month that Jun's outside the country he made contact to Lian and all is well. Until the year 2014 came, their relationship has been tested again, she found out that he has another woman in Qatar. He always bring this woman in his place were he live. They are living as a couple in that country. Lian knows these through the help of social media account of the woman he has a relationship with. These woman was named Emma in Facebook who love to post photos and videos together with Jun. Lian decided to end her relationship with Jun. It was December 2014 when she had a last communication with Jun, and her Skype Account has been blocked including Facebook account. She decided to move on with her life. January 2, 2015 when she decided to go home with her mom and niece to their province hiding her pain. After a week of vacation she returned to manila and continue to work hiding the pain that really hurt her, she always stay in a place were she could let her tears fall from her eyes, were she can cry out the pain that killing her from inside. Days past, and month of January is almost over. She received a text from an identified number, and later on she found out that it was Jun, she really loves that person so she decided to meet up with him. After one and a half year he decided to go back home, he was given a vacation but he need to return in Qatar last week of January. He's been in a country for almost a month, but days before the date of return to Qatar he decided to meet up with Lian. After that day he never heard a single word from Jun again. Since Lian was working in a high rise building on the day of the scheduled flight of Jun back to Qatar, she watch every plane that flew away from the airport with tears thinking that Jun is riding one of those plane goin back to Qatar. She cry and cry like there is no tomorrow. After that day she started to move on, her house-work routine continue thinking that life must go on. Days past by and Lian received text again and to her surprised it was from Jun again, he did not leave the country. They talked about their situation and Lian ask if what is really going on to Jun's Life, she found out that his wife has been in a relationship with someone and having a baby from another man. He and his wife did not have a child of their own. (We can say that its his KARMA for all the things that his done to Lian). He was asking for another chance from her to start a new with Lian and to her stupidity he accepted him again without a doubt or anything, what matters to her was her loved to Jun.
Later on, Jun asked help from Lian to get a contract. He requested to Lian to estimate a plan regarding Plumbing/Sanitary and Fire Protection Works. Its was a big project, Robinson's General Trias at Cavite. He became a sub-contractor of the company where he work for almost 20 years before going to Qatar. He used Qatar as a stepping stone to become a sub-contractor in a company where he work for a long time. They are successful in getting a contract for that project. Lian was still working in her private employer while helping Jun's on paper works. Their work goes smoothly until Lian feel that there is something wrong again with Jun. In less that a year of working together there is a big changes in Jun that make her uneasy and never feel relaxed at all. She never sit back and she investigated what is happening and there she found out that he's having an another affair from a young woman in Cavite area where they have a staging area for their workers. Her cavalry started again, Lian give him a choices, he can be with Alona a woman from Cavite but she will be out of his life or her. But the man choose to be with a young woman, and live with the family of the woman. Alona was in a relationship and had a son from other man, while Lian has no child. Upon knowing that Jun choose to be with Alona she choose to move on and forget everything about the man she loves for less 7 long years..
Lian love Jun without limit, she gave her all; she even gave her full support to him in all aspect specially when it comes to financially status. But it says that not all love story has a good and happy ending like her love to Jun.
After a few months, Lian live without Jun in her life for good. She learn to mingle with her workmates after work. She never resort or did not learn any vices like alcohol and cigarettes. Sometimes she go out with them but the habit always persist, house and work routine has been a part of her daily lives. One day she was requested to be transferred on other projects. It has been months with out communications with Jun, and one day Lian saw on Facebook Account that her friend is into Mountain Hiking so, she requested to be a joiners too with her friend. She enjoy these activity and joined for another hikes and so on.
Year 2016 she is transfered in a new projects, Lian meet another workmates persons and labor who is working in the new projects. There she meet Sam 23 young man and at that time she is 30 years old, he is the second man she love. Sam is one of the security in the project since it was Shangri-La Hotel in BGC. Lian's work is not related to his work but knowing that they are working in the same project site therefore they have a chance that they will meet and see each other often. Lian never give so much attention to Sam although he is showing affection to her but later on found herself in a relationship with him. She was introduced by Sam to her sister but behind her back, her sister know everything about her brother that cannot be told to Lian. Her relationship with Sam was a short romance, before she know the truth about Sam's life she found herself pregnant already. He has no wife, never been married but he has been in a relationship with someone and has a son about a year old. Since the salary of a security guard in our country was very low, Sam cannot support her family and during his relationship to Lian; there are instances that Sam asked help from her financially. She is so generous that even if he has nothing left for herself she is still able to help others especially in the family, that includes Sam too.
Lian's has been hurt again, thinking what was wrong with her. She always love a person who is committed so somebody else, asking herself if she do not deserve to be happy.
She never give a choice to Sam, to avoid any scandal she requested to her manager to be transfer to any other projects near from the area she lives due to her pregnancy. She thinks that if they are important to him, he will choose them and live with her and their unborn child. But that, never happened. After she transfer to other project Sam never bother to checked on them even Lian give birth to their child in 2017. After she give birth to her child, her mother give message to Sam to inform him that she already give birth and if he wants to see the baby, but the reply was came from the woman he lived with. They received unwanted words, and that pushes them to never put the name of the father in the birth certificate of the baby. Lian fulfil all the obligation and responsibilities for her baby alone. She work hard, never hesitated to be assigned in a far provinces just to be paid with a high salary to support her child. Her child was raised by her parents in their province separate from her. Lian was a very admirable person as a parents who is very committed to her responsibility.
We all know that today there are many children that are not lucky to have a responsible parents, there are parents that after giving birth to a their child, they give away their children, throwing a child as if nothing.
Year 2019 she is already 33 years old, when Lian was transfer again to another project outside Manila. She then meet Mr. RBT, a 37 year old man and he was an Ex-Army. He work as a heavy equipment operator, in a company where Lian is working as a QC Engineer. Lian was sometimes a snob person that never talked to a person she never know and was not introduced to her. The eyes of Mr. RBT always follow her that makes her more conscious and uneasy and she was never happy about it. But one time Lian was instructed to go in Pampanga to meet with the Engineer that will be assigned in the Fabrication Plant there. Lian was not happy about it since she really don't like traveling in a far place. They are from south going to north even though they have service, but she doesn't have a choice she have to go there. Her supervisor was fixing the schedule of the service driver that will be assigned to her, but until she go home she never know who will be her driver. She was only advice to wait in an area where the service will pass by in the morning. Since they will be traveling from south to north she was advice to wake up and be at a waiting area early in the morning. So she wake up early and at 5 o'clock she is already in the waiting area. She waited for an hour there but the sun rise and shine already but the service hasn't arrived yet. She decided to call her supervisor, and there she know that they haven't fixed the schedule of the driver. They told Lian to wait, and few moments later she was informed that the serviced is on the way now. Moments later she received a call from an unregistered number. She answered it and it was the service driver asking if where is her location so she gave her location and she advice him that she will raised her hand once she saw that car coming. When she saw the car approaching she waived her hands and when the car stopped she immediately hopped in the car. Lian was surprised to see Mr. RBT in the driver seat, she frowned at him and kind of annoyed she asked him why you took so long. He just answered that I do not know about this trip and it so happened that I was the only available driver at the barracks, I am sleeping and they just wake me up to drive you. Lian shut her mouth after that, she never open her mouth not unless she was asked, it is impolite not to answer if someone is asking you. They have been on the trip for an hour when Lian feels of peeing, she wants to pee, she was shy but she talked to Mr. RBT that if possible they could stop in any commercial building or public toilet in which she can pee, since the weather was cold that time and she was exposed outside for long time during her wait for the arrival of the service. After that they continue to travel and that time the heavy air inside the car was lite up. Since Lian was not fond of traveling for a long hours, she sleep along the way to their destination. They reach the area and Lian finished the job given to her and its about time that they are going back to south. But before that they eat lunch together in one of the commercial center along north express way. During their trip she always caught Mr. RBT looking at her and their romance start there. Since Lian's number was given to him by office staff, he is texting Lian that night.
After that day, if Lian has to render overtime in her worked after that Mr. RBT was the one who send her home driving the service vehicle to their home. Sometimes Mr. RBT call her at night and even text, the feeling for each other has been develop an one day they were in a relationship already. They are in 3 months in a relationship when they decided to go in the Province of Lian to be able to meet her parents by her love one Mr. RBT.
At first Mr. RBT hide everything from her, he told that he was single and no family also, same story with Jun and Sam. Even though she was told by that story she didn't believe him. Lian was trying to know him better, and then she found out that he is a family man already but separated. He has one daughter living in the province of his wife, they are separated for 13 years already. Aside from that, Lian knows that he had a relationship with other woman for more that 10 years now. She is hurt again by this truth, although she prepared herself to know this truth it cause her a lot of pain again. She could not understand why the same scenario was happening to her. She is asking why! What is wrong with her, she wondering if is there no man dedicated just for her, that she will be the only loved and no one else and accept her for who she is without being deceived by them. She never reached out to Mr. RBT for days, thinking that she have to break-up with him. But Mr. RBT never stop to reach out for her, he had showed how much he loved her, he never gave up on her. She seen how Mr. RBT do all the effort for her, she remember all the wonderful things they shared together and all the good thing he has done for her. She then gave up and accept Mr. RBT again.
After 3 months in a relationship with Mr. RBT, Lian decided to resign on her job, this is to avoid any issues since they are working in the same company. She went back to Manila and looked for another job; for a month she did not work while waiting for her last pay to be released. Mr. RBT supported her financially all through out. She just supported her child from her small savings. She manage to survive somehow.
The best and good thing about Mr. RBT was he never asked money from her, it is the other way around, he gave money to Lian for her to buy some new clothes, but she is not fond of buying thing unless it was necessary. Lian always save money for in case of emergency and for her family specially for her child and Mr. RBT gave his full support to her.
Its been 1 year and 7 months already for them, being in a relationship. Its been hard for Lian since they were in an LDR for the last 7months due to Pandemic.
Lian wished was Mr. RBT will be het last man, het last love forever, but they are being tested by this Pandemic. Hopefully they can manage to survive this situation.
Long distance relationship is a very difficult situation for two people who love each other, for a couple and only few partners are able to overcome such situation. Only few couples manage to succeed this test in their relationship; it is a great challenge because it tests the stability and trust for each other.
We can say that her love was real and pure and it is only by chance that she gave her love to the wrong person, to a wrong man. In the eyes of others they may say that she is a woman who is easily deceived, but is it her fault if she loves, loving someone and seeks love. Yes, it is true to say that love is not sought because it comes naturally into human life. But sometimes for others, you need to take steps to find your destiny because not everyone in the world is born equal. There are people born who already have everything, beauty, wealth and intelligence. But what about those who are not fortunate enough to have such qualities?
Let's just pray that she will be used to being happy, stable and that he will find the person who will truly comfort and love him, if it is Mr. RBT that will make her happy. Then we wish her good luck and more power for her and God bless.
